Toshiba TA8233H Fully Built Chip Amp

Toshiba TA8233H fully built chip amp 30wpc BTL stereo

Designed & built by polish enthusiast Fryderyk Wrobel (FRD1996) based on Toshiba datasheet circuit diagram compete with generous heatsinking & all cables soldered into the board for power, input & output and including a pair of russian military matched output capacitors (see detailed pix)

The TA8233H was originally supplied to the automobile market and it will run on any DC PSU in the range of 9-18 vdc including of course 12v car battery

The TA8233H chip amp is highly regarded especially in Polish hi-fi circles and this is a great simple well-designed board, for anyone who wants to give it a go. only used once to test it working. part of a larger project that never came to pass

These chips are now somewhat difficult to find new (as this one is) with most pulled from used equipment

Looking for £40

Would prefer to post only to UK. Royal Mail 2nd class small parcel cost of £3, but pleased to use more secure service for royal mail cost

Thanks

In India, this was common, car units inside a wooden cabinet, with a linear power supply.
I pay about 4 quid for a new car radio, with FM, USB, Bluetooth etc.
Of course, there are more expensive options, Sony and Kenwood start about 30 quid, brand new.

And of course, there are buyers for everything.
Good Luck.
 
Interesting. You should import new car radios to UK at those prices!

Over here, to design and have manufacturered a good quality bespoke PCB, stuffed with good components and Russian military-spec film output caps, ignoring the time to put it together with appropriate heat sinking ... £40 doesn't seem excessive.

In Poland these Toshiba TA8233H chip amps are highly regarded for sound quality.
