Power Amplifier

Product information "Power Amplifier"

Use the Power Amplifier as a power supply for DC and AC circuit investigations or to drive devices such as speakers, lamps, and small DC motors.

Specifications

  • Technical Details of Power Amplifier Operation
  • Input connection: 3.5 mm audio cable (from LabQuest or computer) or BTA cable (from LabPro CH4)
  • Input Frequency range: DC to 15 kHz.
  • Overall gain: 10X (LabQuest/computer), 2X (LabPro)
  • Input impedance: 10 kΩ. (LabQuest/computer), 50 kΩ (LabPro)
  • Maximum input ±12 V without damage.
  • Pulse Width Modulation input used for producing DC offset or pure DC output
  • Current Sensor
  • Connect to Vernier interface to monitor load current
  • There is a 0.1 Ω resistor between the black terminal and ground. Current measurements are based on the voltage drop across this resistor.
  • Important Note: The Power Amplifier creates no signal on its own. It depends on a signal source, such as the LabQuest 2 or original LabQuest’s Power Amplifier App, our free Power Amplifier Frequency Generator software for PC/Mac, or Logger Pro 3.8 or newer (LabPro only)
  • A LabQuest Mini or LabQuest Stream does not provide a signal source. Use the Power Amplifier Function Generator software as the signal source.

What's included

  • Vernier Power Amplifier
  • (1) Power supply
  • (1) 3.5 mm audio cable for LabQuest control
  • (1) BTA cable for LabPro input and current sensing
