Description
The TS4962 is a differential class-D BTL power
amplifier. It can drive up to 2.2 W into a 4 Ω load
and 1.4 W into an 8 Ω load at 5 V. It achieves
outstanding efficiency (88% typ.) compared to
standard AB-class audio amps.
January 2010Doc ID 10968 Rev 81/44
The gain of the device can be controlled via two
external gain setting resistors. Pop & click
reduction circuitry provides low on/off switch noise
while allowing the device to start within 5 ms. A
standby function (active low) enables the current
consumption to be reduced to 10 nA typical.

1. Caution: this device is not protected in the event of abnormal operating conditions such as short-circuiting
between any one output pin and ground or between any one output pin and VCC, and between individual
output pins.
2. All voltage values are measured with respect to the ground pin.
3. The magnitude of the input signal must never exceed VCC + 0.3 V/GND - 0.3 V.
4. Exceeding the power derating curves during a long period will provoke abnormal operation.
5. Human body model: a 100 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged through a
1.5 kΩ resistor between two pins of the device. This is done for all couples of connected pin combinations
while the other pins are floating.
6. Machine model: a 200 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged directly between
two pins of the device with no external series resistor (internal resistor < 5 Ω). This is done for all couples of
connected pin combinations while the other pins are floating.
7. Charged device model: all pins and the package are charged together to the specified voltage and then
discharged directly to the ground through only one pin. This is done for all pins.
8. The magnitude of the standby signal must never exceed VCC + 0.3 V/GND - 0.3 V.

Application informationTS4962
4 Application information
4.1 Differential configuration principle
The TS4962 is a monolithic, fully differential input/output class D power amplifier. The
TS4962 also includes a common-mode feedback loop that controls the output bias value to
average it at V
always have a maximum output voltage swing, and by consequence, maximize the output
power. Moreover, as the load is connected differentially compared to a single-ended
topology, the output is four times higher for the same power supply voltage.
The advantages of a fully differential amplifier are:
●high PSRR (power supply rejection ratio).
●high common mode noise rejection.
●virtually zero pop without additional circuitry, giving a faster start-up time compared to
conventional single-ended input amplifiers.
●easier interfacing with differential output audio DAC.
●no input coupling capacitors required because of common-mode feedback loop.
The main disadvantage is that, since the differential function is directly linked to the external
resistor mismatching, particular attention should be paid to this mismatching in order to
obtain the best performance from the amplifier.

4.3 Common-mode feedback loop limitations
As explained previously, the common-mode feedback loop allows the output DC bias
voltage to be averaged at V
However, due to a V
limitation in the input stage (see Table 3: Operating conditions on
icm
page 4), the common-mode feedback loop can play its role only within a defined range. This
range depends upon the values of V
value, we can apply this formula (no tolerance on Rin):

Application informationTS4962
4.5 Decoupling of the circuit
A power supply capacitor, referred to as CS, is needed to correctly bypass the TS4962.
The TS4962 has a typical switching frequency at 250 kHz and output fall and rise time about
5 ns. Due to these very fast transients, careful decoupling is mandatory.
A 1 µF ceramic capacitor is enough, but it must be located very close to the TS4962 in order
to avoid any extra parasitic inductance being created by an overly long track wire. In relation
with dI/dt, this parasitic inductance introduces an overvoltage that decreases the global
efficiency and, if it is too high, may cause a breakdown of the device.
In addition, even if a ceramic capacitor has an adequate high frequency ESR value, its
current capability is also important. A 0603 size is a good compromise, particularly when a
4 Ω load is used.
Another important parameter is the rated voltage of the capacitor. A 1 µF/6.3 V capacitor
used at 5 V loses about 50% of its value. In fact, with a 5 V power supply voltage, the
decoupling value is about 0.5 µF instead of 1 µF. As C
THD+N in the medium-high frequency region, this capacitor variation becomes decisive. In
addition, less decoupling means higher overshoots, which can be problematic if they reach
the power supply AMR value (6 V).
has particular influence on the
S
4.6 Wake-up time (tWU)
When the standby is released to set the device ON, there is a wait of about 5 ms. The
TS4962 has an internal digital delay that mutes the outputs and releases them after this
time in order to avoid any pop noise.
4.7 Shutdown time (t
When the standby command is set, the time required to put the two output stages into high
impedance and to put the internal circuitry in standby mode is about 5 ms. This time is used
to decrease the gain and avoid any pop noise during the shutdown phase.
STBY
)
4.8 Consumption in standby mode
Between the standby pin and GND there is an internal 300 kΩ resistor. This resistor forces
the TS4962 to be in standby mode when the standby input pin is left floating.
However, this resistor also introduces additional power consumption if the standby pin
voltage is not 0 V.
For example, with a 0.4 V standby voltage pin, Table 3 on page 4 shows that you must add
0.4 V/300 kΩ = 1.3 µA typical (0.4 V/273 kΩ = 1.46 µA maximum) to the standby current
specified in Table 5 on page 5.

4.9 Single-ended input configuration
It is possible to use the TS4962 in a single-ended input configuration. However, input
coupling capacitors are needed in this configuration. Figure 61 shows a typical single-ended
input application.

In general, for mixed situations (single-ended and differential inputs) it is best to use the
same rule, that is, equalize impedance on both TS4962 inputs.
4.10 Output filter considerations
The TS4962 is designed to operate without an output filter. However, due to very sharp
transients on the TS4962 output, EMI-radiated emissions may cause some standard
compliance issues.
These EMI standard compliance issues can appear if the distance between the TS4962
outputs and the loudspeaker terminal is long (typically more than 50 mm, or 100 mm in both
directions, to the speaker terminals). As the PCB layout and internal equipment device are
different for each configuration, it is difficult to provide a one-size-fits-all solution.
However, to decrease the probability of EMI issues, there are several simple rules to follow.
●Reduce, as much as possible, the distance between the TS4962 output pins and the
speaker terminals.
●Use ground planes for "shielding" sensitive wires.
●Place, as close as possible to the TS4962 and in series with each output, a ferrite bead
with a rated current of at least 2.5 A and an impedance greater than 50 Ω at
frequencies above 30 MHz. If, after testing, these ferrite beads are not necessary,
replace them by a short-circuit.
●Allow enough footprint to place, if necessary, a capacitor to short perturbations to
ground (see Figure 63).

TS4962Application information
In the case where the distance between the TS4962 output and the speaker terminals is
high, it is possible to observe low frequency EMI issues due to the fact that the typical
operating frequency is 250 kHz. In this configuration, we recommend using an output filter
(as represented in Figure 1 on page 6). It should be placed as close as possible to the
device.
