Designing Audio Power Amplifiers, 2nd Edition
Routledge • ISBN 1138555444
The second edition of Designing Audio Power Amplifiers, is now available for pre-order at Amazon. It will be published by
Focal/Routledge in May. The 776-page second edition includes 5 new chapters. Many of the chapters of the first edition have been
substantially updated and expanded. The art and science of audio power amplifier design is covered in a way that is intended to
be readable and valuable to professionals, enthusiasts and educators alike. In order to cover audio power amplifier design with
depth and breadth, many foundational electrical engineering subjects are covered as well. These include circuit design,
semiconductors, low-noise design, feedback compensation, SPICE simulation, switch-mode power supplies and others. Coverage of
these subjects makes the book a valuable resource for electrical engineering that goes well beyond the subject of audio power
amplifiers.
I have tried to make the book both broad and deep, with 36 chapters covering both foundational and advanced aspects of
amplifier design. Two chapters are dedicated to SPICE simulation and modeling, and four chapters are dedicated to class D
amplifiers. Three of the new chapters cover low-noise design, professional power amplifiers and switch-mode power supplies
(SMPS), all in some depth. Take a quick tour of the book by clicking below to see the Preface, Chapter Listing, and Table of
Contents. Whether you are new to amplifier design or a seasoned professional with years of experience, I think you’ll enjoy
the read.
