6V / 330mW single-channel power
amplifier
BA546
The BA546 is a monolithic power amplifier designed for use in portable radios, tape recorders and interphones. With
a 6V power supply voltage, it has a rated output of 330mW into an 8Ω load (THD = 10%), and a maximum output of
550mW. It comes in a compact 9-pin SIP package with no heatsink fins.
FApplications
Portable radios, cassette recorders, and interphones.
FFeatures
1) High output. POUT = 330mW (VCC = 6V and an 8Ω
load (THD = 10%)). See Fig. 2.
2) Good low voltage characteristics. Begins operating
at less than 2V (see Fig. 1).
3) 9-pin SIP package; around the same size as a pre-
amplifier.
4) Pin compatible with the Rohm BA526 and BA527
power ICs. Choose to suit your application.
5) Low current dissipation (4.8mA Typ.).
