Car stereo amplifier is very important.
It makes sound signal strong and give power to speaker so they work good.
This Car Stereo Amplifier Circuit using IC TDA1553 chip is strong for Class B amplifier.
Chip is made for car radios and is small in size, work well and need few parts to make.
It can run two 4 ohm speakers.
Sound come out strong and clear and music sounds better.
Circuit Working:

Parts List:
Component Type | Description | Quantity |
---|---|---|
Capacitors | Ceramic 100nF | 1 |
Ceramic 220nF | 2 | |
Electrolytic 2200μF 25V | 1 | |
Electrolytic 4.7μF 25V | 1 | |
Semiconductors | IC TDA1553 | 1 |
4Ω speakers | 2 | |
On Off switch | 1 |
The above circuit diagram shows TDA1553 IC, some capacitors and two 4 ohm speakers.
It works with 12V DC and is usually from car battery.
C1 and C2 capacitors help clean and steady the power and removes noise.
Audio input right goes to pin 1 and left goes to pin 13 on IC.
C4 and C5 block DC from input and keep signal clean.
TDA1553 works in BTL mode by using two amps for each channel and this gives more power.
Amplifier sends strong sound to speaker1 right and speaker2 left.
There is also an On/Off switch which can change mode with standby, mute or normal.
It is good for saving power and cutting noise.
Formulas with Calculations:
Power Output (Pout):
For Class B amplifier is in bridge mode:
Pout = Vsupply² / (2 × Rload)
here,
- Vsupply is 12V
- Rload is 4Ω
So,
Pout = 12² / (2 × 4) = 144 / 8 = 18W per channel
Total = 18W × 2 = 36W for 2 channels
Heat Dissipation:
Amplifier makes heat when working.
Heat = Power from supply − Power to speakers
Pheat = Psupply − Pout
Psupply = Isupply × Vsupply
where,
- Pout is 36W
Use heat sink for IC which helps keep it cool and safe.
How to Build:
To build a Car Stereo Amplifier Circuit using IC TDA1553 follow the below mentioned steps for assembling and connections
- Gather all the parts as shown in circuit diagram
- Pin 1 of IC1 connects to C4 and GND
- Pin 2, 5, 8 of IC1 connects to GND
