So I want to make a tda2050 amlifier with 4 of these chips, and after posting a lot of questions about different audio chips here, the chips always turn out to draw a few amps EACH as said in the datasheet.
On this chip it says a max of 5 amps and people always tell me to supply them with a transformer what can supply that much for each chip (the max). but I don't see why because I have been powering the tda2050 with a 400ma transformer reading that the chip only draws about 200 MAX when playing audio with a 4 ohm load. So why can't I just use like a 2A transformer to power 4 of these chips?
