FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
•
•
•
•
The LME49810 is a high fidelity audio power amplifier
driver designed for demanding consumer and proaudio applications. Amplifier output power may be
scaled by changing the supply voltage and number of
power transistors. The LME49810’s minimum output
current is 50mA. When using a discrete output stage
the LME49810 is capable of delivering in excess of
300 watts into a single-ended 8Ω load.

•
Wide operating voltage range: ±20V to ±100V
Slew Rate: 50V/μs (Typ)
Output Drive Current: 60mA (Typ)
PSRR (f = DC): 110dB (Typ)
THD+N (f = 1kHz): 0.0007 (Typ)
Unique to the LME49810 is an internal Baker Clamp.
This clamp insures that the amplifier output does not
saturate when over driven. The resultant “soft
clipping” of high level audio signals suppresses
undesirable audio artifacts generated when
conventional solid state amplifiers are driven hard into
clipping.
The LME49810 includes thermal shutdown circuitry
that activates when the die temperature exceeds
150°C. The LME49810’s mute function, when
activated, mutes the input drive signal and forces the
amplifier output to a quiescent state.

All voltages are measured with respect to the GND pin unless otherwise specified.
Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for
which the device is functional but do not ensure specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC and AC electrical
specifications under particular test conditions which ensure specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the
Operating Ratings. Specifications are not for parameters where no limit is given, however, the typical value is a good indication of device
performance.
If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and
specifications.
The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJMAX, θJC, and the ambient temperature,
TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation is PDMAX = (TJMAX - TA) / θJC or the number given in Absolute Maximum Ratings,
whichever is lower. For the LME49810, TJMAX = 150°C and the typical θJC is 4°C/W.
Human body model, 100pF discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor.
Machine Model, 220pF - 240pF discharged through all pins.
The maximum operating junction temperature is 150°C.

MUTE FUNCTION
The mute function of the LME49810 is controlled by the amount of current that flows into the MUTE pin.
LME49810 typically requires 50μA to 100μA of mute current flowing in order to be in “play” mode. This can be
done by connecting a reference voltage (VMUTE) to the MUTE pin through a resistor (RM). The following formula
can be used to calculate the mute current.
IMUTE = (VMUTE-0.7V) / (RM+10kΩ) (A)
(1)
The 10kΩ resistor value in Equation (1) is internal. Please refer to Figure 3, LME49810 Simplified Schematic, for
additional details. For example, if a 5V voltage is connected through a 33kΩ resistor to the MUTE pin, then the
mute current will be 100μA, according to Equation (1). Consequently, RM can be changed to suit any other
reference voltage requirement. The LME49810 will enter Mute mode if IMUTE is less than 1μA which can be
accomplished by shorting the MUTE pin to ground or by floating the MUTE pin. It is not recommended that more
than 200μA flow into the MUTE pin because damage to LME49810 may occur and device may not function
properly.
BAKER CLAMP AND CLAMP FLAG OUTPUT
The LME49810 features a Baker Clamp function with corresponding CLPFLAG output pin. The clamp function
keeps all transistors in linear operation when the output goes into clipping. In addition, when the output goes into
clipping, a logic low level appears at the CLPFLAG pin. The CLPFLGAG pin can be used to drive an LED or
some other visual display as shown by Figure 1. The value of logic low voltage varies and depends on IFLAG. For
example, if IFLAG is 4.7mA then a voltage (VBC) of 0.4V will appear at the CLPFLAG output pin. The smooth
response of the Baker Clamp and the corresponding CLPFLAG logic output is shown in the scope photo below:
+VCC = -VEE = 100V,
VIN = 4VRMS,
fIN = 1kHz,
RC = 1kΩ Ch1: Output,
Ch2: CLPFLAG Output
Figure 34.
The CLPFLAG pin can source up to 10mA, and since the CLPFLAG output is an open collector output as shown
by Figure 3, LME49810 Simplified Schematic, it should never be left to float under normal operation. If CLPFLAG
pin is not used, then it should be connected through a resistor to a reference voltage so that IFLAG is below
10mA. For example, a resistor of 1k can be used with a 5V reference voltage. This will give the IFLAG of 4.7mA. In
a typical LED setup, if +5V reference voltage is not available, the following circuit using a Zener diode can be
used to power the CLPFLAG pin from the higher supply voltage rails of the LME49810. The power dissipation
rating of RZ will need to be at-least ½W if using a 5V Zener Diode. Alternately, the following basic formula can be
used to find the proper power rating of RZ : PDZ = (VCC - VZ)2/RZ (W). This formula can also be used to meet the
design requirements of any other reference voltage that the user desires.

THERMAL PROTECTION
The LME49810 has a thermal protection scheme to prevent long-term thermal stress of the device. When the
temperature on the die exceeds 150°C, the LME49810 goes into thermal shutdown. The LME49810 starts
operating again when the die temperature drops to about 145°C, but if the temperature again begins to rise,
shutdown will occur again above 150°C. Therefore, the device is allowed to heat up to a relatively high
temperature if the fault condition is temporary, but a sustained fault will cause the device to cycle between the
thermal shutdown temperature limits of 150°C and 145°C. This greatly reduces the stress imposed on the IC by
thermal cycling, which in turn improves its reliability under sustained fault conditions. Since the die temperature is
directly dependent upon the heat sink used, the heat sink should be chosen so that thermal shutdown is not
activated during normal operation. Using the best heat sink possible within the cost and space constraints of the
system will improve the long-term reliability of any power semiconductor device, as discussed in the
DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK section.
POWER DISSIPATION
When in “play” mode, the LME49810 draws a constant amount of current, regardless of the input signal
amplitude. Consequently, the power dissipation is constant for a given supply voltage and can be computed with
the equation PDMAX = ICC * (VCC – VEE). For a quick calculation of PDMAX, approximate the current to be 11mA
and multiply it by the total supply voltage (the current varies slightly from this value over the operating range).
DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK
The choice of a heat sink for a high-power audio amplifier is made entirely to keep the die temperature at a level
such that the thermal protection circuitry is not activated under normal circumstances.
The thermal resistance from the die to the outside air, θJA (junction to ambient), is a combination of three thermal
resistances, θJC (junction to case), θCS (case to sink), and θSA (sink to ambient). The thermal resistance, θJC
(junction to case), of the LME49810 is 4°C/W. Using Thermalloy Thermacote thermal compound, the thermal
resistance, θCS (case to sink), is about 0.2°C/W. Since convection heat flow (power dissipation) is analogous to
current flow, thermal resistance is analogous to electrical resistance, and temperature drops are analogous to
voltage drops, the power dissipation out of the LME49810 is equal to the following:
PDMAX = (TJMAX−TAMB) / θJA
where

TJMAX = 150°C

Once the maximum package power dissipation has been calculated using Equation (2), the maximum thermal
resistance, θSA, (heat sink to ambient) in °C/W for a heat sink can be calculated. This calculation is made using
Equation (3) which is derived by solving for θSA from Equation (2).
θSA = [(TJMAX−TAMB)−PDMAX(θJC +θCS)] / PDMAX
(3)
Again it must be noted that the value of θSA is dependent upon the system designer's amplifier requirements. If
the ambient temperature that the audio amplifier is to be working under is higher than 25°C, then the thermal
resistance for the heat sink, given all other things are equal, will need to be smaller.
PROPER SELECTION OF EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Proper selection of external components is required to meet the design targets of an application. The choice of
external component values that will affect gain and low frequency response are discussed below.
The overall gain of the amplifier is set by resistors RF and Ri for the non-inverting configuration shown in
Figure 1. The gain is found by Equation (4) below given Ri = RIN and RF = RS.
AV = RF / Ri (V/V)
(4)
For best Noise performance, lower values of resistors are used. A value of 243 is commonly used for Ri and
setting the value for RF for desired gain. For the LME49810 the gain should be set no lower than 10V/V. Gain
settings below 10V/V may experience instability.
The combination of Ri and Ci (see Figure 1) creates a high pass filter. The gain at low frequency and therefore
the response is determined by these components. The -3dB point can be determined from Equation (5) shown
below:
fi = 1 / (2πRiCi) (Hz)
(5)
If an input coupling capacitor (CIN) is used to block DC from the inputs as shown in Figure 1, there will be
another high pass filter created with the combination of CIN and RIN. The resulting -3dB frequency response due
to the combination of CIN and RIN can be found from Equation (6) shown below:
fIN = 1 / (2πRINCIN) (Hz)
(6)
For best audio performance, the input capacitor should not be used. Without the input capacitor, any DC bias
from the source will be transferred to the load. The feedback capacitor (Ci) is used to set the gain at DC to unity.
Because a large value is required for a low frequency -3dB point, the capacitor is an electrolytic type. An
additional small value, high quality film capacitor may be used in parallel with the feedback resistor to improve
high frequency sonic performance. If DC offset in the output stage is acceptable without the feedback capacitor,
it may be removed but DC gain will now be equal to AC gain.
COMPENSATION CAPACITOR
The compensation capacitor (CC) is one of the most critical external components in value, placement and type.
The capacitor should be placed close to the LME49810 and a silver mica type will give good performance. The
value of the capacitor will affect slew rate and stability. The highest slew rate is possible while also maintaining
stability through out the power and frequency range of operation results in the best audio performance. The value
shown in Figure 1 should be considered a starting value with optimization done on the bench and in listening
testing. Please refer to Slew Rate vs. CC Graph in TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS for
determining the proper slew rate for your particular application.
SUPPLY BYPASSING
The LME49810 has excellent power supply rejection and does not require a regulated supply. However, to
eliminate possible oscillations all op amps and power op amps should have their supply leads bypassed with lowinductance capacitors having short leads and located close to the package terminals. Inadequate power supply
bypassing will manifest itself by a low frequency oscillation known as “motorboating” or by high frequency
instabilities. These instabilities can be eliminated through multiple bypassing utilizing a large electrolytic capacitor
(10μF or larger) which is used to absorb low frequency variations and a small ceramic capacitor (0.1μF) to
prevent any high frequency feedback through the power supply lines. If adequate bypassing is not provided the
current in the supply leads which is a rectified component of the load current may be fed back into internal
circuitry. This signal causes low distortion at high frequencies requiring that the supplies be bypassed at the
package terminals with an electrolytic capacitor of 470μF or more.

OUTPUT STAGE USING BIPOLAR TRANSISTORS
With a properly designed output stage and supply voltage of ±100V, an output power up to 500W can be
generated at 0.05% THD+N into an 8Ω speaker load. With an output current of several amperes, the output
transistors need substantial base current drive because power transistors usually have quite low current
gain—typical hfe of 50 or so. To increase the current gain, audio amplifiers commonly use Darlington style
devices. Power transistors should be mounted together with the VBE multiplier transistor on the same heat sink to
avoid thermal run away. Please see the section BIASING TECHNIQUES AND AVOIDING THERMAL
RUNAWAY for additional information.
BIASING TECHNIQUES AND AVOIDING THERMAL RUNAWAY
A class AB amplifier has some amount of distortion called Crossover distortion. To effectively minimize the
crossover distortion from the output, a VBE multiplier may be used instead of two biasing diodes. The LME49810
has two dedicated pins (BIASM and BIASP) for Bias setup and provide a constant current source of about 2.8mA.
A VBE multiplier normally consists of a bipolar transistor (QMULT, see Figure 1) and two resistors (RB1 and RB2,
see Figure 1). A trim pot can also be added in series with RB1 for optional bias adjustment. A properly designed
output stage, combine with a VBE multiplier, can eliminate the trim pot and virtually eliminate crossover distortion.
The VCE voltage of QMULT (also called BIAS of the output stage) can be set by following formula:
VBIAS = VBE(1+RB2/RB1) (V)
(7)
When using a bipolar output stage with the LME49810 (as in Figure 1), the designer must beware of thermal
runaway. Thermal runaway is a result of the temperature dependence of VBE (an inherent property of the
transistor). As temperature increases, VBE decreases. In practice, current flowing through a bipolar transistor
heats up the transistor, which lowers the VBE. This in turn increases the current gain, and the cycle repeats. If the
system is not designed properly this positive feedback mechanism can destroy the bipolar transistors used in the
output stage. One of the recommended methods of preventing thermal runaway is to use the same heat sink on
the bipolar output stage transistor together with VBE multiplier transistor. When the VBE multiplier transistor is
mounted to the same heat sink as the bipolar output stage transistors, it temperature will track that of the output
transistors. Its VBE is dependent upon temperature as well, and so it will draw more current as the output
transistors heat up, reducing the bias voltage to compensate. This will limit the base current into the output
transistors, which counteracts thermal runaway. Another widely popular method of preventing thermal runaway is
to use low value emitter degeneration resistors (RE1 and RE2). As current increases, the voltage at the emitter
also increases, which decreases the voltage across the base and emitter. This mechanism helps to limit the
current and counteracts thermal runaway.
LAYOUT CONSIDERATION AND AVOIDING GROUND LOOPS
A proper layout is virtually essential for a high performance audio amplifier. It is very important to return the load
ground, supply grounds of output transistors, and the low level (feedback and input) grounds to the circuit board
common ground point through separate paths. When ground is routed in this fashion, it is called a star ground or
a single point ground. It is advisable to keep the supply decoupling capacitors of 0.1μF close as possible to
LME49810 to reduce the effects of PCB trace resistance and inductance. Following the general rules will
optimize the PCB layout and avoid ground loops problems:
a. Make use of symmetrical placement of components.
b. Make high current traces, such as output path traces, as wide as possible to accomodate output stage
current requirement.
c. To reduce the PCB trace resistance and inductance, same ground returns paths should be as short as
possible. If possible, make the output traces short and equal in length.
d. To reduce the PCB trace resistance and inductance, ground returns paths should be as short as possible.
e. If possible, star ground or a single point ground should be observed. Advanced planning before starting the
PCB can improve audio performance.
