Abstract

A loudspeaker protection circuit senses an overload condition caused by an improper input signal or a fault within the amplifier by sensing a DC or infrasonic signal applied to the loudspeaker. The time between zero (axis) crossings of the amplifier output signal, which are related to the lower frequency components of the signal, are detected. If the period of time between zero crossings exceeds a predetermined time limit, the supply of the amplifier output signal to the loudspeaker is interrupted. In order to prevent false tripping of the circuit by normal conditions, the circuit only responds to signals exceeding a predetermined voltage level.
