Description
SAFETY WARNING
These
amplifiers
connect
directly to
the
mains
supply.
Thus
depending
on what
country
you
are
in,
there
may
be

any
time

exposed.
In
addition,
DC
voltages
on
the
or-
der
of
140V
are
generated
by
the
power
supply.
These
DC
voltages
can remain
for
a
long time
(1/
2 hour
or longer)
after
the
unit
has been
switched
off
or
after
the
mains
voltage
has been
removed.

P300SX INPUT CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Typically the
components on
the
input
circuit
have
numbers
that
are
in
the
100 range
(e.g.
IC101,
C104,
R112,...).
The
input
circuit
for
the
P300Sx
consists
of
two
double
integrated
circuits.
The
first
integrated
cir-
cuit
IC101A
provides the mixing
for
the
balanced
20
Kohms
input.
IC102B
is
a high-pass
Sallen-
Kay
two-pole Buttenworth
1
2 dB/octave
filter
swit-
chable
between 125
Hz and
42
Hz.
IC102B
provides the
impedance
follower
for
the
volume
control
and
the
speaker
protection
circuits.
IC102A
provides
a second high-pass Sallen-Key
two-pole Buttenvorth
12 dB/octave
filter
switch-
able
between
1
25
Hz
and 42
Hz.

AMPLIFIER SECTION
Typically,
the
components
associated
with
the
main
amplifier
section
have
numbers
in
the
200
range
(e.g.
R201, C208, Q210, L201
,...).
The
power
amplifier
is
designed
to
be
able
to
effi-
ciently drive
a wide range
of
output loads
as
well
as
to
react well
to
capacitive loads.
The
first
part of
the
main
circuit
board
of
the
power
amplifier
is
the
input
differential pair.
In
fact, in
these
amplifiers,
everything
is
perfectly
