ABSTRACT:
A circuit for limiting temperature without distortion in audio power amplifiers, comprising a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature in an audio power amplifier, and a variable-gain amplifier connected ahead of the audio power amplifier circuit and having a gain control input connected to the temperature sensor to vary the input signal of the audio amplifier in a linear manner. A linear limitation of the power, and therefore of the temperature, is thus obtained in the audio amplifier without introducing distortion.
