Alternating ON OFF Control

Use this circuit instead of a standard on-off switch. Switching is very gentle. Connect unused input pins
to an appropriate logic level. Unused output pins *MUST* be left open!. First push switches ON,
another push switches OFF. You can use 1/4 watt resistors if they are metal-film type. Any proper
substitute will work for Q1, including the european TUNs. For C2, if you find the relay acts not fast
enough, leave it out or change to a ceramic cap between 10 and 100nF.

Parts List
All resistors are 1/2 Watt and 5% tolerance.
R1 = 10K
R2 = 100K
R3 = 10K
C1 = 0.1µF, Ceramic
C2 = 1µF/16V, Electrolytic
D1= 1N4001
Q1 = 2N4401 (ECG123AP, NTE123AP, etc.)
IC1 = 4069, CMOS, Hex Inverter (14069), or equivalent
S1 = Momentary on-switch

Stereo Power Amplifier Circuit based on BA5417

BA5417 is a stereo amplifier IC with a lot of good features like thermal shut down, standby function, soft clipping, wide operating voltage range etc. The IC can deliver 5W per channel into 4 ohm loud speakers at 12V DC supply voltage. The BA5417 has excellent sound quality and low THD (total harmonic distortion) around 0.1% at F=1kHz; Pout=0.5W.

Stereo Power Amplifier  Circuit diagram :

Setup and working of this stereo power amplifier circuit is somewhat similar to the BA5406 based stereo amplifier circuit published previously. C10 and C11 are DC decoupling capacitors which block any DC level present in the input signals. C2 and C6 couples the amplifiers left and right power outputs to the corresponding loud speakers. C1 and C5 are bootstrap capacitors.

Bootstrapping is a method in which a portion of the amplifiers is taken and applied to the input. The prime objective of bootstrapping is to improve the input impedance. Networks R1,C3 and R2,C7 are meant for improving the high frequency stability of the circuit. C4 is the power supply filter capacitor. S1 is the standby switch. C8 is a filter capacitor. R3 and R4 sets the gain of the left and right channels of the amplifier in conjunction with the 39K internal feedback resistors.
Note :
  • Supply voltage range of BA5417 is from 6 to 15V DC.
  • The recommended supply voltage for this circuit is 12V DC.
  • The power supply must be well regulated and filtered.
  • BA5417 requires a heatsink.
  • The circuit can be assembled on a perf board without much degradation in performance.
