SANYO : MFP20
Overview
The LA4571MB is a low-voltage, stereo headphone am-
plifier incorporating both tape head preamplif iers and head-
phone power amplifiers in a single chip, making it ideal for
portable battery-po wered equipment. It features logic-level
controlled output signal muting, excellent noise character-
istics and easy interconnection with signal sources, such as
an AM/FM tuner IC.
The LA4571MB requires no input or output coupling ca-
pacitors. A buffer amplifier with 10 output impedance
reduces the size of the virtual-earth decoupling capacitor.
The preamplifier and power amplifier inputs only require
the addition of an external capacitor to provide high-fre-
quency noise filtering.
The LA4571MB operates from a 3V supply and is avail-
able in 20-pin MFPs.
Features
• Stereo tape head preamplifiers and headphone power
amplifiers on chip.
• Output signal muting.
• Low noise.
• 8 speaker driver.
• 3V supply.
• 20-pin MFP.

Tape Head Preamplifier
Tape head signal source are connected to the non-
inverting input of the op-amp, negative feedback pream-
plifier.
When PRE MUTE is open, the preamplifier output is
connected to SW OUT1, and when PRE MUTE is HIGH
(VCC ±0.2V at 60µA input current), SW OUT1 is open.
This can be used to switch, or mute, the preamplifier
output.
Functional Decription (channl 1 only)
The internal circuit of the PRE MUTE pin is shown in
the following figure.
The output pins, PRE OUT1 and SW OUT1, can both
drive a 10k load resistance.
The preamplifier input pin, IN1, the negative feedback
input pin, NF1, and the output pin, PRE OUT, are
biased at 1.8V.
Power Amplifier
The power amplifier stage comprises an amplifier for
each channel and a common amplifier. The power
amplifier outputs are connected internally by 60
resistors to prevent oscillation, as shown in the follow-
ing figure.
When POWER MUTE is LOW (less than 0.3V at
2.5µA input current), the power amplifier output signal
is muted. The power amplifier mute release time is set
by an external capacitor.

LA4571MB
No.3534–8/9
The internal circuit of the POWER MUTE pin is shown
in the following figure.
The power amplifier input pin, POWER IN1, is biased at
1.8V, and the output pins at 1.2V
Design Notes
The preamplifier inputs should be connected to VREF
through a 2.2k resistor if there is no tape head input
signal source.
The mute release time capacitor of the power amplifier
should be between 1.0 and 4.7µF. For VCC=3.0V and
C=2.2µF, the mute release time is 0.7s.
The ripple rejection ratio setting capacitor should be
between 2.2 and 33µF. For 2.2µF, the ripple rejection
ratio is 35dB, and for 22µF, it is 55dB.
When the output amplifier turns OFF, the protection
circuit shown in the following figure detects the falling
supply voltage and then mutes the power amplifier to
protect the device.
Reference Voltage
The input to the voltage reference amplifier is a
voltage divided level from the supply voltage ripple
filter. The referecne voltage is given by 0.6 × VCC.
The supply voltage ripple filter requires the connection
of an external filter capacitor to RF REF. A large
capacitance results in a high ripple rejection ratio.
Noise filtering is achieved by the addition of a single
capacitor to VREF. Since the reference voltage ampli-
fier has a buffered output, this capacitor can be as low
as 1µF.
