-- High Quality very simple unit |
-- No need for a preamplifier |
Circuit diagram:
Amplifier parts:
P1 = 22K | Log.Potentiometer (Dual-gang for stereo) |
R1 = 1K | 1/4W Resistor |
R2 = 4K7 | 1/4W Resistor |
R3 = 100R | 1/4W Resistor |
R4 = 4K7 | 1/4W Resistor |
R5 = 82K | 1/4W Resistor |
R6 = 10R | 1/2W Resistor |
R7 = R22 | 4W Resistor (wirewound) |
R8 = 1K | 1/2W Trimmer Cermet (optional) |
C1 = 470nF | 63V Polyester Capacitor |
C2,C5 = 100΅F | 3V Tantalum bead Capacitors |
C3,C4 = 470΅F | 25V Electrolytic Capacitors |
C6 = 100nF | 63V Polyester Capacitor |
D1 = 1N4148 | 75V 150mA Diode |
IC1 = TLE2141C | Low noise,high voltage,high slew-rate Op-amp |
Q1 = BC182 | 50V 100mA NPN Transistor |
Q2 = BC212 | 50V 100mA PNP Transistor |
Q3 = TIP42A | 60V 6A PNP Transistor |
Q4 = TIP41A | 60V 6A NPN Transistor |
J1 | RCA audio input socket |
Power supply parts:
R9 = 2K2 | 1/4W Resistor |
C7,C8 = 4700΅F | 25V Electrolytic Capacitors |
D2 | 100V 4A Diode bridge |
D3 | 5mm. Red LED |
T1 | 220V Primary, 15 + 15V Secondary 50VA Mains transformer |
PL1 | Male Mains plug |
SW1 | SPST Mains switch |
Notes:
-
Can be directly connected to CD players, tuners and tape recorders.
-
Don't exceed 23 + 23V supply.
Q3 and Q4 must be mounted on heatsink.
D1 must be in thermal contact with Q1.
Quiescent current (best measured with an Avo-meter in series with Q3 Emitter) is not critical.
Adjust R3 to read a current between 20 to 30 mA with no input signal.
To facilitate current setting add R8 (optional).
A correct grounding is very important to eliminate hum and ground loops. Connect in the same point the ground sides of J1, P1, C2, C3 &C4. Connect C6 at the output ground.
Then connect separately the input and output grounds at the power supply ground.
