STK Power amplifier circuit,100W-150W using STK4048

If you are looking for a high-quality 100w-150w amplifier with low distortion. This may be a good choice. Some called it STK power amplifier series are hybrid IC of Sanyo.

Why is it interesting?

STK power amplifier circuit has low distortion of about 0.003% only.

The heart working of this circuit is the hybrid IC of Sanyo. It is usually found in expensive audio equipment.

ICs STK watts list

The ICs that use has three wattages to choose the number below.

STK4044XI = 100W
STK4046XI = 120W
STK4048XI = 150W

As the following table shows the features of the IC table 1.
IC family STK4044XI, STK4048XI have developed various models from STK4044II, STK4044V, and STK4044X respectively, Until the STK4044XI model we use in this circuit.

Table 1 the datasheet of STK4036XI Series

The IC has the internal circuit different due to improved, which external circuit can be used instead of directly.

For this reason, we say that. Be careful before buying it Some may be subjected to such a low-quality version of the ICA STK4044II.

Table 2 compare STK4036II and STK4036XI

Consider the comparison feature of Table 2, you will know the difference.

See real STK4048XI. You may buy it at Amazon.com

Figure 1 will see that the internal circuit in STK4044XI and STK4048XI that will be have the beginning circuits same together will be different than the output section of STK4048XI will have two output transistors to parallel, allowing for increased wattages up to 150 watts.

See inside IC STK amplifier circuit

Thus, at 15 pins of first will be same, but in this circuit have the output and input pins are 3 pins only as figure

See The real schematic circuit diagram of this project

In the PCB layout and components layout which we are designed to be shared by the three numbers as above, if the number STK4044XI released them float the 16-18 pins.

How it builds

Connect the device to the circuit properly, especially since the electrolytic capacitors do not reverse polarity is strictly prohibited. Because of the relatively high power circuits used in capacitors may explode easily.

When an assembly is complete, connect the power supply voltage to this circuit.

Caution! This project needs to use the speaker protection circuit. Otherwise, your speaker may be damaged.
