T K2019 Amp lifier Gain
The gain of the TK2019 is the product of the input stage gain and the modulator gain. Please refer to
the sections, Input Stage Design, and Modulator Feedback Design, for a complete explanation of how
to determine the external component values.

Please note that Output 1 and Output 2, as shown in the Application/Test Diagram, are out of phase
with respect to the input signal. This phase reversal can be eliminated by connecting the negative
terminals of the speakers to Output 1 and Output 2 and the positive speaker terminals to ground.
