DESCRIPTION
The TPA0252 is a stereo audio power amplifier in a 24-pin TSSOP thermally-enhanced package capable of
delivering 2.8 W of continuous RMS power per channel into 3-Ω loads. This device minimizes the number of
external components needed, which simplifies the design and frees up board space for other features. When
driving 1 W into 8-Ω speakers, the TPA0252 has less than 0.3% THD+N across its specified frequency range.
The integrated depop circuitry virtually eliminates transients that cause noise in the speakers.
Amplifier gain is controlled by two terminals, UP and DOWN. There are 31 discrete steps covering the range of
20 dB (maximum volume setting) to –40 dB (minimum volume setting) in 2 dB steps. By pressing either button
momentarily, the volume steps up or down 2 dB. If a button is held down, the device starts stepping through
volume settings at a rate determined by the capacitor on the CLK terminal.
An internal input MUX, controlled by the HP/LINE pin, allows two sets of stereo inputs to the amplifier. In
notebook applications, where internal speakers are driven as bridge-tied loads (BTL) and the line outputs (often
headphone drive) are required to be single-ended (SE), the TPA0252 automatically switches into SE mode when
the SE/BTL input is activated. This effectively reduces the gain by 6 dB.
The TPA0252 includes a VAUX terminal that is used to power the volume-setting registers when the device is in
SHUTDOWN, and even if the main VDD power supply is removed. As long as the VAUX terminal is held above 3
V, the registers are maintained. If the VAUX terminal is allowed to go below 3 V, then the data in the registers is
lost, and the default gain of –10 dB is loaded into the registers.
The TPA0252 consumes only 9 mA of supply current during normal operation. A miserly shutdown mode
reduces the supply current to 150 µA.
The PowerPAD™ package (PWP) delivers a level of thermal performance that was previously achievable only in
TO-220-type packages. Thermal impedances of approximately 35°C/W are truly realized in multilayer PCB
applications. This allows the TPA0252 to operate at full power into 8-Ω loads at ambient temperatures of 85°C.

Changing Volume When Using the Internal Clock
If using the internal clock, the maximum clock frequency is 500 Hz and the recommended frequency is 100 Hz
using a 47-nF capacitor. Use Equation 1 to calculate the clock frequency if using a capacitor to generate the
clock.
f

(1)
When the desired volume-control signal is pulled low for four clock cycles, the volume increments by one step,
followed by a short delay. This delay decreases the longer the line is held low, eventually reaching a delay of
zero. The delay allows the user to pull the UP or DOWN terminal low once for one volume change, or hold down
to ramp several volume changes. The delay is optimally configured for push button volume control.
Holding either UP or DOWN low continuously causes the volume to change at an exponentially increasing rate.
When fCLK = 100 Hz, the first change in the volume occurs approximately 40 ms after either pin is initially pulled
low. If the pin stays low for approximately 400 more ms, the volume changes again. The next change occurs 200
ms after this change. The fourth change occurs 120 ms after the third change. The fifth volume change occurs
80 ms after the fourth change. Thereafter, the volume changes at 1/4 the rate of the clock (every 40 ms).
Each cycle is registered on the rising clock edge and the volume is changed after the rising edge.
Figure 32 shows increasing volume using UP, however, the volume is decreased using DOWN with the same
timing.

Changing Volume When Using the External Clock (Microprocessor Mode)
The user may remove the capacitor and run the external clock directly into the clock pin to override the internal
clock generator. The maximum clock frequency is 10 kHz if using an external clock; however, a clock frequency
less than 200 Hz is recommended in normal operation so the gain does not change too quickly causing a pop at
the output. A 5-V, 50% duty-cycle clock must be used because the trip levels are 0.5 V and 4.5 V. The
recommended way to adjust the volume is to use a gated clock and hold UP or DOWN low and cycle the clock
pin four times to adjust the volume. The volume change is clocked in at the rising edge, so CLK should be held
low when not changing volume. No delay is added when using an external clock, so it is very important to input
only four clock cycles per volume change. Additional clock cycles per volume change are added to the next
volume change. For example, if five clock cycles are input while UP is held low the first volume change, the
volume change occurs after the third clock cycle the next time UP is held low. The figure below shows how
volume increases with UP when an external clock is used. The sample and hold times for UP and DOWN are
100 ns. The same timing applies if using an external clock and decreasing the volume with DOWN.

VAUX
VAUX is used to keep power to the volume control memory. As long as the voltage at the VAUX pin is greater
than 3 V, the device remembers what volume setting it was in, even when shut-down or powered down. The
amplifier then returns to that volume setting after being powered up. If VAUX is pulled low, the device resets to a
volume setting of -10 dB in BTL and -16 dB in SE mode. If VAUX is pulled below ground, the device could be
damaged. Even if VAUX is connected to just one voltage, it must be connected through a diode so VAUX is not
pulled below ground. The recommended circuit to keep VAUX high when power down is shown below.
To ensure proper operation, the VAUX voltage must not drop below 1.5 V. If the voltage falls below 1.5 V, the
stability of the TPA0252 could be compromised. However, this does not damage the device; normal functionality
resumes once the VAUX voltage is at or above 1.5 V.

Figure 34. Recommended System VAUX Circuit
The diodes in Figure 34 need to have a low threshold voltage and low leakage current. This circuit allows VAUX
to remain high even when VDD and system VAUX are removed. The formula for calculating how long the volume is
remembered if VDD and system VAUX is removed or pulled low is shown below. The diode used in the example
has a forward voltage, VF of 0.7 V and 25 nA of leakage current, IR.
• tdecay = CVAUX× ((VDD or system VAUX) - VF - VAUXmin) / (2 × IR + IDD(VAUX))
• tdecay = 0.47 µF × (5V - 0.7 V - 3V)/(25 nA × 2 + 0.7 nA)
• tdecay = 12 seconds
INPUT RESISTANCE
The gain is set by varying the input resistance of the amplifier, which can range from its smallest value to over
six times that value. As a result, if a single capacitor is used in the input high pass filter, the –3 dB or cut-off
frequency also changes by over six times. Connecting an additional resistor from the input pin of the amplifier to
ground, as shown in Figure 35, reduces the cutoff-frequency variation.

To increase filter accuracy, increase the value of the capacitor and decrease the value of the resistor to ground.
In addition, the order of the filter can be increased.
Input Capacitor, Ci
In the typical application an input capacitor, Ci, is required to allow the amplifier to bias the input signal to the
proper dc level for optimum operation. In this case, Ci and the input impedance of the amplifier, Zi, form a
high-pass filter with the corner frequency determined in Equation 3.

The value of Ci is important to consider as it directly affects the bass (low frequency) performance of the circuit.

In this example, Ci is 0.27 µF, so one would likely choose a value in the range of 0.27 µF to 1 µF. A further
consideration for this capacitor is the leakage path from the input source through the input network (Ci) and the
feedback network to the load. This leakage current creates a dc offset voltage at the input to the amplifier that
reduces useful headroom, especially in high gain applications. For this reason a low-leakage tantalum or ceramic
capacitor is the best choice. When polarized capacitors are used, the positive side of the capacitor faces the
amplifier input in most applications as the dc level there is held at VDD/2, which is likely higher than the source dc
level. Note that it is important to confirm the capacitor polarity in the application.

POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING, C(S)
This high-performance CMOS audio amplifier requires adequate power-supply decoupling to minimize output
total harmonic distortion (THD). Power-supply decoupling also prevents oscillations with long lead lengths
between the amplifier and the speaker. Optimum decoupling is achieved by using two capacitors of different
types that target different types of noise on the power-supply leads. To filter high-frequency transients, spikes, or
digital hash on the line, a good low equivalent-series-resistance (ESR) ceramic capacitor, typically 0.1 µF, placed
as close as possible to the device VDD lead, works best. For filtering low-frequency noise signals, an aluminum
electrolytic capacitor of 10 µF or greater placed near the audio power amplifier is recommended.
MIDRAIL BYPASS CAPACITOR, C(BYP)
The midrail bypass capacitor, C(BYP), is the most critical capacitor and serves several important functions. During
startup or recovery from shutdown mode, C(BYP) determines the rate at which the amplifier starts up. The second
function is to reduce power-supply noise coupling into the output drive signal. This noise is from the midrail
generation circuit internal to the amplifier, and appears as degraded PSRR and THD+N.
Bypass capacitor (C(BYP)) values of 0.47-µF to 1-µF, and ceramic or tantalum low-ESR capacitors are
recommended for best THD and noise performance.
OUTPUT COUPLING CAPACITOR, C(C)
In a typical single-supply SE configuration, an output coupling capacitor (C(C)) is required to block the dc bias at
the output of the amplifier to prevent dc currents in the load. As with the input coupling capacitor, the output
coupling capacitor and impedance of the load form a high-pass filter governed by Equation 5.

The main disadvantage, from a performance standpoint, is that load impedances are typically small, driving the
low-frequency corner higher, degrading the bass response. Large values of C(C) are required to pass low
frequencies into the load. Consider the example where a C(C) of 330 µF is chosen and loads include 3 Ω, 4 Ω, 8
Ω, 32 Ω, 10 kΩ, and 47 kΩ. Table 1 summarizes the frequency response characteristics of each configuration.

As Table 1 indicates, most of the bass response is attenuated into a 4-Ω load, an 8-Ω load is adequate,
headphone response is good, and drive into line level inputs (a home stereo for example) is exceptional.
USING LOW-ESR CAPACITORS
Low-ESR capacitors are recommended throughout this applications section. A real (as opposed to ideal)
capacitor can be modeled simply as a resistor in series with an ideal capacitor. The voltage drop across this
resistor minimizes the beneficial effects of the capacitor in the circuit. The lower the equivalent value of this
resistance the more the real capacitor behaves like an ideal capacitor.
BRIDGED-TIED LOAD VS SINGLE-ENDED MODE
Figure 36 shows a Class-AB audio power amplifier (APA) in a BTL configuration. The TPA0252 amplifier consists
of two Class-AB amplifiers driving both ends of the load. There are several potential benefits to this differential
drive configuration, but, initially consider power to the load. The differential drive to the speaker means that as
one side is slewing up, the other side is slewing down, and vice versa. This in effect doubles the voltage swing
on the load as compared to a ground referenced load. Substituting 2 × VO(PP) into the power equation, where
voltage is squared, yields 4× the output power from the same supply rail and load impedance (see Equation 6).

Figure 36. Bridge-Tied Load Configuration
In a typical computer sound channel operating at 5 V, bridging raises the power into an 8-Ω speaker from a
singled-ended (SE, ground reference) limit of 250 mW to 1 W. In sound power, this is a 6-dB improvement —
loudness that can be heard. In addition to increased power there are frequency-response concerns. Consider the
single-supply SE configuration shown in Figure 37. A coupling capacitor is required to block the dc offset voltage
from reaching the load. These capacitors can be quite large (approximately 33 µF to 1000 µF), so they tend to be
expensive, heavy, occupy valuable PCB area, and have the additional drawback of limiting the low-frequency
performance of the system. This frequency-limiting effect is due to the high-pass filter network created with the
speaker impedance and the coupling capacitance, and is calculated with Equation 7.

For example, a 68-µF capacitor with an 8-Ω speaker would attenuate low frequencies below 293 Hz. The BTL
configuration cancels the dc offsets, eliminating the need for blocking capacitors. Low-frequency performance is
then limited only by the input network and speaker response. Cost and PCB space are also minimized by
eliminating the bulky coupling capacitor.

Figure 37. Single-Ended Configuration and Frequency Response
Increasing power to the load does carry a penalty of increased internal power dissipation. The increased
dissipation is understandable, since the BTL configuration produces 4× the output power of the SE configuration.
Internal dissipation versus output power is discussed further in the Crest Factor and Thermal Considerations
section.
Single-Ended Operation
In SE mode (see Figure 37), the load is driven from the primary amplifier output for each channel (LOUT+ and
ROUT+).
The amplifier switches to single-ended operation when the SE/BTL terminal is held high. This puts the negative
outputs in a high-impedance state, and reduces the amplifier's gain by 6 dB.
BTL AMPLIFIER EFFICIENCY
Class-AB amplifiers are inefficient, primarily because of voltage drop across the output-stage transistors. The two
components of the internal voltage drop are the headroom or dc voltage drop that varies inversely to output
power, and the sine wave nature of the output. The total voltage drop can be calculated by subtracting the RMS
value of the output voltage from VDD. The internal voltage drop multiplied by the RMS value of the supply current
(IDDrms) determines the internal power dissipation of the amplifier.
An easy-to-use equation to calculate efficiency begins as the ratio of power from the power supply to the power
delivered to the load. To accurately calculate the RMS and average values of power in the load and in the
amplifier, the current and voltage waveforms must be understood (see Figure 38).

Although the voltages and currents for SE and BTL are sinusoidal in the load, currents from the supply are very
different between SE and BTL configurations. In an SE application, the current waveform is a half-wave rectified
shape, whereas in BTL it is a full-wave rectified waveform. Therefore, RMS conversion factors are different. Keep
in mind that for most of the waveform both the push and pull transistors are not on at the same time, which
supports the fact that each amplifier in the BTL device only draws current from the supply for half the waveform.
Equation 8 and Equation 9 are the basis for calculating amplifier efficiency.

Table 2 employs Equation 9 to calculate efficiencies for four different output-power levels. Note that the efficiency
of the amplifier is quite low for lower power levels and rises sharply as power to the load is increased resulting in
a nearly flat internal power dissipation over the normal operating range. Note that the internal dissipation at full
output power is less than in the half-power range. Calculating the efficiency for a specific system is the key to
proper power supply design. For a stereo 1-W audio system with 8-Ω loads and a 5-V supply, the maximum draw
on the power supply is almost 3.25 W.

High peak voltages cause the THD to increase.
A final point to remember about Class-AB amplifiers (either SE or BTL) is how to manipulate the terms in the
efficiency equation to utmost advantage when possible. Note that in Equation 9, VDD is in the denominator. This
indicates that as VDD goes down, efficiency goes up.
Crest Factor and Thermal Considerations
Class-AB power amplifiers dissipate a significant amount of heat in the package under normal operating
conditions. A typical music CD requires 12 dB to 15 dB of dynamic range, or headroom, above the average
power output, to pass the loudest portions of the signal without distortion. In other words, music typically has a
crest factor between 12 dB and 15 dB. When determining the optimal ambient operating temperature, the internal
dissipated power at the average output power level must be used. From the data sheet, one can see that when
the device is operating from a 5-V supply into a 3-Ω speaker that 4-W peaks are available. Use Equation 10 to
convert watts to dB.
P
P dB 10Log W 10Log 4 W 6 dB

P ref
(10)
Subtracting the headroom restriction to obtain the average listening level without distortion yields:
6 dB - 15 dB = -9 dB (15-dB crest factor)
6 dB - 12 dB = -6 dB (12-dB crest factor)
6 dB - 9 dB = -3 dB (9-dB crest factor)
6 dB - 6 dB = 0 dB (6-dB crest factor)
6 dB - 3 dB = 3 dB (3-dB crest factor)
Converting dB back into watts:
PW = 10PdB/10× Pref
= 63 mW (18-dB crest factor)
= 125 mW (15-dB crest factor)
= 250 mW (9-dB crest factor)
= 500 mW (6-dB crest factor)
= 1000 mW (3-dB crest factor)
= 2000 mW (0-dB crest factor)
This is valuable information to consider when estimating the heat-dissipation requirements for the amplifier
system. Comparing the worst case, 2 W of continuous power output with a 3-dB crest factor, against 12-dB and
15-dB applications, drastically affects maximum ambient temperature ratings for the system. Using the power
dissipation curves for a 5-V, 3-Ω system, the internal dissipation and maximum ambient temperatures are shown
in the table below.

The maximum dissipated power (PDmax) is reached at a much lower output power level for a 3-Ω load than for an
8-Ω load. As a result, the formula in Equation 11for calculating PDmax may be used for a 3-Ω application:
2V2
DD
P Dmax 2R L
(11)
However, in the case of an 8-Ω load, the PDmax occurs at a point well above the normal operating power level.
The amplifier may therefore be operated at a higher ambient temperature than required by the PDmax formula for
an 8-Ω load, but do not exceed the maximum ambient temperature of 85°.
The maximum ambient temperature depends on the heatsinking ability of the PCB system. The derating factor
for the PWP package is shown in the dissipation rating table. Converting this to θJA:

To calculate maximum ambient temperatures, first consider that the numbers from the dissipation graphs are
per-channel, so the dissipated heat is doubled for two-channel operation. Given θJA, the maximum allowable
junction temperature, and the total internal dissipation, the maximum ambient temperature can be calculated
using Equation 13. The maximum recommended junction temperature for the device is 150°C. The internal
dissipation figures are taken from the Power Dissipation vs Output Power graphs.

NOTE:
Internal dissipation of 0.6 W is estimated for a 2-W system with 15-dB crest factor per
channel.
Due to package limitiations, the actual TAMAX is 85°C.
The power rating tables show that for some applications, no airflow is required to keep junction temperatures in
the specified range. The internal thermal protection turns the device off at junction temperatures higher than
150°C to prevent damage to the IC. The power rating tables in this section were calculated for maximum
listening volume without distortion. When the output level is reduced the numbers in the table change
significantly. Also, using 8-Ω speakers dramatically increases the thermal performance by increasing amplifier
efficiency.

PC-BEEP OPERATION
The PC-BEEP input allows a system beep to be sent directly from a computer through the amplifier to the
speakers with few external components. The input is activated automatically. When the PC-BEEP input is active,
both LINEIN and HPIN inputs are deselected, and both the left and right channels are driven in BTL mode with
the signal from PC-BEEP. The gain from the PC-BEEP input to the speakers is fixed at 0.3 V/V and is
independent of the volume setting. When the PC-BEEP input is deselected, the amplifier returns to the previous
operating mode and volume setting. Furthermore, if the amplifier is in shutdown mode, activating PC-BEEP takes
the device out of shutdown, outputs the PC-BEEP signal, then returns the amplifier to shutdown mode.
The preferred input signal is a square wave or pulse train. To be accurately detected, the signal must have a
minimum of 1.5-Vpp amplitude, rise and fall times of less than 0.1 µs and a minimum of eight rising edges. When
the signal is no longer detected, the amplifier returns to its previous operating mode and volume setting.
To ac-couple the PC-BEEP input, choose a coupling-capacitor value to satisfy Equation 14.

The PC-BEEP input can also be dc-coupled to avoid using this coupling capacitor. The pin normally rests at
midrail when no signal is present.
SE/BTL Operation
The ability of the TPA0252 to easily switch between BTL and SE modes is one of its most important cost saving
features. This feature eliminates the requirement for an additional headphone amplifier in applications where
internal stereo speakers are driven in BTL mode but external headphone or speakers must be accommodated.
Internal to the TPA0252, two separate amplifiers drive OUT+ and OUT–. The SE/BTL input (terminal 22) controls
the operation of the follower amplifier that drives LOUT– and ROUT– (terminals 1 and 11). When SE/BTL is held
low, the amplifier is on and the TPA0252 is in the BTL mode. When SE/BTL is held high, the OUT– amplifiers
are in a high output impedance state, which configures the TPA0252 as an SE driver from LOUT+ and ROUT+
(terminals 23 and 13). IDD is reduced by approximately one-half in SE mode. Control of the SE/BTL input can be
from a logic-level CMOS source or, more typically, from a resistor divider network as shown in Figure 39.

Using a readily available 1/8-in. (3.5 mm) stereo headphone jack, the control switch is closed when no plug is
inserted. When closed, the 100-kΩ/1-kΩ divider pulls the SE/BTL input low. When a plug is inserted, the 1-kΩ
resistor is disconnected and the SE/BTL input is pulled high. When the input goes high, the OUT– amplifier is
shut down causing the speaker to mute (virtually open-circuits the speaker). The OUT+ amplifier then drives
through the output capacitor (COUT) into the headphone jack.

Figure 40. TPA0252 Example Input MUX Circuit
The TPA0252 offers the capability for the designer to use separate headphone inputs (RHPIN, LHPIN) and line
inputs (RLINEIN, LLINEIN). The inputs can be different if the input signal is single-ended. If using a differential
input signal, the inputs must be the same because the inputs share a common RIN, LIN. Although the typical
application in Figure 30 shows the input mux control signal HP/LINE tied to SE/BTL, that configuration is not
required. The input mux can be used to select between two inputs that are used in both SE and BTL modes.
If using the TPA0232 with a single-ended input, the RIN and LIN terminals must be tied through a capacitor to
ground, as shown in Figure 40. RIN and LIN must not be tied to bypass or an offset occurs on the output causing
the device to pop when turning on and off.
Input coupling capacitors can be eliminated when using differential inputs, but are used to obtain maximum
output power. If the input capacitors are eliminated, the dc offset must match the voltage on BYPASS or the
output power is limited.

Shutdown Modes
The TPA0252 employs a shutdown mode of operation designed to reduce supply current, IDD, to the absolute
minimum level during periods of nonuse for battery-power conservation. The SHUTDOWN input terminal is held
high during normal operation when the amplifier is in use. Pulling SHUTDOWN low causes the outputs to mute
and the amplifier to enter a low-current state, IDD = 150 µA. SHUTDOWN must never be left unconnected
because amplifier operation would be unpredictable.
