GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SPiKe Protection means that these parts are completely safeguarded at the output against overvoltage, undervoltage, overloads, including shorts to the supplies, thermal runaway, and instantaneous temperature peaks. It exhibits extremely low (THD + N) values of 0.03% at the rated output into the rated load over the audio spectrum, and provides excellent linearity with an IMD (SMPTE) typical rating of 0.004%. 38W cont. avg. output power into 8Ω at VCC = ± 28V 50W cont. avg. output power into 8Ω at VCC = ± 35V 135W instantaneous peak output power capability Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 92 dB An input mute function Output protection from a short to ground or to the supplies via internal current limiting circuitry n Output over-voltage protection against transients from inductive loads n Supply under-voltage protection, not allowing internal biasing to occur when |VEE| + |VCC| ≤ 12V, thus eliminating turn-on and turn-off transients n 11-lead TO-220 package n n n n n n Applica...
