1 Watt Audio Amplifier Circuit using 7905 IC

1 Watt Audio Amplifier Circuit using 7905 IC

A simple stereo 1 Watt Audio Amplifier Circuit using 7905 IC is built around two 7905 negative-voltage regulators (IC1 and IC2) and a few discrete components. The 1 Watt Audio Amplifier Circuit will also work with other 79XX regulators if the appropriate power supply is used. Regulator IC 7905 works as an amplifier for the voltages applied to common pin2 (Ground or GND). Also check the LM317 audio amplifier, another interesting circuit.
