400 Watt 70 Volt Amplifier Schematic & PCB Layout Design

This is the schematic design of 400 Watt 70 Volt amplifier capable to deliver about 400W RMS power output in single channel. The component part list, PCB layout design and component placement layout is provided in this post. The power supply module already included ini the PCB design. The components are easily found in market. This circuit is using 8 transistors of 2SC5200 mounted in PCB, the heatsink is required and should be mounted in the power transistors to prevent overheat and maintain the amplifier’s good performance.

Good day..do you have a preamp for the 400watts 70 volts amplifier..thank in advance

This circuit is working?

Hello sir, I need PCB layouts

Hi, can you send me the pcb in format .pdf on email royalpcb@yahoo.com
Thanks

minimal use transformer how Amper

I buy in PCB

Besides, in laying out PCB components of LED switching power supply, it is suggested that engineers should arrange the position of every functional circuit based on the procedure of the circuits. This kind of layout will will the signal flow more effectively and rapidly and make the signals maintain the same direction. In laying out PCB board, the first principle is to ensure routing rate; connection between the flying lines should also be paid special attention; components connected with wires should be put together. The size of loop should be reduced to the minimum extend to stop radiated disturbance of the switching power.
