			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a handy, easy to build general purpose 50 watt amp. The amp has an input for a radio, TV, stereo or other line level device. It also has a phono input for a record player, guitar, microphone or other un-amplified source. With the addition of a low pass filter at the input, it makes a great amp for a small subwoofer.</p>

<p>I know I skipped R4. That is not a problem <img src='http://www.sz123.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>Distortion is less than 0.1% up to 100HZ and increases to about 1% at 20kHz. </p>
<p>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. </p>
<p>Q1 and Q2 will require heatsinks. </p>

</table>
<p>The circuit works best with 4 ohm speakers, but 8 ohm units will do. </p>
<p>The circuit dissipates roughly 28 watts of heat, so a good heatsink is necessary. The chip should run cool enough to touch with the proper heatsink installed. </p>
<p>The circuit operates at 12 Volts at about 5 Amps at full volume. Lower volumes use less current, and therefore produce less heat.</p>

<li>IC1 MUST be installed on a heat sink. </li>
<li>C3 is for filtering and to prevent oscillation and should not be omitted. </li>
<li>The circuit can be built on a perf board, universal solder board or PC board, the PC board is preferred. I built the circuit on a perf board and had to add a low value inductor at the input to prevent oscillation. </li>
<li>The circuit draws about 880 ma at 12 V. </li>
<li>By swapping the values of R1 and R3, you can turn this amplifier into a guitar amp with no preamp required. </li>
<li>If you add a 0.2uF capaciitor in series with a 1 ohm resistor to the output you can prevent oscillation of the circuit under certain conditions. </li>
