Introduction
The IRAUDAMP11 Demo board is a reference design which uses only one IC (IRS2053M) to derive
appropriate input signals, amplify the audio input, and achieve a three-channel 120 W/ch (4Ω, THD+N=1%)
half-bridge Class D audio power amplifier. The reference design demonstrates how to use the IRS2053M
Class D audio controller and gate driver IC, implement protection circuits, and design an optimum PCB
layout using IRF6665 DirectFET MOSFETs. The reference design contains all the required housekeeping
power supplies for ease of use. The three-channel design is scalable, for power and number of channels.
Applications
AV receivers
Home theater systems
Mini component stereos
Powered speakers
Sub-woofers
