100W Ultimate Fidelity Amplifier

[prasi]

Search for aa14 which is based on ax 14 I think.
I don't know much details, so may be run a sim and see for yourself.

 

[shabusf]

Thanks Prasi for the quick reply

Found the AA14 layout design done by you. Is that the final working version?

Sincerely, I am not aware if anyone has tested it. But layout confirms to the schematic.

Ok, Thanks Prasi. Let me do one more round of search for successful builds.

Are STD03P/N simulation models from the simulator you use coded or publicly available? I am looking for such to LTspice.

 

[viki_v2]

Here's the file for APEX HX-11 Class-H Amp.

Regards,

Why does this amp pcb have two different voltages.

TB3 + TB1: Where should I add Tone Defeat switch?

Please help, where should I add a tone defeat switch in TB3.

Hi, the simulation in TinaTI was done with macros for STD03N/P modeled by me then,
they work for me adequately and the macros adhere satisfactorily to DS parameters and curves,

so that Vbe_multi with built-in ThermalTrack diodes work as expected
and express the expected Vbe_multi voltage
I added a 10R R26 series resistor with a BIAS ADJ trimpot for OPS bias
on which we can check the bias current of ThermalTrack diodes,
around about 2-3mA,
so that we can correct the flow through R8-R12 (150R + 150R) and adjust their VAS bias current sharing
MJE340 / 350 can be exchanged for any other good VAS BJTs
let's say/or similar:

Dragan100, thank you so much!

hi i haave made p30 alex mm pcb when i powered it two 22ohm resistors heated and smoked up. its fourth time i have made it every thing is ok. i have also rotted 2n5551. can any one help

Have you checked the orientation of the 4148 diodes?

 

[clpk]

I'm assembling the ax11 layout, but I can't lower the bias that is at 330mv on resistor 0r22. I have already replaced the BC 139 and BC140 polarization transistors with MJE340 and MJE350, but it did not solve it. What can be done?

yes i have checked and also buffer circuit work good. i have attached the file.

its now working the gain seems too high i have attached a apeaker to p30 to test.
the sound distorts at high volume. is it due to the speaker i have conected?
any one reply please

I don't understand. The P30 is a preamp. It's not meant to drive a speaker.

Apex P30 PCB

hey guys I got the PCB I think I need a magnifier sadly I have to put this project on hold I need to completed and audio amplifier project and I'm about to purchase the chassis from diyaudio.com store finally!

 

[Dragan100]

I don't understand. The P30 is a preamp. It's not meant to drive a speaker.

Jupp,

with an expected max 50mApeak of output current,
he can even expect a few tens of mW on 8R0 output load of the P30 preamp.

Most likely, the output will go in current clipping as early as with 0.5Vpeak
output voltage amplitude with such a low output load!
