Op amp pwm design

[Sponkii]

Any one who has a design on a class D amplifier based on opamps ??

[Sponkii]

Hey, i was wondering if it is possible to use som of following components, for a D-class?..


Mosfet:

Amplifier for triangle wave and comperating:

Possibly this comperator:

Or can i use this as a "all in one":

i have mosfet drivers an fets..

You can use almost anything for class D. But why would you choose these? Your MOSFET limits supply voltage to 30 V, wich means approximately 24W @ 4 ohm. If you need only 24W, then there are truly one-chip solutions. And why would you use such an expensive OPA, when a comparator is cheaper and better?

very very good, They are can use at D-class amp.

what i have calculated i can get around 80-100watt in to 8 ohm at 30V if i use bridge..

30V^2 = 900
900/8ohm = 112.5watt

as for the op amp, it is not That expensive..
but what do you want to recommend?

[Pano]

Hmmmm.... I don't think so.

You might squeek by with 50W RMS into 8 ohms with a 30V supply. That's not bad, plenty of power for most jobs. You'll need to keep the chips cool.

[Sponkii]

okay..

i was thinking of half and full bridge.

what is the main factors that i should compare the N - P channel?

On resistance, rise/fall time ? and what is the margin max 10% off??..

It depends on the gate driver, power level, and the quality demand. N an P channel FET's are completely different, so you can't expect too much.

I think IRFZ24N and IRF9Z34N are well enough. I attached a simple schematic. In this circuit your OPA can be quite useful because of its high short circuit current. (But it's just an idea!) You have to change some values! (Gate-resistors and 100 ohm must be reduced significantly if you use AD818.)

Take special attention on supply decoupling, and ground plane, if you build it!

Pafi..

I might have explained it wrong, how do i match a N and a P mosfet for a bridge ..

the schematic that you made, i guess it is self oscillating?..

i have already made a test breadboard. looks like the pic i attatched,

i just need to know, where and how to add "dead time" ??


the op amp i use right now is lm833n, the carrier is around 120khz..

when i connect my 8ohm speaker, it actually sounds great..

For a bridge? Why do you think it is different from matching for a half-bridge?

You explained your question well for the first time, but the answer depends on some unknown things, as I said. Don't bother, there are more serious other problems!

the schematic that you made, i guess it is self oscillating?..

Yes.

i just need to know, where and how to add "dead time" ??

Between gate-driver and FET, or between comparator and gate-driver if your gate driver has 2 channels. How? R||D, C

In any cases you must disconnect two gates from each other! And you need level shifting between gate-driver and FETs.

Where do you connect it, if power stage is "not yet tested"?
