LM4895 1 Watt Fully Differential Audio Power Amplifier With Shutdown Select and Fixed 6dB Gain General Description Key Specifications The LM4895 is a fully differential audio power amplifier primarily designed for demanding applications in mobile phones and other portable communication device applications. It is capable of delivering 1 watt of continuous average power to an 8 load with less than 1% distortion (THD+N) from a 5VDC power supply. Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of external components. The LM4895 does not require output coupling capacitors or bootstrap capacitors, and therefore is ideally suited for mobile phone and other low voltage applications where minimal power consumption is a primary requirement. The LM4895 features a low-power consumption shutdown mode. To facilitate this, Shutdown may be enabled by either logic high or low depending on mode selection. Driving the shutdown mode pin either high or low enables the shutdown select pin to be driven in a likewise manner to enable Shutdown. Additionally, the LM4895 features an internal thermal shutdown protection mechanism. The LM4895 contains advanced pop & click circuitry which eliminates noises which would otherwise occur during turn-on and turn-off transitions. The LM4895 has an internally fixed gain of 6dB. j Improved PSRR at 217Hz 80dB j Power Output at 5.0V & 1% THD 1.0W(typ.) j Power Output at 3.3V & 1% THD 400mW(typ.) j Shutdown Current 0.1A(typ.)

Internally this is accomplished by two circuits: a differential amplifier and a common mode feedback amplifier that adjusts the output voltages so that the average value remains VDD/2. The LM4895 features precisely matched internal gain-setting resistors, thus eliminating the need for external resistors and fixing the differential gain at AVD = 6dB. Best thermal performance is achieved with the largest practical copper heat sink area. If the heatsink and amplifier share the same PCB layer, a nominal 2.5in2 (min) area is necessary for 5V operation with a 4 load. Heatsink areas not placed on the same PCB layer as the LM4895 should be 5in2 (min) for the same supply voltage and load resistance. The last two area recommendations apply for 25C ambient temperature. In all circumstances and conditions, the junction temperature must be held below 150C to prevent activating the LM4895's thermal shutdown protection. The LM4895's power de-rating curve in the Typical Performance Characteristics shows the maximum power dissipation versus temperature. Example PCB layouts for the exposedDAP TSSOP and LLP packages are shown in the Demonstration Board Layout section. Further detailed and specific information concerning PCB layout, fabrication, and mounting an LLP package is available from National Semiconductor's package Engineering Group under application note AN-1187. A differential amplifier works in a manner where the difference between the two input signals is amplified. In most applications, this would require input signals that are 180 out of phase with each other. The LM4895 provides what is known as a 'bridged mode' output (bridge-tied-load, BTL). This results in output signals at Vo1 and Vo2 that are 180 out of phase with respect to each other. Bridged mode operation is different from the single-ended amplifier configuration that connects the load between the amplifier output and ground. A bridged amplifier design has distinct advantages over the single-ended configuration: it provides differential drive to the load, thus doubling maximum possible output swing for a specific supply voltage. Four times the output power is possible compared with a single-ended amplifier under the same conditions. This increase in attainable output power assumes that the amplifier is not current limited or clipped. PCB LAYOUT AND SUPPLY REGULATION CONSIDERATIONS FOR DRIVING 3 AND 4 LOADS Power dissipated by a load is a function of the voltage swing across the load and the load's impedance. As load impedance decreases, load dissipation becomes increasingly dependent on the interconnect (PCB trace and wire) resistance between the amplifier output pins and the load's connections. Residual trace resistance causes a voltage drop, which results in power dissipated in the trace and not in the load as desired. For example, 0.1 trace resistance reduces the output power dissipated by a 4 load from 1.4W to 1.37W. This problem of decreased load dissipation is exacerbated as load impedance decreases. Therefore, to maintain the highest load dissipation and widest output voltage swing, PCB traces that connect the output pins to a load must be as wide as possible. A bridged configuration, such as the one used in the LM4895, also creates a second advantage over singleended amplifiers. Since the differential outputs, Vo1 and Vo2, are biased at half-supply, no net DC voltage exists across the load. BTL configuration eliminates the output coupling capacitor required in single-supply, single-ended amplifier configurations. If an output coupling capacitor is not used in a single-ended output configuration, the half-supply bias across the load would result in both increased internal IC power dissipation as well as permanent loudspeaker damage. Further advantages of bridged mode operation specific to fully differential amplifiers like the LM4895 include increased power supply rejection ratio, common-mode noise reduction, and click and pop reduction. Poor power supply regulation adversely affects maximum output power. A poorly regulated supply's output voltage decreases with increasing load current. Reduced supply voltage causes decreased headroom, output signal clipping, and reduced output power. Even with tightly regulated supplies, trace resistance creates the same effects as poor sup-ply regulation. Therefore, making the power supply traces as wide as possible helps maintain full output voltage swing. EXPOSED-DAP PACKAGE PCB MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS The LM4895's exposed-DAP (die attach paddle) package (LD) provide a low thermal resistance between the die and the PCB to which the part is mounted and soldered. This allows rapid heat transfer from the die to the surrounding PCB copper traces, ground plane and, finally, surrounding air. The result is a low voltage audio power amplifier that produces 1.4W at 1% THD with a 4 load. This high power is achieved through careful consideration of necessary thermal design. Failing to optimize thermal design may compromise the LM4895's high power performance and activate unwanted, though necessary, thermal shutdown protection. The LD package must have its DAP soldered to a copper pad on the PCB. The DAP's PCB copper pad is connected to a large plane of continuous unbroken copper. This plane forms a thermal mass and heat sink and radiation area. Place the heat sink area on either outside plane in the case of a two-sided PCB, or on an inner layer of a board with more POWER DISSIPATION Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a successful amplifer, whether the amplifier is bridged or single-ended. Equation 2 states the maximum power dissipation point for a single-ended amplifier operating at a given supply voltage and driving a specified output load. PDMAX=(VDD)2/(22RL) Single-Ended 11 (1) www.national.com LM4895 than two layers. Connect the DAP copper pad to the inner layer or backside copper heat sink area with 4 (2x2) vias. The via diameter should be 0.012in - 0.013in with a 0.050in pitch. Ensure efficient thermal conductivity by platingthrough and solder-filling the vias. Application Information LM4895 Application Information bypass and power supply pins should be as close to the device as possible. A larger half-supply bypass capacitor improves PSRR because it increases half-supply stability. Typical applications employ a 5V regulator with 10F and 0.1F bypass capacitors that increase supply stability. This, however, does not eliminate the need for bypassing the supply nodes of the LM4895. Although the LM4895 will operate without the bypass capacitor CB, although the PSRR may decrease. A 1F capacitor is recommended for CB. This value maximizes PSRR performance. Lesser values may be used, but PSRR decreases at frequencies below 1kHz. The issue of CB selection is thus dependant upon desired PSRR and click and pop performance. (Continued) However, a direct consequence of the increased power delivered to the load by a bridge amplifier is an increase in internal power dissipation versus a single-ended amplifier operating at the same conditions. PDMAX = 4*(VDD)2/(22RL) Bridge Mode (2) Since the LM4895 has bridged outputs, the maximum internal power dissipation is 4 times that of a single-ended amplifier. Even with this substantial increase in power dissipation, the LM4895 does not require additional heatsinking under most operating conditions and output loading. From Equation 3, assuming a 5V power supply and an 8 load, the maximum power dissipation point is 625mW. The maximum power dissipation point obtained from Equation 3 must not be greater than the power dissipation results from Equation 4: PDMAX = (TJMAX - TA)/JA SHUTDOWN FUNCTION In order to reduce power consumption while not in use, the LM4895 contains shutdown circuitry that is used to turn off the amplifier's bias circuitry. In addition, the LM4895 contains a Shutdown Mode pin, allowing the designer to designate whether the part will be driven into shutdown with a high level logic signal or a low level logic signal. This allows the designer maximum flexibility in device use, as the Shutdown Mode pin may simply be tied permanently to either VDD or GND to set the LM4895 as either a 'shutdown-high' device or a 'shutdown-low' device, respectively. The device may then be placed into shutdown mode by toggling the Shutdown Select pin to the same state as the Shutdown Mode pin. For simplicity's sake, this is called 'shutdown same', as the LM4895 enters shutdown mode whenever the two pins are in the same logic state. The trigger point for either shutdown high or shutdown low is shown as a typical value in the Supply Current vs Shutdown Voltage graphs in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. It is best to switch between ground and supply for maximum performance. While the device may be disabled with shutdown voltages in between ground and supply, the idle current may be greater than the typical value of 0.1A. In either case, the shutdown pin should be tied to a definite voltage to avoid unwanted state changes. (3) The LM4895's JA in an MUA10A package is 190C/W. Depending on the ambient temperature, TA, of the system surroundings, Equation 4 can be used to find the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC packaging. If the result of Equation 3 is greater than that of Equation 4, then either the supply voltage must be decreased, the load impedance increased, the ambient temperature reduced, or the JA reduced with heatsinking. In many cases, larger traces near the output, VDD, and GND pins can be used to lower the JA. The larger areas of copper provide a form of heatsinking allowing higher power dissipation. For the typical application of a 5V power supply, with an 8 load, the maximum ambient temperature possible without violating the maximum junction temperature is approximately 30C provided that device operation is around the maximum power dissipation point. Recall that internal power dissipation is a function of output power. If typical operation is not around the maximum power dissipation point, the LM4895 can operate at higher ambient temperatures. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics curves for power dissipation information. In many applications, a microcontroller or microprocessor output is used to control the shutdown circuitry, which provides a quick, smooth transition to shutdown. Another solution is to use a single-throw switch in conjunction with an external pull-up resistor (or pull-down, depending on shutdown high or low application). This scheme guarantees that the shutdown pin will not float, thus preventing unwanted state changes.
