Full temperature protection directly senses the device die temperatures and shuts down the output if the amplifier overheats due to obstructed ventilation or any other cause.

DC offset protection immediately isolates the amplifier from the loudspeakers, by positively opening an output relay in the unlikely event of an amplifier error.

Voltage clamping is built into the power amplifier output stages to safely handle flyback transients from highly reactive loads.

A sophisticated microcontroller system handles the basic operation of the amplifier, such as muting at switch-on and switch-off, protection and so on.

Now we invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy!
