TPA3255 - all about DIY, Discussion, Design etc

My latest soundcard measurements. Note that the THD+N limit of my QA400 + Interface is 0.002% (the interface's power supply has no low noise LDO, it's only relying on the PSRR of opamps),

I'm also using a low noise supply for TPA3255, so the THD might be the more accurate indicator. Gain is 11.9x, supply rail 38V.,

5W, 8 ohms = 0.00046%
5W, 4 ohms = 0.0008%

I have the JLE board on the way to 'replace ' my 3e.

I use a 35v 500va toroid with 14 x2200uf each with 0.1 bypass.

I prefer the simplicity and reliability over SMPS. I did try a MW but could hear its PWM.

Mouser is out of the 10uh Coilcraft . Should I go for the 6.8uH.

Yes it's more than 115 but please belive me when I say we will keep the price low... Low for the " ultimate 3255" design.

I would love a head to head SQ vs any ganfet, purifi. The only one that scares me its benchmark ahb2. That's a different beast.

A few days ago we found a novel way to reduce harmonics. Inductors are fully charged and store energy while dead time gives no fast outlet for shunting the energy. I made a small circuit to help the shunting of emf... But I am not here to talk about thd. It made a difference in sq to our engineering team that's not prone to comment on sq

This novel way its not on any white papers or books. Our invention and I will make it public after some time as a way to pay back this community.

Remember my words, you mostly hear your psu and inductors...
