TPA0202
2-W STEREO AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER
SLOS205B – FEBRUARY 1998 – REVISED DECEMBER 2000
description
The TPA0202 is a stereo audio power amplifier in a 24-pin TSSOP thermal package capable of delivering
greater than 2 W of continuous RMS power per channel into 3-Ω loads. The TPA0202 simplifies design and frees
up board space for other features. Full power distortion levels of less than 0.1% THD+N from a 5-V supply are
typical. Low-voltage applications are also well served by the TPA0202 providing 800-mW per channel into 3-Ω
loads with a 3.3-V supply voltage.
The TPA0202 has integrated depop circuitry that virtually eliminates transients that cause noise in the speakers
during power up and when using the mute and shutdown modes.
Amplifier gain is externally configured by means of two resistors per input channel and does not require external
compensation for settings of 2 to 20 in BTL mode (1 to 10 in SE mode). An internal input MUX allows two sets
of stereo inputs to the amplifier. In notebook applications, where internal speakers are driven as BTL and the
line (often headphone drive) outputs are required to be SE, the TPA0202 automatically switches into SE mode
when the SE/BTL input is activated. Using the TPA0202 to drive line outputs up to 700 mW/channel into external
3-Ω loads is ideal for small non-powered external speakers in portable multimedia systems. The TPA0202 also
features a shutdown function for power sensitive applications, holding the supply current at 5 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 readily realized in multilayer PCB
applications. This allows the TPA0202 to operate at full power into 3-Ω loads at ambient temperature of up to
85°C with 300 CFM of forced-air cooling. Into 8-Ω loads, the operating ambient temperature increases to 100°C.

THERMAL INFORMATION
The thermally enhanced PWP package is based on the 24-pin TSSOP, but includes a thermal pad (see Figure 58)
to provide an effective thermal contact between the IC and the PWB.
Traditionally, surface-mount and power have been mutually exclusive terms. A variety of scaled-down TO-220-type
packages have leads formed as gull wings to make them applicable for surface-mount applications. These packages,
however, have only two shortcomings: they do not address the very low profile requirements (< 2 mm) of many of
today’s advanced systems, and they do not offer a terminal-count high enough to accommodate increasing
integration. On the other hand, traditional low-power surface-mount packages require power-dissipation derating that
severely limits the usable range of many high-performance analog circuits.
The PowerPAD package (thermally enhanced TSSOP) combines fine-pitch surface-mount technology with thermal
performance comparable to much larger power packages.
The PowerPAD package is designed to optimize the heat transfer to the PWB. Because of the very small size and
limited mass of a TSSOP package, thermal enhancement is achieved by improving the thermal conduction paths that
remove heat from the component. The thermal pad is formed using a patented lead-frame design and manufacturing
technique to provide a direct connection to the heat-generating IC. When this pad is soldered or otherwise thermally
coupled to an external heat dissipator, high power dissipation in the ultra-thin, fine-pitch, surface-mount package can
be reliably achieved.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
bridged-tied load versus single-ended mode
Figure 59 shows a linear audio power amplifier (APA) in a BTL configuration. The TPA0202 BTL amplifier
consists of two linear 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. Plugging 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 1).

Figure 59. 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 that is a 6-dB improvement —
which is loudness that can be heard. In addition to increased power there are frequency response concerns.
Consider the single-supply SE configuration shown in Figure 60. 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
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 2.

bridged-tied load versus single-ended mode (continued)
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, which eliminates the need for the 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 60. 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 considering that the BTL configuration produces 4× the output power of the SE
configuration. Internal dissipation versus output power is discussed further in the thermal considerations
section.
BTL amplifier efficiency
Linear amplifiers are notoriously inefficient. The primary cause of these inefficiencies is voltage drop across the
output stage transistors. There are two components of the internal voltage drop. One is the headroom or dc
voltage drop that varies inversely to output power. The second component is due to the sinewave 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 starts out as being equal to the ratio of power from the power
supply to the power delivered to the load. To accurately calculate the RMS values of power in the load and in
the amplifier, the current and voltage waveform shapes must first be understood (see Figure 61).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
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. This means 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.

Table 1 employs equation 4 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.

A final point to remember about linear amplifiers (either SE or BTL) is how to manipulate the terms in the
efficiency equation to utmost advantage when possible. Note that in equation 4, VDD is in the denominator. This
indicates that as VDD goes down, efficiency goes up.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
For example, if the 5-V supply is replaced with a 3.3-V supply (TPA0202 has a maximum recommended VDD
of 5.5 V) in the calculations of Table 1, then efficiency at 0.5 W would rise from 44% to 67% and internal power
dissipation would fall from 0.62 W to 0.25 W at 5 V. Then for a stereo 0.5-W system from a 3.3-V supply, the
maximum draw would only be 1.5 W as compared to 2.24 W from 5 V. In other words, use the efficiency analysis
to choose the correct supply voltage and speaker impedance for the application.

BTL mode operation brings about the factor 2 in the gain equation due to the inverting amplifier mirroring the
voltage swing across the load. Given that the TPA0202 is a MOS amplifier, the input impedance is very high,
consequently input leakage currents are not generally a concern although noise in the circuit increases as the
value of RF increases. In addition, a certain range of RF values is required for proper start-up operation of the
amplifier. Taken together it is recommended that the effective impedance seen by the inverting node of the
amplifier be set between 5 kΩ and 20 kΩ. The effective impedance is calculated in equation 6.

As an example consider an input resistance of 10 kΩ and a feedback resistor of 50 kΩ. The BTL gain of the
amplifier would be –10 and the effective impedance at the inverting terminal would be 8.3 kΩ, which is well within
the recommended range.
For high performance applications metal film resistors are recommended because they tend to have lower noise
levels than carbon resistors. For values of RF above 50 kΩ the amplifier tends to become unstable due to a pole
formed from RF and the inherent input capacitance of the MOS input structure. For this reason, a small
compensation capacitor of approximately 5 pF should be placed in parallel with RF when RF is greater than
50 kΩ. This, in effect, creates a low pass filter network with the cutoff frequency defined in equation 7.

In the typical application an input capacitor, CI, is required to allow the amplifier to bias the input signal to the

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

CI
+ 2 p 1R fc
(9)
I
In this example, CI is 0.40 µF so one would likely choose a value in the range of 0.47 µF to 1 µF. A further
consideration for this capacitor is the leakage path from the input source through the input network (RI, CI) and
the feedback resistor (RF) 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
should face the amplifier input in most applications as the dc level there is held at VDD/2, which is likely higher
that the source dc level. Please note that it is important to confirm the capacitor polarity in the application.
power supply decoupling, CS
The TPA0202 is a high-performance CMOS audio amplifier that requires adequate power supply decoupling
to ensure the output total harmonic distortion (THD) is as low as possible. Power supply decoupling also
prevents oscillations for long lead lengths between the amplifier and the speaker. The optimum decoupling is
achieved by using two capacitors of different types that target different types of noise on the power supply leads.
For higher 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 lower-frequency noise signals, a larger aluminum electrolytic capacitor of 10 µF or greater placed near
the audio power amplifier is recommended.

midrail bypass capacitor, CB
The midrail bypass capacitor, CB, is the most critical capacitor and serves several important functions. During
startup or recovery from shutdown mode, CB determines the rate at which the amplifier starts up. The second
function is to reduce noise produced by the power supply caused by coupling into the output drive signal. This
noise is from the midrail generation circuit internal to the amplifier, which appears as degraded PSRR and
THD+N. The capacitor is fed from a 100-kΩ source inside the amplifier. To keep the start-up pop as low as
possible, the relationship shown in equation 10 should be maintained.

(10)
As an example, consider a circuit where CB is 1 µF, CI is 0.22 µF, RF is 50 kΩ, and RI is 10 kΩ. Inserting these
values into the equation 10 we get 10 ≤ 75, which satisfies the rule. Bypass capacitor, CB, values of 0.1 µF to
1 µF ceramic or tantalum low-ESR capacitors are recommended for the best THD and noise performance.
In Figure 63, the full feature configuration, two bypass capacitors are used. This provides the maximum
separation between right and left drive circuits. When absolute minimum cost and/or component space is
required, one bypass capacitor can be used as shown in Figure 62. It is critical that terminals 6 and 19 be tied
together in this configuration.
load considerations
Extremely low impedance loads (below 4 Ω) coupled with certain external component selections, board layouts,
and cabling can cause oscillations in the system. Using a single air-cored inductor in series with the load
eliminates any spurious oscillations that might occur. An inductance of approximately 1 µH has been shown to
eliminate such oscillations. There are no special considerations when using 4 Ω and above loads with this
amplifier.
optimizing depop operation
Circuitry has been included in the TPA0202 to minimize the amount of popping heard at power-up and when
coming out of shutdown mode. Popping occurs whenever a voltage step is applied to the speaker. If high
impedances are used for the feedback and input resistors, it is possible for the input capacitor to drift downwards
from mid-rail during mute and shutdown. A high gain amplifier intensifies the problem as the small delta in
voltage is multiplied by the gain. So it is advantageous to use low-gain configurations, and to limit the size of
the gain-setting resistors. The time constant of the input coupling capacitor (CI ) and the gain-setting resistors
(RI and RF ) needs to be shorter than the time constant formed by the bypass capacitor (CB ) and the output
impedance of the mid-rail generator, which is nominally 100 kΩ (see equation 10).
The effective output impedance of the mid-rail generator is actually greater than 100 kΩ due to a PNP transistor
clamping the input node (see Figure 64).

Figure 64. PNP Transistor Clamping of BYPASS Terminal
The PNP transistor limits the voltage drop across the 50 kΩ resistor by slewing the internal node slowly when
power is applied. At start-up, the xBYPASS capacitor is at 0. The PNP is pulling the mid-point of the bias circuit
down, so the capacitor sees a lower effective voltage, and thus charges slower. This appears as a linear ramp
(while the PNP transistor is conducting), followed by the expected exponential ramp of an R-C circuit.
If the expression in equation 10 cannot be fulfilled or the small amount of pop is still unacceptable for the
application, then external circuitry must be added that can eliminate the pop heard during power up and while
transitioning out of mute or shutdown modes.
By holding the device in SE mode when the pop normally occurs, no pop can be heard through the
BTL-connected speakers (as the negative output is in a high impedance state when the amplifier is in SE mode).
From a hardware point of view, the easiest way to implement this is to drive the SE/BTL terminal from the
general-purpose input-output (GPIO) in the system. If the SE/BTL terminal is normally connected to a
headphone socket (as shown in Figure 65), then the GPIO signal must either be taken through an OR gate (see
Figure 65) or isolated with a diode (any signal diode) (see Figure 66).

The OR gate and diode isolate the GPIO terminal from the headphone switch. In these implementations, the

When the amplifier is in mute mode, the output stage continues to be biased. This causes the transition out of
mute mode to be very fast with only a short delay (from 100 ms to 500 ms). During power up or the transition
out of shutdown mode, a longer delay ( from 1 s to 2 s) is required. The exact delay time required is dependent
on the values of the external components used with the amplifier (see Figure 67).

The main disadvantage, from a performance standpoint, is the load impedances are typically small, which drives
the low-frequency corner higher degrading the bass response. Large values of CC are required to pass low
frequencies into the load. Consider the example where a CC of 330 µF is chosen and loads vary from 3 Ω,
4 Ω, 8 Ω, 32 Ω, 10 kΩ, to 47 kΩ. Table 2 summarizes the frequency response characteristics of each

SE/BTL operation
The ability of the TPA0202 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 TPA0202, two separate amplifiers drive OUT+ and OUT–. The SE/BTL input (terminal 14)
controls the operation of the follower amplifier that drives LOUT– and ROUT– (terminals 10 and 15). When
SE/BTL is held low, the amplifier is on and the TPA0202 is in the BTL mode. When SE/BTL is held high, the OUT–
amplifiers are in a high output impedance state, which configures the TPA0202 as an SE driver from LOUT+
and ROUT+ (terminals 3 and 22). 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 68.

resistor is disconnected and the SE/BTL input is pulled high. When the input goes high, the OUT– amplifier is
shutdown causing the speaker to mute (virtually open-circuits the speaker). The OUT+ amplifier then drives
through the output capacitor (CO) into the headphone jack.
As shown in the full feature application (Figure 63), the input MUX control can be tied to the SE/BTL input. The

mute and shutdown modes
The TPA0202 employs both a mute and 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 should be held low during normal operation when the amplifier is in use. Pulling SHUTDOWN high
causes the outputs to mute and the amplifier to enter a low-current state, IDD = 5 µA. SHUTDOWN or MUTE
IN should never be left unconnected because amplifier operation would be unpredictable. Mute mode alone
reduces IDD to 1.5 mA.

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.
5-V versus 3.3-V operation
The TPA0202 operates over a supply range of 3 V to 5.5 V. This data sheet provides full specifications for 5-V
and 3.3-V operation, as these are considered to be the two most common standard voltages. There are no
special considerations for 3.3-V versus 5-V operation as far as supply bypassing, gain setting, or stability goes.
For 3.3-V operation, supply current is reduced from 19 mA (typical) to 13 mA (typical). The most important
consideration is that of output power. Each amplifier in TPA0202 can produce a maximum voltage swing of
VDD – 1 V. This means, for 3.3-V operation, clipping starts to occur when VO(PP) = 2.3 V as opposed to
VO(PP) = 4 V at 5 V. The reduced voltage swing subsequently reduces maximum output power into an 8-Ω load
before distortion becomes significant.
Operation from 3.3-V supplies, as can be shown from the efficiency formula in equation 4, consumes
approximately two-thirds the supply power for a given output-power level than operation from 5-V supplies.
When the application demands less than 500 mW, 3.3-V operation should be strongly considered, especially
in battery-powered applications to improve the efficiency.

This is valuable information to consider when attempting to estimate the heat dissipation requirements for the
amplifier system. Comparing the absolute worst case, which is 2 W of continuous power output with 0 dB of
headroom, 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 in the TPA0202
and maximum ambient temperatures is shown in Table 4.

† This parameter is measured with the recommended copper heat sink pattern on a 1-layer PCB, 4 in2 5-in × 5-in PCB,
1 oz. copper, 2-in × 2-in coverage.
‡ This parameter is measured with the recommended copper heat sink pattern on an 8-layer PCB, 6.9 in2 1.5-in × 2-in PCB,
1 oz. copper with layers 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8 at 5% coverage (0.9 in2) and layers 3 and 6 at 100% coverage (6 in2).
The maximum ambient temperature depends on the heatsinking ability of the PCB system. Using the 0 CFM
and 300 CFM data from the dissipation rating table, the derating factor for the PWP package with 6.9 in2 of
copper area on a multilayer PCB is 22 mW/°C and 54 mW/°C respectively. 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 needs to be doubled for two channel operation. Given ΘJA, the maximum
allowable junction temperature, and the total internal dissipation, the maximum ambient temperature can be
calculated with the following equation. The maximum recommended junction temperature for the TPA0202 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 headroom per channel.
Table 4 shows that for some applications no airflow is required to keep junction temperatures in the specified
range. The TPA0202 is designed with thermal protection that turns the device off when the junction temperature
surpasses 150°C to prevent damage to the IC. Table 4 was 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.
junction temperature measurement
Characterizing a PCB layout with respect to thermal impedance is very difficult, as it is usually impossible to
know the junction temperature of the IC in question. The TPA0202 terminal 2 (TJ) sources a current proportional
to the junction temperature. The circuit internal to TJ is shown in Figure 70.

Figure 70. TJ Terminal Internal Circuit
Connect an ammeter between TJ and ground to measure the current. As the resistors have a tolerance of ± 20%,
this measurement must be calibrated on each device. The intent of this function is in characterization of the PCB
and end equipment and not a real-time measurement of temperature. Typically a 25°C reading is –120 µA for
a 3.3-V supply and –135 µA for a 5-V supply. The slope is approximately 0.25 µA/°C for both VDD = 3.3 V and
VDD = 5 V. To reduce quiescent current, do not ground TJ in normal operation. It can be connected to VDD or
left floating as it has a resistor connected across the base-emitter junction.
