I have my eye on the TDA2822 dual audio amp. As with many popular audio amplifiers of recent decades it includes a Zobel network (Req and Ceq in the schematic above) to compensate for the reactance of the speaker.
My question is: In applications which do not include a reactive component like a speaker, using an IC like the TDA2822 (or for that matter the ever-popular LM386), such as when driving a diode bridge balanced modulator, be stable without the Zobel network?
I suspect some of us have been through this in more depth than I have, and I solicit your opinions as to whether or not such uses will be stable and relatively free from ringing.
Opinions, please.
