Schematic & Wiring Diagram

This is a 100 watt audio power amplifier circuit for your guitar. Of course a high quality pre-amp is needed to produce high quality audio output.

You need this schematics..? Go to THIS page and you will find a good pre-amp and power amplifier for your guitar include the complete explanation of its works, and how to build the box.

This circuit can be used where a high current is required with a low-ripple voltage (such as in a high-powered class AB amplifier when high-quality reproduction is necessary). Q1, Q1 and R2 can be regarded as a power Darlington transistor. ZD1 and R1 provide a reference voltage at the base of Q1. ZD1 should be chosen thus: ZD1=Vout-1.2 . C2 can be chosen for the degree of smoothness as its value is effectively multiplied by the combined gains of Q1/Q2, if 100uF is chosen for C2, assuming minimum hfe for Q1 and Q2, C=100x15(Q1)x25(Q2)=37,000uF.

This circuit will convert DC volt input +9 to +16 DC Volt.
Output will be:
+28V DC
+15V DC
-5V DC
-12V DC

With touch switch, you can turn on and turn on a electronic device. Touch switch don't need mechanical part, so they will not worn out due to mechanical contact. Touch switches can be used in places where regular switches would not last, such as wet or very dusty areas.

Here the schematic diagram:


Component part list:

Part      Total Qty.    Description

C1         1          10uF 16V     Electrolytic Capacitor
R1, R2     2          100K 1/4 Watt Resistor
R3         1          10 Meg 1/4 Watt Resistor
U1         1          4011 CMOS NAND Gate IC
MISC       1          Board, Wire, Socket For U1

Notes:

1. The contacts an be made with just two loops of wire close together, or two squares etched close together on a PC board.

2. When activated, the output of the circuit goes high for about one second. This pulse can be used to drive a relay, transistor, other logic, etc.

3. You can vary the length of the output pulse by using a smaller or larger capacitor for C1.
