3.2.4Differential Input

The TPA6011A4 line inputs allow the use of a single-ended or differential audio source. The differential input stage of the amplifier cancels any noise that appears on both input lines of a channel. To use the TPA6011A4 EVM with a differential source, connect the positive lead of the audio source to the R LINE– (L LINE–) input and the negative lead from the audio source to the R IN+ (L IN+) input. To use the TPA6011A4 with a single-ended source, ac-ground the R IN+ and L IN+ inputs and apply the audio signal to the R LINE– and L LINE– inputs. Line and headphone inputs share common positive inputs. If using separate line and headphone inputs, R IN+ and L IN+ should be ac-grounded. If using differential inputs, line and headphone inputs must be the same. In a single-ended input application, the R IN+ and L IN+ inputs should be ac-grounded at the audio source instead of at the device inputs for best noise performance.
