Headphone Amplifier Evaluation Board

Linear Integrated Systems headphone amplifier evaluation board is a complete, low-power stereo audio amplifier for high-fidelity line-level output and headphone applications. It consists of Linear Integrated Systems JFETs along with a number of other parts mounted on a circuit board.

Linear Integrated Systems headphone amplifier evaluation board includes the following features:

  • Stereo, single ended input and single ended output
  • 400 mW output power into 100Ω
  • Wide frequency response (10Hz?200kHz; ?1dB)
  • Voltage gain 5 (14dB)
  • Low distortion (THD+N is less than 1% at 10Hz?20kHz at 5Vrms into 100Ω and less than 0.1% from 10 Hz to 20 kHz at 1Vrms into 100Ω load)
  • Short circuit protection
  • Pop reduction (slow start) circuit
  • Defeatable cross feed circuit
  • Volume control
  • Overvoltage and reverse polarity power protection
  • Audio input and output connections: left and right RCA phono jack inputs, ¼” stereo phone jack output
  • External 9V–16V supply input
  • External power supply connector: power jack, inside diameter 2.1mm, outside diameter 5.5mm
