1. General description
The TFA9890A is a high efficiency class-D audio amplifier with a sophisticated speaker
boost and protection algorithm. It can deliver 7.2 W peak output power into an 8
speaker at a supply voltage of 3.6 V. The internal boost converter raises the supply
voltage to 9.5 V, providing ample headroom for major improvements in sound quality.
A safe working environment is provided for the speaker under all operating conditions.
The TFA9890A maximizes acoustic output while ensuring diaphragm displacement and
voice coil temperature do not exceed their rated limits. This function is based on a
speaker box model that opera tes in all loudspeaker environment s (e.g. free air, closed box
or vented box). Furthermore, advanced signal processing ensures that the quality of the
audio signal is never degraded by unwanted clipping or distortion in the amplifier or
speaker.
Unlike competing solutions, the adaptive sound maximizer algorithm uses feedback to
accurately calculate both the temperature and the excursion, allowing the TFA9890A to
adapt to changes in the acoustic environment.
Internal intelligent DC-to-DC conversion boosts the supply rail to provide additional
headroom and power output. The supply voltage is only raised when necessary. This
maximizes the output power of the class-D audio amplifier while limiting quiescent power
consumption.
The TFA9890A also incorporates advanced battery protection. By limiting the supply
current when the battery voltage is low, it prevents the audio system from drawing
excessive load currents from the battery, which could cause a system undervoltage. The
advanced processor minimizes the impact of a falling battery voltage on the audio quality
by preventing distortion as the battery discharges.
The device features low RF susceptibility because it has a digital input interface that is
insensitive to clock jitter. The second order closed loop architecture used in a class-D
audio amplifier provides excellent audio performance and high supply voltage ripple
rejection. The audio input interfac e is I2S and the control settings are communicated via
an I2C-bus interface.
The device also provides the speaker with robust protection against ESD damage. In a
typical application, no additional components are needed to withstand a 15 kV discharge
on the speaker.
The TFA9890A is available in a 49-bump WLCSP (W afer Level Chip-Size Packa ge) with a
400 m pitch.

NXP Semiconductors TFA9890A
9.5 V boosted audio system with adaptive sound maximizer and
speaker protection
8. Functional description
The TFA9890A is a highly efficient mono Bridge Tied Load (BTL) class-D audio amplifier
with a sophisticated SpeakerBoost protecti on algorithm. Figure 1 is a block diagram of the
TFA9890A.
It contains three I2S input interfaces and one I2S output interface. One of I2S inputs
DATAI1 and DATAI2 can be selected as the audio input stream. The third I2S input,
DATAI3, is provided to support stereo applications. A ‘pass-through’ option allows one of
the I2S input interfaces to be conne cted directly to the I2S output. The pass-through option
is provided to allow an I2S output slave device (e.g. a CODEC), connected in parallel with
the TFA9890A , to be rou te d directly to the audio host via the I 2S output.
The I2S output signal on DATAO can be configured to transmit the DSP output signal,
amplifier output current information, DATAI3 Left or Right signal information or amplifier
gain information. The gain information can be used to facilitate communication between
two devices in stereo applications.
A SpeakerBoost protection algorithm, running on a CoolFlux Digital Signal Proces sor
(DSP) core, maximizes the acoustical output of the speaker while limiting membrane
excursion and voice coil temperature to a safe level. The mechanical protection
implemented guara ntee s that sp eaker me mbr ane excur sion n ever exceeds its rated limit,
to an accuracy of 10 %. Thermal protection guarantees that the voice coil temperature
never exceeds its rated limit, to an accuracy of 10 C. Furthermore, advanced signal
processing ensures that the audio quality is always acceptable.
The protection algorithm implements an adaptive loudspeaker model that is used to
predict the extent of membrane excursion. The model is continuously updated to ensure
that the protection scheme remains effective even when speaker parameter values
change or the acou stic enclosure is mo difie d .
Output sound pressure levels are boosted within gi ven mechanical, thermal and quality
limits. An optio nal Bandwidt h extension mode ex tends the low freq uency response up to a
predefined limit before maximizing the output le vel. This mode is suitable for listening to
high-quality music in quiet environments.
The frequency response of the TFA9890A can be modified via ten fully programmable
cascaded second-order biquad filters. The first two biquads are processed with 48-bit
double precision; biquads 3 to 8 are processed with 24-bit single precision.
At low battery voltage levels, the gai n is automatically reduced to limit battery current. The
output volume can be controlled by the SpeakerBoost protection algorithm or by the host
application (external). In the latter case, the boost fe atures of the S peakerBoost protection
algorithm must be disabled to avoid neutralizing external volume control.
The SpeakerBoost protection algorithm output is converted into two pulse width
modulated (PWM) signals which are then injected into the class-D audio amplifier. The
3-level PWM scheme su pp or ts filterless speaker drive.
An adaptive DC-to-DC converter boosts the battery supply voltage in line with the output
of the SpeakerBoost protection algorithm. It switches to Follower mode (VBST = VBAT; no
boost) when the audio output voltage is lower than the battery voltage.

NXP Semiconductors TFA9890A
9.5 V boosted audio system with adaptive sound maximizer and
speaker protection
8.1 Amplifier operating modes
The TFA9890A supports five operating modes:
Power-down mode, with low supply current
Operating mode, in which the amplifier is fully operational
Mute mode, in which the class-D output is switching but the audio input signal is
suppressed
Off mode, in which the device is biased, but the class-D output is floating
Fault mode, when a protection mecha nism (other than SpeakerBoost protection) has
been activated
8.1.1 Power-down mode
Power consumption is at a minimum in Power-down mode. The TFA9890A switches to
Power-down mode when:
the reset input (pin RST) goes HIGH (all digital circuits, including the DSP and RAM
memory, are reset)
VDDD is switched off (< 0.8 V), triggering a complete reset of the TFA9890A
I2C control bit I2CR is set to 1 (only the I2C registers are reset, the DSP and RAM
remain configured)
I2C control bit PWDN is set to 1 (the default setting, the TFA9890A is not reset when
PWDN is set to 1)
there is no valid clock signal on I2S inputs BCK or WS (re moving the I2S clock signals
does not cause the TFA9890A to be reset)
The I2C-bus remains ope rational in Power-down mode with the PWM outputs floating.
8.1.2 Operating mode
Operating mode is selected by applying a valid clock signal (see Section 8.3) to the WS
and BCK inputs.
In Operating mode, I2S data input 1 or 2 (DATAI1/DATAI2) is used as the audio input. By
default, the digital audio signal is processed in the CoolFlux DSP. The processed audio
signal is converted into a 3-level modulate d PWM signal th at is fed to the output te rminals.
By default, the CoolFlux DSP protects the speaker in Oper at ing mo de . Whe n the DSP is
bypassed, the I2S audio input is fed directly to the amplifier with fixed gain. The peak
output volt age is 8 V at 6 dBFS. If the input volt age is above this level, the output will clip
and the DC-to-DC converter output may be distorted.
Without speaker pr ot ection, a high outpu t vo ltage can damage the speaker. To avoid
over-driving the speaker, it is advised only to bypass the DSP at reduced input levels and
not to use the boost converter (see Section 8.4) when the CoolFlux DSP is bypassed.
Remark: In Operating mode, the TFA9890A expects the same frequency on WS as was
selected via bits I2SSR in the I2S control register (i.e. the input sample rate).

NXP Semiconductors TFA9890A
9.5 V boosted audio system with adaptive sound maximizer and
speaker protection
8.1.3 Mute mode
Soft muting is used to prevent audible pop noise. The transition from Operating mode to
Mute mode and from Mu te mode to Oper ating mode is implemen ted using an ex ponential
function. The tr ansition time is about 1 0 ms for a 48 kHz I2S input signal, and it scal es with
the frequency of the input signal. The I2S signal must be stable during the transition time.
Mute mode is implemented in th e CoolFlux DSP core and is only availabl e when CoolFlux
is not bypassed.
8.1.4 Off mode
In off mode , the outp ut s of the class-D amplifie r ar e floating a nd the d evice is fully biased.
The transition to Off mode can be direct, or can be combined with a soft mute (providing
the CoolFlux DSP is not bypassed; the I2S clock and WS signals must be stable when soft
mute is activated).
8.1.5 Fault mode
The TFA9890A switches to Fault mode when a protection mechanism is triggered. In
Fault mode, the class-D outputs are floating.
8.2 I2S interface and channel selection
I2S input interfaces 1 and 2 (DATAI1 and DATAI2) are multiplexed internally to the I2S
interface block (see Figure 1). I2C control bit ISEL is used to select the I2S interface. The
word select or bit clock signal of the selected I2S input can be used as the reference signal
for the I2S input interface, the I2S outp ut in te rface an d the Ph ased Locked L oop (PLL) . To
prevent pop and click noise, the TF A9890A should be in Off mode when the value of ISEL
is changed.
Note that the PLL clock is used as a reference for the entire chip. Crosstalk to the I2S
clock must also be prevented in the application. Extreme clock jitter can affect the
reliability of speaker measurements.
The I2S output, DAT AO, can be enabled (active) or disabled (floating). DA TAO can also be
connected directly to DATAI1, DATAI2 or DATAI3 by selecting pass-through mode.
8.3 Interface formats
The I2S digital audio formats supported by the TFA9890A are listed in Table 4. The I2S
digital audio format for the input and output interface is selected via bits I2SF in the I2S
control register.

8.4 DC-to-DC converter
The DC-to-DC converter in the TFA9890A operates independently of the amplifier. It
features a feed-forward control function that lowers the ripple on the boosted output
voltage.
Four converter modes are supported:
Disabled mode, when the class-D amplifier is supplied externally (not via the internal
DC-to-DC converter)
Follower mode, when input INB is switched low-ohmic to VBST (no boost; VBST =
battery voltage).
Boost mode, when the battery voltage is boosted
Adaptive boost mode, when the DC-to-DC conve rter boosts th e battery voltage in
line with the audio signal.

10.1 TFA9890A addressing
The TFA9890A is accessed via an 8-bit code (see Table 7). Bits 1 to 7 contain the device
address. Bit 0 (R/W) indicates whether a read (1) or a write (0) operation has been
requested. Four separate addresses are supported for stereo applications. Address
selection is via pins ADS1 and ADS2. The levels on pins ADS1 and ADS2 determine the
values of bits 1 and 2, respectively, of the device address, as detailed in Table 7. The
generic address is independent of pins ADS1 and ADS2.

[2] This parameter is not tested during production; the value is guaranteed by design and checked during product validation.
[3] The soft mute delay is the delay of the cosine role off of the audio. The pilot tone is removed at the zero crossing after a soft mute, with
a delay of td(pilot_off). This takes a maximum of 21 ms (average 11 ms) at an input sample rate of 12 kHz, 24 kHz or 48 kHz. At an input
sample rate of 8 kHz, 16 kHz or 32 kHz, the delay is 32 ms (max). So the worst case mute delay is 12 + 21 = 33 or 12 + 32 = 44 ms,
depending on the sample frequency.

NXP Semiconductors TFA9890A
9.5 V boosted audio system with adaptive sound maximizer and
speaker protection
components are 10 nF, 20 F and 1 H, respectively. A 100 nF decoupling capacitor
(CVDDD) must be connected close to the VDDD pin. The to tal cap acitance at this supply line
should be at least 1 F.
14.1.1 DC-to-DC converter output capacitor
A ceramic capacitor is required at the output of the DC-to-DC converter (CVDDP).
Capacitors constructed using X5R (55 C to +85 C) or X7R (55 C to +125 C)
dielectric materials are preferred because they are compact, feature low ESR and are
sufficiently stable over a wide temperature range. The capacitance value decreases over
the DC biasing voltage range (30 % to 70 % decrease). Consequently, the nominal value
of the capacitor should be close to twice the minimum value specified.
Remark: The DC-to-DC converter capacitor connected to BST is critical for stability. The
recommended effective value (the capacitance value at the maximum boost voltage) of
CVDDP depends on the coil inductance, and is given in Table 14. The position of the
capacitor and the layout of th e board are also critical. It is recommended to co nnect CVDDP
as close as possible to the BST and GNDD pins without vias in the PCB tracks.
In many applications, it is desirable to limit the height of co mponents as mu ch as possible.
This can be achieved for CVDDP by connecting two smaller capacitors in parallel. The
rated voltage should be 10 V or higher.
14.1.2 Supply capacitor
CBST can be about half the value of CVDDP.
14.1.3 DC-to-DC converter inductor
An inductor is required at the output of the DC-to-DC converter (LBST). For stability, the
inductance of the coil should remain above 0.7 H and below 1.2 H under all conditions.
A DC-to-DC coil value of 1 H or less is strongly recommended. If the coil value is
increased, the value of the output capacitor will also need to be increased by at least the
same factor. If the output capacitor is not large enough, the DC-to-DC converter will be
unstable. The positioning of the output capacitor on the PCB is also critical. The capacitor
must be located as close as possible to the TFA9890A and the connections between them
should be on the top layer. A nominal value of 1 H provides the optimum balance
between current capability, component size and efficiency.
The choice of inductor is strongly influenced by the impedance of the sp eaker used in th e
application. The speaker impedance determ ines the output current of the DC-to -DC
converter . The minimum required batter y voltage, the boost volt age and the inductor value
determine the pe a k induct or curr en t (I LM).
14.1.4 Reset pin (RST)
If the reset pin is not used, it is advised to connect it directly to ground. It has an internal
pull-down resistance of 100 k.

voltage)

16. Soldering of WLCSP packages
16.1 Introduction to soldering WLCSP packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering WLCSP (Wafer Level Chip-Size Packages) can be found in application note
AN10439 “Wafer Level Chip Scale Package” and in application note AN10365 “Surface
mount reflow soldering description”.
Wave soldering is not suitable for this package.
All NXP WLCSP packages are lead-free.
16.2 Board mounting
Board mounting of a WLCSP requires several steps:
1. Sold er paste printing on the PCB
2. Component placement with a pick an d place machine
3. The reflow soldering itself
16.3 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
Lead-free ve rsus SnPb soldering; note th at a lead-free reflow process usua lly leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 19) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
Solder paste printing issues, such as smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature), and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enoug h for the solder to make reliable solder joint s (a solder paste
characterist ic) while be ing low enou g h th at th e packages an d/ or boa rd s ar e no t
damaged. The peak temperature of the package depends on package thickness and
volume and is classified in accordance with Table 15.
Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all
times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 19.

9.5 V boosted audio system with adaptive sound maximizer and
speaker protection
For further information on temperature profiles, refer to application note AN10365
“Surface mount reflow soldering description”.
16.3.1 Stand off
The stand off between the substrate and the chip is determined by:
The amount of printed solder on the substrate
The size of the solder land on the substrate
The bump height on the chip
The higher the stand off, the better the stresses are released due to TEC (Thermal
Expansion Coefficient) differences between substrate and chip.
16.3.2 Quality of solder joint
A flip-chip joint is considered to be a good joint when the entire solder land has been
wetted by the solder from the bump. The surface of the joint should be smooth and the
shape symmetrical. The soldered joints on a chip should be uniform. Voids in the bumps
after reflow can occur during the reflow process in bumps with high ratio of bump diameter
to bump height, i.e. low bumps with large diameter. No failures have been found to be
related to these voids. Solder joint inspection after reflow can be done with X-ray to
monitor defects such as bridging, open circuits and voids.
16.3.3 Rework
In general, rework is not recommended. By rework we mean the process of removing the
chip from the substrate and replacing it with a new chip. If a chip is remo ved from the
substrate, most solder balls of the chip will be damaged. In that case it is recommended
not to re-use the chip again.

NXP Semiconductors TFA9890A
9.5 V boosted audio system with adaptive sound maximizer and
speaker protection
Device removal can be done when the substrate is heated until it is certain that all solder
joints are molten. The chip can then be carefully removed from the substrate without
damaging the tracks and solder lands on the substrate. Removing the device must be
done using plastic tweezers, because metal tweezers can damage the silicon. The
surface of the substrate should be carefully cleaned and all solder and flux residues
and/or underfill removed. When a new chip is placed on the substrate, use the flux
process instead of solder on th e solder land s. Ap ply flu x on th e bu mps at the chip side as
well as on the solder pads on the substrate. Place and align the new chip while viewing
with a microscope. To reflow the solder, use the solder profile shown in application note
AN10365 “Surface mount reflow soldering description”.
16.3.4 Cleaning
Cleaning can be done after reflow soldering.
