1.2 Description

The TPA6101A2 audio power amplifier evaluation module is a complete, low-power stereo audio power amplifier for high-fidelity line-level output, headphone, and small speaker applications. It consists of the TI TPA6101A2 50-mW stereo audio power amplifier IC in a very small MSOP package, along with a small number of other parts mounted on a circuit board that is approximately one and a quarter inches square (see Figure 1–1).

†Due to the very small size of the MSOP IC package, the standard part number TPA6101A2 is replaced with the code TIAJM.

Single in-line header pins are mounted to the underside of the module circuit board to allow the EVM to be plugged into the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform, or to be wired directly into existing circuits and equipment when used stand-alone.

The platform has room for a single TPA6101A2 evaluation module and is a convenient vehicle for demonstrating TI’s audio power amplifier and related evaluation modules. The EVMs simply plug into the platform, which automatically provides power to the modules, interconnects them correctly, and connects them to a versatile array of standard audio input and output jacks and connectors. Easy-to-use configuration controls allow the platform and EVMs to quickly model many possible end-equipment configurations.

There is nothing to build, nothing to solder, and nothing but the speakers included with the platform to hook up.
