General Description
The CS35L01 and the CS35L03 are 3.0W high efficiency Hybrid Class-D audio amplifiers with low idle current
consumption.
The CS35L01/03 features an advanced closed-loop architecture to provide 0.02% THD+N at 1 W and -87 dB
PSRR at 217 Hz.
A flexible Hybrid Class-D output stage offers four
modes of operation: Standard Class-D (SD) mode offers full audio bandwidth and high audio performance;
Hybrid Class-D (HD) mode offers a substantial reduction in idle power consumption with an integrated ClassH controller; Reduced Frequency Class-D (FSD) mode
reduces the output switching frequency, producing lower electromagnetic interference (EMI); and Reduced
Frequency Hybrid Class-D (FHD) mode produces both
the lower idle power consumption of HD mode and the
reduced EMI benefits of FSD mode.
Requiring minimal external components and PCB
space, the CS35L01 and CS35L03 are available in a
1.2 mm x 1.2 mm, 9-ball WLCSP package in Commercial grade (-10°C to +70°C). Please see“Ordering
Information” on page 33for package options and gain
configurations.

5. APPLICATIONS
5.1MODE Descriptions
The CS35L01/03 devices can be operated in one of four operating modes, determined by the MODE pin
and the LFILT+ pin. The four modes of operation are Standard Class-D operation (SD), Reduced Frequency
Standard Class-D operation (FSD), Hybrid Class-D operation (HD), and Reduced Frequency Hybrid ClassD operation (FHD). Each of these modes can be leveraged to optimize different performance criteria in an
array of applications.

Table 1. LFILT+ and MODE Operation Configurations
5.1.1Standard Class-D Modes of Operation
5.1.1.1SD Mode
Standard Class-D (SD) mode supports full audio bandwidth with very good SNR and THD+N performance. This mode of operation is characterized by a traditional closed loop, analog modulated ClassD amplifier. With an output switching frequency of 192 kHz, this mode ensures flat frequency response
across the entire audio frequency range.
5.1.1.2FSD Mode
The Reduced Frequency Class-D (FSD) mode provides competitive audio performance and a reduction
in radiated emissions by decreasing the switching frequency of the output devices to 76 kHz. This reduction in switching frequency reduces the high-frequency energy being created by the output switching
events. Idle channel noise is slightly higher in this mode of operation than SD mode, with the trade-off
being better EMI performance and power consumption.
Standard Class-D Mode
(SD)
Hybrid Class-D Mode
(HD)
5.1.2Hybrid Class-D Modes of Operation
Hybrid Class-D and Reduced Frequency Hybrid Class-D modes of operation allows the rail voltage for the
output devices to switch between a high voltage net and a low voltage net depending on the audio content
being amplified. This is explained in more detail in Section 5.1.2.1 and Section 5.1.2.2. Operation in these
modes requires that the voltage present on the VBATT pin be above the level listed as “VBATT Limit for
HD/FHD Mode (VB
and FHD modes of operation of the device will automatically be disabled and operation will be limited to
the SD mode of operation.

In both HD and FHD mode, the value of the capacitance connected to the LFILT+ pin must not exceed
4.7 F. If this value is greater than 4.7 F, it will prevent the rail voltage of the output devices from transitioning properly between VBATT and the internal LDO.
5.1.2.1HD Mode
Hybrid Class-D mode (HD) provides competitive analog performance with a substantial reduction in idle
power dissipation and radiation emissions. In this mode, the output switches at 192 kHz and a secondary
supply is derived from VBATT using an internal 1.0-VDC low drop-out linear regulator (LDO). When the
output signal is at a low amplitude, the Class-D output stage begins to switch from the lower rail voltage
created by the internal LDO. This not only decreases idle power consumption when output capacitors are
used, but also reduces electromagnetic emissions by reducing the amplitude of the square waves being
created at the output of the CS35L01/03 when operating at low amplitude or idle power.
5.1.2.2FHD Mode
The Reduced Frequency Hybrid Class-D (FHD) mode provides the best overall EMI performance and the
lowest power consumption with slightly decreased frequency response near the top frequency range of
the audio band, for high amplitude signals. In this mode of operation, the output switching frequency is
reduced to 76 kHz during high amplitude transients on the output. The threshold at which this transition
from 192-kHz to 76-kHz switching rate occurs is given as the Input Level Threshold for FHD Operation in
“Electrical Characteristics - FHD Mode” on page 13. Combined with the lower amplitude switching offered
by the Hybrid design, this reduction in switching energy dramatically reduces the emissions levels of the
output stage and its associated components.
5.2Reducing the Gain with External Series Resistors
If necessary, it is possible to decrease the gain of the CS35L01/03 by adding series resistors to the audio
input signal as is shown in Figure 4 below.
If input resistors are added, the new gain of the amplifier can be determined by the following equation:
Where:

5.3Output Filtering with the CS35L01/03
The CS35L01/03 is specifically designed to minimize radiated electromagnetic interference (EMI) signals.
All of the devices are capable of meeting all stated data sheet performance numbers with no special filtering
required. Additionally, the device has shown to be below the compliance limits of both FCC and CISPR testing with no external filtering required.
Ultimately, compliance with any radiated emissions requirements depends significantly on the entire system
under test. In applications where system-level trade-offs such as compromised component layout or lengthy
speaker wires have increased emissions levels, a passive output filter can be added to the outputs of the
device in order to decrease EMI levels.
5.3.1Reduced Filter Order with the CS35L01/03
In applications which require an output filter, the unique design of the CS35L01/03 allows a much smaller,
less expensive output filter to be used than what is normally found in Class-D amplifiers. In contrast to a
second order filter implemented with a series inductive element (traditional inductor or ferrite beads) and
a shunt capacitive element, basic filtering for the CS35L01/03 is accomplished by a single-order capacitive element attached to the OUTx terminals. This is highlighted in Figure 5 below. Of course, if the system
requires more aggressive filtering, a ferrite bead can be added in series with the outputs to further attenuate system level noise.
CS35L01/03
5.3.2Filter Component Selection
Usually, the need for output filtering is determined after the system under test has failed EMI testing. During this testing, problem frequencies are easily identified by the peaks which appear in the spectral plots
gathered in the EMI testing.
Selection of the filter components should ensure that shunt elements (i.e. C
low impedance at the frequency corresponding to the tallest peak in the spectral plot. If needed, series
components such as ferrite beads (i.e. L
ance at the frequency corresponding to the tallest peak in the spectral plot.
Careful attention should be paid to the current-carrying capabilities of any included ferrite beads and the
impedance of the ferrite beads in the audio band. A proper trade-off in ferrite bead selection is one that
allows the ferrite bead to sufficiently attenuate the problematic high-frequency emissions without compromising audio performance.

5.3.3Output Filter Power Dissipation Considerations
PI2Z=

-- -
CV2f=
In systems without inductive series elements like inductors or ferrite beads, power losses in the output
filter are equal to the switching losses that occur in the system due to the cyclical charging and discharging
of capacitors connected to the amplifier outputs. In systems that require an inductive series element, conducted losses also occurs due to the series impedance added to the output path.
5.3.3.1Conduction Losses for All modes of Operation
For all modes of operation (SD, FSD, HD, and FHD) of the CS35L01/03, the conduction losses are governed by the equation:
Where:
P = Power dissipated in the series impedance.
I = RMS AC output current
Z = impedance of the series element at the frequency of the AC current
This equation neglects any series impedances presented by the PCB traces or speaker wires in the output
path.
CS35L01/03
5.3.3.2Switching Losses in SD/FSD Mode
Switching losses in SD/FSD Mode are governed by the equation
Where:
P = Power dissipated in the capacitor (neglecting parasites).
C = Value of filtering capacitor
V = Peak voltage developed across the capacitor
f = Switching frequency of the outputs
These calculations are straightforward, as the peak voltage is simply the voltage level attached to VBATT,
the capacitor is the value of capacitor that has been added for filtering (neglecting parasitic board capacitances), and the frequency is 192 kHz or 76 kHz for SD and FSD, respectively.
5.3.3.3Switching Losses in HD/FHD.
Many factors affect the switching losses when the device is operated in HD/FHD mode. These factors include the frequency of the content being amplified, the voltage level of VBATT, and the amplitude of the
output signal will factor into both the voltage presented across the capacitors and the frequency at which
the capacitors are charged or discharged.
Static signals (i.e. sine waves at a fixed amplitude) are easier to consider than are dynamic signals (i.e.
musical content), as they are governed by the same equation as that listed in Section 5.3.3.1 and Section
5.3.3.2 on page 18. Modifications to that equation are limited to the voltage term (V) and the frequency
term (f), depending on whether the static input signal amplitude is causing the output devices to switch at
76 kHz or 192 kHz, and to operate off of the VBATT supply or off of the internally generated LDO.

in idle power dissipation when an external output filter is necessary. This is because the voltage term (V)
is significantly reduced in HD and FHD mode. As can be seen in the equation, this is notable because
reduction in the operating voltage reduces power losses not linearly, but instead exponentially- due to the
voltage squared term (V
2
). It is also notable that when operated at high output levels, FHD modes also
offers unique improvement in output filter losses, due to reducing the switching frequency (f) at higher output levels.
5.4Power-Up and Power-Down
When pulled to a logic low state, the SD pin tristates the outputs and shuts down the CS35L01/03 device,
putting it into a low power mode.
5.4.1Recommended Power-Up Sequence
1. With the SD pin pulled low, apply power to the CS35L01/03 and wait for the power supply to be stable.
2. Set the SD
pin high to begin normal operation.
5.4.1.1Zero-Crossing on Power-Up Functionality
The CS35L01/03 implements an input-signal zero-crossing detection function that is enabled during power-up. This function is designed to prevent audible artifacts and eliminate any need to mute the amplifier’s
input audio signal during the power-up process.
CS35L01/03
After a minimum start-up time of t
, the CS35L01/03 will begin to detect input-signal zero-crossings.

The amplifier will then enable its switching outputs at the time of the first detected input-signal zero-crossing transition. If no input-signal zero-crossing is detected before t
, the zero-crossing function will tim-

5.4.2Recommended Power-Down Sequence

2. Pull the SD pin low in order to reset the device and put it into the low power mode.

3. The power supply to the CS35L01/03 can now be removed.
5.5Over Temperature Protection
The CS35L01/03 is internally protected against thermal overload. Built in die temperature sensing circuitry
monitors the die temperature and will place the device into shut-down if thermal overload occurs. A thermal overload is characterized by the die temperature reaching the Thermal Error Threshold (T
time the outputs will tristate and shut down.
If the device has entered into shut-down due to a thermal overload, the die temperature must remain below the Thermal Error Threshold (T

7. PARAMETER DEFINITIONS
Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR)
CS35L01/03
The ratio of the RMS value of the output signal, where P
THD+N<1%, to the RMS value of the noise floor with no input signal applied and measured over the specified bandwidth, typically 20 Hz to 20 kHz. This measurement technique has been accepted by the Electronic Industries Association of Japan, EIAJ CP-307. Expressed in decibels.
Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise (THD+N)
The ratio of the RMS value of the signal to the RMS sum of all other spectral components over the specified
band width (typically 10 Hz to 20 kHz), including distortion components. Expressed in decibels. Measured
at -1 and -20 dBFS as suggested in AES17-1991 Annex A.
Idle Channel Noise (ICN)
Measure of the signal present on the outputs of the device when no audio signal is presented to the input
pins. For this test, both input pins are shorted together, setting the differential signal to them to zero.
20. Dimensioning and tolerance per ASME Y 14.5M-1994.

8.2Recommend PCB Footprint and Routing Configuration
To ensure high-yield manufacturability, the PCB footprint for the CS35L01/03 should be constructed with
strict adherence to the specifications given in IPC-610. Departure from this specification significantly increases the probability of solder bridging and other manufacturing defects.
Routing of the traces into and out of the CS35L01/03 device should also be given consideration to avoid
manufacturing issues.
8.3Package Thermal Performance
Class-D amplifiers, though highly efficient, will produce some amount of heat through the process of amplifying the audio signal. As is well understood, this amount of heat is very small compared to traditional Class
AB amplifiers. Even so, as power levels increase and package sizes decrease, careful consideration must
be given to ensure thermal energy is removed from the device as efficiently as possible so that its operating
temperature is kept under its Over-Temperature Error Threshold.
CS35L01/03
Note:
The thermal impedance,
is a measurement of the impedance to the flow of thermal energy out of the
JA
device to the environment surrounding the device. This specification is directly related to the ability of the
PCB to which the CS35L01/03 is attached to transfer the heat from the device. The thermal impedance from
the junction of the device to the ambient surrounding the device and the thermal impedance from the device
into the PCB is shown in Table 2.

plication specific scenarios. The numbers given in Table 2 on page 31 can be used for a first order approximation, but proper characterization of the application’s specific PCB and supporting mechanicals is
needed to increase the accuracy of the result achieved here.)

“Electrical Characteristics - FSD Mode” section on page 11, “Electrical Characteristics - HD Mode” section
on page 12, or “Electrical Characteristics - FHD Mode” section on page 13 can be used. However, this
method will predict higher operating temperatures than what may be seen in the application, since power
content of audio signals is much smaller than that of the sine wave used to establish the power specifications.)
