Design of nf electron-valve stereo amplifier
Dofek, Přemysl ; Rampl, Ivan (referee) ; Káňa, Ladislav (advisor)
This master’s thesis is dealing with low frequency all valve stereo amplifier unit conception for an electric guitar. The amplifier contains two independent output stages with two power tubes EL34, working in AB class, with 40Watts of power. The apparatus is equipped with two channels, EQ correctors, parallel effects loop, output selection with lowered anode power supply, selection between silicon or tube rectifier. The preamplifier works in mono mode and the stereophony is reached by dividing the signal in an added effects system. This unusual solution differs from both monaural conceptions and binaural power amplifiers which contains no preamp. It offers the possibility of stereophony without the necessity of dividing the guitar signal before the amplifier’s input. The sound that comes from the speaker on one side is effected and on the other side is dry by using monaural effects apparatus. The sound from both speakers is effected by using binaural effect apparatus. The amplifier can be used as power amplifier stage only when the return of the effect loop is used as the amplifier input. Every available possible solution is discussed in case of each block and then the most suitable is chosen. The biggest attention is paid to a proposal and calculation of both power and output transformer, ergonomical lay-out of the stages in need of the best S/N separation. The stages were simulated in Micro-Cap 9.0 and Tonestack 1.3 computer programmes. The construction was carried out with the emphasis on proper shielding and grounding. The overall stability tests were performed after building the amplifier as well as frequency characteristics with the scope and distortion with the distortion meter.

Audio amplifier with PWM for laboratory measurements
Lelek, Martin ; Dřínovský, Jiří (referee) ; Kratochvíl, Tomáš (advisor)
This paper describes about theoretical design of class D power amplifier. Amplifier is primarily intended for laboratory measurements, i.e. measuring of major parameters of amplifier operates in this class (frequency response, slew rate, aliasing etc.). Amplifier (oncoming laboratory module) uses PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) and is constructed from separate blocks for possibility of measuring key signals trough all the structure (triangle comparation wave, analog input signal, feedback signal, PWM signal from modulator, drivers and power transistors, output signal after recontruction filters). Laboratory module is determined for laboratory power supply of safe voltage and should be produce power of several tens of watts into usual load impedance.

Design of class AB stereo audio power amplifier
Zatloukal, Tomáš ; Polák, Ladislav (referee) ; Brančík, Lubomír (advisor)
The following work deals with design of class AB low-frequency amplifier, which is appropriately supplemented by correction Pre-amplifier and inrush protection circuit. The original schematic from prof. Leach was edited to fulfill task and to be easily completed from discrete components. The result of this work is the final design of power amplifier and correction pre-amplifier, protection circuit for speakers and power supply. As a next part, the design of printed circuit boards will be described together with assembling and mounting of boards in a construction box. Power amplifier will be verified by simulation and hardware measurements.
