IC LM380N Mono Audio Power Amplifier DIP14 LM380

The LM 380 is a power audio amplifier for consumer applications. The internal gain is fixed at 34dB. The output automatically self-centers to one-half the supply voltage. The output is short-circuit proof with internal thermal limiting. The package outline is standard dual-in-line. The LM380N uses the center three pins on either side to act as a heatsink. This means the copper on the PC board must be large enough to dissipate the heat.
