Troubleshooting Sound In Flow/ - 21
Sound In Flow
Sound coming into the iMac system originates at the internal
microphone located in the top front area of the system, or through
an external microphone connected to the logic board.
If the sound signals originate at the internal microphone, they
travel along the long internal audio cable to connector J9 on the
A/V interconnect board. The signal is then transmitted to connec-
tor J7 on the back side of the A/V interconnect board, travels via
the short internal audio cable, and finally arrives at connector
J14 on the logic board.
If the sound signals originate at an external microphone, they
travel directly from the external microphone to the microphone
(sound in) connector on the logic board.
