100Watt Bipolar Power Amplifier Circuit with BD139-BD140


This is a basic 100 watt power amplifier designed to be (relatively) easy to build at a reasonable price. It has a better performance (read: musical quality) than the standard STK module amps that are used in almost every mass market stereo receiver manufactured today. When I originally built this thing, it was because I needed a 100 WPC amp and do not want any money. So I designed around parts I had in the store.
The design is actually a standard format, and I’m sure there are commercial entities that are similar. To my knowlwdge, it is not an exact copy of a commercial entity, nor am I aware of any patents on topology. For experienced builders: I am aware that many improvements and adjustments can be made, but the idea was to keep it simple and must do-able by anyone who is a circuit, and has not the patience to do a sloppy job.
If friend want Bipolar Transistor power amplifier circuit. , In model HIFI OCL 100W RMS. I think this track should be an interesting choice, this circuit is the use of the key transistor BD317 and BD318 unless transistor number BD139, BD140, BC556 too easy then try to buy when the 35V power source with only then build is not difficult for other details as the result of a few See Circuit.  Input stage is a BC556 transistor, which most of the open loop gain, and on the serene DC voltage stabilizes. This feeds a level shift stage where the voltage swing to (-) track references. The Transconductance stage is a Darlington, improve frerqency high linearity. The BD317, 318 on a rather large collector-base capacity is dependent on voltage. The BD319 presents this low-z and has a C (ob) of only a few of PF, which is effectively swamped by the pole-splitting 220pF cap. The scene is supplied by BC546 active load (current), which is approximately 20 mA. The current, until the BC556 is limited to about 70 mA in the worst cases.

Audio Level Meter with 8 LEDs Indicator

This audio level meter required 2 pieces of LM324 for each channel. Every single LM324 contain 4 op-amps, then you need 2 pieces of LM324 to cover 8 LEDs. And need 4 piece of LM324 for 16 LEDs (for stereo channel)
Here the schematic:

Notes:

  • The output power indicated by each LED must be doubled when 4 Ohms loads are driven.
  • The circuit can be adapted to suit less powerful amplifiers by reducing the number of LEDs and related voltage dividers.
  • LEDs of any dimension can be used, but rectangular shaped devices will be more suitable to be compacted in bars or columns.
  • For a stereo amplifier, two identical circuits are required.

60W Linear RF Amplifier Circuit


electronic circuit diagram


The 60 Watt linear rf amplifier is easy all solid state circuit applying power mosfet IRF840. The IRF series of power transistors are provided in a number of voltage and power ratings. A single IRF840 can carry out maximum power output of 125 watts. Because these transistors are applied in inverters and smps, they're simply presented for about Rs: 20/-.

The IRF linear amplifier could be connected to the out put of well-known VWN-QRP to obtain an output of 60 Watts. The circuit draws 700 ma at 60 Volt Vcc. Great heat sink is actually a ought to for the power transistor.

Alignment of the circuit is quite effortless. Connect a dummy load to the out put of the circuit. It is possible to use some modest bulb like 24V 6Watts as the dummy load. I've even utilized 230V 60Watts bulb as dummy load with my IRF840 power amplifier working at 120Volts. Adjust the 10K preset to obtain about 100 ma Drain current. I applied gate voltage of 0.8V with my linear amplifier. A heigh gate voltage can make the power transistor get distroyed by self oscillation. So gate voltage ought to be below 2V and fixing at 1V is going to be secure.

Bifalar transformaer T1 is wound with 8 turns 26SWG on 1.4 x 1 balun core. The coil on the drain of IRF is 3 turns 20 SWG wound on 4 number of T13.9 torroids (two torroids are stacked to form a balun core). The RFC at the Vcc line is 20 Turns 20 SWG wound on T20 torroid.

three up decision maker



PCB Layout
This electronic device will help you make important decisions (or not). While it is deciding the solution to your problem it will convince you how difficult it really is by a painful growling noise - or maybe this is normal when you have to think!
Once the push button is pressed, the circuit uses a 555 Timer in a astable (free running multivibrator) fashion.  The mathematics indicate that we should be getting a square wave signal at a frequency of around  124 Hz ( cycles per second) see 555 Worksheet.  This signal is fed into the4017 Decade Counter which counts 0 - 1 -2 - RESET.  Where RESET is an instantaneous process that sets the counter to 0.  For all purposes, the count is 0 - 1 - 2 - 0 - 1 - 2 ..............  This counting sequence is produced at pins 2, 3 and 4 of the 4017 .  We have assigned pin 2 as NO, pin 3 as MAYBE and pin 4 as YES.  The output from the 4017 is passed through 390 ohm resistors to limit the current (protect the 4017) before passing through the coloured LED's to 0V.  The push button also supplies current to the buzzer making the noise while it decides.
When the push button is released the 555 stops the signal and the 4017 displays the current count YES, NO or MAYBE.
To construct the project

1. Check the PC Board for damage or breaks in the tracks. A CdS Circuit Tester is ideal, or use a continuity tester mode on a multimeter. Repair any damaged tracks.
2. Push the IC sockets into their holes. One has 8 pins, the other 16. The pads on the board will match the legs. Note that there is a notch in one end of the sockets. On the layout sheet there is an instruction about the locating DOT of each IC. If you turn the IC sockets so the notch is where the locating dot is to go, then you will be saved a bit of thinking later when you are ready to push the ICs. into place. Push the sockets right down to the board. It is strongly recommended that you solder the sockets in place right away. See Soldering Technique . Any spreading of solder across to the fine tracks between the pads will prevent the project from working.
3. Identify the resistors by their colour bands See Resistors , and check with a multimeter. Bend the legs to match their holes and mount them to the board. Spread the legs on the other side to hold them in place. They may be soldered if convenient.
4. The polyester capacitor (greencap) can be inserted. They are not polarised so can go any way round.
5. The electrolytic capacitor is polarised.  The negative stripe on the capacitor shows the negative leg.
6. The LED's are polarised.   Insert them in the correct polarity and colour placement. The A leg is longer.
7. The Piezo transducer has Red (+ ve) and Black (-ve) leads. The board is marked for correct connections. The holes in the board at these points are larger to take the pins in the Kit. This makes termination of the wires much easier.
8. Remove the ICs from their anti-stat cases and identify them - 8 & 16 legs. You will find that the legs are spread too wide to fit easily into their sockets, so hold one set of legs sideways on a flat surface and press down to bend them inwards a little. Follow with the other side. Offer the IC to its socket and check that the legs have been bent in enough to slide into the socket. Look for the locating DOT and turn the IC to match the sheet. Push it firmly into place. Repeat the process for the other IC.

9. Offer the holder into the two holes and push home.  Note the battery holder is inserted from the track side of the PCB. Apply the soldering iron to the legs in turn until you have pushed the holder down close to the board. Next, fuse the solder to both pads and legs to form a good contact.
10. Attach the switches in their respective positions.  Insert a bettery and test the project.
Generally the unit will work right away. If it refuses then you must check locations, values, and polarity of all components against the layout sheet.
If these check out then remove the battery holder and inspect all soldered joints. Re-solder any that look suspicious, in fact you could touch each joint with a hot iron to eliminate any soldering problems.
You might check the track again to locate any fine breaks,

  1. I know I skipped R4. That is not a problem :-)

  2. Distortion is less than 0.1% up to 100HZ and increases to about 1% at 20kHz.

  3. I haven't been able to find anyone who sells a suitable T1. You can always use two 24V 5A units in series. If you are building two amps (for stereo), then I would suggest using an old microwave transformer and rewinding it. Follow the instructions in the 12V To 120V Inverter, execpt wind 26 turns, twist a loop (center tap) and wind 26 more turns. That should work out to around 50 volts. You may need to add or remove turns depending on your transformer.

  4. Q1 and Q2 will require heatsinks.

  5. You may have trouble finding U3 because it is discontinued. Please don't email me about sources...I can't find it either. See if any of the sources in Where To Get Parts has it. A possible source was sent in by JBWilliams
