LM4674 LM4674 Filterless 2.5W Stereo Class D Audio Power Amplifier Literature Number: SNAS344D LM4674 Filterless 2.5W Stereo Class D Audio Power Amplifier General Description Key Specifications The LM4674 is a single supply, high efficiency, 2.5W/channel, filterless switching audio amplifier. A low noise PWM architecture eliminates the output filter, reducing external component count, board area consumption, system cost, and simplifying design. The LM4674 is designed to meet the demands of mobile phones and other portable communication devices. Operating from a single 5V supply, the device is capable of delivering 2.5W/channel of continuous output power to a 4 load with less than 10% THD+N. Flexible power supply requirements allow operation from 2.4V to 5.5V. The LM4674 features high efficiency compared to conventional Class AB amplifiers. When driving an 8 speaker from a 3.6V supply, the device features 85% efficiency at PO = 500mW. Four gain options are pin selectable through the G0 and G1 pins. Output short circuit protection prevents the device from being damaged during fault conditions. Superior click and pop suppression eliminates audible transients on power-up/down and during shutdown. Independent left/right shutdown control maximizes power savings in mixed mono/stereo applications.

To minimize shutdown current, SD_ should be driven to GND or left floating. If SD_ is not driven to GND or floating, an increase in shutdown supply current will be noticed. GENERAL AMPLIFIER FUNCTION The LM4674 stereo Class D audio power amplifier features a filterless modulation scheme that reduces external component count, conserving board space and reducing system cost. The outputs of the device transition from VDD to GND with a 300kHz switching frequency. With no signal applied, the outputs for each channel switch with a 50% duty cycle, in phase, causing the two outputs to cancel. This cancellation results in no net voltage across the speaker, thus there is no current to the load in the idle state. With the input signal applied, the duty cycle (pulse width) of the LM4674 outputs changes. For increasing output voltage, the duty cycle of the A output increases, while the duty cycle of the B output decreases for each channel. For decreasing output voltages, the converse occurs. The difference between the two pulse widths yields the differential output voltage. SINGLE-ENDED AUDIO AMPLIFIER CONFIGURATION The LM4674 is compatible with single-ended sources. When configured for single-ended inputs, input capacitors must be used to block any DC component at the input of the device. Figure 3 shows the typical single-ended applications circuit. AUDIO AMPLIFIER POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING/ FILTERING Proper power supply bypassing is critical for low noise performance and high PSRR. Place the supply bypass capacitor as close to the device as possible. Typical applications employ a voltage regulator with 10F and 0.1F bypass capacitors that increase supply stability. These capacitors do not eliminate the need for bypassing of the LM4674 supply pins. A 1F capacitor is recommended. DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFIER EXPLANATION As logic supplies continue to shrink, system designers are increasingly turning to differential analog signal handling to preserve signal to noise ratios with restricted voltage signs. The LM4674 features two fully differential amplifiers. A differential amplifier amplifies the difference between the two input signals. Traditional audio power amplifiers have typically offered only single-ended inputs resulting in a 6dB reduction of SNR relative to differential inputs. The LM4674 also offers the possibility of DC input coupling which eliminates the input coupling capacitors. A major benefit of the fully differential amplifier is the improved common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) over single ended input amplifiers. The increased CMRR of the differential amplifier reduces sensitivity to ground offset related noise injection, especially important in noisy systems. AUDIO AMPLIFIER INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION Input capacitors may be required for some applications, or when the audio source is single-ended. Input capacitors block the DC component of the audio signal, eliminating any conflict between the DC component of the audio source and the bias voltage of the LM4674. The input capacitors create a highpass filter with the input resistance Ri. The -3dB point of the high pass filter is found using Equation 1 below. f = 1 / 2RiCi (1) The values for Ri can be found in the EC table for each gain setting. The input capacitors can also be used to remove low frequency content from the audio signal. Small speakers cannot reproduce, and may even be damaged by low frequencies. High pass filtering the audio signal helps protect the speakers. When the LM4674 is using a single-ended source, power supply noise on the ground is seen as an input signal. Setting the high-pass filter point above the power supply noise frequencies, 217 Hz in a GSM phone, for example, filters out the noise such that it is not amplified and heard on the output. Capacitors with a tolerance of 10% or better are recommended for impedance matching and improved CMRR and PSRR. POWER DISSIPATION AND EFFICIENCY The major benefit of a Class D amplifier is increased efficiency versus a class AB amplifier. The efficiency of the LM4674 is attributed to the region of operation of the transistors in the output stage. The Class D output stage acts as current steering switches, consuming negligible amounts of power compared to their Class AB counterparts. Most of the power loss associated with the output stage is due to the IR loss of the MOSFET on-resistance (RDS(ON)), along with switching losses due to gate charge. SHUTDOWN FUNCTION The LM4674 features independent left and right channel shutdown controls, allowing each channel to be disabled independently. SDR controls the right channel, while SDL controls the left channel. Driving either low disables the corresponding channel. It is best to switch between ground and VDD for minimum current consumption while in shutdown. The LM4674 may be disabled with shutdown voltages in between GND and VDD, the idle current will be greater than the typical 0.03A value. For logic levels between GND and VDD bypass SD_ with a 0.1F capacitor. The LM4674 shutdown inputs have internal pulldown resistors. The purpose of these resistors is to eliminate any un- AUDIO AMPLIFIER GAIN SETTING The LM4674 features four internally configured gain settings. The device gain is selected through the two logic inputs, G0 and G1. The gain settings are as shown in the following table. LOGIC INPUT 13 GAIN G1 G0 V/V dB 0 0 2 6 0 1 4 12 1 0 8 18 1 1 16 24 www.national.com LM4674 Application Information LM4674 use of power planes creates parasitic capacitors that help to filter the power supply line. The inductive nature of the transducer load can also result in overshoot on one or both edges, clamped by the parasitic diodes to GND and VDD in each case. From an EMI standpoint, this is an aggressive waveform that can radiate or conduct to other components in the system and cause interference. In is essential to keep the power and output traces short and well shielded if possible. Use of ground planes beads and micros-strip layout techniques are all useful in preventing unwanted interference. As the distance from the LM4674 and the speaker increases, the amount of EMI radiation increases due to the output wires or traces acting as antennas become more efficient with length. Ferrite chip inductors places close to the LM4674 outputs may be needed to reduce EMI radiation. PCB LAYOUT GUIDELINES As output power increases, interconnect resistance (PCB traces and wires) between the amplifier, load and power supply create a voltage drop. The voltage loss due to the traces between the LM4674 and the load results in lower output power and decreased efficiency. Higher trace resistance between the supply and the LM4674 has the same effect as a poorly regulated supply, increasing ripple on the supply line, and reducing peak output power. The effects of residual trace resistance increases as output current increases due to higher output power, decreased load impedance or both. To maintain the highest output voltage swing and corresponding peak output power, the PCB traces that connect the output pins to the load and the supply pins to the power supply should be as wide as possible to minimize trace resistance. The use of power and ground planes will give the best THD +N performance.
