Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPA1517, LM1877, LM386, LM4880, TPA6205A1

Could you provide graph about output power vs supply voltage with following devices and conditions.
I am maiking a search headphone amp which can drive about 120mW with these condirions.

<condition>
33 ohm
THD=1%

<device>
TPA1517
LM1877
LM386

Hi Yoshihiro,

These devices are quite old and it could be difficult to get the plots you are requesting. I would suggest you to use our Audio Selection Tool and take a look to our latest Headphone Amplifiers. Maybe LM4880

Dear Diego-san

Thank you for your replay.

LM4880 don't meet our spec.
Now, we are considering follow spec.
So, I selected TPA1517, LM1877 and LM386.

<Spec>
RL= 33 ohm
THD = 1 %
Po = 120mW

Could you let me Minimum Supply Voltage about these spec?
I hope your data is included a device efficiency.

Hi Hirata-san,

I think you can take a look at TPA6205A1, it should be able to provide 0.2 W @ 3.6 V / 32 Ohm / THD+N = 1%.

You can see its performance at Typical Characteristics section, mainly Figure 2 and Figure 3.

I hope this suggestion fits better to your specs.

Dear Ivan-san,

Thank you for your advice.
TPA6205A1 is BTL output AMP.
I want to use SE output AMP. Because it is easy to use in headphone jack system.
