NTE1288
Integrated Circuit
Audio Power Amplifier, 10W
for Car Radio
Description:
The NTE1288 has improved performance with the same pin configuration as the NTE1232. The addi-
tional features of the NTE1232; very low number of external components, ease of assembly, space
and cost saving, are maintained. The device provides a high output current capability (up to 3.5A),
very low harmonic and cross distortion.
Complete safe operation is guaranteed due to protection against DC and AC short−circuit between
all pins and GND, thermal over−range, load dump voltage surge up to 40V, polarity inversion and for-
tuitous open ground.
