LM48411 Ultra-Low EMI, Filterless, 2.5W, Stereo, Class D Audio Power Amplifier with E
General Description
The LM48411 is a single supply, high efficiency, 2.5W/channel Class D audio amplifier. The LM48411 features National's
Enhanced Emissions Suppression (E2S) system, that features a unique patent-pending ultra low EMI, spread spectrum, PWM architecture, that significantly reduces RF emissions while preserving audio quality and efficiency. The E2S
system improves battery life, reduces external component
count, board area consumption, system cost, and simplifying
design.
The LM48411 is designed to meet the demands of mobile
phones and other portable communication devices. Operating on a single 5V supply, it is capable of delivering 2.5W/
channel of continuous output power to a 4Ω load with less
than 10% THD+N. Its flexible power supply requirements allow operation from 2.4V to 5.5V. The wide band spread
spectrum architecture of the LM48411 reduces EMI-radiated
emissions due to the modulator frequency.
The LM48411 features high efficiency compared to a conventional Class AB amplifier. The E2S system includes an
advanced, patent-pending edge rate control (ERC) architecture that further reduce emissions by minimizing the high
frequency component of the device output, while maintaining
high quality audio reproduction and high efficiency (η = 87%
at VDD = 3.6V, PO = 500mW). Four gain options are pin selectable through GAIN0 and GAIN1 pins.
The LM48411 features a low-power consumption shutdown
mode. Shutdown may be enabled by driving the Shutdown
pin to a logic low (GND).
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.
