ICEpower Updates Existing Amplifier Modules with New Technology

The Danish purveyor of high-performance Class-D amplifiers, ICEpower, announced it will be progressively updating its amplifier modules with the full benefits of its new Conductor topology and integrated gate driver ICC5 chips, combined with refined design and functionality. The integration, ICEpower says, takes audio quality to the next level and redefines the company’s already renowned amplifier technology. First products to receive the updates are the 50ASX2, 125ASX2, 700AS1, and 700AS2 modules.

ICEpower A/S introduced the latest addition to its lineup of audio power solutions, the ICEpower ICC5. This audio integrated circuit (IC) boasts advanced technology, fast propagation delay, and support for up to a 220V supply voltage. As a high side and low side FET gate driver optimized for flexibility, the ICC5 enables high-fidelity sound with minimal noise and distortion, making it an ideal choice for reliable class D amplifier designs ranging from 25W to 4kW.
