LM4732 Stereo 50W Audio Power Amplifier with Mute
July 2003
LM4732
Stereo 50W Audio Power Amplifier with Mute
General Description
The LM4732 is a stereo audio amplifier capable of typically
delivering 50W per channel of continuous average output
power into a 4Ω or 8Ω load with less than 10% THD+N from
20Hz - 20kHz.
The LM4732 has short circuit protection and a thermal shut
down feature that is activated when the die temperature
exceeds 150˚C. The LM4732 also has an under voltage lock
out feature for click and pop free power on and off.
Each amplifier of the LM4732 has an independent smooth
transition fade-in/out mute.
The LM4732 has a wide operating supply range from +/-10V
- +/-40V allowing for lower cost unregulated power supplies
to be used.
The LM4732 amplifiers can easily be configured for bridge or
parallel operation for 100W mono solutions.
