GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA7052B and TDA7052BT are 1 W and 0.5 W mono
Bridge-Tied Load (BTL) output amplifiers with DC volume
control.
They have been designed for use in TV and monitors, but
are also suitable for use in battery-fed portable recorders
and radios.
A Missing Current Limiter (MCL) is built in. The MCL circuit
is activated when the difference in current between the
output terminal of each amplifier exceeds 100 mA
(300 mA typ.). This level of 100 mA allows for headphone
applications (single-ended).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA7052B and TDA7052BT are mono BTL output
amplifiers with DC volume control which have been
designed for use in TV and monitors but are also suitable
for use in battery-fed portable recorders and radios.
In conventional DC volume circuits the control or input
stage is AC coupled to the output stage via external
capacitors to keep the offset voltage low. In the TDA7052B
and TDA7052BT the DC volume control stage is
integrated into the input stage so that no coupling
capacitors are required. With this configuration, a low
offset voltage is maintained and the minimum supply
voltage remains low.
The BTL principle offers the following advantages:
• Lower peak value of the supply current
• The frequency of the ripple on the supply voltage is twice
the signal frequency.
Consequently, a reduced power supply with smaller
capacitors can be used which results in cost reductions.
For portable applications there is a trend to decrease the
supply voltage, resulting in a reduction of output power at
conventional output stages. Using the BTL principle
increases the output power.
TDA7052B
The maximum gain of the amplifier is fixed at 40.5 dB.
The DC volume control stage has a logarithmic control
characteristic. Therefore, the total gain can be controlled
from 40.5 dB to −33 dB. If the DC volume control voltage
falls below 0.4 V, the device will switch to the mute mode.
The amplifier is short-circuit proof to ground, V
across the load. Also a thermal protection circuit is
implemented. If the crystal temperature rises above
+150 °C the gain will be reduced, thereby reducing the
output power. Special attention is given to switch-on and
switch-off clicks, low HF radiation and a good overall
stability.

equal to the DC output offset voltage divided by R

2. The noise output voltage (RMS value) at f = 500 kHz is measured with RS=0Ω and B = 5 kHz.
3. The ripple rejection is measured with RS=0Ω and f = 100 Hz to 10 kHz. The ripple voltage VR of 200 mV
(RMS value) is applied to the positive supply rail.
4. The noise output voltage (RMS value) is measured with RS=5kΩ unweighted.
5. The DC volume control can be configured in several ways. Two possible circuits are shown in Figs 14 and 15.
The circuits at the volume control pin will influence the switch-on and switch-off behaviour and the maximum voltage
gain.
