I have tested these units extensively and now use them in a professional sound reinforcement application. When connected and used properly they deliver truly excellent performance. Unfortunately, this UA-cam video shows very improper use. Here are some notes: 1. Choose a power supply appropriate to the speaker load. For an 8 ohm speaker, the optimum voltage is 63V. For a 4 ohm speaker use a 45V supply. The formula: V = sqrt(500W * speaker_impedance). 2. Class D amps, such as this one, work by switching their outputs high and low at frequencies far above the audible range. What you see as "oscillation" on the output is actually the carrier frequency. Under normal conditions (connected to a speaker load) the carrier signal is about 2 Volts. Because we cannot hear above 20 kHz, and the loudspeaker cannot reproduce sound at that frequency, this carrier leakage is not a problem. According to the manufacturer, the switching frequency should be close to 400 kHz (as it is in the modules I have purchased). The small potentiometer near the input is used to adjust that frequency. This adjustment is necessary or advisable ONLY if you have multiple modules running off of the same power supply. Improper settings greatly reduce the efficiency of the circuit and can result in overheating. 3. NEVER APPLY POWER TO THE AMP WITHOUT FIRST CONNECTING A LOAD! For testing, you can use high power resistors. The output of the amp drives a low-pass filter. The 10 Ohm resistor is burning out because, without a proper load, the amp is delivering its high frequency carrier frequency across that filter network. 4. Toucing the input leads with your hands as you have done here, effectively couples AC line noise to the amp by using your body as an antenna. Depending on the environment, this can be several volts and can easily drive the amplifier to its full output power, potentially burning out your speaker. NEVER DO THIS! Attach the input to a proper source such as a music device or function generator. ========= On my bench, these amps deliver their full rated power. The signal to noise ratio (SINAD) is better than 80 dB (the limit of my test equipment), meaning that they are basically noise free. Silent, really. The frequency response is flat over the entire audio range. Other comments: -- The power and speaker connectors are cheap and flimsy. You can purchase quality 0.2" spacing Phoenix connectors on the web inexpensively, and replace these. -- The Chinese amp is based on a reference design published by the manufacturer (Infineon Technologies). For some reason, the Chinese amp uses a 100 Ohm resistor for R13 (near the input connector). The recommended value is 3.1K. I have replaced mine with 3.3K devices. This replacement is a bit tough for hobbyists, as they are surface mounted resistors. -- Even though the amp is close to 90% efficient, at full load, it must still dissipate 50W as heat. The fan and heat sink on this unit are marginal, and the output transistors are not attached properly to the heat sink. At a minimum, be sure that you have good ventilation near the power amp. A much better choice is to replace the heat sink and fan. In my case, I desolder the output MOSFETS from the board, and attach them to a proper heat sink. I then resolder the transistors to the underside of the board,. This allows me much greater flexibility in heat sink design. -- You may find it desirable to add some filter capacitors across the power supply input lines. Several thousand microfarads will help. Be sure to use capacitors with voltage ratings at least 20% higher than the supply voltage. Place these as close as possible to the amp to reduce the resistive losses from the power supply wires.
Thank you so much! I didn't succeed and I gave up to easy, but all your comments and some others here make me rethinking the project..but I'll try another approach with a classic transformer rectifier capacitors power supply..I think that PSU I used wasn't exactly in order for this kind of amplifiers..again, thanks for advice!
Thank you for your knowledgeable post about using these things. My intent is to use a couple in a bass guitar amplifier for outdoor concerts. Reliability at high power is essential.
I finally got that $15 500watt Chinese Amp operational last night. Dang!!! Its loud. The way I have it hooked up is 58VDC so it will prolly be just over 100Watts RMS. Mebby 113W. But the power supply runs Hot. roughly bout the same heat as 2 100 watt light bulbs so I need a fan on the power resistors. Calculated power draw from the plug is 1.17 Amps. Its a Power Amp chip made by Infinion. I think its an American company. So far I'm impressed. I can plug a guitar right into the input no preamp needed. But it needs a volume control. My ears are still ringing. The PS is just a full wave bridge rectifier plugged into 117VAC wall plug, then DC is divided by 2 100watt 50 ohm resistors screwed down to a large heat sink, and filtered by 2 1000uf 100v caps. 100 watts is all Im after so I may add another 10 or 20 ohms to the resistor divider for less heat.
Here you have a very nice forensic electronic work I may say from Engineering Essentials '' R13 modification (10 ohm to 3k) that was successful, capacitor blown up due to sustained oscillation at output. Changed capacitor. I probed every pin and point of the board. The board is very small for the purpose and the resistors are of less wattage than recommended. But it works after R13 modification, 2Hr played with high volume no problem so far. That 10Ohm resistance is just warm but the big toroid filter is getting hot during operation, even switches are very cool. Do the modification it is worth the money.'' Thanks for sharing !!
@@viocaia can this solve my problem? I bought this amplifier, I tried 58 + 58 73 + 73, the speaker resistance is 4 ohm, 8 ohm, when a signal is applied, the amplifier goes into protection and the speaker claps, when a very quiet signal is applied, there is sound
hello, its working good , i use dc 60v +/- , i am tested with transformer and smps everything its good , i installed use power suply transformer ac45 ct 45v (under ac45 not working) and use 2 capacitor 10000 uf 70v , dioda bridge 10A ...loud and clear
I INSTALLED this on a powered sub as a replacement amp, I HAD SIMULAR ISSUES , it worked great after i used a lower voltage power supply 45v+/- and lower capacitance on the power supply 1500uf
hi there is a error on these amp.. resistor R13 close to the trimpot is only 100 ohm and this is way to small change it to 3kohm and the amp don´t osc anymore..these amp needs very high input so use a buffer in front.. i use two af these in brigde mode driving 2 15 inch in a bandpass disco sub and they really put out some serius power...the subfilter you show is really bad and don´t work probleby..
Hello, the board is only 250W @ 4 ohms maximum. Chinese manufacturers have difficulty understanding that two 250W channels operating in bridge are needed to provide 500W of power. This board is based on the electronic schematic of IRAUDAMP7S, but resistors R13 (100R) and R15 (130k) appear in the diagram with different values, R7 (3.01k) and R8 (120k).
(For IRAUDAMP7S) NOTE: Potentiometer P1A and P1B have been set to zero ohms. This is configured as a 2 terminal variable resistor. This should be set to 200 ohms. This will give a nominal operational frequency of 400kHz for the amplifier module. Check the tightness of the devices on the heatsink. (Source: larrynz911)
I gave up with this..they sound bad and lots of problem..classic AB it's for me the best! Much more expensive of course but totally different sound quality.
@@apc2729 You just make me try it again...I'll be back..properly this time! Thanks! Did you make any mods to your board..like better cooling, resistors..capacitors..anything?
***Tip*** That adjustment is to match two or more modules to the same operating frequency, also note with Class D Amp it's a good idea to run one amplifier with an inverted signal to cancel out Power supply bumping and, and I stress it also helps to cancel out distortion, one more thing if one channel is fed with an inverted signal that modules speaker needs to be reverse polarity.
Hi Viorel, thanks for the video. Not cientific, but nice as an information. Class D amps require special care ;-) and all of these gadgets are minimalist! Do never use the kind of SMPS or Class-D amp without additional measures like additional filtering and shielding. If you chek the IRS2092 data sheet you can see, what this unit CAN achieve! If it is used correctly and professionally. WIll keep yu informed about mine (to arrive in 2 weeks ;-) PD.: I hope you know, voltages > 60V DC are considered lethally dangerous! (Check safety standards of your country).
Super! It's exactly what we need, to learn from each other and why not saving some money not doing the same mistakes.Let us know how is your project going.There are also a lot of nice info from the others in the comments!
Check the r13 of board near the audio signal side. It should be 3k. Not 100e I bought one, which had manufacturing error. Replaced r13 with 3.3k and it worked like charm
What would explain loud clicks about every half second. Im using +-53v and 4 ohm sub. There is a preamp. Replaced the 100 ohm with 3.3k resistor. Its like it never fully turns on, heat sink cool to the touch. Has not produced sound just really loud thumps every couple of seconds.
Follow the comments, there are few solutions. Personal, I didn't succeed to make one sound good. I just gave up. Clicks, probably from auto oscillation of some sort.
Be sure I did all the right levels, there is a a flow in design, please read the comments, there are solves to the problem.I'll be back soon with some more testing, now with a classic power supply.
@@viocaia no, from the mobile phone audio out , you will get only 200 milli volt maximum ( which is designed to use with earphone or any other amp which has pre amp ) so, why didn't you add a pre amp before power amp? Pre amp is so simple and measure input signal voltage also. ........It seems you are a beginner ( you might be used only some ready made amp or simple class AB circuit only )
If you hook yourself up to the input of an oscilloscope, you should discover not only that mains hum but some other electronic noise, and class D amplifiers being Class D amplifiers they can amplify those signals that you can't normally hear "Frequencies Beyond our ears abilities", So long story short when you touch the inputs without any attenuation "Volume control or preamplifier connected properly via shielded audio lead your amplifier may be driven beyond its designed output with signals that you cant hear, thus frying the sacrificial resistor..
He is telling about the Input signal of 1.5v (input musical power) Well from where u got this SMPS of dual power output and what is its chopping frequency,,, pls suggest
@@viocaia don't connect any mobile phone directly to this amolifier without a pre amp , this amp need 1.5 volt ( atleast 1.2 volt ) of input signal . A simple pre amp using ne5532 will do this job very good
What power supply do you recommend for 100watts RMS? And, whats it sound like? Some of these "D:" class amps have all the high fidelity of an Ice Machine at a Motel 6.
I believe +-50V will be ok for 100W. The sound it's typical class D, kind of ''trumpet'' but pretty ok for a subwoofer. There are some mods you can do for better behave. Check the comments, plenty of good advices.
With Class D Amplifiers you should never EVER touch the inputs, and that's because class D amplifiers amplify way past the audio range both below and above it, ergo when you touch the input you are feeding it extremely high voltages that you body naturally has, and these voltages drive the amp beyond what it can handle. Class D Amplifiers are switching at a extremely high frequency "beyond our hearing range" this high frequency is used to switch the output mosfets off and on at around 300Khz~600Khz, This key frequency is a square wave and to simplify this wave is a reference to switch the Output Mosfets off and on alternately, anyway long story short, that adjusting resistor sets your wave form so that the Mosfet's are switched with some dead time in between, as one works one way whilst the other after some dead time works the other way, now that oscilloscope you are using needs to measure up to at least a 1 to 2 Mhz at the very least, because you will need to adjust that resistor to the optimum frequency "usually factory set" if the module is prebuilt, change it at your own risk, if you built the amp from scratch only then will you have to adjust it for the right frequency ergo the right amount of dead time "dead time is critical if you don't want your components to blow up", also if you are setting up a stereo configuration you need to set both amplifier modules to the same optimum frequency, Check both and see which one is working at it's most optimum and then adjust the other to match it precisely, so that most if not all distortion is cancelled out especially if you invert one of the channels, once setup, they/it will drive your amplifier to it full potential, in your case a fair dinkum 500 Watts, don't forget to keep track of the phase of your signals if-n you have a stereo setup and have one with an inverted signal, also remember for that module it's speaker output is reverse phased, ergo put back into phase by treating the negative as positive and the positive as negative, if your amplifiers are not set up right you wont get the clean and powerful out put that these amplifiers are blessed with. Good Luck..
@@victorponce5039 100 Ohm? to 3.1 Kilo Ohm? 😲 Typing mistake maybe?? Anyway.. No.. Unless the manufacturer or circuit designer has changed things to improve function or perhaps to improve reliability. I'm curious??? What other components are being changed?..
That is the filter for if there is no speaker, if it smokes there is a hig freqention oscilation, never use the vingers to test, because you give also rf through.
that's good small pack but hard to fix disposable expensive for me, so i'd rather choose an LM3886 or Stk 4142, or TDA7294,TDA2030, TDA 1515, just for me
Cha nge 100 ohm resistence to 2.2k ohm, and do not tuch pre amp in wires, than in put signel voltage will be 1.2volts from pre amp .do this it will be work well.
You should not power on the circuit without connecting the load (woofer), resistance blew off because of this. And the board did not perform well because it needs at least 1.5 watt rms from audio source so you first need to either amplify the source or use a mixer in the source.
1.5watt? for input? I'm confused! And of course the amplifier was connected to the loudspeaker before power up.Believe me is not the first I tested in my life!
I meant 1.5 volt rms voltage sensitivity is required for input source, would not work well with mobile air laptop source. Let me send you a link where it is written in description, although user manual for this board says that no amplification is required.
The link for manual. www.google.com/url?q=www.parts-express.com/pedocs/brochures/320-313-parts-express-brochure.pdf&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwjw0b_6zIHoAhVDzDgGHRgoBIMQFjAAegQIChAB&usg=AOvVaw3OimGh5fMnyG818-fzi87x
50watts lol this guy is funny ive use this to a 300rms speaker and it can drive it very well you should use eq to o filter if you want to use is as a sub woofer
I have a couple of those modules, my question is how to connect them to the audio input correctly since I tried in several ways and I have a very strong buzz in the audio output
I just recall that power supply provides 600W so maybe with a better capacitors battery will be good enough ..but you better search for a more powerful one..like 1000W.This maplifiers are really need current..a lot!
@@jesusdaniel3536 Please read the comment before..For the SMPS please search Aliexpress..that's where I bought it..so you need a diferential -+ max 60V DC ! Not more..
Consider P=U*I so for 1000W audio power you need at least 1200W DC..you need like 60V DC, maybe max 65V...and amps... 1200W/65V=18.5A...let's say 20Amps.When AC is rectified to DC you multiply it by a factor of 1.414, because your AC voltage is being measured in RMS because its a sine wave, so for 65V DC the transformer should deliver 2x47V DC...finally , a good 2x47V AC at 20A !
They said max +-70V, I used +-60V and it was a fiasco as you see.Probably at lower voltage it will work ..I just gave up the project , there are to many issues with this boards.Read the comments , you can find lots of fixings.
But when you buy a product it should work! They said is tested and everything ready to go! As you see I had good power supply , good connections and ...magic smoke! So, don't bother to prove me wrong! I'm buiyng something, that shit should work! Not burning the house!
Another channels are sponsored by sellers or producers, so they have to come with positive reviews.But if you care to read the comments here, ypu'll see that lot of people faced the same issues like me..I'm I wrong?
I connected it to my +-60v llc smps and it smells bad plastic then.Fans are still working.I connected it to speakers and it oscillates i think.It sounds drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Shortcut the input.It should be dead silent...if you can lower the power supply voltage.if you have an oscilloscope check for output oscilations and tge working frequency 400khz, adjust from the little trimmer on the board..
@@viocaia Hi.My oscilloscope is about 40years old and not working well.Thank god one channel is working :) In other youtube channel someone suggested not to start amplifier without connecting the speaker.And i am already using them for subwoofers and 400kHz very high and not necessary! I will check other one tomorrow.Thank you!
@@crazy_istanbul_cat this is a class D amplifier, is working with PWM pulse wide modulation, 400khz is necesary for ''scanning'' the audio signal, is not ment to be reproduced...so, check the mosfet integrity...maybe is one blown..good luck!
Yes , it should be red, but check the board, GND should be the biggest track...anyway , it's strange piece of amplifier, I just gave up long ago..it was to much tweaks and peaks and no results...
it seems like these types of amp boards can only be useful for someone like you with electrical knowledge. otherwise, it would useless for the average person. and that's exactly what I wanted to know..
@@viocaia that same board is sold on Amazon for 32$.. BUT. as soon as I saw the resistor smoking and you had to replace it. made think this might not be such a good deal. aside from the fact that wouldn't know what power supply to buy for that board. I don't know how to calculate the power supply need for any of these subwoofer boards. I have 4 car subwoofers.(at home) each one with 200 watts RMS.

@@JadeB628 Not more than 2x65V DC and around 600W, this is a double power supply with 2 voltages, differential +-, there are so called SMPS power supplies light and easy to install.You can give a try , will cost maybe 40USD.

( I trust your judgment) BTW I need a 220V AC to DC power supply and not 110v. thank you so much
@@viocaia BTW. I saw that many people are using a car amp with a PC power supply. I don't know how safe it is. but I do have 2 spare PC power supplies.
watched your video, and I got exact same problems.. smoking resistor. and if I connected a dummy of 4 ohm without any input, the coils are getting very hot, 80 degrees celcius...The design of this amplifier is very bad. It oscillates as soon you put any input or output on it. I used 2 of these amps and a 1Kw 2x65 volts psu.. I managed to get around 400watts at 4 ohm out of them after a lot of effort...I would not recomend these modules.
Every time you touch those together or you touch them with your finger you're creating a dead short! Nothing wrong with the amplifier. You're lucky you didn't get a little burn, but if you did, maybe you would have quit shorting the amp out......
Hey Suggestion !!! You have just smoked that 10 ohm SMD resistant at output, that was the part of Zobel Network of your amplifier.... You shouldn't switch on this Amplifier without speakers connected. You may change that resistance with some higher wattage value too... That was a nice video to watch
I did that! but here is the never ending question about egg and chicken..If I don't turn on , I don't blow the resistance..If I did and blow ...well..something wrong..I just quit the project, it was just for fun!

Update I already figured it out my problem on my amp like this one. It's the power supply and it's was so demanding it need 8amp 60v or 65v max. just to be safe. First i use a smps power but it's wasn't good the life of the amp just end in a minute i changed it to toroidal transformer it's doesn't smoke or anything it work good. And please don't twist the potentiometer it's was the oscillation frequency adjustment not volume. It can output only 200 watts good for 12 inch speaker. Since I changed the power supply i didn't have any problem now
Somehow, but no way with the power they advertise! There some ideas about how to make it work, read the comments.I gave up to experiment it..maybe I'll try again with another power supply, classic transformer because I got the feeling like the SMPS also are a source fro parasite oscillations and noises.Let us know your results, if any!
@@viocaia ok I will trace the problem and will let you know, SMPS should not be the problem, I think voltage is the real issue here those who are using below +/-50V they are fine.
Hey Tibi! A toroidal will be great! much better then PSU, but not more them 65V DC...maybe 70..not even think about 100! only if you want to have some fun! You know all the electronics are working with smoke! When you see the smoke out, they are dead! Joke!!!

comme je le disais modules très étranges, soyez très prudent avec le shilding, il est sujet à l'auto-conciliation, essayez de mettre environ 10n condensateurs à la fin et environ 0,33 ou plus en parallèle avec le filtre existant dans la sortie. expérimenter avec la stéréo tout simplement mono mais j’étais très déçu. De plus, c’est très possible d’avoir une sorte de boucle de masse en stéréo, certains retouches au sol par le câble.Essayez juste de simuler la terre à partir de l’ampli droit et à gauche à peine avec signal, pas de terrain attenant.

I think it was auto oscillation of some kind, bad output filter and to high voltage SMPS..but check the comments, it looks some some people have fixed...

They're not all rubbish, most if not all Chinese manufactures are trying to better other manufactures based on much the same circuitry, ergo on eBay you may see many seemingly much the same amplifiers, but if one is a keen observer there are differences, and usually the latest models are better than previous models and perhaps even better than other merchant selling other manufacturers aging amplifier kit/s that have had hardly any revisions, mind you revisions are not the only concern as some don't need any revision at all because they got it right from the get go, ergo they are the bench mark that all other manufactures strive for..

Today most home audio receivers don't have enough power to drive car subwoofers. so. I think there is a LOT to learn from you, @UC8-7UfcLnjKJEkO4Vbdvd8g@UC8-7UfcLnjKJEkO4Vbdvd8g@UC8-7UfcLnjKJEkO4Vbdvd8g and since I don't have the same electrical knowledge as you. I was wondering what do you think about using a car amp to drive car subwoofers at home? the main problem seems to be choosing the right power supply for that amp. so for example, instead of using a board which is much cheaper than a car amp. but it's much safer. and easier to setup. a car amp has a lot of power. (many times more than you need) and their intended use is exactly for either full-range audio or for powering a car subwoofer at home. I would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you
Everything depends on your demands, how much power do you need, if your loudspeakers are200W rated ..each..that doesn't mean they have a lot of volume..sound ..noise! There is a factor called SPL, that reflects how loud is that cabinet, there are a lot of tutorials about that. If you think about using a car amplifier, that should be better, them are ''factory'' design , most well done with a lot of power, filters and so on, you can't compare that little board supposed 500W with a JBL 500W amplifier..no way! ALso I'm sure you can find a good bass car amplifier second hand, even free from a scrap yard something.Also consider a dedicated power amplifier like Behringer, QSC,Peavey, dedicated for driving PA loudspeakers.You'll be suprised how loud 150W of real audio power sounds! I rather save some buck for a while and buy a good profesional amplifier that will last a lifetime..not enough, get a second one! Again , don't waist your time with that board, it's just not worth it..if you count 35+45USD for board and power supply you already have half of the money for a good class AB power amplifier..check my video about RA3001, that one I bought for 150USD..and that's a beast! 2x625W on 4 ohms, even more if you push it, that's blowing your windows if you have good cabinets..or it will burn your loudspeakers in 2 minutes! How old it is, really don't matter, the sound is the same..even better the old ones! But check the tutorials around , there are a lot of nice and documented for learning about audio.

@@viocaia Actually If your amplifier is setup properly with the right input and the right load "speakers impedance" and more importantly the right power supply, or and correct oscillator frequency or "reference wave form" 500Wrms peak is quite possible, and that's because of the Class D's efficiency to handle the volts and current limited only by the output Mosfets and the Power Supply. For your amplify to out put 500Wrms continuous it would need at least a 300VA 50-0-50 Toroidal Transformer feeding a 35 amp bridge rectifier, followed by a bank of High voltage capacitors storing enough energy so that when demand commands it, the energy is there for it, Be sure though you are using the correct Zener Diodes and resistors on your amplifier module to reign the beasts natural tendency to output more than it should, if you don't the beast just may attempt to out put way more than the out put Mosfet's can handle, and luckily a sacrificial resistor took the brunt of it, when you touched the input like you did, which BTW is proof how powerful these amps are..
I would return such rubbish back to China & tell them they have no idea what they are doing & demand your money back. What you pay for is what you get, pathetic designed electronics. I wish they would stop making rubbish. Nice tutorial Im glad you showed it.
I think small companies just grab any experimental projects from hobbies around Internet, make a PCB and saIe for a little profit.No patents, no copyrights. wasted times and money for us.
Danz Market, Virel forgot to use a pre-amp. Most high power amplifiers need one. These chinese amps can be difficult to use and configure, but to get the same power from a quality brand amp you're looking at paying 5-20 times more. I used these cheap chinese amps for years, and they are incredible value for money... if you know what you're doing. They are certanly not for people who just wanna plug them in and play music. It takes a little tehnical know how. And some luck since the components can fail because they are cheap, or not used properly.

I'll buy one my self as soon as this quarantine relax..
I have tested these units extensively and now use them in a professional sound reinforcement application. When connected and used properly they deliver truly excellent performance. Unfortunately, this UA-cam video shows very improper use. Here are some notes:
1. Choose a power supply appropriate to the speaker load. For an 8 ohm speaker, the optimum voltage is 63V. For a 4 ohm speaker use a 45V supply. The formula:
V = sqrt(500W * speaker_impedance).
2. Class D amps, such as this one, work by switching their outputs high and low at frequencies far above the audible range. What you see as "oscillation" on the output is actually the carrier frequency. Under normal conditions (connected to a speaker load) the carrier signal is about 2 Volts. Because we cannot hear above 20 kHz, and the loudspeaker cannot reproduce sound at that frequency, this carrier leakage is not a problem.
According to the manufacturer, the switching frequency should be close to 400 kHz (as it is in the modules I have purchased). The small potentiometer near the input is used to adjust that frequency. This adjustment is necessary or advisable ONLY if you have multiple modules running off of the same power supply. Improper settings greatly reduce the efficiency of the circuit and can result in overheating.
3. NEVER APPLY POWER TO THE AMP WITHOUT FIRST CONNECTING A LOAD! For testing, you can use high power resistors.
The output of the amp drives a low-pass filter. The 10 Ohm resistor is burning out because, without a proper load, the amp is delivering its high frequency carrier frequency across that filter network.
4. Toucing the input leads with your hands as you have done here, effectively couples AC line noise to the amp by using your body as an antenna. Depending on the environment, this can be several volts and can easily drive the amplifier to its full output power, potentially burning out your speaker. NEVER DO THIS! Attach the input to a proper source such as a music device or function generator.
=========
On my bench, these amps deliver their full rated power. The signal to noise ratio (SINAD) is better than 80 dB (the limit of my test equipment), meaning that they are basically noise free. Silent, really.
The frequency response is flat over the entire audio range.
Other comments:
-- The power and speaker connectors are cheap and flimsy. You can purchase quality 0.2" spacing Phoenix connectors on the web inexpensively, and replace these.
-- The Chinese amp is based on a reference design published by the manufacturer (Infineon Technologies). For some reason, the Chinese amp uses a 100 Ohm resistor for R13 (near the input connector). The recommended value is 3.1K. I have replaced mine with 3.3K devices. This replacement is a bit tough for hobbyists, as they are surface mounted resistors.
-- Even though the amp is close to 90% efficient, at full load, it must still dissipate 50W as heat. The fan and heat sink on this unit are marginal, and the output transistors are not attached properly to the heat sink. At a minimum, be sure that you have good ventilation near the power amp. A much better choice is to replace the heat sink and fan. In my case, I desolder the output MOSFETS from the board, and attach them to a proper heat sink. I then resolder the transistors to the underside of the board,. This allows me much greater flexibility in heat sink design.
-- You may find it desirable to add some filter capacitors across the power supply input lines. Several thousand microfarads will help. Be sure to use capacitors with voltage ratings at least 20% higher than the supply voltage. Place these as close as possible to the amp to reduce the resistive losses from the power supply wires.
Thank you so much! I didn't succeed and I gave up to easy, but all your comments and some others here make me rethinking the project..but I'll try another approach with a classic transformer rectifier capacitors power supply..I think that PSU I used wasn't exactly in order for this kind of amplifiers..again, thanks for advice!
Can this be used for 12 volts on an 8 ohm speaker? I'm an ME, this is a bit over my head.
@@MechInvent No, it needs a double power supply at lest 55V..
@@viocaia interesting. I appreciate the response. Never even heard of that, all I know is home audio and car audio (120ac and 12dc)
Thank you for your knowledgeable post about using these things. My intent is to use a couple in a bass guitar amplifier for outdoor concerts. Reliability at high power is essential.
I finally got that $15 500watt Chinese Amp operational last night. Dang!!! Its loud. The way I have it hooked up is 58VDC so it will prolly be just over 100Watts RMS. Mebby 113W. But the power supply runs Hot. roughly bout the same heat as 2 100 watt light bulbs so I need a fan on the power resistors. Calculated power draw from the plug is 1.17 Amps. Its a Power Amp chip made by Infinion. I think its an American company. So far I'm impressed. I can plug a guitar right into the input no preamp needed. But it needs a volume control. My ears are still ringing.
The PS is just a full wave bridge rectifier plugged into 117VAC wall plug, then DC is divided by 2 100watt 50 ohm resistors screwed down to a large heat sink, and filtered by 2 1000uf 100v caps.
100 watts is all Im after so I may add another 10 or 20 ohms to the resistor divider for less heat.
Interesting! All of this on a chip, or the same IRS2092 like in my video?
Here you have a very nice forensic electronic work I may say from Engineering Essentials '' R13 modification (10 ohm to 3k) that was successful, capacitor blown up due to sustained oscillation at output. Changed capacitor. I probed every pin and point of the board. The board is very small for the purpose and the resistors are of less wattage than recommended. But it works after R13 modification, 2Hr played with high volume no problem so far. That 10Ohm resistance is just warm but the big toroid filter is getting hot during operation, even switches are very cool. Do the modification it is worth the money.'' Thanks for sharing !!

Hello, the board is only 250W @ 4 ohms maximum. Chinese manufacturers have difficulty understanding that two 250W channels operating in bridge are needed to provide 500W of power. This board is based on the electronic schematic of IRAUDAMP7S, but resistors R13 (100R) and R15 (130k) appear in the diagram with different values, R7 (3.01k) and R8 (120k).
(For IRAUDAMP7S) NOTE:
Potentiometer P1A and P1B have been set to zero ohms. This is configured as a 2 terminal variable resistor. This should be set to 200 ohms. This will give a nominal operational frequency of 400kHz for the amplifier module.
Check the tightness of the devices on the heatsink. (Source: larrynz911)
I gave up with this..they sound bad and lots of problem..classic AB it's for me the best! Much more expensive of course but totally different sound quality.

That adjustment is to match two or more modules to the same operating frequency, also note with Class D Amp it's a good idea to run one amplifier with an inverted signal to cancel out Power supply bumping and, and I stress it also helps to cancel out distortion, one more thing if one channel is fed with an inverted signal that modules speaker needs to be reverse polarity.

Hi Viorel, thanks for the video. Not cientific, but nice as an information. Class D amps require special care ;-) and all of these gadgets are minimalist!

If you hook yourself up to the input of an oscilloscope, you should discover not only that mains hum but some other electronic noise, and class D amplifiers being Class D amplifiers they can amplify those signals that you can't normally hear "Frequencies Beyond our ears abilities", So long story short when you touch the inputs without any attenuation "Volume control or preamplifier connected properly via shielded audio lead your amplifier may be driven beyond its designed output with signals that you cant hear, thus frying the sacrificial resistor..

What power supply do you recommend for 100watts RMS? And, whats it sound like? Some of these "D:" class amps have all the high fidelity of an Ice Machine at a Motel 6.
I believe +-50V will be ok for 100W. The sound it's typical class D, kind of ''trumpet'' but pretty ok for a subwoofer. There are some mods you can do for better behave. Check the comments, plenty of good advices.
With Class D Amplifiers you should never EVER touch the inputs, and that's because class D amplifiers amplify way past the audio range both below and above it, ergo when you touch the input you are feeding it extremely high voltages that you body naturally has, and these voltages drive the amp beyond what it can handle.
Class D Amplifiers are switching at a extremely high frequency "beyond our hearing range" this high frequency is used to switch the output mosfets off and on at around 300Khz~600Khz, This key frequency is a square wave and to simplify this wave is a reference to switch the Output Mosfets off and on alternately, anyway long story short, that adjusting resistor sets your wave form so that the Mosfet's are switched with some dead time in between, as one works one way whilst the other after some dead time works the other way, now that oscilloscope you are using needs to measure up to at least a 1 to 2 Mhz at the very least, because you will need to adjust that resistor to the optimum frequency "usually factory set" if the module is prebuilt, change it at your own risk, if you built the amp from scratch only then will you have to adjust it for the right frequency ergo the right amount of dead time "dead time is critical if you don't want your components to blow up", also if you are setting up a stereo configuration you need to set both amplifier modules to the same optimum frequency, Check both and see which one is working at it's most optimum and then adjust the other to match it precisely, so that most if not all distortion is cancelled out especially if you invert one of the channels, once setup, they/it will drive your amplifier to it full potential, in your case a fair dinkum 500 Watts, don't forget to keep track of the phase of your signals if-n you have a stereo setup and have one with an inverted signal, also remember for that module it's speaker output is reverse phased, ergo put back into phase by treating the negative as positive and the positive as negative, if your amplifiers are not set up right you wont get the clean and powerful out put that these amplifiers are blessed with. Good Luck..

You should not power on the circuit without connecting the load (woofer), resistance blew off because of this. And the board did not perform well because it needs at least 1.5 watt rms from audio source so you first need to either amplify the source or use a mixer in the source.
Thanks nice to know!

Hey! Just give me a hand and subscribe ! Thanks!
Every time you touch those together or you touch them with your finger you're creating a dead short!
Nothing wrong with the amplifier.
You're lucky you didn't get a little burn, but if you did, maybe you would have quit shorting the amp out......

Hi
Is the amp using AC or DC? An could u maby link the power supply
2xDC..differential 63V ...I can't find the link for SMSP anymore..sorry!
Hey Suggestion !!!
You have just smoked that 10 ohm SMD resistant at output, that was the part of Zobel Network of your amplifier.... You shouldn't switch on this Amplifier without speakers connected.
You may change that resistance with some higher wattage value too...
That was a nice video to watch
I did that! but here is the never ending question about egg and chicken..If I don't turn on , I don't blow the resistance..If I did and blow ...well..something wrong..I just quit the project, it was just for fun!

Update I already figured it out my problem on my amp like this one. It's the power supply and it's was so demanding it need 8amp 60v or 65v max. just to be safe. First i use a smps power but it's wasn't good the life of the amp just end in a minute i changed it to toroidal transformer it's doesn't smoke or anything it work good. And please don't twist the potentiometer it's was the oscillation frequency adjustment not volume. It can output only 200 watts good for 12 inch speaker. Since I changed the power supply i didn't have any problem now

Bonjour, j'ai deux board IRS2092 comme la vôtre avec une alimentation +-65V pour les deux boards, tout est branché correctement mais dés que je branche mon PC,téléphone etc... a l'ampli (avec un câble jack/RCA) un bruit trés fort sort de mes enceintes,"BUZZZ, souffle et même le bruit des ventilateurs qu'il y'a sur les boards !!!" mais il suffit que je débranche l'entrée droit ou gauche de l'ampli et tout reviens dans l'ordre mais je ne peux pas utiliser la deuxième board ,"seulement en mono quoi"
avez vous une solutions je suis perdu dans tout ça, je me monte souvent des ampli avec les modules que l'on trouve sur internet mais cela ne m'étais jamais arrivé
Cordialement
comme je le disais modules très étranges, soyez très prudent avec le shilding, il est sujet à l'auto-conciliation, essayez de mettre environ 10n condensateurs à la fin et environ 0,33 ou plus en parallèle avec le filtre existant dans la sortie. expérimenter avec la stéréo tout simplement mono mais j’étais très déçu. De plus, c’est très possible d’avoir une sorte de boucle de masse en stéréo, certains retouches au sol par le câble.Essayez juste de simuler la terre à partir de l’ampli droit et à gauche à peine avec signal, pas de terrain attenant.
@@viocaia merci pour vôtre réponse, comme je ne comprend pas l'anglais je n'ai pas su décrypter la vidéo, c'est vrai que je n'ai pas encore essayer de faire fonctionner les deux modules en mono, juste 1 pour l'instant , je vais éssayer ça en premier car je ne connais pas énormément quand il faut faire de lélectronique pure en plus la stéréo n'est pas indispensable pour ce que je fait avec, sinon j'ai acheter celle ci aussi www.badals.com/en/amplifiers-preamps/556312-556312.html je n'ai eu aucun problème avec et le branchement était pareil, "une alimentation pour deux carte"

bro, how you control the vol? you use your pc ou smartphone?
Yep, by the output volume from laptop or any other audio source.Also there is a gain control by switching different contacts at audio in of the kit.
@@viocaia are you refering to the small trimpot near the input connector?
@@leandrovinteres7851 P1 trimmer is for self oscillating adjustment, got nothing to do with input sensibility, which BTW is very low 1.5v, so if you can't match from a mixer or any other audio capable of 1.5v you need a preamp.Also you may need an osciloscope for adjusting the self oscillating freq to 400KHz.I didn't know that when I tested, so it's very possible this amplifier didn't perform because a bad oscillating frequnecy..I don't have'em anymore so I can't check if is treu, but you may try and let us know.
I had another kit , smaller with a kind of switch for sensibility and gain, I made a confusion with this one...IRS2092 500W doesn't have any volume or gain control.

Im glad you show the chinese 500watt class D amplifier is typically rubbish if Resistors burn up. Very poor design
They're not all rubbish, most if not all Chinese manufactures are trying to better other manufactures based on much the same circuitry, ergo on eBay you may see many seemingly much the same amplifiers, but if one is a keen observer there are differences, and usually the latest models are better than previous models and perhaps even better than other merchant selling other manufacturers aging amplifier kit/s that have had hardly any revisions, mind you revisions are not the only concern as some don't need any revision at all because they got it right from the get go, ergo they are the bench mark that all other manufactures strive for..

Today most home audio receivers don't have enough power to drive car subwoofers.
so. I think there is a LOT to learn from you, @UC8-7UfcLnjKJEkO4Vbdvd8g@UC8-7UfcLnjKJEkO4Vbdvd8g@UC8-7UfcLnjKJEkO4Vbdvd8g
and since I don't have the same electrical knowledge as you. I was wondering what do you think about using a car amp to drive car subwoofers at home?
the main problem seems to be choosing the right power supply for that amp.
so for example, instead of using a board which is much cheaper than a car amp. but it's much safer. and easier to setup.
a car amp has a lot of power. (many times more than you need) and their intended use is exactly for either full-range audio or for powering a car subwoofer at home.
I would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you
Everything depends on your demands, how much power do you need, if your loudspeakers are200W rated ..each..that doesn't mean they have a lot of volume..sound ..noise! There is a factor called SPL, that reflects how loud is that cabinet, there are a lot of tutorials about that.
If you think about using a car amplifier, that should be better, them are ''factory'' design , most well done with a lot of power, filters and so on, you can't compare that little board supposed 500W with a JBL 500W amplifier..no way! ALso I'm sure you can find a good bass car amplifier second hand, even free from a scrap yard something.Also consider a dedicated power amplifier like Behringer, QSC,Peavey, dedicated for driving PA loudspeakers.You'll be suprised how loud 150W of real audio power sounds! I rather save some buck for a while and buy a good profesional amplifier that will last a lifetime..not enough, get a second one! Again , don't waist your time with that board, it's just not worth it..if you count 35+45USD for board and power supply you already have half of the money for a good class AB power amplifier..check my video about RA3001, that one I bought for 150USD..and that's a beast! 2x625W on 4 ohms, even more if you push it, that's blowing your windows if you have good cabinets..or it will burn your loudspeakers in 2 minutes! How old it is, really don't matter, the sound is the same..even better the old ones! But check the tutorials around , there are a lot of nice and documented for learning about audio.

@@JadeB628 yes ..it's ok, but you need an
external power supply at least the same power like the amp..like 350W at 35V! That will cost more than the amp! keep looking...
It's not a good practice to tap any amplifier inputs without any controller or a potentiometer. It's a big NO.
Right! But this specific one have 1.5v in so you need a lot of signal to make it run!Also there is 10K resistor parallel with the ground, just in case..

No way!
500w 😂 what is the RMS output power?
I think it means musical power...or peaks, no way of 500RMS!
@@viocaia Exactly!
I think it can when using 4ohm load it can produce 500w rms.
It's 500W RMS, it is produced only if you use 65v dual power supply and 4 ohm load woofer, its a mono channel board, for stereo, you would need 2 boards and can sync the frequencies using the presets available on board.
@@viocaia Actually If your amplifier is setup properly with the right input and the right load "speakers impedance" and more importantly the right power supply, or and correct oscillator frequency or "reference wave form" 500Wrms peak is quite possible, and that's because of the Class D's efficiency to handle the volts and current limited only by the output Mosfets and the Power Supply.
For your amplify to out put 500Wrms continuous it would need at least a 300VA 50-0-50 Toroidal Transformer feeding a 35 amp bridge rectifier, followed by a bank of High voltage capacitors storing enough energy so that when demand commands it, the energy is there for it, Be sure though you are using the correct Zener Diodes and resistors on your amplifier module to reign the beasts natural tendency to output more than it should, if you don't the beast just may attempt to out put way more than the out put Mosfet's can handle, and luckily a sacrificial resistor took the brunt of it, when you touched the input like you did, which BTW is proof how powerful these amps are..

I think small companies just grab any experimental projects from hobbies around Internet, make a PCB and saIe for a little profit.No patents, no copyrights. wasted times and money for us.
Danz Market, Virel forgot to use a pre-amp. Most high power amplifiers need one.
These chinese amps can be difficult to use and configure, but to get the same power from a quality brand amp you're looking at paying 5-20 times more.
I used these cheap chinese amps for years, and they are incredible value for money... if you know what you're doing. They are certanly not for people who just wanna plug them in and play music. It takes a little tehnical know how. And some luck since the components can fail because they are cheap, or not used properly.
