Abstract

The acoustic horn for automobiles is designed to operate at an approximately constant power level. The horn loudspeaker is driven by square wave signals from an amplifier. An oscillator provides a square wave output that is gated by a control signal from an operational amplifier that processes a sawtooth waveform signal from the oscillator. The operational amplifier output depends upon the input being compared with a voltage drop across the loudspeaker. The overall effect is that the loudspeaker receives pulses with a width inversely proportional to voltage to maintain constant power.
