A class D amplifier is basically a category of amplifier in which the power devices (mosfets and BJTs) are operated like switches. The associated output devices in such amplifier circuits either turn fully ON or fully OFF, but never switch between other undefined levels ensuring minimal heat dissipation and maximum efficiency from the devices.

Playing a Melody Using Arduino
In this Arduino tutorial we will learn how to execute the tone() command for producing musical notes. The configuration will play a tiny musical tone that could be familiar to you. Required Hardware for the Project Arduino BoardLoud speaker – 8 Ohm 1 inchResistor – 100 ohmsHook-up wires Procedure: It’s rather too straightforward […]
SMPS 2 x 50V 350W Circuit for Audio Power Amplifiers
This article will illustrate a simple procedure to devise an unregulated 50V switching SMPS symmetric power supply of 350W. This unit can be substituted with the standard audio amplifier power supply to reduce expense and also the weight. The proposed power supply works as a half-bridge with no regulation.

How to Make Ultrasonic Directive Speaker Circuit
In this post I have explained the construction of a ultrasonic directive speaker system also called parametric speaker which may be used to transmit an audio frequency over a targeted spot or zone such that the person situated exactly at that spot is able to hear the sound while the person next to him or […]
Make a Simple Class D Amplifier Circuit
In this article I have explained two simple class-D amplifier projects which can be built at home with extremely high efficiency results. A Class D amplifier is also known as switching amplifier. This technology uses pulse width modulation or PWM for digitally amplifying small analogue music signals into high power, high efficiency audio signals. Why […]
