Philips Semiconductors TFA9843AJ
20 W stereo power amplifier with volume control
7.2 Pin description
8. Functional description
8.1 Input configuration
The input cut-off frequency is as follows:
(1)
Single-ended application: Ri=60kΩand Ci= 220 nF:
(2)
As shown in Equation 2, large capacitor values for the inputs are not necessary; therefore
switch-on delay during charging of the input capacitors can be minimized. This results in a
good low frequency response and good switch-on behavior.
The TFA9843AJ has clamps on the inputs. In Standby mode the voltage on the input pins
is clamped for voltages lower than −0.1 V. When the TFA9843AJ is in Mute, Volume
control or Operating mode (maximum gain) the input clamp voltage is 1 V (RMS).
8.2 Power amplifier
The power amplifier is a single-ended amplifier with an all NPN output stage, capable of
delivering a peak output current of 4 A.
8.2.1 Output power measurement
The output power as a function of the supply voltage is measured on the output pins at
THD=10%;seeFigure 7. The maximum output power is limited by the supply voltage of
26 V and the maximum available output current is 4 A repetitive peak current. A minimum
load of 3 Ω is required for supply voltages > 22 V; see Figure 4. The output power is
measured with one channel driven.
