4W Stereo Class-D Audio Amplifier with Headphone Driver and Non-Clip Power Limit Provides a Compact High-Quality Audio Solution
Description
The PAM8019E, offered by DIODES, is a stereo 4W Class-D audio-power amplifier for driving bridged-tied speakers and includes a stereo Class-AB amplifier for driving headphones. With advanced 62-step DC volume control to minimize external components, PAM8019E is capable of allowing simple and accurate volume control over the gain range of +20dB (Volume = 0V) to -60dB (Volume = VDD).
Integrated with spread spectrum modulation (SSM) design for EMI suppression, the PAM8019E enables the use of inexpensive ferrite bead filters. The integrated non-clip power limit (PLIM) technology suppresses output automatically with programmable power limit, while improving the sound quality and helping to protect the speakers.
The PAM8019E supports speakers open short detection during startup to protect the whole audio system before normal operation starts. Protection features also include undervoltage protection, DC input protection, short-circuit protection on all audio outputs, and thermal shutdown of the entire system.
The PAM8019E is designed to be pop-free for the Class-D amplifier and headphone driver under all kinds of operating conditions.
