    This is a High Performance 56W Audio Power Amplifier, based on the LM3876 Integrated Circuit, with great sound quality, powered by a symmetrical power supply.

    The Amplifier responds very well in all audible frequency ranges from 20Hz to 20Khz, and has a minimalistic and very compact design, which makes this amplifier a good choice to be assembled with little difficulty.

    LM3876 Integrated Circuit Description

    The LM3876 is a high-performance audio power amplifier capable of delivering 56W of continuous average power to an load with 0.1% THD+N from 20Hz–20kHz.

    The performance of the LM3876, utilizing its Self Peak Instantaneous Temperature (°Ke) (SPiKe) protection circuitry, puts it in a class above discrete and hybrid amplifiers by providing an inherently, dynamically protected Safe Operating Area (SOA) SPiKe protection. 

    Means that these parts are completely safe-guarded at the output against overvoltage, under-voltage, overloads, including shorts to the supplies, thermal runaway, and instantaneous temperature peaks.

    The LM3876 maintains an excellent signal-to-noise ratio of greater than 95dB (min) with a typical low noise floor of 2.0μV. It exhibits extremely low THD+N values of 0.06% at the rated output into the rated load over the audio spectrum, and provides exceptional linearity with an IMD (SMPTE) typical rating of 0.004%.

    Feature

    • 56W Continuous Average Output Power into 8Ω
    • 100W Instantaneous Peak Output Power Capability
    • Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 95 dB(Min)
    • An Input Mute Function
    • Output Protection from a Short to Ground or to the Supplies Via Internal Current Limiting Circuitry
    • Output Over-Voltage Protection against Transients from Inductive Loads
    • Supply Under-Voltage Protection, not Allowing Internal Biasing to Occur when |VEE| + |VCC| ≤ 12V, thus Eliminating Turn-On and Turn-Off Transients
    • 11-Lead TO-220 Package
    • Wide Supply Range 20V - 94V

    The Schematic Circuit

    In Figure 2 below we have components arrangement of the power amplifier circuit with the LM3876 IC, and as we can see, the difficulty is not extreme.

    Power Supply

    Power is supplied through a 24 VAC transformer with center tape, i.e. [+VAC | GND | -VAC], after rectification the source will supply 35 VDC

    It is a standard power supply voltage for this amplifier to work with little heating and little distortion, as it works with a minimum of 18V and a maximum of 84V

    The current to power this amplifier is of at least 2A, and if it is going to using in stereo mode, two of these same ones, this current has to be doubled to 4 Amperes

    170W AB Class Bridge Mode Amplifier using TDA7294 IC + PCB

    Fig. 1 - 170W AB Class Bridge Mode Amplifier using TDA7294 IC + PCB

    Para Versão em Português, Clique Aqui!

    This is a Class AB Audio Power Amplifier, it uses two TDA7294 Integrated Circuits, in Bridge Mode to drive one or more power speakers.

    The circuit provides a total output power of 170W, and this with good sound quality, powered from a symmetrical power supply.

    The Amplifier responds very well to all audible frequency ranges, and has a minimalist, compact design, which makes this amplifier a good choice for an unprecedented range of application. 

    IC Description

    The TDA7294 is  a monolithic integrated circuit in Multiwatt15  package, intended  for  use  as  audio class   AB   amplifier   in   Hi-Fi   field   applications (Home Stereo, self powered loudspeakers, guitar amplifier, Top-class TV). 

    Thanks to the wide voltage range and to the high out current capability it is able to supply the highest power into both 4Ω and 8Ω loads even in  presence of  poor supply regulation, with high Supply Voltage Rejection.

    The  built  in  muting  function  with  turn  on  delay simplifies the remote operation avoiding switching on-off noises.

    You might also be interested in:

    The main Advantages offered by Bridge solution

    • High power performance with voltage level limiting supply.
    • Considerably high output power, even at high load values (i.e. 16 Ohm).
    • For a Speaker with 8Ω, Vs = ± 25V, the maximum output power obtained is 150 W, while with a Speaker with 16Ω, Vs = ± 35V, the maximum power is 170 W.

    Features

    • Operating Voltage Range (± 10V to ±40V)
    • DMOS Output Stage
    • High Output Power (Up to 100W musical)
    • Muting / Stand-By Functions
    • No Switch On/Off Noise
    • No Boucherot Cells
    • Very Low Distortion
    • Very Low noise 
    • Short-circuit protection
    • Thermal shutdown

    Bridge Application

    Our amplifier is configured in Bridge mode, where two TDA7294s ICs are used. With this type of configuration we get a pretty significant 170W of power, however there are two different configurations: 

    For 8Ω Speaker - Vs = ± 25V, the maximum output power is 150 W.
    For 16Ω Speaker - Vs = ± 35V, the maximum power is 170 W.

    We know that the TDA7294, supports or speakers in mono version, however, for this application in Bridged configuration, the speaker impedance shouldn't be less than for reasons of dissipation and current carrying capacity of the Integrated Circuits.

    The Schematic Circuit

    In Figure 2 below we have the arrangement of the components of the amplifier circuit with the two TDA7294 ICs, and as we can see, the difficulty is not extreme.

    Since there are few external components, making the amplifier circuit very simple to assemble, and a technician or hobbyist with average experience can assemble it without much difficulty. 

    It is important to remember to be careful when assembling the circuit, not to invert any component such as capacitor diodes, or even when connecting the symmetrical voltage of the power supply.

    Not to invert the voltage poles, because the integrated circuit or other components can be damaged.

    Power Supply

    The power supply will depend on which output power you will choose, which will also depend on how many Ohms your speaker will have. We have two versions:

    Version 1 - 150W output.

    • Speaker must be 8Ω and the maximum voltage is for ±25V

    Version 2 - 170W output.

    • Speaker must be 16Ω and the maximum voltage is ±35V.

    Remember that for both versions a Symmetrical power supply is used, i.e. [ +VCC | GND | -VCC ]. With a current of at least 6 Amperes.

    HI-FI 120W RMS Amplifier Circuit using LM4780 IC + PCB

    Fig. 1 - HI-FI 120W RMS Amplifier Circuit using LM4780 IC

    This is a HI-FI Audio Amplifier circuit with high quality with a large frequency response, using the Integrated Circuit LM4780 which is a stereo audio amplifier. 

    Capable of providing normally 60W per channel of average power of continuous output on an load with less than 0.5% THD + N from 20Hz to 20kHz.

    LM4780 General Description

    The LM4780 is fully protected utilizing National’s Self Peak Instantaneous TemperatureKe) (SPiKeTM) protection circuitry. 

    SPiKe provides a dynamically optimized Safe Operating Area (SOA). SPiKe protection completely safeguards the LM4780’s outputs against over-voltage, under-voltage, overloads, shorts to the supplies or GND, thermal runaway and instantaneous temperature peaks. 

    The advanced protection features of the LM4780 places it in a class above discrete and hybrid amplifiers.

    Each amplifier of the LM4780 has an independent smooth transition fade-in/out mute. The LM4780 can easily be configured for bridge or parallel operation for 120W mono solutions.

    Key Specifications

    • Output Power/Channel with 0.5% THD+N, 1kHz into 8Ω 60W (typ)
    • THD+N at 2 x 30W into 8Ω (20Hz - 20kHz) 0.03% (typ)
    • THD+N at 2 x 30W into 6Ω (20Hz - 20kHz) 0.05% (typ)
    • THD+N at 2 x 30W into 4Ω (20Hz - 20kHz) 0.07% (typ)
    • Mute Attenuation 110dB (typ)
    • PSRR 85dB (min)
    • Slew Rate 19V/µs (typ

    The Circuit

    In Figure 2 below, we have the arrangement of the amplifier circuit components with the LM4780 IC, and as we can see, there are few external components. 

    It is making the amplifier circuit very simple to assemble, one must be careful when assembling the circuit, so as not to invert any component, as it may suffer circuit burnout.

    Fig. 2 - Schematic diagram of Hi-Fi Amplifier 120W RMS with IC LM4780

    Features

    • SPiKe protection
    • Few external components
    • Silent fade-in / mute out mode
    • Wide range of supply voltage: 20V - 84V
    • Signal-to-noise ratio ≥ 97dB (ref. for PO = 1W)

    Power Supply

    The power supply is a +-35V symmetric power supply. If you want to use it in stereo mode with two channels, it will be necessary to use twice the current to support the power of 240W, 120W per channel.

    The power supply must have a good filter to avoid roaring, interference, and oscillations in the amplifier output.

    The consumption current for a channel "One integrated circuit", must be 4 amps, if using two circuits, in stereo mode, the current must be doubled, in this case 8 amps.

    The LM4780 must be equipped with a heatsink, if you use the IC without the heatsink, it will burn out.

    It is recommended to tinker the voltage and output tracks, since the IC has a tight pinout, making it impossible to widen the tracks on the PCB.

    Typically, it provides output power of 14W (d = 0.5%) at 14V / 4Ω; at ± 14V the guaranteed output power is 12W with a load of and 8W on an .

    In Figure 2, we can see the pinout of the TDA2030, it provides a high current output and very low harmonic and cross distortion. 

    Fig. 2 - Pinout TDA2030

    In addition, the device incorporates a short-circuit protection system and an arrangement to automatically limit the dissipated energy so as to keep the working point of the output transistors within their safe operating area. A conventional thermal shutdown system is also included.

    Features

    • Wide-range supply voltage, up to 36 V
    • Single power supply
    • Short-circuit protection to ground
    • Thermal shutdown
    • Low distortion

    PROTECTION AGAINST SHORT CIRCUIT

    The TDA2030 has a unique circuit that limits current from the output transistors. the maximum output current is a function of the emitter-collector voltage; hence the output transistors work within their safe operating area. 

    This function can therefore be considered to be peak power limiting rather than simple current limiting. Reduces the possibility of the device being damaged during an accidental output short circuit.

    THERMAL DISCONNECTION

    The presence of a thermal limiting circuit offers the following advantages:

    1. An output overload (even if it is permanent), or an ambient temperature above the limit can be easily withstood as the Tj cannot exceed 150°C.

    2. The heat sink may have a lower safety factor compared to a conventional circuit. There is no possibility of damage to the device due to high junction temperature. If for some reason the junction temperature rises up to 150°C, thermal shutdown simply reduces power dissipation at current consumption.

    The maximum allowable power dissipation depends on the size of the external heat sink (ie thermal resistance); this power is dissipated depending on the ambient temperature for different thermal resistance.

    The schematic circuit is shown in Figure 3, it is a very simple circuit, which can be easily assembled even by people who are not experienced in circuit assembly.

      Power supplies

      For lovers of amplifiers with IC, it is best to have a simple power supply, because many have simple variable test bench sources that make testing much easier, in addition to an audio amplifier power for the car, we will necessarily have the simple power supply.

      Since this amplifier operates at low voltage, the consumption is quite high. According to Ohm's law, we can calculate this current as follows, using the formula.
      P = V * I

      Where;
      • P = power, V = voltage, I = current.
      Soon;
      • I = P / V
      • I = 180/14.4
      • I = 12.5 A
      Due to the high current consumption indicated in the above formula, the connections to ground and to the power supply must be made with extreme care.

      In car radios, the heat sink is small, but it is in contact with the radio housing, which is made of metal, which greatly facilitates heat dissipation.

      For home amplifiers, which are usually in constant use, a good heat sink should be used. "It depends on how you are going to use it," you say, putting a cooler on the heatsink like the ones used in ATX computers.
