Hello there!
I have two goals:
Other than any feedback you have I am wondering:
This is the circuit I get and the simulation with a 8-ohm load. I didn't set the ESR of the capacitors. I cannot measure it right now.
I have two goals:
- Get a capacitance multiplier for a chip amp (TDA7377 / STA540)
- Learn how to make a PCB with Kicad
Other than any feedback you have I am wondering:
- Maybe more than one output transistor is overkill but I'd like to keep at least two to have them run cool. Is it OK?
- I have a small dual-40mh coil. Is it useful to make a low-pass before the BD139 base with it? BTW, I joined pins to make a single coil and measured 120mH. Wondering if that's useful.

Also needs a protection diode between the output (anode) and the BD139 base (cathode).
Thanks! Added. Also spitted the first capacitor and they're 2 x 4700uF now.
Hello,
Are you sure this kind of choke can be used? Looks more like one used for AC ( no airgap).
So called common mode choke. If you connect it differently it will probably run really hot
But wait for the real experts.

Hi Eduard.
Not sure 🙂 I am not using it now, unless I get confirmation it's a good idea and that it doesn't introduce oscillations.
The idea is to use it in a low pass. The current I get through it in the simulation is 150mA. I added to the diagram below. Symbols crossed in red are for the simulation and not for the PCB.
