Hi dear jester 87, could you share the schematic of new protection circuit, with high/low side protection? I would like to use it in a new project, i would like to understand itCurrently working on 250W @ 4 ohms version using IRF6218/IRFB33N15D.
Reworked protection circuit, high/low side protection. Double sided PCB.
Will share schematics after I tested the prototype. 🙂

thanks jlester . can that protection it support 2 ohms @ +/- 45vlts??
Greetings mr.jlester
Pls share pcb files in pdf formate
Thank you
Thank you so much jlester87, I'm gonna use it in my new design...

Here's a quick layout, it's not the best but it will work. Size is less than 10cm x 10cm so manufacturing will be cheap.
You can put VER2923-333KL, ICE 1D23A-330M, T106-2, T106-6 (33uH)
I cannot share PDF because it is 2 layer and some traces are very thin.
Attached gerber file.

hi jlester thanks again for the share . how and where can i adjust the current for the amp protection?? i wanted to push the amplifier to 18amps.

Hi Stewin, you can lower R41 to 1k
or lower the value of current sense resistors since they will dissipate more power.

thanks jlester for the quick response . meaning if i want more like 30amps i can reduce both R41 and R42 to about 330ohms and use two parallel 0.1R in both +/- .


Shouldn't R5 be 33k if goal is to reduce IC2D offest?
hi mac , here is a photo for all to see better. r5 is circled in red

Hi stewin,
I = (550mV/CSR) x (R37xR42/R42)
here I = (0.55/.05)x (1kx10k/10k) = 11A
I= 0.55/.033 x 2.2k*1k/1k = 36A

In my amp BD139 & 140 are getting real hot. Is that case with your design or is it usual? The schematic is same no changes.
Any word of advice?
Thanks in advance
😎hi all finally smd version completed :UP: 😀😀
instead of bc337 and 327 i used mmbt 3904 and mmbt 4403 any comments are highly appreciated
but mmbt5401 and mmbt5551 i have and i will use. i use tl074 from ti (texas instruments) as they are the only ones which work with this circuit.
In your layout GND is treated very badly, has very high inductance between different points of it. You need a very much cleaner GND to avoid interferences.

No, only Rcs should be decreased to avoid excessive dissipation on them.
"(lower R41 to 1k) or (lower the value of current sense resistors)"
SMD equivalent of BC337/327 is BC817/807. MMBT3904 has much lower beta rolloff knee point, under 100 mA, while BC817 goes up to about 500 mA. I don't think this was a good change.
