Working of IC LM386 Audio Amplifier

 

Working of IC LM386 Audio Amplifier
  • This audio amplifier can construct with LM386 IC, capacitors, resistor, power supply, and speaker.
  • The above circuit diagram shows that pin1 and pin8 are used to set the gain of the amplifier.
  • In this diagram, there are three functional blocks such as power or output, bypass, and gain control.
  • Here we connect the two power supply pins namely pin4 & pin6 to GND as well as voltage correspondingly.
  • The input level in this circuit can be controlled by connecting a potentiometer to the input.
  • The bypass capacitor is used in pin7 it is an option.
  • The amplified audio signal can be obtained from pin 5 which is connected to an 8-ohm speaker through a filtering capacitor.

Pin Configuration

IC LM386 Audio Amplifier
Pins Description
Pin1, Pin8 GAIN:-It is used to set the gain of the IC by connecting to a Capacitor
Pin2 Inverting Input (IN-):- The Inverting Pin of the amplifier is normally grounded
Pin3 Non-Inverting Input (IN+):- The Non-Inverting pin is provided with the audio signal
Pin4 The ground:-The ground pin is connected to the ground of the system
Pin5 Vout:-Provides amplified audio output, connected to the speaker
Pin6 Vss / Vcc:- Connected to power
Pin7 Bypass pin:- It is used for connecting a decoupling capacitor

Applications of IC LM386 Audio Amplifier

  • It is used in AM and FM Radio amplifiers, Portable music players, Low Power Audio amplifiers, Wien bridge oscillators, Power Amplifiers, and Audio boosters.
