Apply a ±2.5V to ±17V power supply's voltage to the respec-
tive "V
+
", "GND" and "V
-
" pins on JU19
Apply a stereo audio signal to the RCA jacks J1 (Right) and
J2 (Left) or jumpers JU1 (Right) and JU17 (Left), observing
the signal input pin and the ground (GND) pin. Though not
typically installed, a stereo signal can also be applied to head-
phone jack HPJ1.
Connect a load to JU14 (Left) and another load to JU15
(Right), observing the signal output pin and the ground (GND)
pin. The stereo signal output is also available on the 1/8"
stereo headphone jack located in the board's "OUTPUT" sec-
tion

Use VR1 to control the output signal amplitude.
Apply power. Make measurements. Plug in a pair of head-
phones. Enjoy.
Introduction
To help the user investigate and evaluate the LME49600's
performance and capabilities, a fully populated demonstration
board was created. Please contact the National Semiconduc-
tor Corporation's Audio Products Group for availability. This
board is shown in Figure 1. Connected to an external power
supply (±2.5V to ±17V ) and a signal source. The LME49600
demonstration board easily demonstrates the amplifier's fea-
tures.
