The LM1876 is a stereo audio amplifier capable of delivering

typically 20W per channel of conTInuous average output

power into a 4Ω or 8Ω load with less than 0.1% THD+N.

Each amplifier has an independent smooth transiTIon fadein/

out mute and a power conserving standby mode which

can be controlled by external logic.

The performance of the LM1876, uTIlizing its Self Peak Instantaneous

Temperature (°Ke) (SPiKe™) protecTIon circuitry,

places it in a class above discrete and hybrid amplifiers

by providing an inherently, dynamically protected Safe

Operating Area (SOA). SPiKe protection means that these

parts are safeguarded at the output against overvoltage,

undervoltage, overloads, including thermal runaway and instantaneous

temperature peaks.
