NXP Semiconductors TFA9812
BTL stereo Class-D audio amplifier with I2S input
The I2C controls for selecting the +24 dB gain can be found in Section 9.5.6. The GAIN
pin has no function In I2C mode.
The TFA9812 features also specific gain settings which are related to < 0.5 %, 10 %, 20 %
or 30 % clipping at the output of the TFA9812. These clipping values are only valid under
the following conditions:
•The volume control is set to 0 dB.
•The gain boost is set to 0 dB.
•A 0 dBFs I2S input signal is obtained.
The I2C controls for selecting a specific clip level can be found in Section 9.5.6. In Legacy
mode the clip level is set to 10 %.
8.5.6 Output power limiter
Output power can be limited to three discrete levels with respect to the maximum power.
The maximum power output value is determined by the value of the high voltage supply.
Clipping levels (see Section 8.5.5) still apply to the maximum levels of reduced output
voltage swings.
In I2C control mode the same output power limiting levels can be selected, see
Section 9.5.6. In Legacy control mode two pins can be used to select the output power
limit level as shown in Table 18.
8.5.7 PWM control for performance improvement
The PWM switching frequency of the TFA9812 is dependent on:
•The sampling frequency, fs.
•The sampling frequency setting, fs(selected) (see Section 9.5.7).
•The PWM switching frequency setting, fsw (selected) (see Section 9.5.6).
Equation 9 shows the relationship between these settings and the PWM carrier
frequency:
