40 Watt LJ504 Amplifier Circuit and PCB Layout

Build a super easy amplifier circuit using LJ504 amplifier circuit. This circuit is designed by Liadel joshi so it is known as “LJ504”. This article i m sharing the circuit diagram and its PCB layout developed by Bijoyts electro. You can get a downloadable file at the bottom of the article to do yourself.

40 Watts Amplifier Circuit

40 watt amplifier circuit

This amplifier is a Darlington pair transistor amplifier, so if you are replace it with normal power transistor wont work. TIP142 and TIP147 is the popular Darlington pair of transistors. some time this transistor availability is difficult. Credits: Bijoyts electro youtube channel
