20 W stereo power amplifier with volume control
[1] The noise output voltage is measured at the output in a frequency range from 20 Hz to 22 kHz
(unweighted), with a source impedance ZS=0Ω at the input.
[2] Supply voltage ripple rejection is measured at the output, with a source impedance ZS=0Ω at the input
and with a frequency range from 20 Hz to 22 kHz (unweighted). The ripple voltage is a sine wave with a
frequency fripple and an amplitude of 300 mV (RMS), which is applied to the positive supply rail.
[3] Output voltage in Mute mode (VI(VC) = 1.35 V) and an input voltage of 1 V (RMS) in a bandwidth from 20 Hz
to 22 kHz, including noise.
