2 X 22 Watt Stereo Amplifier using IC TDA 1554

Stereo Amplifier Circuit

Description

Here is the circuit diagram of a  powerful and high quality stereo amplifier using IC TDA 1554.The circuit has only very few components.The circuit works best with a 4 Ohm speaker.

TDA1554 is a 4 x 11 watt integrated Class-B audio amplifier from Phillips.Since the IC can be operated from 12V it finds a lot of application in car audio systems.The TDA1554 has a lot of good features like thermal protection, reverse polarity protection, load dump protection, short circuit to ground protection, excellent ripple rejection, no switch ON/OFF thud etc. The IC can be wired in single ended or BTL (Bridge Tied Load) configuration and here in this circuit the later is used.

Notes

IC must be connected to a heat sink. A  computer cabinet fan can also be used in addition(not necessary).Any way better the cooling better the performance.The circuit roughly draws 5A current at 12 V at full volume.So the power supply must be any thing more than 5A.Up to 18 V can be used ,which gives a bit more power boost.Commonly used is 12 V.

12V 5A power supply for this project

A simple 12V,5A DC unregulated power supply is shown above. If 6A bridge is not available in your place you can make one using four 6A6 diodes and there will be no difference. 6A6 is  a 6 ampere ,600V silicaon rectifier diode. LED D2 is added in the circuit as a power ON indicator and resistor R2 limits the current through it. Capacitor C7 is the filter capacitor while C8 is an AC bypass capacitor .S1 is the ON/OFF switch. Replacing the 9V transformer with a 12V tranformer will increase the output voltage of the power supply to around 16V and you will get some extra power from the amp.

  • I like this schematic because it is very simple to impliment. Nice job men.

  • JAKUV says:

    and would need to send me the card printed to be able to do the same myself. thank you very much hope your answer now. tinytech99@yahoo.com

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Rohit National LM4780 and Sanyo STK4191V are the best choice if they are available.

  • Rohit Kumar says:

    Hello Seetharaman,

    Thanks for the tip, will get the PCB made,

    Another thing, from your point of advice, what is a good IC based circuit for a 60 to 70 watts two channel amplifier using single IC.

    Thanks and regards

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Rohit you can use the following document and get it made through any PCB maker.

  • Rohit Kumar says:

    Hello Seetharaman,

    Can i get hold of pcb for this circuit,

    thanks in advance

  • Seetharaman says:

    Hi Caloy the low frequency response with 0.22uF is 14Hz. Whereas the IC it self is designed to roll off below 45Hz. Hence you cannot hear any improvement in amplifier’s low frquency response.

  • CALOY says:

    mr.seetharaman im curious with the input coupling capacitors…the input coupling capacitors on the datasheet is 0.22uF w/c i followed…what would be the effect if i changed 0.22uF to 10uF???

  • Seetharaman says:

    Hi Patrick connect input coupling capacitor (C1 & C2)to 10K potentiometer and use it as volume control (the input impedance of the IC is quite low).

  • patrick vaz says:

    Hi Seetharaman,
    I want to induce a volume control for the above circuit, kindly advise where and what rating to be used.
    regards

    Still awaiting ur reply

    regards

  • Seetharaman says:

    Hi Caloy you require atleast 4amps power supply to feel the power in dual 22 watts mode. at very low volue 300mA is OK. the quiescent current with 18 volt supply itself is around 170mA so for getting power out you require aleast 2amps.

  • CALOY says:

    I just used 18 volts 300mA power supply for my experiment…

  • CALOY says:

    I just used a 18 volts 300mA power supply for my experiment…

  • Seetharaman says:

    Hi Caloy you have done the correct thing. 100k is just the right value to match output of 2822 and input of 1554Q.

  • CALOY says:

    i made this amp together with TDA2822M and i put a 100k ohm series between the output of TDA2822M and input of TDA1554Q…
    this is just an experiment of mine and its my first time to do an amplifier…

  • Seattle Pest Control says:

    Awesome insight as always. Keep it up.

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan you can use it as bridged amplifier to get 80watts of power full detail is available in the following link.
    http://www.datasheetcatalog.org/datasheet/stmicroelectronics/1565.pdf

  • adnan says:

    i want to get above 70watts from TDA7295 plz suggest the power supply circuit and tell all the components

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan nothing will happen. Power supply voltage should not increase above safe operating limit of the IC. current requirements depends on the load and the volume kept. even though the power supply is capable of giving higher current the amp will draw only the required current.

  • adnan says:

    for this Ic we have to use 12v at 5A to get 22 watts per channel but if i connect a 12v 12amp supply what will happen is the IC will works or get burn?

  • seetharaman says:

    24 – 0 24 at 10amps

  • adnan says:

    how much voltage & amperes of transformer will required for powering two TDA7295 at a time?

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan you cannot. 24-0-24 is ok for one TDA7295.

  • adnan says:

    if i power two TDA7295 from 24-0-24 4 amperes transformer at a time will how much the total power i’ll get??

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan refer specification you can never get 100 watts from this IC. Maximum peak RMS is 80watts for one sec but it can give you 50watts RMS continuous. This is tha capability of this IC.

  • adnan says:

    is there possible to get 100watts or not from TDA7295 at 24-0-24 4ampere transformer???

  • adnan says:

    is there possible to get 100watts or not???

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan you will get around 100watts per channel but as per the IC datasheet it will get limitted to 80 watts trnsient RMS

  • adnan says:

    if i use 24-0-24 4 amp transformer for the TDA7295 what will be the output at 6ohm load????

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan 24-0-24 4 amps will be ok for stereo amp. For 4 channels it is insufficient the output will get limitted to 40watts if all the four channels are driven together. At high volumes it will be blaring and fully distorted.

  • adnan says:

    can i use 24-0-24 4amperes transformer instead of 24-0-24 2.5amp?????????
    and if i drive two Ic’s at a time with 24-0-24 4 amperes transformer what will be the output of one Ic???

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan TDA7295 spec says it can give a peak rms of 80 watts into 8 ohms load just for 1 sec.
    Music Power (RMS) (*) Dt = 1s d = 10%;
    RL = 8W ; VS = ±34V 80Watts
    (***) RL = 4W; VS = ±26V 80watts
    For 8 ohms load you require 24 – 0 – 24 volt AC at 2.5 amps per channel you have to use around 10000uF filter capacitor for both positive and negative voltage to sustain transient.

  • adnan says:

    but one ic can give 80Watts according to the datasheet
    i want approx 70 to 75watts from an ic so what rating of transformer i have to use???

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan you cannot exceed plus minus 30volt DC. plus minus 40 is absolute maximum voltage and can not be used. you can use a 21 – 0 – 21 volt transformer with 2.5amps rating, which will give you the required plus minus 30 volt DC is sufficient to get 50wats RMS per channel

  • adnan says:

    the ic TDA7295 requires 40v-40v 6 amperes on a single ic
    i have two tda7295 and i want to use ic as right and left channel with a single transformer how much voltage and ampere rating of transformer i have to use tell me?

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan not possible you can bridge only two amplifiers.

  • adnan says:

    if i connect pin no 6 and 12 into speakers left and right input will it give 44 watts?

  • seetharaman says:

    Hi Adnan with 12 volt 1 amp transformer you will be giving 12 watts energy input with 80% efficiency you will get approximately 10 watt out put. that will be 5 watts per channel in dual channel mode, in quad you will get 2.5 watts per channel.
    A good quality 12 volt 5 amp transformer is the most suited one for this IC to get 22 watts per channel into 4 ohms load.

  • adnan says:

    now i am using the 12v 1 ampere transformer what will be the loss or effect on output?

  • adnan says:

    can i use 12 volts 6 amperes transformer for this amplifier????
