The TPA311 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module

3.2 The TPA311 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module

The TPA311 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module is powered by a TPA311 350-mW Low-Power Audio Amplifier IC and includes on-board gain adjustment, a shutdown control signal input with on-board switch, and can be operated in either the BTL or single-ended output mode.

The module can be used with the TI Plug-N-Play Audio Amplifier Evaluation Platform (Figure 3±1) or wired directly into circuits or equipment. The module has single in-line header connector pins mounted to the under side of the board. These pins allow the module to be plugged into the TI platform, which automatically makes all the signal input and output, power, and control connections to the module.

The module connection pins are on 0.1-inch centers to allow easy use with standard perf board and plug board-based prototyping systems, or to be wired directly into existing circuits and equipment when used stand-alone.

The module appears in Figure 3±2 and its schematic is shown in Figure 3±3.
