Amplifier IC

The LM3886 is a high-performance audio power amplifier capable of delivering 68W of continuous average power to a 4 Ohms load and 38W into 8 Ohms with 0.1% THD+N from 20Hz -20kHz.
The performance of the LM3886, utilizing its Self Peak Instantaneous Temperature ( Degree Ke) (SPiKe) protection circuitry, puts it in a class above discrete and hybrid amplifiers by providing an inherently, dynamically protected Safe Operating Area (SOA). SPiKe protection means that these parts are completely safeguarded at the output against overvoltage, undervoltage, overloads, including shorts to the supplies, thermal runaway, and instantaneous temperature peaks.
