14W STEREO AUDIO AMPLIFIER

This project is a 14W Stereo Audio Amplifier based on LM4730 IC.

DESCRIPTION

14W Stereo audio power amplifier build around LM4730 IC. The LM4730 is stereo audio amplifier capable of delivering typical 14W per channel of continues average output power a 4 Ohms or 8 Ohms load with less than 10% THD+N from  20Hz to 20Khz frequency. Each amplifier has an independent smooth transition fade-in/out mute and a power conserving standby mode which can be controlled by onboard slide switches.

 The LM4730 has short circuit protection and thermal shutdown feature that is activated when the IC temperature exceeds 150 centigrade. The LM4730 also has under voltage lock out feature for click and pop free power off and on. Amplifier required proper heat sink.
