About the TS2007FC
The TS2007FC is an audio power class D amplifier that can drive up to 1.4 W into an 8 Ω load at 5 V. It achieves better efficiency compared to a typical class AB audio power amplifier.
This device allows switching between two different gains: 6 or 12 dB via a logic signal on the GS pin. Pop and click reduction circuitry provides low on/off switch noise while allowing the device to start within 1 ms. A standby function (active low) reduces the current consumption to 1 μA typical. The TS2007FC also integrates an output short-circuit protection mechanism and thermal shutdown protection to avoid damage to the amplifier.

Description of the evaluation board AN2862

1 Description of the evaluation board

The TS2007FC demonstration board is designed for the TS2007FC class D audio differential amplifier. The TS2007FC device, in a flip-chip package, is mounted on a two­layer PCB. Easily-accessible connectors on the board allow changing or driving the gain select and standby control pins, as well as changing the input configuration of the TS2007FC.
The TS2007FC’s gain can be set to either 6 or 12 dB via the P1 connector (see Tab l e 1 ).
The input configuration is either capacitor-coupled or common-mode feedback. On the evaluation board, the JP3 and JP4 connectors allow you to change the input configuration.
In the capacitor-coupled configuration, the -3 dB cut-off frequency in Hz is:
