A public address system is connected to a microphone that has a maximum output voltage of 10mV. The microphone is connected to a 10 watt audio amplifier system that is driving an 8 Ohm speakers. The voltage amplifier is non-iverting op-amp circuit. Calculate the maximum voltage gain for the voltage amplifier stage and determine the resistor values to obtain the desired gain. Assume the power amplifier stage has a voltage gain of 1.
