1 W BTL audio amplifier with digital volume
control
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Each pulse on the UP/DOWN pin results in a change in
gain of 80/64 = 1.25 dB (typical value). In the basic
application the UP/DOWN pin is switched to ground or VP
by a double push-button. When the supply voltage is
initially connected, after a complete removal of the supply,
the initial state of the volume control is an attenuation of
40 dB (low volume), so the gain of the total amplifier is
−20 dB. After powering-up, some positive pulses have to
be applied to the UP/DOWN pin for turning up to listening
volume. When the device is switched with the MODE
select pin to the mute or the standby condition, the volume
control attenuation setting remains on its value, assumed
that the voltage on pin VP does not fall below the minimum
supply voltage. After switching the device back to the
operation mode, the previous volume setting is
maintained.
The TDA8551; TDA8551T is a 1 W BTL audio power
amplifier capable of delivering 1 W output power to an 8 Ω
load at THD = 10% using a 5 V power supply. The gain of
the amplifier can be set by the digital volume control. In the
maximum volume setting the gain is 20 dB. Using the
MODE pin the device can be switched to the standby
condition, the mute condition and the normal operating
condition. The device is protected by an internal thermal
shutdown protection mechanism.
Power amplifier
The power amplifier is a Bridge Tied Load (BTL) amplifier
with a complementary CMOS output stage. The total
voltage loss for both output power MOS transistors is
within 1 V and with a 5 V supply and an 8 Ω loudspeaker
an output power of 1 W can be delivered. The total gain of
this power amplifier is internally fixed at 20 dB.
Mode select pin
The device is in the standby mode (with a very low current
consumption) if the voltage at the MODE pin is between VP
and VP − 0.5 V. At a mode select voltage level of less than
0.5 V the amplifier is fully operational. In the range
between 1 V and VP − 1.4 V the amplifier is in the mute
condition. The mute condition is useful for using it as a ‘fast
mute’; in this mode output signal is suppressed, while the
volume setting remains at its value. It is advised to keep
the device in the mute condition while the input capacitor
is being charged. This can be done by holding the MODE
pin at a level of 0.5VP, or by waiting approximately 100 ms
before giving the first volume-UP pulses.
Volume control
The volume control operates as a digital controlled
attenuator between the audio input pin and the power
amplifier. In the maximum volume control setting the
attenuation is 0 dB and in the minimum volume control
setting the typical attenuation is 80 dB. The attenuation
can be set in 64 steps by the UP/DOWN pin.
This UP/DOWN pin is a trinary input:
• Floating UP/DOWN pin: volume remains unchanged
• Negative pulses: setting volume towards minimum
• Positive pulses: setting volume towards maximum.

Notes to the Characteristics
1. With a load connected at the outputs the quiescent current will increase, the maximum of this increase being equal
to the DC output offset voltage divided by RL.
2. The DC output voltage with respect to ground is approximately 0.5VP.
3. Output voltage in mute position is measured with an input of 1 V (RMS), including noise, in a bandwidth of 20 kHz.
4. Total gain setting at +20 dB.
5. The noise output voltage is measured at the output in a frequency band from 20 Hz to 20 kHz (unweighted), input
source impedance Rsource = 0 Ω.
6. Supply voltage ripple rejection is measured at the output, with a source impedance of Rsource = 0 Ω at the input.
The ripple voltage is a sine wave with frequency of 1 kHz and an amplitude of 100 mV (RMS) is applied to the positive
supply rail.

Fig.4 Test and application circuit.
The measured thermal resistance of the IC package is
highly dependent on the configuration and size of the
application board. Data may not be comparable between
different semiconductor manufacturers because the
application boards and test methods are not standardized
yet. In addition, the thermal performance of packages for a
specific application may be different than presented here,
because the configuration of the application boards
(copper area) may be different. NXP Semiconductors uses
FR-4 type application boards with 1 oz. copper traces with
solder coating. The measurements have been carried out
with vertical placed boards.
Reduction of the value of capacitor C2 results in a
decrease of the SVRR performance at low frequencies
(see Fig.9).
The UP/DOWN pin can be driven by a 3-state logic output
stage (microcontroller) without extra external components.
If the UP/DOWN pin is driven by push-buttons, then it is
advised to have an RC filter between the buttons and the
UP/DOWN pin. Advised values for the RC filter are 2.2 kΩ
and 100 nF.
The volume control circuit responds to the trailing edge of
the pulse on the volume pin; connecting to VP results in a
one step (1.25 dB) higher gain; connecting to ground
results in a one step lower gain.
To avoid audible plops while switching the supply voltage
on and off pin MODE has to be connected to VP (standby
condition) during charge or discharge of the input and
SVRR capacitors.

When a practical PCB layout is used with wider copper
tracks and some extra copper added both to the IC pin
connections and underneath the IC, the thermal resistance
from junction to ambient can be reduced. Without these
measures Rth j-a = 160 K/W for the SO8 package; see
Chapter “Thermal characteristics”. The power dissipation
can be calculated as follows:

For a maximum ambient temperature of 50 °C, VP = 5 V

SOLDERING
Several techniques exist for reflowing; for example,
thermal conduction by heated belt. Dwell times vary
between 50 and 300 seconds depending on heating
method. Typical reflow temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C.
Introduction
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC
packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when
through-hole and surface mounted components are mixed
on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is
not always suitable for surface mounted ICs, or for
printed-circuits with high population densities. In these
situations reflow soldering is often used.
Preheating is necessary to dry the paste and evaporate
the binding agent. Preheating duration: 45 minutes at
45 °C.
WAVE SOLDERING
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our “IC Package Databook” (order code 9398 652 90011).
Wave soldering techniques can be used for all SO
packages if the following conditions are observed:
• A double-wave (a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave) soldering
technique should be used.
DIP
SOLDERING BY DIPPING OR BY WAVE
• The longitudinal axis of the package footprint must be
parallel to the solder flow.
The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is
260 °C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact
with the joint for more than 5 seconds. The total contact
time of successive solder waves must not exceed
5 seconds.
• The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves at
the downstream end.
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but
the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the
specified maximum storage temperature (Tstg max). If the
printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling
may be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the
temperature within the permissible limit.
Maximum permissible solder temperature is 260 °C, and
maximum duration of package immersion in solder is
10 seconds, if cooled to less than 150 °C within
6 seconds. Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
REPAIRING SOLDERED JOINTS
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
Apply a low voltage soldering iron (less than 24 V) to the
lead(s) of the package, below the seating plane or not
more than 2 mm above it. If the temperature of the
soldering iron bit is less than 300 °C it may remain in
contact for up to 10 seconds. If the bit temperature is
between 300 and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.
REPAIRING SOLDERED JOINTS
Fix the component by first soldering two diagonallyopposite end leads. Use only a low voltage soldering iron
(less than 24 V) applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact
time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C. When
using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in
one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between
270 and 320 °C.
SO
REFLOW SOLDERING
Reflow soldering techniques are suitable for all SO
packages.
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
