8. Functional description
8.1 General
The TDA8950 is a two-channel audio power amplifier using class-D technology.
The audio input signal is converted into a digital pulse width modulated signal via an
analog input stage and PWM modulator, see Figure 1. To enable the output power
transistors to be driven, this digital PWM signal is applied to a control and handshake
block and driver circuits for both the high side and low side. In this way a level shift is
performed from the low power digital PWM signal (at logic levels) to a high power PWM
signal that switches between the main supply lines.
A 2nd-order low-pass filter converts the PWM signal to an analog audio signal across the
loudspeakers.

NXP Semiconductors
2 × 150 W class-D power amplifier
The TDA8950 one-chip class-D amplifier contains high power switches, drivers, timing
and handshaking between the power switches and some control logic. Also an advanced
protection strategy is implemented which contains several voltage protections,
temperature protections and a maximum current protection to secure maximum system
robustness.
The two audio channels of the TDA8950 each contain a PWM modulator, an analog
feedback loop and a differential input stage. It also contains circuits common to both
channels such as the oscillator, all reference sources, the mode interface and a digital
timing manager.
The TDA8950 contains two independent amplifier channels with high output power, high
efficiency, low distortion and low quiescent current. The amplifier channels can be
connected in the following configurations:
• Mono Bridge-Tied Load (BTL) amplifier
• Stereo Single-Ended (SE) amplifiers
The amplifier system can be switched to one of three operating modes by pin MODE:
• Standby mode; with a very low supply current
• Mute mode; the amplifiers are operational, but the audio signal at the output is
suppressed by disabling the VI-converter input stages
• Operating mode; the amplifiers are fully operational
To ensure pop noise-free start-up, the DC output offset voltage is applied gradually to the
output at a level between Mute mode and Operating mode levels. The bias current setting
of the VI converters is related to the voltage on pin MODE; in Mute mode the bias current
setting of the VI converters is zero (VI converters disabled) and in Operating mode the
bias current is at maximum. The time constant required to apply the DC output offset
voltage gradually between Mute and Operating mode levels can be generated via an
RC-network on pin MODE. An example of a switching circuit for driving pin MODE is
illustrated in Figure 4. If the capacitor C is left out of the application, the voltage on pin
MODE will be applied with a much smaller time-constant, which might result in audible
pop noises during start-up (depending on DC output offset voltage and loudspeaker
used).

In order to fully charge the coupling capacitors at the inputs, the amplifier will remain
automatically in the Mute mode before switching to the Operating mode. A complete

Upper diagram: When switching from standby to mute, there is a delay of approximately 100 ms
before the output starts switching. The audio signal is available after VMODE has been set to
operating, but not earlier than 150 ms after switching to mute. For pop noise-free start-up it is
recommended that the time constant applied to pin MODE is at least 350 ms for the transition
between mute and operating.
Lower diagram: When switching directly from standby to operating, there is a first delay of 100 ms
before the outputs starts switching. The audio signal is available after a second delay of 50 ms. For
pop noise-free start-up it is recommended that the time constant applied to pin MODE is at least
500 ms for the transition between standby and operating.

8.2 Pulse width modulation frequency
The output signal of the amplifier is a PWM signal with a carrier frequency that typically
lies between 300 kHz and 400 kHz. Using a 2nd-order LC demodulation filter in the
application results in an analog audio signal across the loudspeaker. The carrier
frequency is determined by an external resistor ROSC, connected between pin OSC and
pin VSSA. An optimal setting for the carrier frequency is between 300 kHz and 400 kHz.
Using an external resistor of 30 kΩ on pin OSC, the carrier frequency is set to 345 kHz.
For more details see Table 8.
If two or more class-D amplifiers are used in the same audio application, it is
recommended that all devices operate at the same switching frequency by using an
external clock circuit.
Due to an internal clock divider:
• The external applied clock frequency must have the double frequency of the output
PWM frequency.
• The duty cycle of the external clock is not critical for product performance.
8.3 Protections
The following protections are included in TDA8950:
• Thermal protections:
– Thermal FoldBack (TFB)
– OverTemperature Protection (OTP)
• OverCurrent Protection (OCP, diagnostic via pin PROT)
• Window Protection (WP)
• Supply voltage protections:
– UnderVoltage Protection (UVP)
– OverVoltage Protection (OVP)
– UnBalance Protection (UBP)
The reaction of the device to the different fault conditions differs per protection.
8.3.1 Thermal protection
In the TDA8950 an advanced thermal protection strategy is implemented. It consists of a
TFB function that gradually reduces the out put power within a certain temperature range.
When temperature is still rising an OTP is implemented which shuts down the device
completely.
8.3.1.1
Thermal FoldBack (TFB)
If the junction temperature Tj exceeds a defined threshold value, the gain is gradually
reduced. This will result in a smaller output signal and less dissipation. Eventually the
temperature will stabilize.

TFB is specified at the temperature value Tact(th_fold) where the closed loop voltage gain is
reduced with 6 dB. The range of the TFB is:
Tact(th_fold) − 5 °C < Tact(th_fold) < Tact(th_prot).
For the TDA8950 the value of Tact(th_fold) is about +153 °C. For more details see: Table 7.
8.3.1.2
OverTemperature Protection (OTP)
If, despite the TFB function, the junction temperature Tj of the TDA8950 continues rising
and exceeds the threshold Tact(th_prot) the amplifier will shutdown immediately. The
amplifier resumes switching approximately 100 ms after the temperature drops below
Tact(th_prot).
In Figure 6 the thermal behavior is visualized.

Behavior of TFB and OTP
8.3.2 OverCurrent Protection (OCP)
If a short-circuit is applied to one of the demodulated outputs of the amplifier, the OCP will
detect this. If the output current exceeds the maximum of 9.2 A, it is automatically limited
to its maximum value by the OCP protection circuit. The amplifier outputs remain
switching (the amplifier is NOT shut-down completely). If the active current limiting
continues longer than time τ, the TDA8950 shuts down. Activation of current limiting and
the triggering of the OCP are observed at pin PROT.
The amplifier can distinguish between an impedance drop of the loudspeaker and a
low-ohmic short-circuit across the load. In the TDA8950 the impedance threshold (Zth)
depends on the supply voltage used.
When a short-circuit is made across the load, causing the impedance to drop below the
threshold level (<Zth), the amplifier is switched off completely and, after a time of 100 ms,
it will try to restart. If the short-circuit condition is still present after this time, the cycle will
be repeated. The average dissipation will be low because of this low duty cycle.

2 × 150 W class-D power amplifier
Should there be an impedance drop (e.g. due to dynamic behavior of the loudspeaker) the
same protection will be activated. The maximum output current will again be limited to
9.2 A, but the amplifier will not switch-off completely (thus preventing audio holes from
occurring).
The result will be a clipping output signal.
See Section 13.7 for more information on this maximum output current limiting feature.
8.3.3 Window Protection (WP)
The WP checks the conditions at the output terminals of the power stage and is activated:
• During the start-up sequence, when pin MODE is switched from standby to mute. In
the event of a short-circuit at one of the output terminals to pin VDDPn or pin VSSPn
the start-up procedure is interrupted and the TDA8950 waits until the short-circuit to
the supply lines has been removed. Because the test is done before enabling the
power stages, no large currents will flow in an event of short-circuit.
• When the amplifier is completely shut-down due to activation of the OCP because a
short-circuit to one of the supply lines is made, then during restart (after 100 ms) the
WP will be activated. As a result the amplifier will not start-up until the short-circuit to
the supply lines is removed.
8.3.4 Supply voltage protections
If the supply voltage drops below minimum supply voltage, the UVP circuit is activated and
the system will shutdown correctly. If the internal clock is used, this switch-off will be silent
and without pop noise. When the supply voltage rises above the threshold level, the
system is restarted again after 100 ms.
If the supply voltage exceeds maximum supply voltage, the OVP circuit is activated and
the power stages will shutdown. When the supply voltage drops below the threshold level,
the system is restarted again after 100 ms.
An additional UBP circuit compares the positive analog (voltage on pin VDDA) and the
negative analog (voltage on pin VSSA) supply voltage and is triggered if the voltage
difference exceeds a factor of two.
When the supply voltage difference drops below the threshold level, the system is
restarted again after 100 ms.
Example: With a symmetrical supply of ±30 V, the protection circuit will be triggered if the
unbalance exceeds approximately 15 V. See Section 13.7.
In Table 4 an overview is given of all protections and their respective effects on the output
signal.

Only complete shutdown of amplifier if short-circuit impedance is below threshold of 1 Ω. In all other cases
current limiting results in clipping of the output signal.

Fault condition detected during (every) transition between standby-to-mute and during restart after
activation of OCP (short-circuit to one of the supply lines).
8.4 Differential audio inputs
For a high common mode rejection ratio and a maximum of flexibility in the application, the
audio inputs are fully differential.
There are two possibilities:
• For stereo operation it is advised to use the inputs in anti phase and also to connect
the speakers in anti phase (to avoid acoustical phase differences). This construction
has several advantages:
– The peak current in the power supply is minimized
– The supply pumping effect is minimized, especially at low audio frequencies
• For mono BTL operation it is required that the inputs are connected in anti parallel.
The output of one of the channels is inverted and the speaker load is now connected
between the two outputs of the TDA8950. In principle the output power to the speaker
can be significantly boosted to two times the output power in single ended stereo.
The input configuration for a mono BTL application is illustrated in Figure 7.

The transition between Standby and Mute mode has hysteresis, while the slope of the transition between Mute and Operating mode is
determined by the time-constant of the RC-network on pin MODE; see Figure 8.
[4]
DC output offset voltage is gradually applied to the output during the transition between the Mute and Operating modes. The slope
caused by any DC output offset is determined by the time-constant of the RC-network on pin MODE.

At a junction temperature of approximately Tact(th_fold) − 5 °C the gain reduction will commence and at a junction temperature of
approximately Tact(th_prot) the amplifier switches off.

13. Application information
13.1 Mono BTL application
When using the power amplifier in a mono BTL application the inputs of both channels
must be connected in parallel and the phase of one of the inputs must be inverted (see
Figure 7). In principle the loudspeaker can be connected between the outputs of the two
single-ended demodulation filters.
13.2 Pin MODE
For pop noise-free start-up, an RC time-constant must be applied on pin MODE. The
bias-current setting of the VI-converter input is directly related to the voltage on pin
MODE. In turn the bias-current setting of the VI converters is directly related to the DC
output offset voltage. Thus a slow dV/dt on pin MODE results in a slow dV/dt for the
DC output offset voltage, resulting in pop noise-free start-up. A time-constant of 500 ms is
sufficient to guarantee pop noise-free start-up (see also Figure 4, 5 and 8).

through the load and the ripple current. The value of the ripple current is dependent on the
coil inductance and voltage drop over the coil.
13.4 External clock
For duty cycle independent operation of the device, the external clock input frequency is
internally divided by two. This implies that the frequency of the external clock is as twice
as high as the internal clock (typical 2 × 345 kHz = 690 kHz).
If two or more class-D amplifiers are used it is recommended that all devices run at the
same switching frequency. This can be realized by connecting all OCS pins together and
feeding them from an external oscillator. When applying an external oscillator, it is
necessary to force pin OSC to a DC level above SGND. The internal oscillator is disabled
and the PWM modulator will switch with half the externally applied frequency.
The internal oscillator requires an external resistor Rext(OSC) and capacitor COSC between
pin OSC and PIN VSSA.
The noise contribution of the internal oscillator is supply voltage dependent. An external
low noise oscillator is recommended for low noise applications running at high supply
voltage.

13.5 Noise
Noise should be measured using a high order low-pass filter with a cut-off frequency of
20 kHz. The standard audio band pass filters, used in audio analyzers, do not suppress
the residue of the carrier frequency sufficiently to ensure a reliable measurement of the
audible noise. Noise measurements should preferably be carried out using AES 17
(‘brickwall’) filters or an audio precision AUX 0025 filter, which was designed specifically
for measuring class-D switching amplifiers.
13.6 Heatsink requirements
In many applications it may be necessary to connect an external heatsink to the
TDA8950.
Equation 5 shows the relationship between the maximum power dissipation, before
activation of the TFB, and the total thermal resistance from junction to ambient
T j – T amb

Power dissipation (Pdiss) is determined by the efficiency of the TDA8950. The efficiency
measured as a function of output power is given in Figure 21. The power dissipation can
be derived as a function of output power (Figure 20).

TDA8950
NXP Semiconductors
2 × 150 W class-D power amplifier
The audio signal has a crest factor of 10 (the ratio between peak power and average
power (20 dB)), this means that the average output power is 1⁄10 of the peak power.
In this case, the peak RMS output power level would be the 0.5 % THD level, i.e. 220 W.
The average power would then be 1⁄10 × 220 W = 22 W.
The dissipated power at an output power of 22 W is approximately 5 W.
When the maximum expected ambient temperature is 85 °C, the total Rth(j-a) would then
( 140 – 85 )
become ------------------------- = 11 K/W
5
Rth(j-a) = Rth(j-c) + Rth(c-h) + Rth(h-a)
Rth(j-c) = 1.1 K/W
Rth(c-h) = 0.5 K/W to 1 K/W (dependent on mounting)
So the thermal resistance between heatsink and ambient temperature is:
Rth(h-a) = 11 − (1.1 + 1) = 8.9 K/W
The de-rating curves (given for several values of Rth(j-a)) are illustrated in Figure 9. A
maximum junction temperature Tj = 150 °C is taken into account. From Figure 9 the
maximum allowable power dissipation for a given heatsink size can be derived or the
required heatsink size can be determined at a required dissipation level.
13.7 Output current limiting
To guarantee the robustness of the TDA8950, the maximum output current that can be
delivered by the output stage is limited. An advanced OverCurrent Protection (OCP) is
included for each output power switch.
When the current flowing through any of the power switches exceeds the defined internal
threshold current of 9.2 A (e.g. in case of a short-circuit to the supply lines or a
short-circuit across the load), the maximum output current of the amplifier will be
regulated to 9.2 A.
The TDA8950 amplifier can distinguish between a low-ohmic short-circuit condition and
other over current conditions like dynamic impedance drops of the loudspeakers used.
The impedance threshold (Zth) depends on the supply voltage used.
Depending on the impedance of the short-circuit, the amplifier will react as follows:
• Short-circuit impedance > Zth: The maximum output current of the amplifier is
regulated to 9.2 A, but the amplifier will not shut-down its PWM outputs. Effectively
this results in a clipping output signal across the load (behavior is very similar to
voltage clipping).
• Short-circuit impedance < Zth: The amplifier will limit the maximum output current to
9.2 A and at the same time the capacitor on pin PROT is discharged. When the
voltage across this capacitor drops below an internal threshold voltage, the amplifier
will shutdown completely and an internal timer will be started.
A typical value for the capacitor on pin PROT is 220 pF. After a fixed time of 100 ms the
amplifier is switched on again. If the requested output current is still too high, the amplifier
will switch-off again. Thus the amplifier will try to switch to the Operating mode every

2 × 150 W class-D power amplifier
100 ms. The average dissipation will be low in this situation because of this low duty cycle.
If the over current condition is removed the amplifier will remain in Operating mode after
being restarted. In this way the TDA8950 amplifier is fully protected against short-circuit
conditions while at the same time so-called audio holes, as a result of loudspeaker
impedance drops, are eliminated.
13.8 Pumping effects
In a typical stereo half-bridge SE application the TDA8950 is supplied by a symmetrical
voltage (e.g. VDD = +35 V and VSS = −35 V). When the amplifier is used in an SE
configuration, a ‘pumping effect’ can occur. During one switching interval, energy is taken
from one supply (e.g. VDD), while a part of that energy is returned to the other supply line
(e.g. VSS) and vice versa. When the voltage supply source cannot sink energy, the voltage
across the output capacitors of that voltage supply source will increase and the supply
voltage is pumped to higher levels. The voltage increase caused by the pumping effect
depends on:
•
•
•
•
•
Speaker impedance
Supply voltage
Audio signal frequency
Value of decoupling capacitors on supply lines
Source and sink currents of other channels
When applying the TDA8950, measures must be taken within the application to minimize
the pumping effect and prevent malfunctions of either the audio amplifier and/or the
voltage supply source. Amplifier malfunction due to the pumping effect can cause
triggering of the UVP, OVP or UBP.
The best remedy against pumping effects is to use the TDA8950 in a mono full-bridge
application or, in the case of stereo half-bridge applications, adapt the power supply (e.g.
increase supply decoupling capacitors).
13.9 Application schematics
Notes for the application schematic:
• A solid ground plane connected to VSS around the switching amplifier is necessary to
prevent emission.
• 100 nF capacitors must be placed as close as possible to the power supply pins of the
TDA8950.
• The internal heat spreader of the TDA8950 is internally connected to VSS.
• The external heatsink must be connected to the ground plane.
• Use a thermally conductive, electrically non-conductive, Sil-Pad between the backside
of the TDA8950 and a small external heatsink.
• The differential inputs enable the best system level audio performance with
unbalanced signal sources. In case of hum, due to floating inputs, connect the
shielding or source ground to the amplifier ground. Jumpers J1 and J2 are open on
set level and are closed on the stand-alone demo board.
• Minimum total required capacitance per power supply line is 3300 µF.

13.10 Layout and grounding
To obtain a high-level system performance, certain grounding techniques are essential.
The input reference grounds have to be tied with their respective source grounds and
must have separate tracks from the power ground tracks. This will prevent the large
(output) signal currents from interfering with the small AC input signals. The small-signal
ground tracks should be physically located as far as possible from the power ground
tracks. Supply and output tracks should be as wide as possible for delivering maximum
output power.

15. Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”.
15.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
15.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:
• Through-hole components
• Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages
Package placement
Inspection and repair
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering
15.3 Wave soldering
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:
• Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
• Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities

15.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 31) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
• Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
• Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 11 and 12

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all
times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 31.
