  1. Sublimity AudioStereo Class-D Audio Amplifier Authors Joe Baird Luke Raynor Aaron Taylor • Advisor • Dr. Osterberg • Industry Representative • Mr Mike Desmith • Intel University of Portland School of Engineering

  2. Introduction • Why Class-D? • Higher Efficiency amplifier • Important to mobile electronics • Efficiency  less heat  smaller size University of Portland School of Engineering

  3. Important Things to Note • Reasons Class-D is so efficient • Basic idea behind the amplifier • Importance of proper layout University of Portland School of Engineering

  4. Simple Class AB Amp University of Portland School of Engineering

  5. Simple Class-D Amp University of Portland School of Engineering

  6. Pulse Width Modulation University of Portland School of Engineering

  7. Commercial Class-D Amp Specifications VS Sublimity Audio Class-D Amp University of Portland School of Engineering

  8. Getting Started • Researched amp design • Broke the project down into individual groups • Each member focused on specific part University of Portland School of Engineering

  9. Building and Testing • Built each unit independently • Each unit was tested/debugged until successful • Individual units were integrated together to build full amp design University of Portland School of Engineering
