An audio amp in a 14-pin DIL package that requires very few external components to make a complete 2.5W power amplifier. In most cases however it is advisable to add a Min Res 2.7 Omega & Polyester 0.1micro F in series from pin 8 to ground & an Axial 4.7micro F from pin 1 to ground. High-Output-Crystal-Cartridge Power Amp A 2.5W rms power amp the 380 is shown in the circuit driven by a high output crystal pickup. The IC requires only 4 other components without tone control only two other components simply omit C1 & RV1.
