LM4871
3W Audio Power Amplifier with Shutdown Mode
General Description
The LM4871 is a mono bridged audio power amplifier ca­pable of delivering 3W of continuous average power into a 3load with less than 10% THD when powered by a 5V power supply (Note 1). To conserve power in portable appli­cations, the LM4871’s micropower shutdown mode (I
=
0.6µA, typ) is activated when V
DD
is applied to the SHUT-
DOWN pin. Boomer audio power amplifiers are designed specifically to
provide high power, high fidelity audio output. They require few external components and operate on low supply volt­ages from 2.0V to 5.5V. Since the LM4871 does not require output coupling capacitors, bootstrap capacitors, or snubber networks, it is ideally suited for low-power portable systems that require minimum volume and weight.
Additional LM4871 features include thermal shutdown pro­tection, unity-gain stability, and external gain set.
Note 1: An LM4871LD that has been properlymountedtoa circuit board will deliver 3W into 3(at 10% THD). The other package options for the LM4871 will deliver 1.5W into 8(at 10% THD). See the Application Information sections for further information concerning the LM4871LD, LM4871MM, LM4871M, and the LM4871N.

Application Information
EXPOSED-DAP PACKAGE PCB MOUNTING CONSIDERATION
The LM4871’s exposed-DAP (die attach paddle) package (LD) provides 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 surrounding air. The result is a low voltage audio power amplifier that produces 2W at 1%THD with a 4load.This high power is achieved through careful consideration of necessary thermal design. Failing to optimize thermal design may compromise the LM4871’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’sPCB copper pad is connected to a large plane of continuous unbroken copper. This plane forms a thermal mass, 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 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 1.27mm pitch. Ensure efficient thermal conductivity by plating through the vias.
Best thermal performance is achieved with the largest prac­tical heat sink area. If the heatsink and amplifier share the same PCB layer, a nominal 2.5in
2
area is necessary for 5V operation with a 4load. Heatsink areas not placed on the same PCB layer as the LM4871 should be 5in
2
(min) for the same supply voltage and load resistance. The last two area recommendations apply for 25˚C ambient temperature. In­crease the area to compensate for ambient temperatures above 25˚C. The LM4871’s power de-rating curve in the TypicalPerformance Characteristics shows the maximum power dissipation versus temperature. An example PCB lay­out for the LD package is shown in the Demonstration Board Layout section. Further detailed and specific infor­mation concerning PCB layout, fabrication, and mounting an LD (LLP) package is available from National Semiconduc­tor’s Package Engineering Group under application note AN1187.
PCB LAYOUT AND SUPPLY REGULATION CONSIDERATIONS FOR DRIVING 3AND 4LOADS
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 de­pendant 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, 0.1trace resistance reduces the output power dissipated by a 4load from 2.0W to
1.95W. 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.
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
supply regulation. Therefore, making the power supply traces as wide as possible helps maintain full output voltage swing.
BRIDGE CONFIGURATION EXPLANATION
As shown in
Figure 1
, the LM4871 has two operational amplifiers internally, allowing for a few different amplifier configurations. The first amplifier’s gain is externally config­urable; the second amplifier is internally fixed in a unity-gain, inverting configuration. The closed-loop gain of the first am­plifier is set by selecting the ratio of R
f
to Riwhile the second
amplifier’s gain is fixed by the two internal 40kresistors.
Figure 1
shows that the output of amplifier one serves as the input to amplifier two, which results in both amplifiers pro­ducing signals identical in magnitude, but 180˚ out of phase. Consequently, the differential gain for the IC is
A
VD
= 2 *(Rf/Ri)
By driving the load differentially through outputs Vo1 and Vo2, an amplifier configuration commonly referred to as “bridged mode” is established. Bridged mode operation is different from the classical single-ended amplifier configura­tion where one side of its load is connected to ground.
A bridge amplifier design has a few distinct advantages over the single-ended configuration, as it provides differential drive to the load, thus doubling output swing for a specified supply voltage. Four times the output power is possible as compared to a single-ended amplifier under the same con­ditions. This increase in attainable output power assumes that the amplifier is not current limited or clipped. In order to choose an amplifier’s closed-loop gain without causing ex­cessive clipping, please refer to the Audio Power Amplifier Design section.
Another advantage of the differential bridge output is no net DC voltage across load. This results from biasing V
1 and
V
2 at the same DC voltage, in this case VDD/2 . This eliminates the coupling capacitor that single supply, single­ended amplifiers require. Eliminating an output coupling ca­pacitor in a single-ended configuration forces a single supply amplifier’s half-supply bias voltage across the load. The current flow created by the half-supply bias voltage in­creases internal IC power dissipation and my permanently damage loads such as speakers.
POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a successful amplifier, whether the amplifier is bridged or single-ended. A direct consequence of the increased power delivered to the load by a bridge amplifier is an increase in internal power dissipation. Equation 1 states the maximum power dissipation point for a bridge amplifier operating at a given supply voltage and driving a specified output load.
P
DMAX
= 4*(VDD)2/(2π2RL) (1)
Since the LM4871 has two operational amplifiers in one package, the maximum internal power dissipation is 4 times that of a single-ended ampifier. Even with this substantial increase in power dissipation, the LM4871 does not require heatsinking under most operating conditions and output loading. From Equation 1, assuming a 5V power supply and an 8load, the maximum power dissipation point is 625 mW. The maximum power dissipation point obtained from Equation 1 must not be greater than the power dissi­pation that results from Equation 2:

assuming free air operation. For the LD package soldered to a DAP pad that expands to a copper area of 1.0in
2
on a
PCB, the LM4871’s θ
JA
is 56˚C/W. T
JMAX
= 150˚C for the
LM4871. The θ
JA
can be decreased by using some form of
heat sinking. The resultant θ
JA
will be the summation of the
θ
JC
, θCS, and θSA. θJCis the junction to case of the package
(or to the exposed DAP, as is the case with the LD package),
θ
CS
is the case to heat sink thermal resistance and θSAis the heat sink to ambient thermal resistance. By adding addi­tional copper area around the LM4871, the θ
JA
can be reduced from its free air value for the SO and MSOP pack­ages. Increasing the copper area around the LD package from 1.0in
2
to 2.0in2area results in a θJAdecrease to
46˚C/W.Depending on the ambient temperature, T
A
, and the
θ
JA
, Equation 2 can be used to find the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC packaging. If the result of Equation 1 is greater than that of Equation 2, then either the supply voltage must be decreased, the load im­pedance increased, the θ
JA
decreased, or the ambient tem­perature reduced. For the typical application of a 5V power supply, with an 8load, and no additional heatsinking, the maximum ambient temperature possible withoutviolating the maximum junction temperature is approximately 61˚C pro­vided that device operation is around the maximum power dissipation point and assuming surface mount packaging. For the LD package in a typical application of a 5V power supply, with a 4load, and 1.0in
2
copper area soldered to the exposed DAP pad, the maximum ambient temperature is approximately 77˚C providing device operation is around the maximum power dissipation point. Internal power dissipation is a function of output power. If typical operation is not around the maximum power dissipation point, the ambient temperature can be increased. Refer to the Typical Perfor- mance Characteristics curves for power dissipation infor­mation for different output powers and output loading.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
As with any amplifier, proper supply bypassing is critical for low noise performance and high power supply rejection. The capacitor location on both the bypass and power supply pins should be as close to the LM4871 as possible. The capacitor connected between the bypass pin and ground improves the internal bias voltage’s stability, producing improved PSRR. The improvements to PSRR increase as the bypass pin capacitor increases. Typical applications employ a 5V regu­lator with 10µF and a 0.1µF bypass capacitors which aid in supply stability. This does not eliminate the need for bypass­ing the supply nodes of the LM4871 with a 1µF tantalum capacitor.The selection of bypass capacitors, especially C
B
, is dependent upon PSRR requirements, click and pop per­formance as explained in the section, Proper Selection of
External Components, system cost, and size constraints.
SHUTDOWN FUNCTION
In order to reduce power consumption while not in use, the LM4871 contains a shutdown pin to externally turn off the amplifier’s bias circuitry. This shutdown feature turns the amplifier off when a logic high is placed on the shutdown pin. The trigger point between a logic low and logic high level is typically half- supply. It is best to switch between ground and supply to provide maximum device performance. By switch­ing the shutdown pin to V
DD
, the LM4871 supply current draw will be minimized in idle mode. While the device will be disabled with shutdown pin voltages less then V
DD
, the idle
current may be greater than the typical value of 0.6µA. In either case, the shutdown pin should be tied to a definite voltage to avoid unwanted state changes.
In many applications, a microcontroller or microprocessor output is used to control the shutdown circuitry which pro­vides a quick, smooth transition into shutdown. Another so­lution is to use a single-pole, single-throw switch in conjunc­tion with an external pull-up resistor. When the switch is closed, the shutdown pin is connected to ground and en­ables the amplifier. If the switch is open, then the external pull-up resistor will disable the LM4871. This scheme guar­antees that the shutdown pin will not float thus preventing unwanted state changes.
PROPER SELECTION OF EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Proper selection of external components in applications us­ing integrated power amplifiers is critical to optimize device and system performance. While the LM4871 is tolerant of external component combinations, consideration to compo­nent values must be used to maximize overall system qual­ity.
The LM4871 is unity-gain stable which gives a designer maximum system flexibility. The LM4871 should be used in low gain configurations to minimize THD+N values, and maximize the signal to noise ratio. Low gain configurations require large input signals to obtain a given output power. Input signals equal to or greater than 1 Vrms are available from sources such as audio codecs. Please refer to the section, Audio Power Amplifier Design, for a more com­plete explanation of proper gain selection.
Besides gain, one of the major considerations is the closed­loop bandwidth of the amplifier. To a large extent, the band­width is dictated by the choice of external components shown in
Figure 1
. The input coupling capacitor, Ci, forms a first order high pass filter which limits low frequency re­sponse. This value should be chosen based on needed frequency response for a few distinct reasons.
Selection Of Input Capacitor Size
Large input capacitors are both expensive and space hungry for portable designs. Clearly, a certain sized capacitor is needed to couple in low frequencies without severe attenu­ation. But in many cases the speakers used in portable systems, whether internal or external, have little ability to reproduce signals below 100Hz to 150Hz. Thus, using a large input capacitor may not increase actual system perfor­mance.
In addition to system cost and size, click and pop perfor­mance is effected by the size of the input coupling capacitor, C
i.
A larger input coupling capacitor requires more charge to
reach its quiescent DC voltage (nominally 1/2 V
DD
). This charge comes from the output via the feedback and is apt to create pops upon device enable. Thus, by minimizing the capacitor size based on necessary low frequency response, turn-on pops can be minimized.
Besides minimizing the input capacitor size, careful consid­eration should be paid to the bypass capacitor value. Bypass capacitor, C
B
, is the most critical component to minimize turn-on pops since it determines how fast the LM4871 turns on. The slower the LM4871’s outputs ramp to their quiescent DC voltage (nominally 1/2 V
DD
), the smaller the turn-on pop.
Choosing C
B
equal to 1.0µF along with a small value of Ci(in the range of 0.1µF to 0.39µF), should produce a virtually clickless and popless shutdown function. While the device will function properly, (no oscillations or motorboating), with C
B
equal to 0.1µF, the device will be much more susceptible
LM4871

to turn-on clicks and pops. Thus, a value of C
B
equal to
1.0µF is recommended in all but the most cost sensitive designs.

Given:
Power Output 1 Wrms Load Impedance 8 Input Level 1 Vrms Input Impedance 20 k Bandwidth 100 Hz–20 kHz
±
0.25 dB
A designer must first determine the minimum supply rail to obtain the specified output power. By extrapolating from the Output Power vs Supply Voltage graphs in the Typical Per- formance Characteristics section, the supply rail can be easily found. A second way to determine the minimum sup­ply rail is to calculate the required V
opeak
using Equation 3 and add the output voltage. Using this method, the minimum supply voltage would be (V
opeak
+(V
OD
TOP
+V

)), where
V

BOT
and V
OD
TOP
are extrapolated from the Dropout Volt­age vs Supply Voltage curve in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
(3)
Using the Output Power vs Supply Voltage graph for an 8 load, the minimum supply rail is 4.6V. But since 5V is a standard voltage in most applications, it is chosen for the supply rail. Extra supply voltage creates headroom that al­lows the LM4871 to reproduce peaks in excess of 1W with­out producing audible distortion. At this time, the designer must make sure that the power supply choice along with the output impedance does not violate the conditions explained in the Power Dissipation section.
Once the power dissipation equations have been addressed, the required differential gain can be determined from Equa­tion 4.

R

From Equation 4, the minimum A
VD
is 2.83; use AVD=3.
Since the desired input impedance was 20k, and with a A
VD
impedance of 2, a ratio of 1.5:1 of Rfto Riresults in an
allocation of R
i
= 20kand Rf= 30k. The final design step is to address the bandwidth requirements which must be stated as a pair of −3dB frequency points. Five times away from a −3dB point is 0.17dB down from passband response which is better than the required
±
0.25dB specified.

The high frequency pole is determined by the product of the desired frequency pole, f

, and the differential gain, AVD.
With a A
VD
= 3 and fH= 100kHz, the resulting GBWP = 150kHz which is much smaller than the LM4871 GBWP of 4MHz. This figure displays that if a designer has a need to
design an amplifier with a higher differential gain, the LM4871 can still be used without running into bandwidth limitations.
