35 Watt Bridge Amplifier Circuit using TDA2030 IC

This 35 Watt Bridge Amplifier Circuit using TDA2030 IC show how to make 35 watt amplifier circuit.

This circuit is very powerful.

It uses one special chip named TDA2030 but is used for different way to make double power output.

This make speaker sound more loud.

Be careful circuit uses high voltage and it can be dangerous.

Better do it with an adult or someone who knows electric work.

Electrician should fix it at home.

This project is not for beginner.

Circuit Working:

Parts List:

When we connect two TDA2030 amplifiers with cheap power transistors then we can get more power output.

This circuit show amplifier gain of 32 dB.

TIP transistors used to change speaker impedance from 4 ohms to 2 ohms.

TDA2030 from SGS is strong audio amplifier.

This AB class amplifier gives around 14W at 4 ohms when power is ±14V.

With good power supply it can give output up to 35W.

Formulas:

TDA2030 is popular for audio because it work good and design is simple.

Here some important formulas for TDA2030:

Output Power:

To find power output Pout it uses this formula:

Pout = (Vpeak × Ipeak)² / (8 × RL)

where:

• Vpeak is max output voltage
• Ipeak is max output current
• RL is speaker resistance

Power Loss:

To find power loss Pdiss uses this formula:

Pdiss = (VCC − VEE) × IQ

where:

• VCC is positive supply
• VEE is negative supply
• IQ is current when there is no signal

Voltage Gain:

Gain is calculated like this:

Av = Rf / Ri

where:

• Rf is feedback resistor
• Ri is input resistor

Frequency Response:

TDA2030 work in 20 Hz to 20 kHz range and it depends on extra parts like resistors and capacitors.

Slew Rate:

Slew rate SR tell how fast output voltage can change and we can find it in datasheet.

These formulas help to build and test TDA2030 circuits.

Values change based on our circuit and what we want.

Always check datasheet for correct information.

How to Build:

To build a 35 Watt Bridge Amplifier Circuit using TDA2030 IC following are the steps required to be followed:

Schematic Design:

• Make schematic for connecting two TDA2030 chips with power transistors.
• We can find this in datasheet.

Component Selection:

• Choose correct resistors, capacitors and other parts from circuit diagram.
• Be sure values are good for this circuit.

Circuit Assembly:

• If we use PCB then follow schematic and solder parts on board.
• If we use breadboard then connect all parts carefully like in diagram.

Connect the TDA2030 ICs:

• Join input and output of TDA2030 as shown in circuit.
• Use correct coupling capacitors when needed.

Connect the Power Transistors:

• Connect TDA2030 output pin to TIP31 and TIP32 transistors as shown.
• Be sure each transistor have proper heat sink to stop overheating.

Power Supply Connection:

• Connect circuit to power supply.
• Voltage must be in safe range, like ±14V.

Testing:

• Turn ON amplifier.
• Use multimeter to check voltage at main points.
• Check there is no short circuit.
• Play audio and connect speaker to output pin.
• See if sound comes good.

Adjustments:

• If needed change resistor or capacitor to fix gain or improve sound.

Final Enclosure:

• If circuit works good then put it in strong box or case for safety.

Conclusion:

Making 35 Watt Bridge Amplifier Circuit using TDA2030 IC is not easy as it needs good knowledge in electronics.

Also we need to follow safety rules and maybe use software to design.

Always use good resources like datasheets and guides.

Work safe when handle high power circuits.
