TPA3250 somebody is listening?

Some heatsink should be connected here

but too small distance to bottom part of the case.
Сonnect directly to bottom part of the case impossible due to the design of the case - bottom part moving when you insert the board

is not correct = because the srews are bigger , so fill up the room between the 2 screws with silicon pads and then it have to fit to the buttom plate of the amp case...


sorry now i am out.....cycling

nice friday...:D
 
...sunny afternoon...

Hi

in the morning I did the final check between original amp1 and the mod amp2 with just changed op amp BB2134. i used the same psu = original.
the original amp is still a fine good amp. the original opamp inside are not original brand-see post before....

Sound:
the BB2134 ais able to focus and keep the interprets in the "required" place, they are not moving during playing music. the BB2134 is able to give you 1m more left an right room without streching everything in strange order. voices and instruments are more "real" with a nice deepness.
both amps are silent no hiss.

Hi

i opened completle the amp and I made some pics. i am not really sure if this chip is the real TP3250, The with label is very weak.

i measure the big caps = rubycon 1800µ/35V and i found a datasheet were i see 3 different sizes for this yxg series...so it looks ok for me.

i opend the first amp = amp 1. its a blue board with whit pcb at the volume knob. so its a version 3. no optical diverence in layout. the coils have different plastic cover and the caps at this side looks different....

i decided to change here tha opamp. so in the future the amp1 is with LM49720 :D........and amp 2 is still with BB2134


lets burn in and check the sound LM49720 vs BB2134:cool:

cu chris

...mod .....cooling situation...

i pick up the idea from post before und mod the lower part of the pcb where the tpa3250 is mounted. if you measure the distance between the lower line of the pcb to the buttom alu case plate you measure about 5,1mm.

i found a ceramic resistor MPR5N 0,1 Ohm (link below) in my box and cut the pins and give on both side thermal paste and stick it between the screws of the chip and slide the pcb back to the alu case. i checked the position and evereything is fine.


so in the future I sould measure on the buttom plate a hot spot under the chip.

Looks like improvements of v5 are in the white color of the board only:D

we will see...:D
step by step...actually the amp 1 V3 blue is running with the lm49720....first impression is very good....after fair "burn in phase" i will compare to the amp2 (BB2134)....if there is a difference ...i will change the opamps vice versa...


watch out if you fix the resistor ...measure carefully...5,1mm ..if you hold the pcb in one hand and fix the ceramic resistor then slide with the other hand the alu buttom case....dont crack the pcb...

have a nice weekend.
 
I got a pair of LME49720 chips today. How do I tell the direction they go in? There is the printing on the top of the chip and the half-circle notch out of the left side. Do I put them in with the writing going the same direction as the stock chips? There is not a mark on the first leg as some pictures show (and others do not).
 
10% safety factor for capacitor, Oh~Ye - thks fr confirm, now i have peace of mind supply FX502spro with meanwell configured 31V.

You have a point on heat problem, my thoughts of using 31V beyond 24V:
~ TPA3250 Power output depends on voltage -- was hoping 31V provides more for any transient music peak.
~ 24V from LM317~1.5A if undergood dissipation
Rough estimate: This 24V supplies NE5332 Op-Amp (datasheet 16mA) , to LM2596HVS gives 12V for TPA3250 Logic/Gate control (datasheet 40mA), to AMS1117 to provide 3.3V for 8bit MCU ST S003F3P6 (datasheet 100mA) ~ total max approx 0.16A
LDO LM317 ~ 7V drop gives 1.2W heat.

What else did i missed?

2 items unsure:
~ International Rectifer IRF9530N -- what function on FX amp?
~ Does FX TPA3250 back-stage driven by whatever voltage from DC Supply voltage (OR being internally regulated by LM317 - i highly doubt, but not sure what jigglebones is implying)?

some mentioned hvs over and over again, I think earlier versions had the hvs, which didn't make sense, while on 3255 board it does make sense but the standard version was used.
