The Micro AMP 2 is a double amplifier. The first is a Bridge-Tied Load (BTL) class-B amplifier. The output
power is 2x25W in a 4 Ohms load or 2x40W in a 2 Ohms load. The second is an headphone amplifier
capable of delivering 250mW of continuous average power to an 8 Ohms load with 0.1% THD+N

Power supply: If the application requires a regulated and filtered power supply or a battery, it must be
12V DC, even though the power switch can accept tension between 7v and 15V.
DC 2.1mm / 5.5mm connector - Positive in the center.

Amplifier 1 : Speaker output
●Power supply : 7v to 15v
●Thermal protection
●Power output :
- VP = 14.4v - SP = 2 ohms -> THD = 0.5% : 30W / THD = 10% : 40W
- VP = 12v - SP = 2 ohms -> THD = 0.5% : 18W / THD = 10% : 24W
- VP = 14,4v - SP = 4 ohms -> THD = 0.5% : 19W / THD = 10% : 25W
- VP = 12v - SP = 4 ohms -> THD = 0.5% : 12W / THD = 10% : 16W
4 - Specifications
You can use a second amplifier using the same audio source. Just
connect the line audio output to the line audio input of the second
amplifier.
