Hifonix 1606 Drivers

[mbates14]

I need substitutes for the 4 driver transistors in the power supply section that I can get from digikey?

thanks.

Not sure what the 1606 uses for originals but I always use BD139 and BD140 as subs in almost every amp without any issues.

The 1606 is the 4080 amp right?

 

[mbates14]

nope, it uses C3228 and A1275 for drivers, the KEC brand. Need something thats compatible and I can get from digikey.

Its the brutus BXi 1606D Same circuitry thats in the BRZ series. Perry knows.

i can get those C3228 and A1275 but bd139&bd140 will work

I know what you need. The BD139 and BD140 are what you need.

You can also buy the originals as well.

The 1606 uses a 4080 chip to drive the outputs. What I meant was the 1606 is the amp still using the 4080 chip.

1. Ok.

2. No you cant, at least not on digikey, which is the catch. only supplier i will use here, besides MCM

3. This is a 1606 amp, and it DOES NOT use the HIP4080.

If you can order the BD139 and BD140 from your supplier that's what I would use. I have used them in numerous Hifonics amps.

The last 1606 I worked on used a 4080. Must be different versions.

There are plenty of suppliers out there as good if not better than digikey or MCM. If you will not use anything but them that does limit your ability to get parts.

Good luck my friend.

BD139/140, motion seconded.

 

[timwebb]

the last bxi didnt use it.

 

[seankane]

I have seen them with and without the 4080. I am sure there are a few different versions.

 

[mbates14]

Hmm wonder why they did that.. Maybe different manufacturers?

I got it running, I yanked drivers off of a parts board, But i will stock some BD for future amps, as I am running out of parts boards. hehe. As far as other suppliers, i would be glad but I dont handle the money or suppliers. Thats another person.

 

[timwebb]

not sure the old 1600 is a retard. i wont touch a amp that use that audio ic.

 

[timwebb]

the bd's are good i use them as drive transistors in many amps

 

[mbates14]

Well, Why not work on the HIP4080 stuff? I never had an issue with it. Only one I had an issue with was the MMATS.

 

[seankane]

I have also found there are 2 versions of the BXi2006D as well.

One version uses N channel FETS only and the other uses N and P channel FETS.

I have worked on 4080 amps in the past, but the 4080 is sensitive to FET failure and such, they can be a pain sometimes.

Here is the 4080 version of the amp I was telling you about.

Here is the link the last one did not work. This is the 4080 version I was telling you about.

Still not working here is the item number.

That 4080 suck. They blow every time something gone wrong.

 

[mbates14]

Yea, I never have seen that version before.

Yes, the 4080 does suck. They really were never meant to be for a Class D system, they were designed to be motor speed/direction controllers.
