Stereo 3.7W Class D Amplifier
Features
The MAX98306 stereo 3.7W Class D amplifier provides
Class AB audio performance with Class D efficiency.
This device offers five selectable gain settings (6dB,
9dB, 12dB, 15dB, and 18dB) set by a single gain-select
input (GAIN).
S Output Power 3.7W at 3I, 10% THD, 1.7W at 8I,
10% THD, with 5V Supply
S Passes EMI Limit Unfiltered with Up to 12in of
Speaker Cable
S High 83dB PSRR at 217Hz
Active emissions limiting, edge-rate, and overshoot control circuitry combined with a filterless spread-spectrum
modulation scheme (SSM) provide excellent EMI performance while eliminating the need for output filtering found
in traditional Class D devices. These features reduce
application component count.
S Spread-Spectrum Modulation and Active
Emissions Limiting
SFive Pin-Selectable Gains
SExcellent Click-and-Pop Suppression
SThermal and Overcurrent Protection
The IC's 2.0mA quiescent current with a 3.7V supply
extends battery life in portable applications.
SLow-Current Shutdown Mode
SSpace-Saving, 3mm x 3mm x 0.75mm,
14-Pin TDFN
The IC is available in a 14-pin TDFN (3mm x 3mm x
0.75mm) package specified over the extended -40NC to
+85NC temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Stereo 3.7W Class D Amplifier
The MAX98306 features low quiescent current, a lowpower shutdown mode, comprehensive click-and-pop
suppression, and excellent RF immunity.
The IC offers Class AB audio performance with Class D
efficiency in a minimal board-space solution.
The Class D amplifier features spread-spectrum modulation, active emissions limiting, edge-rate, and overshoot
control circuitry that offers significant improvements to
switch-mode amplifier radiated emissions.

The amplifier also features click-and-pop suppression
that reduces audible transients on startup and shutdown, as well as thermal-overload and short-circuit
protection.
The filterless Class D amplifier output stage offers much
higher efficiency than Class AB amplifiers. The high efficiency of a Class D amplifier is due to the pulse-width
modulated (PWM) rail-to-rail switching operation of the
output stage transistors. This ensures that any power
loss associated with the Class D output stage is mostly
due to the I2R loss of the MOSFET on-resistance and
quiescent current overhead.

EMI Filterless Output Stage
Traditional Class D amplifiers require the use of external
LC filters, or shielding, to meet EN55022B electromagnetic-interference (EMI) regulation standards. Maxim’s
active-emissions-limiting edge-rate control circuitry and
spread-spectrum modulation reduce EMI emissions,
while maintaining up to 92% efficiency.
Figure 1. EMI with 12in of Speaker Cable and No Output Filter
Spread-spectrum modulation and active emissions limiting limit wideband spectral components, while proprietary techniques ensure that the cycle-to-cycle variation of the switching period does not degrade audio
reproduction or efficiency. The IC’s spread-spectrum
modulator randomly varies the switching frequency by
Q20kHz around the center frequency (320kHz). Above
10MHz, the wideband spectrum looks like noise for EMI
purposes (Figure 1).
The IC features a low-power shutdown mode, drawing
P 1FA (typ) of supply current. Drive SHDN low to place
the MAX98306 into shutdown. Drive SHDN above 1.4V
for normal operation.
Speaker Current Limit
If the output current of the speaker amplifier exceeds
the current limit (3A typ), the IC disables the outputs for
approximately 100Fs. At the end of 100Fs, the outputs
are reenabled. If the fault condition still exists, the IC
continues to disable and reenable the outputs until the
fault condition is removed.
FREQUENCY (MHz)
Selectable Gain
The IC offers five programmable gains selected using
the GAIN input.
Shutdown
Click-and-Pop Suppression
The IC speaker amplifier features Maxim’s comprehensive click-and-pop suppression. During startup, the
click-and-pop suppression circuitry reduces any audible
transient sources internal to the device. When entering
shutdown, the differential speaker outputs ramp down to
PGND quickly and simultaneously.

Detailed Description
MAX98306
Stereo 3.7W Class D Amplifier
Applications Information
Filterless Class D Operation
Traditional Class D amplifiers require an output filter.
The filter adds cost and size and decreases THD performance. The IC’s filterless modulation scheme does not
require an output filter.
Because the switching frequency of the IC is well
beyond the bandwidth of most speakers, voice coil
movement due to the switching frequency is very small.
Use a speaker with a series inductance > 10FH. Typical
8I speakers exhibit series inductances in the 20FH to
100FH range.
Component Selection
Power-Supply Input (PVDD)
PVDD powers the speaker amplifier. PVDD ranges from
2.6V to 5.5V. Bypass PVDD with 0.1FF and 10FF capacitors to PGND. Apply additional bulk capacitance at the
device if long input traces between PVDD and the power
source are used.
Input Filtering
The input-coupling capacitor (CIN), in conjunction with
the amplifier’s internal input resistance (RIN), forms a
highpass filter that removes the DC bias from the incoming signal. These capacitors allow the amplifier to bias
the signal to an optimum DC level.
Assuming zero source impedance, CIN is:
CIN =

Layout and Grounding
Proper layout and grounding are essential for optimum
performance. Good grounding improves audio performance and prevents switching noise from coupling into
the audio signal.
Use wide, low-resistance output traces. As the load
impedance decreases, the current drawn from the
device increases. At higher current, the resistance of the
output traces decrease the power delivered to the load.
For example, if 2W is delivered from the device output to
a 4I load through 100mI of total speaker trace, 1.904W
is delivered to the speaker. If power is delivered through
10mI of total speaker trace, 1.99W is delivered to the
speaker. Wide output, supply, and ground traces also
improve the power dissipation of the device.
The IC is inherently designed for excellent RF immunity.
For best performance, add ground fills around all signal
traces on top or bottom PCB planes.
2π f −3dB × RIN
where f-3dB is the -3dB corner frequency and RIN is the
typical value as specified in the Electrical Characteristics
table. Use capacitors with adequately low-voltage coefficients for best low-frequency THD performance. Table 2
shows calculated capacitance values based on a 20Hz
highpass filter.
