2.1 Amplifier with TDA7265: Power and Versatility for Audio Projects. The 2.1 amplifier circuit based on the TDA7265 IC is an efficient and practical solution for those looking to build a sound system with three audio outputs: two stereo channels (left and right) and a dedicated subwoofer channel. This project is ideal for home audio applications, such as multimedia speaker systems or home theater setups.
Key Features
- No Built-in Low-Pass Filter for Subwoofer: A preamplifier with this function must be used, or the SW output can be configured on a computer.
- Adjustable Subwoofer Preamp: Includes a bass filter circuit adjustable between 30Hz and 230Hz.
- Stereo Tone Control + Subwoofer Preamp: Allows fine-tuning of audio output.
TDA7265 Specifications
- The TDA7265 is a Class AB power amplifier with the following main specifications:
- Output Power: 25W per channel (in stereo configuration, with an 8Ω load and ±20V symmetrical power supply).
- Power Supply: Operates with symmetrical voltages from ±5V to ±25V.
- Integrated Protections: Includes short-circuit and overheating protection.
- Additional Functions: Features mute and standby controls.
Circuit Design
- The presented circuit uses two TDA7265 ICs:
- Subwoofer Channel: One IC operates in mono mode, using both internal channels in a bridge configuration to double the available power for the subwoofer.
- Stereo Channels: The second IC is configured in stereo mode, providing audio for the left and right channels.

Main Components
- Power Supply:
- Rectifier bridge (B1) and electrolytic capacitors (C1, C2) stabilize the voltage.
- Symmetrical power supply (± V) is required, using a dual transformer.
Amplifier Functionality
- Signal Distribution:
- Independent subwoofer channel.
- Stereo input
- Amplification:
- Each IC amplifies signals according to its configuration (stereo or bridge).
- Outputs:
- Independent outputs for left, right, and subwoofer channels.
Assembly Tips
- Proper Power Supply:
- Use a symmetrical power source suitable for the load (a transformer of 9+9V to 15+15V is recommended).
- Thermal Dissipation:
- Install heat sinks on the ICs to prevent overheating.
- Noise Reduction:
- Use short, shielded connections to minimize audio interference.
Applications
- Home sound systems
- Multimedia speaker systems
- DIY projects for electronics enthusiasts
