I'm like you Vince, I absolutely love fixing and diagnosing electronics. It's a good buzz when you get something to work. Remember next time when there is no audio, always go for the audio output stage (amplifier circuitry)it's usually in two sections, preamplifier and the main output amplifier, but in your case, it's an all in one package (integrated circuit)and that makes them run hotter so they're more prone to failure, you could put a little heatsink on them and that would make them last longer. Glad to hear you've got an oscilloscope now you can learn all about signal tracing, and that's great fun.

The 8002B appears to be a clone of the National Semiconductor (now TI) LM4871. If you look at the original data sheet you'll see that the SOIC packaged varsion was only rated for driving 1.5W into 8 ohm loads. There is a special version in a WSON package which can do 2.5W into 4 ohms. I expect the 8002Bs are just being killed by overloading and replacing them might get things working again but only temporarily. Replacing the speaker with an 8 ohm one might help.

To add to this, TI states that for a 3W 4Ohm load, you should be using an LM4871LD, which they don't seem to make in an SOIC-8 package like the 8002b. They do make it in a 4x4 8-WSON package, with the same pinout, but I don't think that will fit where you need it. Datasheet: www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lm4871.pdf

It's the impedance of the speaker that determines the load on the amplifier, not its capacity. I.e. 4-ohm speaker determines the load, a 4-watt speaker determines the amount of power it'll take before it either flies apart, or the voice coil gets dangerously hot (it's usually the voice coil thing). The two specs are linked as far as an amplifier is concerned, but that relationship is beyond the scope of this paragraph. The chip is probably overheating.

Fantastic job =D Always interesting to watch you find the cause of a failure! I suspect (as you thought) that the speaker is ultimately why this is probably a common failure point on these. It might be OK if the volume is low for the most part - but how many people crank the volume up to max for their fav song - it might not be able to sustain max volume for long periods of time. You could test how hot the IC gets when on full volume for a few mins in the next video maybe?

You can't find the GND on speaker/headphones because it is bridge mode output power amp (BTL) for each channel and it was shown on the datasheet => BTL@4 Ohms - 2.65W for speaker. The speaker is perfect for this amp, just cheap Chinese stuff failed for no reason. Never hasitate to do a revisit untill its fixed, many people (mostly newcomers) with limited knowledge look for a specific details about some process and for them this is a descent knowledge base. This is more like psychological state rather than knowledge thirst or maybe both, just like relieving good feelings from fixing something.

The rating of the speaker 3 Watts and 4 Ohms. The speaker would not overload the amp as it is presenting itself to the amplifier as a 4 Ohms Load, it can just take more power without burning out its own speaker coil. Maybe what happened is someone used the headphone jack with shorted out headphones which destroyed the amp. You would think some better protection circuit would be used but I guess they are built to a price.

The audio connector is also a switch. Besides having the pins for the Jack there is also a switch that commutes from speaker (amplified) to headphones (not amplified) that is why you have so many pins.

Hi Vince, have watched a few of your videos and i like the content. I recently purchased a faulty Bush DAB BD1709 radio from eBay for about £7 with the sole objective of fixing it. It was listed as having no power. I have already figured out that one of the capacitors had blown inside and left a lot of the fluffy insulation inside. I have cleaned that mess up then to discover that a very very tiny smd chip (i think it had 5 pins but not sure, and its probably about 2mm square) im assuming was connected next to that capacitor, had blown also. But because the tiny chip is so small and burnt I am unable to read the code on it. At an educated guess what would you think the chip would be? I am unable to find any schematics for it and I think it was an Argos product. Thanks in advance for any small advice.

The chip is a Kino 4 from Frontier Silicon - a british company. I have quite a bit of background with these. The Winbond chip holds the firmware. Frontier Silicon is /the/ vendor for DAB+ radio chipsets, some of them running Linux. They don't sell radios themselves. The firmware quality is argueably very poor, so are the translations. Most radios with DAB+ and internet radios are just using their hardware design and firmware and put their own label on. So you have a hard time finding a radio that is not using the Frontier Silicon chipset. The Sony radios, as well as the Grundig ones do AFAIK not use Frontier Silicon IP.

Speaker impedance is the only thing that matters. A speaker that's rated for 3 watts, means that's how much power the speaker coil itself can safely take. A 3 Watt speaker draws no less or more power from an amplifier than a 2 Watt, nor one rated for 50 Watts. I'd say the 3 Ohm impedance is what's killing this little amplifier chip. A 6~8 Ohm speaker would make this work a lot better, and more reliably. It's funny how speaker power ratings work. I remember Altec Lansing speakers used to be rated at 50 Watts, but could handle well into the hundreds of Watts. In fact, I used to have a pair of Voice Of The Theater speakers hooked up to a 1,000 Watt amplifier, LOL!
