Exploring RL=32kΩ misprint and power calculation
The text indeed says RL = 32kΩ, but this doesn’t align with typical LM386 use, which works with 8-32Ω loads. Maybe it’s a misprint or simplified for small power output, but 32kΩ doesn’t work well. Still, I'll follow the question and compute the maximum output power based on this setup.
Determining maximum output power with load connection
If the load is connected directly to the output pin (assuming a coupling capacitor isn't specified), the load would receive both DC and AC. However, as the question mentions "maximum output power" (likely referring to AC power), I'll calculate using the typical formula for AC power with a coupling capacitor, ignoring DC.
Interpreting load connection and type classification
The phrase "若 V_O 处接负载电阻 RL 后接地" seems to imply a direct load connection at Vo and then to ground, which is typical for LM386 with a coupling capacitor. Although the question doesn't explicitly mention the capacitor, it likely refers to an OTL configuration, as this type requires an external coupling capacitor. So, the answer appears to be OTL.
Calculating max output power for OTL configuration
For OTL with a capacitor-coupled RL, the maximum output power depends on the maximum VRMS value, which is calculated as (Vcc/2)/√2. When RL is 32kΩ, I get 0.5625mW of power. If RL is 32Ω instead, this would be 0.5625W. Accounting for DC vs AC components, total power includes both DC and AC contributions.
Clarifying power amplifier type and output power calculations
For "最大输出功率", this usually refers to AC output power, like when using a coupling capacitor — so I'd expect 0.5625mW for the AC power. The amplifier type, based on the question setup, hints at OTL, assuming an external coupling capacitor. In part 3, the calculation for maximum output power would be 0.5625mW for 32k.
Describing voltage-series negative feedback
The feedback sample is taken from the output (shunt), and it's mixed in series with the signal at the inverting input (v-). This creates a voltage-series feedback configuration. Assuming v+ increases and v- is grounded, this feedback opposes the change. The system uses a series mixing configuration, reflected as "电压串联负反馈".
Understanding feedback configuration in LM386
The inverting input (v-) is connected to the base of T1, with R1 to ground (50k). The feedback likely goes to the base of T4, but the output is actually through R6, feeding into the emitter of T4. In the LM386, the feedback configuration is a voltage shunt, with a feedback resistor network forming a voltage divider. This configuration allows for gain adjustment.
Analyzing LM386 feedback classification
It looks like the feedback configuration in the LM386 involves the output being fed back to the input stage, possibly in series or shunt. The feedback path consists of resistors like R6, R5, and R4. The gain is influenced by the resistor between pins 1 and 8, with capacitors bypassing it for higher gain. The network at pin1 seems to connect to T4’s base and emitter.
Feedback path and output power calculation
The feedback path via R6 creates a voltage-series feedback system, affecting the emitter voltage and causing series mixing. At the differential input, feedback influences the v- input through emitter referencing—confirming a voltage-series configuration.
For output power calculation with Vcc = 12V, the peak voltage across the load (RL) results in 0.5625 mW, and if the DC component is considered, 1.6875 mW. I'll keep this calculation clear and concise.
