Description of external parts

C1 (1µF) · Input capacitor (Coupling capacitor for input signal)

Decreasing the capacitance value lowers the frequency response at low frequencies.

C2 (22µF) · Feedback capacitor (Bypass of feedback signal)

Decreasing the capacitance value lowers the frequency response at low frequencies ; increasing the
capacitance value makes the starting time latar.

C3 (4.7µF) · Muting capacitor

Decreasing the capacitance value makes the starting time earlier ; removing C3 causes pop noise.
Increasing the capacitance value makes the starting time later.

C4 (220pF) · Phase compensation capacitor (Phase compensation by local feedback) Decreasing the capacitance

value causes the frequency response to extend at high frequencies, and thereby oscillation is liable to
occur. Increasing the capacitance value worsens distortion factor at high frequencies.

C5 (0.47µF) · Oscillation blocking capacitor

Decreasing the capacitance value causes oscillation to liable to occur. Using an ordinary electrolytic
capacitor may cause oscillation to occur at a low temperature. Use a tantalum or alsicon electrolytic
capacitor that is good in temperature characteristic.

C6 (470µF) · Output capacitor (Cutoff of DC to speaker)

Decreasing the capacitanc value causes insufficient power at low frequencies.

C7 (220µF) · Bootstrap capacitor (Feedback from output stage)

Decreasing the capacitance value causes insufficient power at low frequencies, especially when
voltage is reduced.

C8 (220µF) · Power capacitor (Drop in power impedance)

Decreasing the capacitance value causes motor noise, etc. to be entered easily. Removing C8 may
cause oscillation to occur.

C9 (47µF) · Capacitor for ripple filter (Filter for bias voltage)

Decreasing the capacitance value causes the circuit to be subjected to the influence of power supply,
and thereby ripple is liable to occur.

ri (100Ω) · Feedback resistor (Setting of voltage gain)

Decreasing the resistance value increases voltage gain, but worsens distortion factor, and thereby gain
varies. Increasing the resistance value causes oscillation to liable to occur.

LA4510

Setting of Starting Time

The LA4510 contains a muting circuit to be operated at the time of power switch ON/OFF. Thus, pop noise coming
from power amplifier and preamplifier is rejected. The starting time depends on the capacitance value of feedback
capacitor C2 as well as muting capacitor (C3).

V oltage Gain

Voltage gain depends on the ratio of internal resis­tance value (20kΩ) to external resistance value (R1).
However, since setting of open loop voltage gain is a
little on the low side (62dB) due to soft cliping, it is
not recommendable to use the IC at a voltage gain
greater than recommended. If the IC is used at a
voltage gain less than recommended, take care not to
cause oscillation to occur.

Action to Prevent Oscillation

If oscillation occurs, check C5. The larger the capaci­tance value is or the smaller the value of tan δ is if the
capacitance value is the same, C5 acts more effec­tively against oscillation. Using an electrolytic
capacitor as C5 may cause oscillation to occur at a
low temperature.
It is recommendable to use a tantalum or alsicon electrolytic capacitor that is good in temperature characteristic. For
oscillation that occurs at a decreased voltage gain, increase the capacitance value of C4. If it is impossible for C4, C5
to act effectively against oscillation, add a ceramic capacitor of 470 to 1000pF across pin (4) and GND. In this case,
distortion factor at high frequencies worsens to some extent.

LA4510

Removal of Bootstrap Capacitor

In applications where more power than required is availabel (approximately 60% of rating), it is possible to remove
bootstrap capacitor C7 (pin (7)-to-pin (8) short). However, since this causes clipping unbalance to occur, this unbal­ance must be compensated by use of a resistor and a diode. A simple compensation method is shown below. This
method makes it possible to attain clipping balance at a certain supply voltage only.

*Note) · For C10, C11, use tantalum or

alsicon electrolytic capacitor.

· If oscillation occurs, add C14

(0.1 to 0.2µ ceramic capacitor).

Proper Cares in Using IC

· Maximum ratings
If the IC is used in the vicinity of the maximum ratings, even a slight variation in conditions may cause the maximum
ratings to be exceeded, thereby leading to breakdown. Allow an ample margin of variation for supply voltage, etc. and
use the IC in the range where the maximum ratings are not exceeded.

· Pin-to-pin short
If power is applied when the space between pins is shorted, breakdown or deterioration may occur. When mounting the
IC on the board or applying power, make sure that the space between pins is not shorted with solder, etc.

· Printed circuit pattern
When designing the printed circuit pattern, make the power supply, output, and ground lines thick and short and arrange
the pattern and parts so that no feedback loop is formed between input and output. Place power capacitor C8, oscillation
blocking capacitors C4, C5 as close to IC pins as possible to prevent oscillation from occurring. Refer to the sample
printed circuit pattern.
