100 W 8 ohms MOSFET amplifier with IRF9540 - IRF540

The Schematic Diagram is a basic MOSFET amplifier. Output power is 100 Wrms under 8 ohms or 160 Wrms under 4 ohms with distortion is 0.001 %. Bandwidth at -3 db is from 4 Hz to 100 Khz .
Input sensitivity is 1.2 volts. The gain of 27DB is archived by R7/R6. It may be modified by changing R7 value. Transistors T5 and T6 makes the second differential stage. Transistors T3 and T4 works as a current mirror source. They push the second differential stage to drain equal current. Doing so we get a high gain and an excellent linearity. Output MOSFET transistors works in AB class, their quiescent current is set at 100 mA trough P1. For setting quiescient current, you must set P1 in minimal resistance, place a multimeter in mV DC range on R14 or R15 leads, turn slowly the screw until you read a 33 mV value, which correspond to a 100 mA quiescent current.
F1 and F2 works as an elementary output short-circuit protection. The power supply must have a value between 45 and 55 Volts DC (positive and negative). One heatsink with a thermal resistance less of 2° C / W is required.
All resistors are 1% metal film 1/4 watt. Before connecting a speaker to the amplifier output, connect a multimeter to the output and look on DC output voltage. This level must not be greater than 50 mV. If it is so, check all amplifier for error. Also, change T2 with another device and check again. This amplifier is very simple to build and low cost.

power supply
One 2x40 volts 225 VA transformer is exactly what we need for one mono amplifier. For a stereo amplifier, one 2x40 volts 500 VA transformer is required.
Use at least 4x6800 µF 63-80 V reservoir capacitors. The more caps you use, the better the  ripple rejection.
4K7 5W resistors are used to discharge reservoir capacitors once mains is set off.

To celebrate the hundredth design posted to this website, and to fulfil the requests of many correspondents wanting an amplifier more powerful than the 25W MosFet, a 60 - 90W High Quality power amplifier design is presented here.
Circuit topology is about the same of the above mentioned amplifier, but the extremely rugged IRFP240 and IRFP9240 MosFet devices are used as the output pair, and well renowned high voltage Motorola's transistors are employed in the preceding stages.
The supply rails voltage was kept prudentially at the rather low value of + and - 40V. For those wishing to experiment, the supply rails voltage could be raised to + and - 50V maximum, allowing the amplifier to approach the 100W into 8 Ohm target: enjoy!
A matching, discrete components, Modular Preamplifier design is available here: Modular Audio Preamplifier.
Notes:
• In the original circuit, a three-diode string was wired in series to R10. Two of these diodes are now replaced by a red LED in order to achieve improved quiescent current stability over a larger temperature range. Thanks to David Edwards of LedeAudio for this suggestion.
• A small, U-shaped heatsink must be fitted to Q6 & Q7.
• Q8 & Q9 must be mounted on large heatsinks.
• Quiescent current can be measured by means of an Avo-meter wired in series to the positive supply rail and no input signal.
• Set the Trimmer R10 to its minimum resistance.
• Power-on the amplifier and adjust R10 to read a current drawing of about 120 - 130mA.
• Wait about 15 minutes, watch if the current is varying and readjust if necessary.
• The value suggested for C1 and C2 in the Power Supply Parts List is the minimum required for a mono amplifier. For optimum performance and in stereo configurations, this value should be increased: 10000µF is a good compromise.
• A correct grounding is very important to eliminate hum and ground loops. Connect to the same point the ground sides of R1, R3, C2, C3 and C4 and the ground input wire. Connect R7 and C7 to C11 to output ground. Then connect separately the input and output grounds to the power supply ground.
