BRIDGE APPLICATION

Another application suggestion is the BRIDGE

configuration, where two TDA7296 are used, as

shown by the schematic diagram of figure 25.

In this application, the value of the load must not

be lower than 8 Ohm for dissipation and current

capability reasons.

A suitable field of application includes HI-FI/TV

subwoofers realizations.

The main advantages offered by this solution are:

- High power performances with limited supply

voltage level.

- Considerably high output power even with high

load values (i.e. 16 Ohm).

The characteristics shown by figures 20 and 21,

measured with loads respectively 8 Ohm and 16

Ohm.

With Rl= 8 Ohm, Vs =

±18V the maximum output

power obtainable is 60W, while with Rl=16 Ohm,

Vs =

±24V the maximum Pout is 60W.
