Simple audio amplifier 2x 100W RMS

Audio Amplifier Electronic Circuit

Project details

This is a simple but powerful audio amplifier with a high output power of 2x 100W RMS (not P.M.P.O.). The speaker impedance is 4 ohms. The amplifier operates in Class AB. It uses TDA7293 integrated circuits with MOSFET outputs. These are similar to the TDA7294 but have an increased maximum allowable voltage, from 100V to 120V, and are equipped with a clipping detector.

Above is a schematic diagram of one channel of the amplifier and a classic power supply for the entire amplifier (both channels).

The stereo logarithmic potentiometer, P1, is used to adjust the volume. LED1 indicates signal clipping. This may be caused, for example, by a reduced supply voltage of the amplifier, excessive ripple in the filter capacitors (if their capacitance is too small), or simply by an overly strong input signal.

Each channel has its own indicator. Clipping indicators may be omitted. The amplifier’s power supply is symmetrical, with a classic mains power transformer. 100n capacitors should be placed as close to the integrated circuits to prevent the amplifier from oscillating and causing distortion or overheating.

Mute and Standby inputs are not used. Even without their use, there are no significant impulses during power-on or power-off. If necessary, you can use these inputs to implement standby switching for the amplifier.

Critical Warning!

This device is powered by mains voltage and presents significant electrical hazards. It is absolutely essential to use an appropriate fuse to prevent dangerous conditions. In the event of poor design or improper handling, mains voltage can potentially reach all components, posing a severe risk of electric shock. Both the supply voltage and the secondary voltage of the transformer are extremely hazardous and must be treated with extreme caution. Furthermore, capacitors can remain charged even after the device has been powered off, presenting an ongoing risk. All work on this device is done at your own risk and full responsibility. Ensure you fully understand the dangers before proceeding.
