Ahhhh, so neither you nor Spokey can prove your own bullshit, and it's time to "move on" because I used the term "chip" which is interchangeable with "Integrated Circuit"?

You two are genuinely pathetic, and just spent PAGES on this thread proving it, when you could have spent a single post just proving your claims of a mono amp with multiple outputs.

To avoid claims to the contrary, woudl you like all the words that can be interchanged with "pathetic"?
Hypocrite. I see you have no problem using terminology that is "interchangeable" when it helps YOUR argument but when I use other terms for the same items being spoken about you say no. You are the pathetic one Rob.

"Interchangeable" is not the same as "entirely different".
If I said "15" speaker", or "15" driver", would you be confused? Have to go take a nap until your brain calmed down?
What if I said "car" versus "automobile"
"Ketchup" versus "catsup"?

In electronics an Integrated Circuit IS a "chip"and "chip" IS an integrated circuit.
I can imagine you saying "that's technically not a Xerox; it's a PHOTOCOPY made on a Toshiba machine". Or "You used Bing to search for that, but said you 'Googled' it. That's not accurate".
Nerd.

Or, did you think I was asking about a mono potato chip with multiple outputs?
Maybe you thought I was asking about the idiom "chip on your shoulder", and wondered how such a thing could be mono with an output?
Maybe the little piece missing from your front tooth after you chipped it on the bus window?

Holy ****, even your attempts at using semantics to spin away from your failure are a failure.

Oh, and why did you post a picture this stereo chip, reference it as a "chip", and try to use it as proof that a mono amp has multiple outputs? Especially when the pinout diagram shows only one output per input?

Well then I have some news for you bucko. A power output transistor is NOT an integrated circuit.
 
I mean... I could have read this wrong when I asked if a power output transistor was and integrated circuit but...

No, a power output transistor is not considered an integrated circuit (IC); while a transistor is a fundamental component of an IC, a single power output transistor by itself is a discrete component, meaning it is a separate, individual electronic part, not integrated with other components on a single chip like in an IC.




Explanation:
  • Integrated Circuit (IC):
    An IC is a semiconductor chip where multiple electronic components like transistors, resistors, and capacitors are fabricated together on a single substrate, creating a complex circuit within a small package.


  • Power Output Transistor:
    This is a type of transistor designed specifically to handle high power levels, often used in applications like amplifiers or power supplies. While it can be part of a larger IC circuit, when considered alone, it is a discrete component.

Key points to remember:
  • A transistor is a basic building block of electronics, but it can exist as a single component (not an IC) or be integrated within a larger IC.


  • Many modern electronic circuits utilize both discrete transistors and integrated circuits depending on the function needed.

When did I ever ask you to show me a mono "transistor" with multiple outputs?
When did I ever ask you to show me a schematic of a mono transistor with multiple outputs?
When did I ever reference a "mono transistor" with regard to its ":multiple outputs"?

The word "transistor" appears in FOUR posts I have made.
In none of them was there ever a request for either of you dolts to show me a mono "transistor" with "multiple outputs".
Just because your memory is shit, doesn't mean MINE is.

So I'll ask yet again:
JUST SHARE THE SCHEMATIC OF A MONO AMP WITH MULTIPLE OUTPUTS DIRECT FROM THE AMP AND I WILL ADMIT I AM WRONG.

So now you are changing what you demand once again. Why are you omitting the word CHIP?
