FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Source selector

The input to channel 1 (CH1) and channel 2 (CH2) is determined by the source selector. The selection is made from the
following AF input signals:

• IN 1 L (pin 18); IN1 R (pin 20)
or

• IN2 L (pin 1); IN2 R (pin 3)

Mode selector

The mode selector selects between stereo, sound A and sound B (in the event of bilingual transmission) for OUT R and
OUT L.

Volume control and balance

The volume control consists of two stages (left and right). In each part the gain can be adjusted between +6 dB and

−64 dB in steps of 2 dB. An additional step allows an attenuation of ≥ 80 dB. Both parts can be controlled independently

over the whole range, which allows the balance to be varied by controlling the volume of left and right output channels.

Linear stereo, pseudo stereo, spatial stereo and forced mono mode

(1)

It is possible to select four modes: linear stereo, pseudo stereo, spatial stereo or forced mono. The pseudo stereo mode
handles mono transmissions, the spatial stereo mode handles stereo transmissions and the forced mono can be used
in the event of stereo signals.

(1) During forced mono mode the pseudo stereo mode cannot be used.

Bass control

The bass control stage can be switched from an emphasis of 15 dB to an attenuation of 12 dB for low frequencies in
steps of 3 dB.

Treble control

The treble control stage can be switched from +12 dB to −12 dB in steps of 3 dB.

Bias and power supply

The TDA8425 includes a bias and power supply stage, which generates a voltage of 0.5 × V

CC

with a low output

impedance and injector currents for the logic part.

Power-on reset

The on-chip power-on reset circuit sets the mute bit to active, which mutes both parts of the treble amplifier. The muting
can be switched by transmission of the mute bit.

C-bus receiver and data handling

Bus specification
The TDA8425 is controlled via the 2-wire I2C-bus by a microcomputer.

The two wires (SDA − serial data, SCL− serial clock) carry information between the devices connected to the bus. Both
SDA and SCL are bidirectional lines, connected to a positive supply voltage via a pull up resistor.
When the bus is free both lines are HIGH.
The data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock. The HIGH or LOW state of the data line
can only change when the clock signal on the SCL line is LOW. The set up and hold times are specified in AC
CHARACTERISTICS.

A HIGH-to-LOW transition of the SDA line while SCL is HIGH is defined as a start condition.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition of the SDA line while SCL is HIGH is defined as a stop condition.
The bus receiver will be reset by the reception of a start condition. The bus is considered to be busy after the start
condition.
The bus is considered to be free again after a stop condition.

Module address

Data transmission to the TDA8425 starts with the module address MAD.

Fig.3 TDA8425 module address.

TDA8425

Subaddress

After the module address byte a second byte is used to select the following functions:

• Volume left, volume right, bass, treble and switch functions

The subaddress SAD is stored within the TDA8425. Table 1 defines the coding of the second byte after the module
address MAD.

Table 1 Second byte after module address MAD

The automatic increment feature of the slave address enables a quick slave receiver initialization, within one
transmission, by the I

C-bus controller (see Fig.5).

Definition of 3rd byte

A third byte is used to transmit data to the TDA8425. Table 2 defines the coding of the third byte after module address
MAD and subaddress SAD.

Sequence of data transmission

After a power-on reset all five functions have to be adjusted with five data transmissions. It is recommended that data
information for switch functions are transmitted last because all functions have to be adjusted when the muting is
switched off. The sequence of transmission of other data information is not critical.

The order of data transmission is shown in Figures 4 and 6. The number of data transmissions is unrestricted but before
each data byte the module address MAD and the correct subaddress SAD is required.

SOLDERING
Introduction

There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC
packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when
through-hole and surface mounted components are mixed
on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is
not always suitable for surface mounted ICs, or for
printed-circuits with high population densities. In these
situations reflow soldering is often used.

This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our

“IC Package Databook”

(order code 9398 652 90011).

Soldering by dipping or by wave

The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is
260 °C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact

with the joint for more than 5 seconds. The total contact
time of successive solder waves must not exceed
5 seconds.

The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but
the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the
specified maximum storage temperature (T

stg max

). If the
printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling
may be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the
temperature within the permissible limit.

Repairing soldered joints

Apply a low voltage soldering iron (less than 24 V) to the
lead(s) of the package, below the seating plane or not
more than 2 mm above it. If the temperature of the
soldering iron bit is less than 300 °C it may remain in
contact for up to 10 seconds. If the bit temperature is
between 300 and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.
