Two of the amplifier's have externally configurable gain while the other amplifier is internally fixed at the bias point acting as a unity-gain buffer. The closedloop gain of the two configurable amplifiers is set by selecting the ratio of Rf to Ri. Consequently, the gain for each channel of the IC is The maximum power dissipation point obtained from Equation 2 must not be greater than the power dissipation that results from Equation 3: AVD = -(Rf / Ri) PDMAX = (TJMAX - TA) / JA By driving the loads through outputs VoA and VoB with VoC acting as a buffered bias voltage the LM4929 does not require output coupling capacitors. The classical singleended amplifier configuration where one side of the load is connected to ground requires large, expensive output coupling capacitors. For package MUB10A, JA = 190C/W. TJMAX = 150C for the LM4929. Depending on the ambient temperature, TA, of the system surroundings, Equation 3 can be used to find the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC packaging. If the result of Equation 2 is greater than that of Equation 3, then either the supply voltage must be decreased, the load impedance increased or TA reduced. For the typical application of a 3V power supply, with a 32 load, the maximum ambient temperature possible without violating the maximum junction temperature is approximately 144C provided that device operation is around the maximum power dissipation point. Thus, for typical applications, power dissipation is not an issue. Power dissipation is a function of output power and thus, if typical operation is not around the maximum power dissipation point, the ambient temperature may be increased accordingly. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics curves for power dissipation information for lower output powers. PDMAX = 4(VDD) A configuration such as the one used in the LM4929 has a major advantage over single supply, single-ended amplifiers. Since the outputs VoA, VoB, and VoC are all biased at 1/2 VDD, no net DC voltage exists across each load. This eliminates the need for output coupling capacitors which are required in a single-supply, single-ended amplifier configuration. Without output coupling capacitors in a typical singlesupply, single-ended amplifier, the bias voltage is placed across the load resulting in both increased internal IC power dissipation and possible loudspeaker damage. The LM4929 eliminates these output coupling capacitors by running in OCL mode. Unless shorted to ground, VoC is internally configured to apply a 1/2 VDD bias voltage to a stereo headphone jack's sleeve. This voltage matches the bias voltage present on VoA and VoB outputs that drive the headphones. The headphones operate in a manner similar to a bridge-tied load (BTL). Because the same DC voltage is applied to both headphone speaker terminals this results in no net DC current flow through the speaker. AC current flows through a headphone speaker as an audio signal's output amplitude increases on the speaker's terminal. www.national.com / (22RL) (2) (3) MICRO POWER SHUTDOWN The voltage applied to the SHUTDOWN pin controls the LM4929's shutdown function. Activate micro-power shutdown by applying a logic-low voltage to the SHUTDOWN pin. When active, the LM4929's micro-power shutdown feature turns off the amplifier's bias circuitry, reducing the supply current. The trigger point varies depending on supply voltage and is shown in the Shutdown Hysteresis Voltage graphs in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. The low 0.1A(typ) shutdown current is achieved by applying a voltage that is as near as ground as possible to the SHUTDOWN pin. A voltage that is higher than ground may increase the shutdown current. There are a few ways to control the micro-power shutdown. These include using a single-pole, single-throw switch, a microprocessor, or a microcontroller. When using a switch, connect an external 100k pull-up resistor between the SHUTDOWN pin and VDD. Connect the switch between the SHUTDOWN pin and ground. Select normal amplifier operation by opening the switch. Closing the switch connects the SHUTDOWN pin to ground, activating micro-power shutdown. POWER DISSIPATION Power dissipation is a major concern when using any power amplifier and must be thoroughly understood to ensure a successful design. When operating in capacitor-coupled mode, Equation 1 states the maximum power dissipation point for a single-ended amplifier operating at a given supply voltage and driving a specified output load. 2 / (22RL) POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING As with any amplifier, proper supply bypassing is important for low noise performance and high power supply rejection. The capacitor location on the power supply pins should be as close to the device as possible. Typical applications employ a 3V regulator with 10mF tantalum or electrolytic capacitor and a ceramic bypass capacitor which aid in supply stability. This does not eliminate the need for bypassing the supply nodes of the LM4929. A bypass capacitor value in the range of 0.1F to 1F is recommended for CS. The headphone jack's sleeve is not connected to circuit ground when used in OCL mode. Using the headphone output jack as a line-level output will place the LM4929's 1/2 VDD bias voltage on a plug's sleeve connection. This presents no difficulty when the external equipment uses capacitively coupled inputs. For the very small minority of equipment that is DC coupled, the LM4929 monitors the current supplied by the amplifier that drives the headphone jack's sleeve. If this current exceeds 500mAPK, the amplifier is shutdown, protecting the LM4929 and the external equipment. PDMAX = (VDD) 2 (1) 10 cent DC voltage. This charge comes from the output via the feedback Thus, by minimizing the capacitor size based on necessary low frequency response, turn-on time can be minimized. A small value of Ci (in the range of 0.1F to 0.39F), is recommended. (Continued) The switch and resistor guarantee that the SHUTDOWN pin will not float. This prevents unwanted state changes. In a system with a microprocessor or microcontroller, use a digital output to apply the control voltage to the SHUTDOWN pin. Driving the SHUTDOWN pin with active circuitry eliminates the pull-up resistor. AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER DESIGN A 25mW/32 AUDIO AMPLIFIER Shutdown enable/disable times are controlled by a combination of CB and VDD. Larger values of CB results in longer turn on/off times from Shutdown. Smaller VDD values also increase turn on/off time for a given value of CB. Longer shutdown times also improve the LM4929's resistance to click and pop upon entering or returning from shutdown. For a 2.4V supply and CB = 4.7F, the LM4929 requires about 2 seconds to enter or return from shutdown. This longer shutdown time enables the LM4929 to have virtually zero pop and click transients upon entering or release from shutdown. Smaller values of CB will decrease turn-on time, but at the cost of increased pop and click and reduced PSRR. Since shutdown enable/disable times increase dramatically as supply voltage gets below 2.2V, this reduced turn-on time may be desirable if extreme low supply voltage levels are used as this would offset increases in turn-on time caused by the lower supply voltage. This technique is not recommended for OCL mode since shutdown enable/disable times are very fast (0.5s) independent of supply voltage. Given: Power Output Load Impedance Input Level 25mWrms 32 1Vrms Input Impedance 20k A designer must first determine the minimum supply rail to obtain the specified output power. By extrapolating from the Output Power vs Supply Voltage graphs in the Typical Performance Characteristics section, the supply rail can be easily found. 3V is a standard voltage in most applications, it is chosen for the supply rail. Extra supply voltage creates headroom that allows the LM4929 to reproduce peak in excess of 25mW without producing audible distortion. At this time, the designer must make sure that the power supply choice along with the output impedance does not violate the conditions explained in the Power Dissipation section. Once the power dissipation equations have been addressed, the required gain can be determined from Equation 2. PROPER SELECTION OF EXTERNAL COMPONENTS Proper selection of external components in applications using integrated power amplifiers is critical to optimize device and system performance. While the LM4929 is tolerant of external component combinations, consideration to component values must be used to maximize overall system quality. (4) The LM4929 is unity-gain stable which gives the designer maximum system flexibility. The LM4929 should be used in low gain configurations to minimize THD+N values, and maximize the signal to noise ratio. Low gain configurations require large input signals to obtain a given output power. Input signals equal to or greater than 1Vrms are available from sources such as audio codecs. Very large values should not be used for the gain-setting resistors. Values for Ri and Rf should be less than 1M. Please refer to the section, Audio Power Amplifier Design, for a more complete explanation of proper gain selection Besides gain, one of the major considerations is the closedloop bandwidth of the amplifier. To a large extent, the bandwidth is dictated by the choice of external components shown in Figure 2. The input coupling capacitor, Ci, forms a first order high pass filter which limits low frequency response. This value should be chosen based on needed frequency response and turn-on time. From Equation 4, the minimum AV is 0.89; use AV = 1. Since the desired input impedance is 20k, and with a AV gain of 1, a ratio of 1:1 results from Equation 1 for Rf to Ri. The values are chosen with Ri = 20k and Rf = 20k. The final design step is to address the bandwidth requirements which must be stated as a pair of -3dB frequency points. Five times away from a -3dB point is 0.17dB down from passband response which is better than the required 0.25dB specified. fL = 100Hz/5 = 20Hz fH = 20kHz * 5 = 100kHz As stated in the External Components section, Ri in conjunction with Ci creates a Ci 1 / (2 * 20k * 20Hz) = 0.397F; use 0.39F. The high frequency pole is determined by the product of the desired frequency pole, fH, and the differential gain, AV. With an AV = 1 and fH = 100kHz, the resulting GBWP = 100kHz which is much smaller than the LM4929 GBWP of 10MHz. This figure displays that is a designer has a need to design an amplifier with higher differential gain, the LM4929 can still be used without running into bandwidth limitations. Figure 3 shows an optional resistor connected between the amplifier output that drives the headphone jack sleeve and ground. This resistor provides a ground path that supressed power supply hum. Thishum may occur in applications such as notebook computers in a shutdown condition and connected to an external powered speaker. The resistor's 100 value is a suggested starting point. Its final value must be SELECTION OF INPUT CAPACITOR SIZE Amplifying the lowest audio frequencies requires a high value input coupling capacitor, Ci. A high value capacitor can be expensive and may compromise space efficiency in portable designs. In many cases, however, the headphones used in portable systems have little ability to reproduce signals below 60Hz. Applications using headphones with this limited frequency response reap little improvement by using a high value input capacitor. In addition to system cost and size, turn on time is affected by the size of the input coupling capacitor Ci. A larger input coupling capacitor requires more charge to reach its quies11 www.national.com LM4929 Application Information LM4929 Application Information (Continued) determined based on the tradeoff between the amount of noise suppression that may be needed and minimizing the additional current drawn by the resistor (25mA for a 100 resistor and a 5V supply).
