Many electronic projects require the use of a small audio amplifier. Be it a radio transceiver, a digital voice recorder, or an intercom, they all call for an audio amp that is small, cheap, and has ...

With the advent of digital recording and transmission, the idea of directly combining digital sources with digital processing to provide an end-to-end digital audio system seemed imminent. End-to-end ...

As Axiom’s chief R&D engineer Tom Cumberland describes it, a digital amplifier is a “power DAC”, and of course a DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) is the basis of all digitally recorded media, whether ...

1. Is Amplifier Weight an Indicator of Robust Amplifier Design? You have to find out if the amplifier is a Class A/B analog amp or a Class D digital amplifier before you can generalize about weight ...

If you know anything about a transistor, it’s probably that it’s a three terminal device whose output pin forms part of a potential divider whose state is dependent on what is presented to its input ...

STMicroelectronics has created a pair of 10W Class-D audio amplifiers for use in vehicles “for automotive applications like eCall, telematics and wherever an audio channel needs to reproduce human ...

Emerging as the first single-package, six-channel digital-audio amplifier power stage, the TAS5186 supports five 30W channels and one 60W channel, providing more than 200W total. The 44-pin HTSSOP ...

STMicroelectronics has unveiled new class-D automotive audio amplifiers for smart-cockpit applications, engineered for tiny overall dimensions and with a digital input that simplifies circuit design.
