sansa fuze line out dock制作，俗称diyLOD

Beware: I can't not guarantee you will find the diyLOD to be better sounding. If you do find it to be better sounding, good for you!

<b>What you will need:</b> 1 x original sync and charge cable for diyLOD v1. 1 x mini plug 1 x soldering iron, small tip (and some solder of course) 1 x Multimeter 1 x Super glue (diyLOD v2) 2 x Capacitors (diyLOD v2, please read v2 guide for choosing the right caps)) Optional: cables (depends on how fancy you want it to be), Ridax strain relief (diyLOD v2) <b>What you don't need:</b>

<b>As always, this is a Do-It-At-Your-Own-Risk modification.</b>

*<b>Not sure which version of diyLOD you should use?</b> In short, use diyLOD v1 if your amp has input DC filters (i.e. capacitive coupling / AC coupling). Use diyLOD v2 if your amp doesn't have them (or when you can't be sure). See the 2nd to last section on post #2 for more detail.

<b>[diyLOD v1]</b>

- original sync and charge cable mod

<b>1. Taking apart the connector.</b>

The connector is held together mainly by two hooks at the cable end of the connector (where the two holes on each side are). Those hooks shaped differently which make them a lot more difficult to take apart. 

I use the small flathead screwdriver for repairing watches to pry open the bottom side of the connector - first I force the screwdriver underneath where the strain relief goes into the connector, than I pry on each side (black arrow) till it is loose - be careful on this part as you don't want to destroy the housing before you even began the mod.

Red circles mark the hooks and green arrow is where the screwdriver goes in / force applied 

You can lift this part of the metal shielding once the whole connector is out of the plastic housing. Don't bend the metal too much or it will break.

The complete disassembly of the connector. Note: you are looking at the bottom side of the connector (pin #2, 4, 6, ... , 30)

The bottom, where the USB connections are wired.

The top, same side as the Sandisk logo is.

<b>2. Rewiring.</b>

I de-solder all the USB wires first as I like it that way (except the USB shielding that connect to the connector shielding). There is no reason to pick one color wire over the other for a particular channel - you can pick what ever way you want to solder them, just be sure to remember to solder them in the correct way when you terminate them at the other end with mini jack. It is also a good time to cut the USB cable to your desired length. I left about 4 inches of USB cable attached from the end of connector strain relief - which is about 3 inches left after I put on the mini jack. You might want to leave a bit more depends on your own preference and future usage.

Here is a sum up of what was / is during the rewiring process:

First, you want to jump pin #7 and pin #22. They are located on two different side. I jumped them with the leftover cable on the original USB cable. The reason for jumping the two pins is because it requires a small voltage (1V ~3V) on pin #7 to activate the LO mode, and it just so happens Fuze's pin #22 has 3V supply that can be utilized in this situation. Note that whether other Sandisk player has the same 3V on pin #22 is yet to know. Until we do know about it, you shouldn't use the diyLOD on any other Sandisk player besides Fuze.

Pin #7:

Pin #22: (I marked #10 and #20 red for better recognition)

Once you jump the pins, should check both the connection b/w the pins with multimeter, as well as the neighboring pins (i.e. pin #5 and #9, #20 and #24) to make sure nothing short! Measure every time you finish soldering a pin!!!

<b>A quick test</b>: To see whether you can activate LO at time point, start playing a songs on Fuze and listen to it, than insert the jumped connector in and you will notice the music is silenced (on headphone) but continue to play on the player. You will also notice the scroll wheel no longer able to control the volume. Remove the connector and everything should go back to normal. Note: Your Fuze must be in the latest firmware to perform this test. 

I pick red cable as my right channel, black as my left channel, as green as my audio ground. Note that you should also be able to use Pin #3 and 6 (USB ground) as your audio ground as well. Note: be careful on the cable length b/w the strain relief and the pins - you don't want it to come short when you try to put them back together. If you are not sure, extend the cable by wiring an extra length of wire and insulate it properly (you don't want them to short either!)

Since I didn't use the USB shielding for anything, I insulated it as well.

<b>3. Reassembly</b>

Remember to put some tape over the PCB to avoid short circuit, 

Terminate the other end with a mini jack and voila, you have yourself a diyLOD!
