[0002] Power amplifiers are typically used to preprocess and amplify alarm audio signals to drive external speakers for air defense, disaster prevention, and alarm notification. Existing alarm and test tones have high output sound intensity, which can easily cause noise interference to residents and is unsuitable as a routine method for detecting the operational status of electro-acoustic alarm terminals. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a power amplifier system for an electro-acoustic alarm that supports out-of-band audio monitoring to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] An amplifier system for an electro-acoustic alarm supporting out-of-band audio monitoring includes a communication interface and control module, a test tone generation module, an audio processing module, a power amplification module, and a voltage and current monitoring module. The communication interface and control module receives control commands from the alarm control module and sends them to the corresponding modules. The test tone generation module generates out-of-band test audio with the required frequency and amplitude. The audio processing module processes the audio signals of the out-of-band test audio or alarm audio. The power amplification module amplifies the processed audio signals and outputs them to a speaker. Simultaneously, the voltage and current monitoring module monitors the voltage and current of the audio output channel and sends the monitoring data to the alarm control module through the communication interface and control module.
[0006] Preferably, the voltage and current monitoring module monitors four audio output channels.
[0007] Preferably, the operating frequency range of the loudspeaker is 300Hz to 8kHz.

[0012] Figure 1 This is a structural block diagram of the present utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0013] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0014] Example
[0015] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, this utility model discloses a power amplifier system for an electro-acoustic alarm that supports out-of-band audio monitoring. It includes a communication interface and control module, a test tone generation module, an audio processing module, a power amplification module, and a voltage and current monitoring module. The communication interface and control module receives control commands from the alarm control module and sends them to the corresponding modules. The test tone generation module generates out-of-band test audio with the required frequency and amplitude. The audio processing module processes the audio signals of the out-of-band test audio or alarm audio. The power amplification module amplifies the processed audio signals and outputs them to the speaker. Simultaneously, the voltage and current monitoring module monitors the voltage and current of the audio output channel and sends the monitoring data to the alarm control module through the communication interface and control module.
[0016] The voltage and current monitoring module monitors four audio output channels. The current detection module monitors the voltage and current of these four channels and, based on the measured data and pre-set judgment rules, determines the operating status of the amplifier and speaker in each channel. The results are then fed back to the alarm control module via the communication interface. Judgment rules: Based on the detectable voltage and current values exceeding a certain threshold for each channel, if the values meet the specified thresholds, the channel is considered normal; otherwise, an abnormality or malfunction exists.
[0017] The operating frequency range of loudspeakers is typically 300Hz to 8kHz. When driven by low-amplitude sine wave signals below 300Hz, no noticeable audible sound will be produced.
[0018] The communication interface and control module are bidirectionally connected to the alarm control module through the communication interface.
[0019] The audio processing module receives external alarm audio through the alarm audio input port.
[0020] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
