1 Introduction
This section provides an overview of the Texas Instruments (TI) TPA6013A4 evaluation module (EVM).
The EVM user guide includes a brief description of the module and a list of EVM specifications.
1.1 Description
The TPA6013A4 is a stereo amplifier with 32-steps DC volume control. TPA6013A4 supports both
speaker and headphone output. TPA6013A4 also has 2-to-1 stereo input MUX.
The TPA6013A4 EVM is a complete, stand-alone audio board. It contains the TPA6013A4 TSSOP (PWP)
stereo amplifier. All components are Pb-free.

Operation
2 Operation
This section describes how to operate the TPA6013A4EVM.
2.1 Quick-Start List for Stand-Alone Operation
Use the following steps when operating the TPA6013A4EVM stand-alone board or when connecting the
EVM into an existing circuit.
2.1.1 Power and Ground
1. Ensure that the external power sources are set to OFF.
2. Set the power supply voltage between 4 V and 5.5 V. When connecting the power supply to the EVM,
first connect the ground connection to GND at the POWER terminal block, and then connect the
positive supply to VDDat the POWER terminal block. Verify that the connections are made to the
correct terminals.
2.1.2 Inputs and Outputs
2.1.2.1 Audio Input
1. Connect audio source at the RCA jacks LLINEIN and RLINEIN. Shunt jumper RIN and LIN for
single-ended input.
2. Short position 2 and 3 at 3-pin header RH JP. Audio source right channel will go into RLINEIN of the
amplifier.
3. Short position 2 and 3 at 3-pin header LH JP. Audio source left channel will go into LLINEIN of the
amplifier.
4. TPA6013A4 has 2-to-1 input MUX that can accept 2 single-ended stereo source. To use the MUX:
(a) Connect the first audio source at RCA jacks LLINEIN and RLINEIN. Shunt jumper RIN and LIN for
single-ended input.
(b) Connect the second audio source at test points RHPIN and LHPIN.
(c) Remove shunts at 3-pin headers RH JP and LH JP.
(d) To select LLINEIN and RLINEIN, remove shunt at HP/LINE.
(e) To select LHPIN and RHPIN, shunt at HP/LINE.

2.1.2.2 Audio Output
1. Connect speakers at terminal blocks ROUT and LOUT.
2. TPA6013A4 supports both speaker and headphone output. To select speaker output, remove
headphone in the headphone jack. To select headphone output, insert headphone into the headphone
jack; speaker amplifiers will be turned off automatically.
2.1.2.3 Other Controls
1. Shutdown is controlled by pushbutton S1. Press and hold S1 to place the TPA6013A4 in shutdown
mode. Release S1 to reactivate the TPA6013A4.
2. Volume is controlled by potentiometer.
3. Shunt FADE to enable fade function. Remove shunt to disable fade function.
4. To use SEDIFF and SEMAX function, apply voltage at test points SEDIFF and SEMAX. SEDIFF and
SEMAX can also be controlled by placing resistors of different values at R4 and R7.

FCC Warning
This evaluation board/kit is intended for use for ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT, DEMONSTRATION, OR EVALUATION PURPOSES
ONLY and is not considered by TI to be a finished end-product fit for general consumer use. It generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and has not been tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference. Operation of this equipment in other environments may
cause interference with radio communications, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may
be required to correct this interference.
EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of HPVSS - 0.3 V to HPVDD + 0.3 V and the output voltage range of
HPVSS to HPVDD.
Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible damage to the EVM. If there are questions
concerning the input range, please contact a TI field representative prior to connecting the input power.
Applying loads outside of the specified output range may result in unintended operation and/or possible permanent damage to the EVM.
Please consult the EVM User's Guide prior to connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification,
please contact a TI field representative.
During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than 85°C. The EVM is designed to operate
properly with certain components above 85°C as long as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components include but are
not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors. These types of devices can be identified
using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User's Guide. When placing measurement probes near these devices during operation,
please be aware that these devices may be very warm to the touch.
