Using The TPA0202 EVM With the Plug-N-Play Evaluation Platform

3.3.2.5S5 Ð VDD Bridge Jumper

Jumper S5 connects the module LVDD power supply line to the RVDD power supply line. When the TPA0202 EVM is plugged into the platform, both VDD supplies are sourced from the same platform power bus, so the state of jumper S5 is irrelevant.

If the EVM is used stand-alone, jumper S5 can be set to ON to simplify connection of the module to external power, or set to OFF to allow each amplifier channel to be powered from a separate supply.

3.3.2.6S6 Ð Autosense Jumper

To automatically select the headphone inputs when the single-ended output mode is selected by the module SE/BTL* control input, set autosense control jumper S6 to ON.

Jumper S6 connects the SE/BTL output mode select pin of the amplifier IC to the HP/LINE input select pin of the amplifier IC so that the HP input is selected automatically when the single-ended output mode is selected by the mode signal applied to the module SE/BTL* control input pin.

Note that when autosense jumper S6 is set to ON, the headphone input and the single-ended output mode are selected, and the SE/BTL* control signal will have no effect, if either jumper S3 or jumper S4 are set to ON.

3.3.2.7S7 Ð SE Output Mode Switch

Pushbutton switch S7 on the TPA0202 EVM allows the manual selection of the single-ended output mode.

When used in conjunction with mute switch S2, output thumps and pops that might occur when returning to normal operation from the mute mode can be eliminated by releasing mute switch S2 half a second before releasing the SE output mode switch S7 (see the TPA0202 data sheet for more information).

In a typical application, this sequencing can be controlled by the system micro- controller or external logic.

3.3.2.8S8 Ð Junction Temperature Measurement Jumper

Set junction temperature measurement jumper S8 to OFF for normal operation.

The TPA0202 amplifier IC sources a current proportional to the device junction temperature that can be measured at the terminals of jumper S8 with an ammeter. This is not intended as a real-time measurement, but as an aid to the design and characterization of the PCB on which the IC is mounted. See the TPA0202 IC data sheet for additional information.
