The TDA2003H by STMicroelectronics is a monolithic Class AB audio amplifier IC designed for robust performance in low-to-medium power audio applications. Housed in a 5-pentawatt package, it delivers 12W output power into a 1.6Ω load with a supply voltage range of 8V to 18V, making it suitable for automotive and portable audio systems. This obsolete part remains relevant for legacy designs due to its reliability and ease of integration. Compliant with ROHS3 and REACH Unaffected standards, it is ideal for environmentally conscious designs. The through-hole mounting ensures mechanical stability, while its non-MSLA (Moisture Sensitivity Level Not Applicable) status simplifies handling and storage.
The TDA2003H stands out as a versatile, durable Class AB amplifier with a proven track record in automotive and consumer audio. Its 12W output, wide voltage range, and robust packaging make it a reliable choice for engineers working on legacy systems or cost-sensitive designs. While newer alternatives exist, its simplicity, compliance, and thermal performance ensure continued relevance in specific niches. For applications demanding moderate power with minimal complexity, the TDA2003H remains a pragmatic solution.
