A new book authored by Robert N. Buono delves deeply into Class-D amplifiers, a crucial technology in audio designs. Buono ...
Because pulse modulation output signals are either on or off, Class D amplifiers produce far less heat than analog amplifiers. Reaching efficiencies greater than 90% compared to only 50% for analog, ...
Apogee Technology has complained about some of Texas Instruments Inc.'s Class D claims. In March, TI called itself the first to introduce a single-chip Class D amplifier in the 125-watt/channel range.
Once dismissed as providing only average-quality audio, Class D switchingamplifiers appear now to be turning the tide and gaining acceptance in consumerapplications. Companies like Analog Devices, ...
Class D amps from $130 to $50,000—pulling more ears into hi-fi without demanding you sell a kidney. Solid tech, serious power, and none of the usual overpriced fluff. Finally, affordable doesn’t sound ...
This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Class D audio amplifiers are able to fulfill the requirements for audio applications such as mobile handsets, Bluetooth ...
Trade offs in designing with IC and discrete component class D amplifiers including switching speeds, filtering options, and power supply considerations. The switching amplifier, or class D amplifier, ...
I've been hosting an outdoor movie event for over 10 years now and have been slowly adding and upgrading equipment. There are usually around 30 people, pretty spread out and up to 50ft away from the ...
Analog Devices has created a pair of 22V stereo Class-D audio amplifier that idle at 6mA and shut-down to microamps. MAX98415A and MAX98425A are similar, and both including envelope tracking control ...
Nuvoton has released the NAU83U25YG, an automotive-grade Class-D audio amplifier designed for vehicle electronics ...
Analog amplifiers are cataloged by how much current flows during each wave cycle. Measured in degrees, 360º means current flows 100% of the time. The more current, the more inefficient and the more ...
Can these two extra cool amps--the Bel Canto REF500S ($2,495) and the Dayton DTA-100 ($100)--offer green power for audiophiles? Ex-movie theater projectionist Steve Guttenberg has also worked as a ...
