SLS

Low Voltage Audio Power AMP

The SL386 is a power amplifier designed for use in low voltage

consumer applications. The gain is internally set to 20 to keep external

part count low, but the addition of an external resistor and capacitor

between pins 1 and 8 will increase the gain to any value up to 200.

The inputs are ground referenced while the output is automatically

biased to one half the supply voltage. The quiescent powe r drain is

only 24 milliwatts when operating from a 6volt supply, making the

SL386 ideal for battery operation.
