Abstract: An audio power amplifier is an electronic device used to amplify a small signal source power at the input into a large signal power at the output that is speaker. In general, audio power amplifiers use class-AB amplifiers. In the process of amplifying the signal power, there will be power losses in the amplifiers which results in relatively lower amplifier power efficiency because there is a difference between the supply and output voltage levels. In this paper a class-G series audio power amplifier for subwoofers is designed to minimize these power losses and increase the power efficiency of the amplifier. The designed amplifier voltage supply is 40 V with a maximum output power of 80 W at an 8 Ω load. The amplifier has frequency response from 20–200 Hz and gain twice. Realization of the power amplifier and measurements were carried out using the circuit maker simulator, and the measurement results of the class-G power amplifier were compared with the class-AB power amplifier. The measurement results show that both power amplifiers meet the design specifications. The proposed class-G amplifier has 0.14% larger total harmonic distortion (THD) but has 10.4% greater power efficiency advantages over the class-AB amplifier. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
