GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The TDA7057AQ is a stereo BTL output amplifier with DC
volume control. The device is designed for use in TV and
monitors, but are also suitable for battery-fed portable
recorders and radios.

Missing Current Limiter (MCL)

A MCL protection circuit is built-in. The MCL circuit is
activated when the difference in current between the
output terminal of each amplifier exceeds 100 mA
(typical 300 mA). This level of 100 mA allows for
headphone applications (single-ended).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The TDA7057AQ is a stereo output amplifier with two DC
volume control stages. The device is designed for TV and
monitors, but are also suitable for battery-fed portable
recorders and radios.

In conventional DC volume control circuits the control or
input stage is AC coupled to the output stage via external
capacitors to keep the offset voltage low.

In the TDA7057AQ the two DC volume control stages are
integrated into the input stages so that no coupling
capacitors are required and a low offset voltage is still
maintained. The minimum supply voltage also 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.

Fig.2 Pin configuration.

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.

The maximum gain of the amplifier is fixed at 40.5 dB. The
DC volume control stages have 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 a short-circuit protected to ground, V

and

P

across the load. A thermal protection circuit is also
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.
