A Zobel is an impedance matching circuit often used with loudspeakers. A Zobel circuit is also known as a Boucherot cell or somewhat incorrectly as an RC snubber. The nominal impedance of a ...

Clip detection is a convenient feature in Class AB amplifiers. It produces a signal from a clip-detection pin that drives an automatic volume control, which reduces gain compression and distortion ...

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 ...

Hang around in any of the many guitar or audiophile forums or discussion boards for long enough, and eventually you’ll come across the arguments over amplifier topologies. One of the more interesting ...

Class D amps are simple – just take an input, and use that to modulate a square wave with PWM. Send this PWM signal to a MOSFET or something, and you have the simplest class D amp in existence.

If you have read an amplifier review or looked at the specifications for an amp, the chances are that you have come across a term such as 'Class A/B'. In fact, this is just one of a number of ...

Diodes has introduced a 10+10W stereo Class-D audio amplifier with an anti-clipping circuit to avoid distortion at high volume settings and output spectrum-spreading to improve EMC. Called PAM8106, ...
