DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Efficiency
The output transistors of a class D amplifier act as switches. The power loss is mainly due to
the turn on resistance of the output transistors when driving current to the load. As the turn on
resistance is so small that the power loss is small and the power efficiency is high. With 8 ohm
load the power efficiency can be better than 85%.

Shutdown
The shutdown mode reduces power consumption. A LOW at shutdown pin forces the device in
shutdown mode and a HIGH forces the device in normal operating mode. Shutdown mode is
useful for power saving when not in use. This function is useful when other devices like
earphone amplifier on the same PCB are used but class D amplifier is not necessary.
Internal circuit for shutdown is shown below.

Pop-less
The setup time for the internal circuitry to be stable to drive the speaker is quite fast
(<100ms). But for Single-ended outputs the set up time for the output circuit to charge up the
output coupling capacitor (=1000uF) to half power voltage is quite long. As shown in the
following diagram, the RC constant caused by the voltage divider of equivalent resistance of
1.5k ohms(3kohms//3kohms) and the capacitance of 1000uF of the output coupling capacitor is
1.5 seconds. So to save pop noise the shutdown pin(SDNB) has to be LOW during power up. In
addition the shutdown pin has to stay LOW for about 5 seconds to wait for the output coupling
capacitor to be charged to half supply voltage.

Voltage gain
The voltage gain is defined in the table on page 3. For lower voltage gain one can add external
input resistors to input pins.

Automatic output Power Control (APC)

The voltage gain is self adjusted in the chip over voltage range. This means that, regardless
supply voltage change, the output power keeps about the same for a given input level from
VDD=5.5v to 2.5v. It allows the best use of the battery.

Output filter
Ferrite bead filter can be used for EMI purpose. The ferrite filter reduces EMI around 1 MHz and
higher（FCC and CE only test radiated emissions greater than 30 MHz）. When selecting a
ferrite bead, choose one with high impedance at high frequencies, but low impedance at low
frequencies.
Use an LC output filter if there are low frequency（＜1 MHz）EMI sensitive circuits and/or there
are long wires from the amplifier to the speaker. EMI is also affected by PCB layout and the
placement of the surrounding components.

The suggested LC values for different speaker impendence are showed in following figures for
reference.

Typical LC Output Filter, Speaker Impedance=4Ω

Typical LC Output Filter, Speaker Impedance=6Ω & 8Ω

（Chip bead example：遠越科技 KML2012Q102N
1kohms@100MHz, DCR=0.2ohms, I=1A）

EARPHONE USE
Class-D output can be used to drive earphone. However to avoid high power to overdrive
earphone and to prevent human ear to accidentally be hurt, a resistor has to be put in series
with the earphone speaker. Typically a resistor of 330 ohms is adequate for this purpose.

Over temperature protection

A temperature sensor is built in the device to detect the temperature inside the device. When
a high temperature around 145oC and above is detected the switching output signals are
disabled to protect the device from over temperature. Automatic recovery circuit enables the
device to come back to normal operation when the internal temperature of the device is below
around 120oC.

Over current protection

A current detection circuit is built in the device to detect the switching current of the output
stages of the device. It disables the device when the current is beyond about 3.5amps. It
protects the device when there is an accident short between outputs or between output and
power/gnd pins. It also protects the device when an abnormal low impedance is tied to the
output. High current beyond the specification may potentially causes electron migration and
permanently damage the device. Shutdown or power down is necessary to resolve the
protection situation. There is no automatic recovery from over current protection.
