TDA7498E
Preliminary data
PowerSSO36
with exposed pad up
Description
The TDA7498E is a dual BTL class-D audio
amplifier with a single power supply designed for
home systems and active speaker applications.
It comes in a 36-pin PowerSSO package with
exposed pad up (EPU) to facilitate mounting a
separate heatsink.
