Frequently Asked Questions
How much output power does LM386MMX-1/NOPB deliver and at what supply voltage?
The LM386MMX-1/NOPB delivers 325 mW nominal output power into an 8-ohm speaker when powered from a 6 V supply. Operation is supported across a 4 V to 12 V supply range, making it compatible with 3-cell AA battery packs and standard 9 V alkaline batteries commonly used in portable audio products.
How can engineers adjust the voltage gain of LM386MMX-1/NOPB between 20 and 200?
Gain is set by placing a capacitor or resistor-capacitor network between pins 1 and 8 of the LM386MMX-1/NOPB. With pins 1 and 8 open, the internal gain is fixed at 20; adding a 10 µF capacitor raises gain to 200. Intermediate values are achievable by inserting a series resistor between 0 ohm and 1.2 kohm.
Which product categories most commonly use LM386MMX-1/NOPB in production designs?
LM386MMX-1/NOPB is widely used in AM/FM portable radios, intercoms, guitar effect pedals, and toy speaker modules where 325 mW audio output from a single-supply 4 V to 12 V rail is sufficient. Its low external component count also makes it popular in hobbyist and educational electronics kits requiring a simple audio amplifier.
Is LM386MMX-1/NOPB a direct RoHS-compliant replacement for the older LM386N through-hole variant?
The LM386MMX-1/NOPB is the RoHS-compliant SOIC surface-mount equivalent of the through-hole LM386N-1, offering the same 325 mW output, 4 V to 12 V supply range, and 20-200 gain range in an 8-pin package. Migrating from through-hole to SOIC reduces PCB area and enables automated SMT assembly, which lowers manufacturing cost at volume.
