LM48410 LM48410 Low EMI, Filterless, 2.3W Stereo Class D Audio Power Amplifierwith National 3D Enhancement Literature Number: SNAS403D LM48410 Low EMI, Filterless, 2.3W Stereo Class D Audio Power Amplifier with National 3D Enhancement General Description Key Specifications The LM48410 is a single supply, high efficiency, 2.3W/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. A selectable spread spectrum modulation scheme suppresses RF emissions, further reducing the need for output filters. The LM48410 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 2.3W/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 LM48410 offers two logic selectable modulation schemes, fixed frequency mode, and an EMI reducing spread spectrum mode. The LM48410 features high efficiency compared with conventional Class AB amplifiers. When driving an 8 speaker from a 3.6V supply, the device operates with 85% efficiency at PO = 500mW/Ch. Four gain options are pin selectable through the G0 and G1 pins. The LM48410 also includes National's 3D audio enhancement that improves stereo sound quality. In devices where the left and right speakers are in close proximity, 3D enhancement affects channel specialization, widening the perceived soundstage. 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 controls maximizes power savings in mixed mono/stereo applications.

Most of the power loss associated with the output stage is due to the IR loss of the MOSFET on-resistance, along with switching losses due to gate charge. GENERAL AMPLIFIER FUNCTION The LM48410 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 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. When an input signal is applied, the duty cycle (pulse width) of the LM48410 output's change. For increasing output voltage, the duty cycle of one side of each output increases, while the duty cycle of the other side of each output decreases. For decreasing output voltages, the converse occurs. The difference between the two pulse widths yields the differential output voltage. SHUTDOWN FUNCTION The LM48410 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, reducing supply current to 0.1A. It is best to switch between ground and VDD for minimum current consumption while in shutdown. The LM48410 may be disabled with shutdown voltages in between GND and VDD, the idle current will be greater than the typical 0.1A value. The LM48410 shutdown inputs have internal pulldown resistors. The purpose of these resistors is to eliminate any unwanted state changes when SD is floating. 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. FIXED FREQUENCY MODE The LM48410 features two modulations schemes, a fixed frequency mode and a spread spectrum mode. Select the fixed frequency mode by setting SS/FF = GND. In fixed frequency mode, the amplifier outputs switch at a constant 300kHz. In fixed frequency mode, the output spectrum consists of the fundamental and its associated harmonics (see Typical Performance Characteristics). PROPER SELECTION OF EXTERNAL COMPONENTS Power Supply Bypassing/Filtering Proper power supply bypassing is important 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 LM48410 supply pins. A 1F capacitor is recommended. SPREAD SPECTRUM The logic selectable spread spectrum mode eliminates the need for output filters, ferrite beads or chokes. In spread spectrum mode, the switching frequency varies randomly by 30% about a 300kHz center frequency, reducing the wideband spectral content and improving EMI emissions radiated by the speaker and associated cables and traces. A fixed frequency class D exhibits large amounts of spectral energy at multiples of the switching frequency. The spread spectrum architecture of the LM48410 spreads the same energy over a larger bandwidth (See Typical Performance Characteristics). The cycle-to-cycle variation of the switching period does not affect the audio reproduction, efficiency, or PSRR. Set SS/ FF = VDD for spread spectrum mode. Input Capacitor Slection 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 LM48410. The input capacitors create a highpass filter with the input resistance RIN. The -3dB point of the high-pass filter is found using Equation 1 below. f = 1 / 2RINCIN (1) The values for RIN can be found in the Electrical Characteristics 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 LM48410 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. 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 swings. The LM48410 features two fully differential speaker 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 LM48410 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. National 3D Enhancement The LM48410 features National's 3D enhancement effect that widens the perceived soundstage of a stereo audio signal. The 3D enhancement increases the apparent stereo channel separation, improving audio reproduction whenever the left and right speakers are too close to one another. An external RC network shown in Figure 1 is required to enable the 3D effect. Because the LM48410 is a fully differential POWER DISSIPATION AND EFFICIENCY The major benefit of a Class D amplifier is increased efficiency versus a Class AB. The efficiency of the LM48410 is attributed to the region of operation of the transistors in the output stage. The Class D output stage acts as current steering switches, 11 www.national.com LM48410 Application Information LM48410 amplifier, there are two separate RC networks, one for each stereo input pair (INL+ and INR+, and INL- and INR-). Set 3DEN high to enable the 3D effect. Set 3DEN low to disable the 3D effect. The 3D RC network acts as a high pass filter. The amount of the 3D effect is set by the R3D resistor. Decreasing the value of R3D increases the 3D effect. The C3D capacitor sets the frequency at which the 3D effect occurs. Increasing the value of C3D decreases the low frequency cutoff point, extending the 3D effect over a wider bandwidth. The low frequency cutoff point is given by: nected between 3DL+ and 3DR+. 3DL- and 3DR- can be left unconnected. AUDIO AMPLIFIER GAIN SETTING The LM48410 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. TABLE 1. LOGIC INPUT GAIN G1 G0 V/V f3D(-3dB) = 1 / 2(R3D)(C3D) 0 0 2 6 0 1 4 12 Enabling the 3D effect increase the gain by a factor of (1 +20k/R3D). Setting R3D to 20k results in a gain increase of 6dB whenever the 3D effect is enabled. In fully differential configuration, the component values of the two RC networks must be identical. Any component variations can affect the sound quality of the 3D effect. In single-ended configuration, only the RC network of the input pairs being driven by the audio source needs to be connected. For instance, if audio is applied to INR+ and INL+, then a 3D network must be con- 1 0 8 18 1 1 16 24 SINGLE-ENDED AUDIO AMPLIFIER CONFIGURATION The LM48410 is compatible with single-ended sources. When configured for single-ended inputs, input capacitors must be used to block and DC component at the input of the device. Figure 2 shows the typical single-ended applications circuit. 300106a1 FIGURE 2. Single-Ended Circuit Diagram www.national.com dB 12 EXPOSED-DAP MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS The LM48410 LLP package features an exposed thermal pad on its underside (DAP, or die attach paddle). The exposed DAP lowers the package's thermal resistance by providing a direct heat conduction path from the die to the printed circuit board. Connect the exposed thermal pad to GND though a large pad and multiple vias to a GND plane on the bottom of the PCB. 13 www.national.com LM48410 point, 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 LM48410 and the speaker increases, the amount of EMI radiation increases due to the output wires or traces acting as antennas. An antenna becomes a more efficient radiator with lenth. Ferrite chip inductors places close to the LM48410 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 LM48410 and the load results in lower output power and decreased efficiency. Higher trace resistance between the supply and the LM48410 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. In addition to reducing trace resistance, the 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.
