The DEMO TS4994 is an evaluation board designed for the TS4994 low power differential
audio amplifier. The micropackage DFN10 (dual flat non leaded 10 pins) allows space
saving and good thermal dissipation.
The differential gain is set at 1V/V and can be adapt ed if necessary with a modification of R1
to R4 values. Av=R2/R1=R4/R3 with R1=R3 and R2=R4.
On the board, you can set the Cn3 and Cn4 jumpers to modify the input configuration from
capacitor coupled to common mode feedback. In capacitor coupled configuration, the -3dB
cut-off frequency in Hz is:
1/(6.28xR1xC1) = 1/(6.28xR3xC2)
with R in Ohm, C in Farad and C1=C2.
For more detailed information about component calculation, refer to the TS4994 datasheet.
