TDA 8946

15 W stereo Bridge Tied Load (BTL) audio amplifier
The is a dual-channel audio power amplifier with an output power an 8 load and 18 V supply. The circuit contains two Bridge Tied Load (BTL) amplifiers with an all-NPN output stage and standby/mute logic. The TDA8946J comes a 17-pin DIL-bent-SIL (DBS) power package. The TDA8946J is printed-circuit board (PCB) compatible with all other types in the TDA894x family. One PCB footprint accommodates both the mono and the stereo products.

Few external components Fixed gain Standby and mute mode No on/off switching plops Low standby current High supply voltage ripple rejection Outputs short-circuit protected to ground, supply and across the load Thermally protected Printed-circuit board compatible.
