The PWM amplifier output power calculator is used to determine the effective root mean square (rms) power for a given speaker load. The spreadsheet is configured to calculate the actual power delivered to the speaker load for three typical speaker-load configurations, half-bridge tied, full-bridge tied and parallel full-bridge tied. For more details, please view the Application Note.
