Ultra Simple Class D

hi all , it is quiet here. please guys post pictures of your projects.

i wanted to ask , can lm324 be used in this amp instead of tl074 ?

Probably not.

GBW for the 072 is 3MHz vs 1MHz for the 324. More importantly slew rate for the 072 is 13V/uS vs 0.5V/us for the 324

At least one of the amplifiers is being used as a comparator and delays in circuit contribute to the self oscillation and the frequency at which it occurs. The 324 might try to work but even if it manages to give clean gate transitions, it probably won't, the amplifier will be switching at a very low frequency.

Of course you could try one and tell me I guessed wrong :)
 
Inverting integrators require fast opamps, and PA-s are expected to provide low distortion. LM324 falls short on both.
With speed in mind, guess a better integrator would be the 2C non-inverting one, but that would require it to be followed up by an inverting amplifier and a comparator.
 
Class d build

Hi all,
this is my first time to post here, i want to share my work and seeking for help as i this PCB but for some reason it is not working so any help?
Thanks a lot.

Class d build

the amplifier should work well , please check your bc337/327 also is the quality of your tl074 good?

please post more pics ,even of your power supply and the dmm reading



Thank you Stewin for the quick response, the problem caused by the filter inductor i had to change the core (from a green to a yellow one) and add more turns, unfortunately i don't have LC meter to measure inductance and i don't know if it is a ferrite or iron powder core and so i cannot calculate anything!.

Anyway it worked very well, one thing i am not quiet sure of is the heat dissipation of small signal transistors (Q4 and Q6) is that okay??? they get warm but i can stand touching them for a while but i can tell they get really warm.

PSU is +- 39 Volts.

Will post more pictures and readings soon.

Thank you

the heat in the small trannies is ok . but if you are using a yellow white core or green blue core , cut 1mm gap one side of the ring with a hacksaw and coil 33turns.

have fun
 
thanks mark ,

hi all , just finished the fully smd version . please check if there are any errors .

also i have added a relay for on delay and dcp also over current protect is on .
where should I add the over temperature ?
if there are any updates ideas or suggestions ,they are highly appreciated ,please post them here . all files are below


core used can be t-106 to t-157
thanking you all in advance steve
