by providing an inherently, dynamically protected Safe Oper-
ating Area (SOA).

Protection means that these parts
are completely safeguarded at the output against overvolt-
age, undervoltage, overloads, including shorts to the sup-
plies, thermal runaway, and instantaneous temperature
peaks.
The LM3875 maintains an excellent Signal-to-Noise Ratio of
greater than 95 dB(min) with a typical low noise floor of
2.0 碌V. It exhibits extremely low (THD + N) values of 0.06%
at the rated output into the rated load over the audio spec-
trum, and provides excellent linearity with an IMD (SMPTE)
typical rating of 0.004%.
