LM4861
1.1W Audio Power Amplifier with Shutdown Mode
General Description
The LM4861 is a bridge-connected audio power amplifier
capable of delivering 1.1W of continuous average power to
an 8load with 1% THD+N using a 5V power supply.
Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to
provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of
external components using surface mount packaging. Since
the LM4861 does not require output coupling capacitors,
bootstrap capacitors, or snubber networks, it is optimally
suited for low-power portable systems.
The LM4861 features an externally controlled, low-power
consumption shutdown mode, as well as an internal thermal
shutdown protection mechanism.
The unity-gain stable LM4861 can be configured by external
gain-setting resistors for differential gains of up to 10 without
the use of external compensation components. Higher gains
may be achieved with suitable compensation.

Application Information
BRIDGE CONFIGURATION EXPLANATION
As shown in Figure 1 , the LM4861 has two operational
amplifiers internally, allowing for a few different amplifier
configurations. The first amplifier’s gain is externally config-
urable, while the second amplifier is internally fixed in a
unity-gain, inverting configuration. The closed-loop gain of
the first amplifier is set by selecting the ratio of R
f
to R
i
while
the second amplifiers gain is fixed by the two internal 40k
resistors. Figure 1 shows that the output of amplifier one
serves as the input to amplifier two which results in both
amplifiers producing signals identical in magnitude, but out
of phase 180˚. Consequently, the differential gain for the IC
is:
A
vd
=2*(R
f
/R
i
)
By driving the load differentially through outputs V
O1
and
V
O2
, an amplifier configuration commonly referred to as
“bridged mode” is established. Bridged mode operation is
different from the classical single-ended amplifier configura-
tion where one side of its load is connected to ground.
A bridge amplifier design has a few distinct advantages over
the single-ended configuration, as it provides differential
drive to the load, thus doubling output swing for a specified
supply voltage. Consequently, four times the output power is
possible as compared to a single-ended amplifier under the
same conditions. This increase in attainable output power
assumes that the amplifier is not current limited or clipped. In
order to choose an amplifiers closed-loop gain without caus-
ing excessive clipping which will damage high frequency
transducers used in loudspeaker systems, please refer to
the Audio Power Amplifier Design section.
A bridge configuration, such as the one used in Boomer
Audio Power Amplifiers, also creates a second advantage
over single-ended amplifiers. Since the differential outputs,
V
O1
and V
O2
, are biased at half-supply, no net DC voltage
exists across the load. This eliminates the need for an output
coupling capacitor which is required in a single supply,
single-ended amplifier configuration. Without an output cou-
pling capacitor in a single supply, single-ended amplifier, the
half-supply bias across the load would result in both in-
creased internal IC power dissipation and also permanent
loudspeaker damage. An output coupling capacitor forms a
high pass filter with the load requiring that a large value such
as 470µF be used with an 8load to preserve low frequency
response. This combination does not produce a flat re-
sponse down to 20Hz, but does offer a compromise between
printed circuit board size and system cost, versus low fre-
quency response.
POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a
successful amplifier, whether the amplifier is bridged or
single-ended. A direct consequence of the increased power
delivered to the load by a bridge amplifier is an increase in
internal power dissipation. Equation 1 states the maximum
power dissipation point for a bridge amplifier operating at a
given supply voltage and driving a specified output load.

Since the LM4861 has two operational amplifiers in one
package, the maximum internal power dissipation is 4 times
that of a single-ended amplifier. Even with this substantial
increase in power dissipation, the LM4861 does not require
heatsinking. From Equation 1, assuming a 5V power supply
and an 8load, the maximum power dissipation point is
625mW.The maximum power dissipation point obtained from
Equation 1 must not be greater than the power dissipation
that results from Equation 2:

For the LM4861 surface mount package, θ

= 140˚C/W and
T
JMAX
= 150˚C. Depending on the ambient temperature, T
A
,
of the system surroundings, Equation 2 can be used to find
the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC
packaging. If the result of Equation 1 is greater than that of
Equation 2, then either the supply voltage must be de-
creased or the load impedance increased. For the typical
application of a 5V power supply, with an 8load, the
maximum ambient temperature possible without violating the
maximum junction temperature is approximately 62.5˚C pro-
vided that device operation is around the maximum power
dissipation point. Power dissipation is a function of output
power and thus, if typical operation is not around the maxi-
mum power dissipation point, the ambient temperature can
be increased. Refer to the Typical Performance Charac-
teristics curves for power dissipation information for lower
output powers.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
As with any power amplifier, proper supply bypassing is
critical for low noise performance and high power supply
rejection. The capacitor location on both the bypass and
power supply pins should be as close to the device as
possible. As displayed in the Typical Performance Charac-
teristics section, the effect of a larger half supply bypass
capacitor is improved low frequency THD+N due to in-
creased half-supply stability. Typical applications employ a
5V regulator with 10µF and a 0.1µF bypass capacitors which
aid in supply stability, but do not eliminate the need for
bypassing the supply nodes of the LM4861. The selection of
bypass capacitors, especially C
B
, is thus dependant upon
desired low frequency THD+N, system cost, and size con-
straints.
SHUTDOWN FUNCTION
In order to reduce power consumption while not in use, the
LM4861 contains a shutdown pin to externally turn off the
amplifiers bias circuitry. The shutdown feature turns the
amplifier off when a logic high is placed on the shutdown pin.
Upon going into shutdown, the output is immediately discon-
nected from the speaker. A typical quiescent current of 0.6µA
results when the supply voltage is applied to the shutdown
pin. In many applications, a microcontroller or microproces-
sor output is used to control the shutdown circuitry which
provides a quick, smooth transition into shutdown. Another
solution is to use a single-pole, single-throw switch that
when closed, is connected to ground and enables the am-
plifier. If the switch is open, then a soft pull-up resistor of
47kwill disable the LM4861. There are no soft pull-down
resistors inside the LM4861, so a definite shutdown pin
voltage must be applied externally, or the internal logic gate
will be left floating which could disable the amplifier unex-
pectedly.
HIGHER GAIN AUDIO AMPLIFIER
The LM4861 is unity-gain stable and requires no external
components besides gain-setting resistors, an input coupling
capacitor, and proper supply bypassing in the typical appli-
cation. However, if a closed-loop differential gain of greater
than 10 is required, a feedback capacitor may be needed, as
shown in Figure 2, to bandwidth limit the amplifier. This
feedback capacitor creates a low pass filter that eliminates

possible high frequency oscillations. Care should be taken
when calculating the −3dB frequency in that an incorrect
combination of R
f
and C
f
will cause rolloff before 20kHz. A
typical combination of feedback resistor and capacitor that
will not produce audio band high frequency rolloff is R
f
=
100kand C
f
= 5pF. These components result in a −3dB
point of approximately 320kHz. Once the differential gain of
the amplifier has been calculated, a choice of R
f
will result,
and C
f
can then be calculated from the formula stated in the
External Components Description section.
VOICE-BAND AUDIO AMPLIFIER
Many applications, such as telephony, only require a voice-
band frequency response. Such an application usually re-
quires a flat frequency response from 300Hz to 3.5kHz. By
adjusting the component values of Figure 2, this common
application requirement can be implemented. The combina-
tion of R
i
and C
i
form a highpass filter while R
f
and C
f
form a
lowpass filter. Using the typical voice-band frequency range,
with a passband differential gain of approximately 100, the
following values of R
i
,C
i
,R
f
, and C
f
follow from the equa-
tions stated in the External Components Description sec-
tion.
R

f
= 510k ,C
i
= 0.22µF, and C

Five times away from a −3dB point is 0.17dB down from the
flatband response. With this selection of components, the
resulting −3dB points, f
L
and f
H
, are 72Hz and 20kHz, re-
spectively, resulting in a flatband frequency response of
better than ±0.25dB with a rolloff of 6dB/octave outside of
the passband. If a steeper rolloff is required, other common
bandpass filtering techniques can be used to achieve higher
order filters.
SINGLE-ENDED AUDIO AMPLIFIER
Although the typical application for the LM4861 is a bridged
monoaural amp, it can also be used to drive a load single-
endedly in applications, such as PC cards, which require that
one side of the load is tied to ground. Figure 3 shows a
common single-ended application, where V
O1
is used to
drive the speaker. This output is coupled through a 470µF
capacitor, which blocks the half-supply DC bias that exists in
all single-supply amplifier configurations. This capacitor,
designated C
O
in Figure 3, in conjunction with R
L
, forms a
highpass filter. The −3dB point of this high pass filter is
1/(2πR
L
C
O
), so care should be taken to make sure that the
product of R
L
and C
O
is large enough to pass low frequen-
cies to the load. When driving an 8load, and if a full audio
spectrum reproduction is required, C
O
should be at least
470µF. V
O2
, the output that is not used, is connected through
a 0.1 µF capacitor to a 2kload to prevent instability. While
such an instability will not affect the waveform of V
O1
,itis
good design practice to load the second output.
AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER DESIGN
Design a 1W / 8Audio Amplifier
Given:
Power Output 1 Wrms
Load Impedance 8
Input Level 1 Vrms
Input Impedance 20 k
Bandwidth 100 Hz–20 kHz ±0.25 dB
A designer must first determine the needed supply rail to
obtain the specified output power. By extrapolating from the
Output Power vs Supply Voltage graph in the Typical Per-
formance Characteristics section, the supply rail can be
easily found. A second way to determine the minimum sup-
ply rail is to calculate the required V
opeak
using Equation 3
and add the dropout voltage. Using this method, the mini-
mum supply voltage would be (V
opeak
+V
OD
, where V
OD
is
typically 0.6V.
(3)
For 1W of output power into an 8load, the required V
opeak
is 4.0V. A minumum supply rail of 4.6V results from adding
V
opeak
and V
od
. But 4.6V is not a standard voltage that exists
in many applications and for this reason, a supply rail of 5V
is designated. Extra supply voltage creates dynamic head-
room that allows the LM4861 to reproduce peaks in excess
of 1Wwithout clipping the signal. 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 differential gain can be determined from Equa-
tion 4.

From equation 4, the minimum A

is 2.83: A

Since the desired input impedance was 20k, and with a A
vd
of 3, a ratio of 1:1.5 of R
f
to R
i
results in an allocation of R
i
=
20k,R
f
= 30k. 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. This fact results in a low and
high frequency pole of 20Hz and 100kHz respectively. As
stated in the External Components section, R
i
in conjunc-
tion with C
i
create a highpass filter.
C
i
1/(2π*20k*20Hz) = 0.397µF; use 0.39µF.
The high frequency pole is determined by the product of the
desired high frequency pole, f
H
, and the differential gain, A
vd
.
With a A
vd
= 2 and f
H
= 100kHz, the resulting GBWP =
100kHz which is much smaller than the LM4861 GBWP of
4MHz. This figure displays that if a designer has a need to
design an amplifier with a higher differential gain, the
LM4861 can still be used without running into bandwidth
problems.
