Measuring Loudspeaker Voicecoil Temperature

Authors: Buck, Marshall

AES Convention 106 · Paper 4969 · May 1999

Abstract

A system for measuring voicecoil temperature and true power in real time has been developed using the G programming language and a PC with a data acquisition board. A constant current source, filters, and analog multiplier provide high accuracy. The system can be applied without the need to model the loudspeaker's equivalent circuit in advance. Typical experimental results are presented which inform design engineering choices.
