Speaker Amplifiers

Speaker Amplifiers
Maxim's speaker amplifier ICs combine superior sonic quality with technological breakthroughs that simplify the design process, save space, extend battery life, and reduce system cost. Our speaker amp ICs offer output power levels from less than 1W up to 50W. Maxim's innovative packaging technology provides the smallest Class AB and Class D amplifiers available. Our IV sense boosted Class D speaker amplifiers employ our patented Dynamic Speaker Management (DSM) technology, providing up to two times loudness improvement over standard Class D amps.
