A.D.O.C.A? (Any design of chip amplifier)

GENCHAMP? (Generic chip amplifier)

CHAMP? (Chip amplifier)

davesaudio · 4th May 2003, 01:04 AM

KISAMP? (keep it simple?)

JOE DIRT® · 4th May 2003, 01:41 AM

LOL Dave how about KISS (keep it simple stupid)...hahahaha

blip · 4th May 2003, 02:10 AM

I'm down with CHAMP or KISAMP

Or how about

AFKAGC = (The) Amp Formerly Known As GainClone

LGC = Like GainClone
GCI = GainClone Inspired
BGC = Better than GainCard.
TGLFA = Tastes Great, Less Filling Amp
SSCA = Simple Schematic Chip Amp
MLCA = My Little Chip Amp
GCE = GainClone Experience
CSGA = Cheap Simple Good Amp.

GMCATR = Girly Man Chip Amp That Rocks

Nuuk · 4th May 2003, 07:06 PM

Quite (very?) quick to build so

C.H.A.M.P.I.O.N. - CHip AMP In One Night.

elizard · 4th May 2003, 07:11 PM

it should be something easily pronounced
unlike ngnlkjsdfj (ok.. well that doesn't stand for anything per se .. its more me mashing keys, but you get the point)

Nuuk · 4th May 2003, 07:19 PM

OK, so I don't have much to do this evening

How about CHIPPA (Chip power amplifier). And easy to pronounce (even in Canada)

I agree absolutely that "gainclone" has run it's course. Horrible name. Champs is great.

I just wanted to put in a plug for the BB opa 548- I don't know what the 541 is, chances are they are in the same family.
I have one, yet to be set up. Takes 30-30V
Of interst are the application notes, which show this in paralled mode.( and simpler than the 3886T paralled) Since this has the theoretical power to put 10 amps into four ohms it really deserves a third look at for simple sub setups. Im guessing that everyone knows about per-chip power dissipation so no one will think this is a 300W contiuous-type deal. Just a tad of peak power at hand! Ck it out at TI/BB website.
Fot me, the perfect rear-surround amp.

BTW is it at all possible to consider tantalum caps in the V+/V- bypass mode? ( along with the .1u, of course)

This Is High-End.
