We received a lot of feedback on the Class-D Amplifier experiment we showed last November, so we developed a follow-on project!

This version of the amplifier features faster gate drivers and a greatly improved board layout over the last version. It operates from a single power supply, reducing cost and complexity. The output is bridged, eliminating the need for large DC blocking capacitors while increasing output power. The parts for this project cost $32 (PCB and shipping excluded), which is not at all bad for a two-channel DIY amplifier that theoretically can achieve up to 50W per channel.

  • The noise when you turned the amp on, is that the amp or the song?

  • @DjViOd The noise seems to come from the laptop power supply being used with this amplifier. When used with a different power supply, the noise doesn't occur.

  • Where did you turn it on? I didn't see a switch on the amp.

  • @NBitWonder After watching it again I saw u used a transformer amd a couple of caps but no rectifier, that's probably the reason of the noise. Anyway very interesting amp! ;D
