HA12155NT/HA12157NT
MPX ON/OFF Switch
MPX-OFF mode means that signal from input amp doesn’t go through the MPX filter, but signal goes
through the SS circuit after being attenuated 3 dB by internal resistor. Refer to figure 5. For not cause any
level difference between MPX-ON mode and MPX-OFF mode, it is requested to use MPX-filter which has
definitely 3 dB attenuated. MPX-OFF mode offer totally flat frequency response and no bias-trap effect.
And when applying other usage except figure 5, take consideration to give bias voltage to NR-IN terminal
by resistor or so on because internal of NR-IN terminal hsa no bias resistor.

Application as for the Dubbing Cassette Deck
HA12155NT/HA12157NT series has unprocessor signal from recording out terminals during plyaback
mode. So, it is simply applied for dubbing cassette decks.
And HA12155NT/HA12157NT has three input terminal. So, it is applicable to switch the signal from PB-
EQ as shown below.
