Chapter 6 - Audio Amplifier

An audio amplifier amplifies low-power audio signals to a suitable level for driving loudspeakers. It consists of pre-amplifiers, tone control networks, driver amplifiers, and a power amplifier. The power amplifier amplifies the signal from the driver amplifier to a level that can produce sound through the speaker. There are several types of power amplifier circuits including single-ended, push-pull, complementary symmetry, and integrated circuits. Faults can occur in any of the components or transistors and result in no sound, distorted sound, or constant sound.

Introduction
y

An audio amplifier is an electronic amplifier that amplifies low-power audio signals (signals composed primarily of frequencies between 20 - 20 000 Hz, the human range of hearing) to a level suitable for driving loudspeakers and is the final stage in a typical audio playback chain. chain

Input transducer y Microphone - a transducer which converts sound to electrical l i l signal. i l Pre amplifier : y Amplifies the small audio signal (voltage) from the microphone. Tone Control amplifier : Adjust the nature of the audio signal. The tone control adjusts the balance of high and low frequencies. The volume control adjusts the strength of the signal. Normally has few button such as volume, bass, treble an echo.

Driver amplifier : y Strengthen the signal received from the tone control circuit Power Amplifier : Amplify the signal from the driver amplifier to a suitable value, so that it can drive the speaker and produce a perfect sound. sound Speaker S k A transducer which convert the electrical audio signal to sound signal
