As the title says....In the datasheet it says the max supply voltage for the BB OPA2134 is +-18 or 36V. I am wanting to build a single ended supply amplifier with a descreet voltage regulator, a boost converter actually to increase my battery power or transformer from 24V to 36V. I know most op amps swing within about 3V from their rails so if I could boost to 36V, could this get me upto about 30V p2p output? I am using this as a preamp for a class B audio stage with darlington transistors for output and negative feedback and biasing diodes. TIP41 and 42 are my power transistors and I am using BC547 and 557 for the front of the darlington pair. Using my dual 12v battery supply I was able to get 5 watts RMS out of the device...So now I want to go single ended and boost all the way upto as far as I can to get as much voltage and thus power output, possible.
Will the TIP42/42 handle all the potential power that a 36V power supply can create(with a 4 or maybe 8 ohm load) That would be upwards towards 56 watts RMS with a 36V supply(15V/4ohm * 15V). 25-40RMS would also be nice to get from this simple circuit. Will it work?
