I once bench-tested my Fender Super Reverb and my VOX AC-100 Super Beatle head. Clipping with a 1K sine wave occured at 18 watts on the Super and about 35 watts on the AC-100.
@rich10514145 жыл бұрын
70% efficiency at 30 watts = 9 watts peak power dissipation = 6.36 watts of heat you need to dissipate. You have to take the RMS value of the peak wattage being lost to get the actual wattage wasted to heat, but outfitting the heatsinking to handle the unrealistic peak wattage is an overbuild I can stand behind :P

Kitty is so cute. I'm trying to put together a guitar amp using the TDA7294 chip on a board that is sold on Ebay. Unfortunately, I was taken in by the low reduced price, ordered it and didn't pay attention that it requires a AC input from a transformer (100 to150VA) around 24vac to 36 vac with a centre tap. These transformers are getting expensive these days when looking at supplierss such as Mouser. I haven't ordered at transformer for it yet, but instead found another circuit board , almost identical, that accepts a bipolar rail supply of 50volts to develop the 100 watts rms claimed. The heatsinking has to be external on this one. I ended up buying a +/- 35volt swithching power supply from China and also the other DC input version of the TDA7294 `100 watt amp to go with the switching power supply. Problem with these Ebay sellers from China is that there is no technical information other than the pictures for the pc cards and components on them.

@whataburgerchicken8 жыл бұрын
I am guessing that the 'high power instability' you are seeing is that PWM over-powering the low pass filter. That's the trouble with class D. Since you are using high-frequence PWM to modulate voltage the class d depends on a LPF to eliminate the PWM frequencies from the audio output. So it's expensive to design a good LPF that works both well at both high output and low output.
@SianaGearz7 жыл бұрын
I don't terribly get it. I mean, why is eliminating PWM even important? It's not like you're gonna hear the 400 KHz carrier wave, plus the response of your speakers around those frequencies is likely to be nil. But i can see the fault that can lead to issues with high power, saturation in the filter inductor, which is a source of nonlinearity. For this reason, i think Tripath is specified to be used with a 3-10uH air core inductor, which is honestly not all that big of an issue, just a handful of turns of 0.8mm wire in air and a handful of .47uF film capacitors, no big deal at all, pennies. But chances are, whatever factory churns this out just stuck in whatever they had at hand, whatever was cheap.

Similar but not exactly the same as class D pdf.datasheetcatalog.com/datasheet/Tripath/mXyzxwwt.pdf c/p from another review Class T? What's That? Those who have been paying attention so far have surely noticed the “Class T” designation on the DTA-1 amplifier. You might be wondering what that means. The following is a simplified explanation. A “Class T” amplifier is a single integrated circuit (a “chip”) audio amplifier produced by the defunct Tripath Semiconductor company. Class T amplifiers are closely related to class D amplifiers, which operate in a switching mode. A switching amplifier operates on the concept that its amplification components (the transistors) are either fully turned on or fully turned off. In the case of a Class D amplifier, the input is "blended" with a wave generator to produce a squarewave, which is amplified by the transistors. This is then low-pass filtered to remove the switching frequency from the audio, theoretically leaving behind only an amplified version of the input signal. Switchmode power supplies (as frequently found in computers) work in a similar fashion--a controller IC varies the switching frequency of one or more transistors. When switching, the transistors are either fully on or fully off for a certain length of time. If you adjust the duty cycle (ratio of "on" time to "off" time) the output voltage and current can be controlled. The switching pulses are then filtered out with a capacitor to "smooth" the output. This method of design leads to a very high efficiency amplifier. Efficiencies approaching or even exceeding 90% are possible in high quality designs. The only drawback is the distortion of the input signal during the amplification process. Sometimes the switching frequency (or a harmonic) can leak through the filter and may be audible. I have noticed this behavior from the Tripath amplifiers used in some Apple computers. (It seems that Apple was aware of this and something deactivates the amplifier when it is not in use.) The "Class T" design adds to this a digital signal processor that is used to manage the power systems in the amplifier IC. Also included are thermal, overload, and short circuit protection. The small package size, high power output, relatively good audio quality and efficiency made these amplifiers a popular choice for many different applications--computers (Apple Computer used them in the Quicksilver Macintosh G4 systems, as well as the iMac G4 and probably others), home theater in a box setups and compact stereo systems. Despite the technological advantage of their parts and their popularity, the Tripath company ended up failing. So far as I know, after the company failed, the supply of new Class T amplifier ICs came to an end. I'm not aware of anything having bought the remains of the company or the rights to its products, which are patented. (If you have further information on this, I'd appreciate being contacted so as to set the record straight here.) Anyway, that's what a Class T amplifier is.

I fucked around a bit with maths and according to the results I got, AB amps get the hottest when the signal amplitude is 0.707 times the supply voltage (this means half power), but the most interesting thing is the graph of the efficiency is linear (X/1.41, where X is output/supply), so they are most efficient at full power. And my homemade AB amp proves this. (I don't have an oscilloscope btw, but at half power I can't touch the output transistors, whereas on full power they are just a bit warm).

You can use 4 or 8 ohm speakers with most of these amp boards. Check the instructions with the amp board to be sure (some may not be safe with 4 ohm speakers). Speaker wattage can be the same or greater. You can even use lower wattage speakers than the amp is rated but you must be careful that you don't crank the volume too high that you damage the speaker.

Yeah, that osculation is probably ultrasonic, but it would hetrodyne with the audio, producing difference frequencies that might be audible. So I'd rate it with no oscillation, which would give an even lower result on the power test. So I share your preference for AB over D, though if this was to be a battery powered application the D would be worthwhile.
@JohnAudioTech9 жыл бұрын

JohnAudioTech Yeah, notice that the spectrum readout was pretty clean. Still, music is much more complex than a 1kHz test tone. Noticed your using a player with a recorded tone for less distortion. Too bad low distortion sine wave oscillators remain expensive. Would like to see two or more clean tones at once, pulsed tones, other variants, though that would be one long video!
@JohnAudioTech9 жыл бұрын
Anton's Workbench Amplifiers "see" only a changing voltage level. Doesn't matter if the signal is complex music or a pure sine wave. As long as the signal doesn't change too fast (fast slew) the amp will handle it. The amp can be amplifying 1 tone or 100. As long it has reasonable low distortion, the amp will product no audible inter-modulation products. See: sound.westhost.com/articles/myths.html sections 5.3, 5.6, 5.7 (whole article is a good read, btw). The THD of that music player plus my computer's sound input is around .002%, so it works great for these tests. I've played around with dual tones to check the sum and different inter modulation signals but any good amp with low distortion will produce low IM because it is mathematically impossible to have IM without nonlinearity which also causes harmonic distortion.

@SaturnusDK9 жыл бұрын
To measure efficiency accurately you cannot use sine signals. You must use a white or pink noise signal with a crest factor that simulates music. What you're measuring here is just circuit specific deviance from optimal efficiency. The theoretical peak efficiency of class AB and class D are 71% and 100% respectively. If you measure on sine signals before clipping that number should be about 80% of that for both amps which is what your numbers show. It is important to understand that class D amplifiers are designed to play music. The average level in music is far lower than a sine wave. Usually 10-12dB lower (or 10-16 times). It is at an 10% average output (-10dB average) you measure the efficiency. A class AB amp will show about 15-18% efficiency and a typical class D amp will show about 70-80% efficiency at 10% average output level. Everything in class D chips and amps is designed for the purpose of musical playback. Heat sinking, component dimensioning, etc etc. Using sine waves as test signals for class D amps is wrong from an engineering point of view as it will not show the actual performance when in use.
@JohnAudioTech9 жыл бұрын
SaturnusDK I see that a lot of amplifiers are designed for playing music, for if it played a continuous sine wave tone at max power, the amplifier could get too hot since, as you said, average level of music is much lower. This is common with consumer products because an extra large heatsink and power supply would be costly. The companies making this stuff want to be competitive and profitable. Of course, this may not apply to boutique gear. I don't agree at all with your last line about using sine wave as being wrong from the engineering standpoint. Sine wave signals are what every amplifier designer or EE I know of would use. Once the amp is built, tested and stable, it is time for the musical listening test.
@SaturnusDK2 жыл бұрын
@Steve Foudray Exactly what I'm arguing. These are audio amplifiers, they are advertised as such and sold as such. Many places that sell these even stipulate they are for audio playback only. So when you measure them you must use audio signals, or internationally recognised approximations of audio signal but never pure sine waves, or at least never pure sine waves used as the only metric, as that gives a completely false picture of the performance.

It makes no sense to operate a class D amplifier with a non-symmetric power supply because you lose immediately a big portion of its only advantage compared to class AB amplifiers.

So very often you will see rather poor Class-D Amps just cause no other design would really work for those designs. At the very highend you can get pretty much every design to sound perfect. I personally rather like Class D cause you can even make them your self really cheap and still have a great performance. And with a bit of knowhow you can use it to drive some bigger Mosfets to get high amplifications and the ability to drive big loads even with a really cheap Amp.

Class "D" is a single channel, it's a mono sub woofer amp. You are calling a 2 channel stereo amp class "D" class "AB" amps amplify the signal as it comes into the amp. Class "D" amps filters out the mids and highs, then only amplifies what is left, the lows, that's why people say it's more efficient. To get the same effect with a class "AB" amp you need to run a crossover. Class "D" is typically smaller and does not need to take signal from a crossover. Therefore it's a space saver.

that ic is a class B amplifier not AB

I must be deaf but I just don't hear any noticeable differences between all the amplifier IC's available out there.

No, your ears are just fine. It is because there really isn't any audible differences. Most properly functioning solid state amplifiers will have distortion under 1% or even far less and that has been shown to be inaudible with music. Frequency response is usually pretty flat and damping factor high which is all good for fidelity. However, some of the class D boards I've tried have background hiss a little higher than I'd like.

A class D amplifier should not need a heatsink.

Lets compare a regular amplifier vs a "premium entry level" class amplifier, lets put the video on youtube and let everyone that most likely use some kind of class D amplifier on their computers "hear" the difference :P

My speaker quality + My room acoustics + my camera's weak, compressed audio quality + video editor's audio compression + KZbin's audio compression + viewer's computer, amplifier and speakers/headphones = Not a reliable way to judge sound. However people jump up and down and pitch a fit if I don't play a sample of music through the amplifier.

lol sorry it was not a mean to offend, i just think it is crazy to say that the difference is clear on the vid. I have no doubts that there is difference, just hard to tell through here.

None taken. I didn't want you to think that I believe one can tell the difference in a YT video.

To scope a class D turn on the low pass filter on your scope, the trash you're seeing is for the PWM.
@JohnAudioTech8 жыл бұрын
+DVXCine I think it is important to show the "trash" as it could be instability or core saturation of the filter chokes. It really shouldn't be there in a properly operating circuit.

You don't hear any distortion? Well, I guess it's a subjective thing you're doing, but the music sounds like it was being played through a tin can instead of a HiFi speaker of any decent type.

John, are you having some breathing problems? You sounded out of breath during a lot of your discourse. Also, shut off the camera and feed the cat. Then get back to the video. Everyone will bee less tense. 😎
