Meaning of bad topology
After reading threads about Jan's amp, it is said that bad topology may drive LM6171 crazy. What is the meaning of bad topology? Is it the components are too closed? Is it the soldering is too bad? Is it that some rules should be followed when deciding the topology? or anything else...- kai_yip
