3.2 Amplifier Capability
Model LVC 608/623/2016 is a well-built power supply amplifier. It is capable of
delivering precision power levels in a wide range of demands and with a variety of
loads. When demands exceed the limits, there are several ways to increase the
amplifier s capability. If these special operating modes are still unable to meet
power requirements, contact

ECHRON
and/or consider using an

model or models with higher power handling capacity.
The LVC 608/623/2016 has three main operating modes; Dual, Bridge-Mono,
and Parallel-Mono. The Dual Mode is considered standard with the Mono Modes
used in special applications. There are a number of precautions, which should be
taken when operating the amplifier in either Mono Mode.

The input must be to Channel 1 ONLY .
 The input to Channel 2 and controls for Channel 2 are NOT defeated in either
mono mode, therefor no connection to Channel 2 may be made in either mono
mode.
 The Channel 2 level control should be turned down (counter clockwise) fully
in either mono mode.
NOTE: Gain Switch for Channel 2 makes no difference.
3.2.1 Bridge-Mono Applications
Bridge-Mono is intended for loads of 4 ohms or greater. The feedback loop for
Channel 1 also drives the input to Channel 2 in this mono mode. The input to
Channel 2 is, however, inverted. This causes the output of Channel 2 to be of
equal magnitude and opposite polarity (for double voltage output). The output of
the amplifier is balanced, and channel hot output is connected to load hot (+),
Channel 2 hot output is connected to load return (-).
3.2.2 Parallel-Mono Application
Parallel Mono is intended for loads less than 4 ohms in a monaural amplifier
configuration. The Channel 1 and 2 amplifier hot outputs must be shorted by an
external shorting buss (10 AWG or larger). The amplifier output to the load(s) is
taken from either channel's hot output to load hot, and either channel's negative
output to the load return (-). The shorting buss must be removed prior to changing
from Parallel Mono to either other mode.
