PWM amplifiers and Switch-Mode Power Supplies are based on many years experience with audio design and power conversion design.
One of our preferred amplifier designs is precision clock based with half-bridge
or
full-bridge output section and overall feedback after the output filter ,
this
gives a design which has very good audio qualities and very good thd
specs,
it is unconditionally stable and frequency response is only slightly dependant
on
load impedance.
For multi-channel applications we think it is the best configuration too.
Lately more integrated designs have matured, we have made designs with
these too
and we focus on these for low and medium power designs to keep the cost
down.
EMC and noise issues are dealt with from the design phase and we use
multi-layer pcbs with ground planes and decoupling combined with EMC filters at
the output and power inputs.
Our switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) are designed to power audio
amplifiers with the very fluctuating load this presents to the supply and
they
are again unconditionally stable and works very well into no load or full
load.
Power factor corrention (PFC) becomes very attractive or mandatory at high
power levels, the PFC circuit ensures a load from the AC line very much
like a
true resistive load and unlike the very high peak currents associated with
normal
power supplies (SMPS or linear).
Typical applications for our amplifers (and power supplies) are;
*HIFI amplifiers
*Home Cinema Amplifiers
*Active Loudspeakers
*PA amplifiers
*ELA amplifiers
*Musical Instrument Amplifiers
*Industrial Amplifiers
*CAR audio amplifiers
etc. etc.
