In comparison to the Class D amplifier, ClassHD® is a switching amplifier and power supply technology which uses tracking to achieve the benefits of improved SNR, lower distortion, reduced EMI, reduced idle power consumption and higher efficiency. Unlike a regular Class D amplifier, the ClassHD® amplifier’s supply rails are maintained at a level just high enough to produce the voltage swing needed by the music at any point in time.
ClassHD® is best suited for applications which have:
ClassHD® is best suited for applications which have:
- Stringent space constraints for amplifier electronics
- Concern with total heat dissipation
- Concern with electromagnetic interference
- Total system power above 300W
- Superb SNR and THD+N performance
- High power efficiency requirements
- Impedance headroom
- 0.5 Watt standby requirement
Available ASIMs:
HD250-2.2.1
The HD250 2.2.1 amplifier system consists of Audera patented ClassHD® switching 4 x 30W + 1 x120W amplifier with tracking switch–mode power supply. This is a great fit for the high quality home theatre systems or computer multimedia systems. It has high system efficiency at light or heavy loads, resulting in smaller overall system size as compared to Class D. It can deliver total 240W RMS output power. With standby power of less than 0.5W it meets Energy Star and EU requirements. Has onboard auxiliary power supply for powering DSP, op-amps, etc. of the external feature board.
