Maxim MAX4366EUA 330mw, ultra-small, audio power amplifiers with shutdown Datasheet

19-2338; Rev 2; 12/02
330mW, Ultra-Small, Audio Power Amplifiers
with Shutdown
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 are bridged audio
power amplifiers intended for devices with internal
speakers and headsets. The MAX4366/MAX4367/
MAX4368 are capable of delivering 330mW of continuous power into a 32Ω load, or 200mW into a 16Ω load
with 1% THD+N from a single 5V supply.
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 bridged outputs eliminate the need for output-coupling capacitors minimizing
external component count. The MAX4366/MAX4367/
MAX4368 also feature a low-power shutdown mode,
clickless power-up/power-down and internal DC bias
generation. The MAX4366 is a unity-gain stable, programmable gain amplifier. The MAX4367/MAX4368 feature
internally preset gains of 2V/V and 3V/V, respectively.
All devices are available in space-saving 8-pin SOT23,
thin QFN and µMAX packages, and an 8-bump chipscale package (UCSP™).

Note 1: Continuous power dissipation must also be observed.
Note 2: This device is constructed using a unique set of packaging techniques that impose a limit on the thermal profile the device
can be exposed to during board-level solder attach and rework. This limit permits only the use of the solder profiles recommended in the industry-standard specification, JEDEC 020A, paragraph 7.6, Table 3 for IR/VPR and convection reflow.
Preheating is required. Hand or wave soldering is not allowed.
Note 3: All specifications are 100% tested at TA = +25°C; temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
Note 4: Quiescent power-supply current is specified and tested with no load on the outputs. Quiescent power-supply current
depends on the offset voltage when a practical load is connected to the amplifier.
Note 5: Common-mode bias voltage is the voltage on BIAS and is nominally VCC/2.
Note 6: Differential voltage gain for the MAX4366 is specified as an open-loop parameter because external resistors are used to set
the closed-loop gain. The MAX4367/MAX4368 contain internal feedback resistors that preset the differential voltage gain.
Differential voltage gain is defined as (VOUT+ - VOUT-) / (VIN - VBIAS). All gains are specified over an output voltage range of
0.6V ≤ VOUT ≤ 4.4V.
Note 7: Specification applies to either output. An amplifier peak output current of 87mA is required to support an output load power
of 60mW for a 16Ω load, or 120mW for a 32Ω load.
Note 8: Output power specifications are inferred from the output current test. For 60mW into a 16Ω load, IOUT(PEAK) is 87mA and
VOUT(P-P) is 1.39V per amplifier. For 120mW into a 32Ω load, IOUT(PEAK) is 87mA and VOUT(P-P) is 2.77V per amplifier.
Note 9: Guaranteed by design. Not production tested.
Note 10: Measurement bandwidth for THD+N is 20Hz to 20kHz.
Note 11: Power-up and shutdown times are for the output to reach 90% of full scale with CBIAS = 1µF.

Detailed Description
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 bridged audio
power amplifiers can deliver 330mW into a 32Ω load, or
200mW into a 16Ω load, while operating from a single
5V supply. These devices consist of two high-outputcurrent op amps configured as a bridge-tied load (BTL)
amplifier (see Functional Diagram). The closed-loop
gain of the input op amp sets the single-ended gain of
the device. Two external resistors set the gain of the
MAX4366 (see Gain-Setting Resistors section). The
MAX4367/MAX4368 feature internally fixed gains of
2V/V and 3V/V, respectively. The output of the first
amplifier serves as the input to the second amplifier,
which is configured as an inverting unity-gain follower
in all three devices. This results in two outputs, identical
in magnitude, but 180° out of phase.
BIAS
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 feature an internally
generated common-mode bias voltage of VCC/2 referenced to GND. BIAS provides both click-and-pop suppression and the DC bias level for the audio signal.
BIAS is internally connected to the noninverting input of
one amplifier, and should be connected to the noninverting input of the other amplifier for proper signal
biasing (Typical Application Circuit). Choose the value
of the bypass capacitor as described in the BIAS
Capacitor section.
Shutdown
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 feature a 35µA, lowpower shutdown mode that reduces quiescent current
consumption and extends battery life. Pulling SHDN

GND for normal operation.
Applications Information
Bridge-Tied Load
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 are designed to
drive a load differentially, a configuration referred to as
bridge-tied load (BTL). The BTL configuration (Figure 1)
offers advantages over the single-ended configuration,
where one side of the load is connected to ground.
Driving the load differentially doubles the output voltage compared to a single-ended amplifier under similar
conditions. The differential gain of the device is twice
the closed-loop gain of the input amplifier. The effective
gain of the MAX4366 is given by:
A VD = 2 ×

with Shutdown
The effective gains of the MAX4367 and MAX4368 are
AVD = 2V/V and AVD = 3V/V respectively. Substituting 2
x VOUT(P-P) for VOUT(P-P) into the following equations
yields four times the output power due to doubling of
the output voltage.
VRMS =
VOUT(P−P)
2 2

POUT = RMS
RL
Since the differential outputs are biased at midsupply,
there is no net DC voltage across the load. This eliminates the need for DC-blocking capacitors required for
single-ended amplifiers. These capacitors can be
large, expensive, consume board space, and degrade
low-frequency performance.
In single-ended mode, the load must be capacitively
coupled to the device output to block the half-supply
DC voltage from the load (see Output Coupling
Capacitor section). Leave the unused output floating.
Power Dissipation
Under normal operating conditions, linear power amplifiers like the MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 can dissipate a significant amount of power. The maximum
power dissipation for each package is given in the
Absolute Maximum Ratings section under Continuous
Power Dissipation or can be calculated by the following
equation:
PDISS(MAX) =
TJ(MAX) - TA
Θ JA
where TJ(MAX) is +150°C and TA is the reciprocal of the
derating factor in °C/W as specified in the Absolute
Single-Ended Configuration
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 can be used as single-ended amplifiers (Figure 2). The gain of the device
in single-ended mode is 1/2 the gain in BTL configuration and the output power is reduced by a factor of 4.
The single-ended gains of the MAX4367 and MAX4368
are 1V/V and 1.5V/V, respectively. Set the MAX4366
gain according to the Gain-Setting Resistors section.

PIN NUMBERS REFER TO SOT23, QFN, AND µMAX PACKAGES
Figure 4. MAX4367/MAX4368 Typical Application Circuit
Maximum Ratings section. For example, ΘJA of a µMAX
package is 222°C/W.
The increase in power delivered by the BTL configuration directly results in an increase in internal power dissipation over the single-ended configuration. If the
power dissipation exceeds the maximum allowed for a
given package, either reduce V CC , increase load
impedance, decrease the ambient temperature, or add
heat sinking to the device. Large output, supply, and
ground traces improve the maximum power dissipation
in the package.
Thermal overload protection limits total power dissipation in the MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368. When the
junction temperature exceeds +165°C, the thermal protection circuitry disables the amplifier output stage. The
amplifiers are re-enabled once the junction temperature
cools by +10°C. This results in a pulsing output under
continuous thermal overload conditions avoiding damage to the port.
Component Selection
Gain-Setting Resistors
External feedback components set the gain of the
MAX4366. Resistors RF and RIN (Figure 3) set the gain
of the input amplifier as follows:
R 
A VD = 2  F 
 RIN 
The gain of the device in a single-ended configuration
is half the gain of the BTL case. Choose RF between
10kΩ and 50kΩ. The gains of the MAX4367/MAX4368
are set internally (Figure 4).
Input Filter
The input capacitor (CIN), in conjunction with RIN forms
a highpass filter that removes the DC bias from an
incoming signal. The AC-coupling capacitor allows the
amplifier to bias the signal to an optimum DC level.
Assuming zero source impedance, the -3dB point of
the highpass filter is given by:
ƒ -3dB =
1
2πRINCIN

MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368
VCC
MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368
330mW, Ultra-Small, Audio Power Amplifiers
with Shutdown
Choose RIN according to the Gain-Setting Resistors
section. Choose the CIN such that f-3dB is well below
the lowest frequency of interest. Setting f-3dB too high
affects the low-frequency response of the system.
Other considerations when designing the input filter
include the constraints of the overall system, the actual
frequency band of interest and click-and-pop suppression. Although high-fidelity audio calls for a flat-gain
response between 20Hz and 20kHz, portable voicereproduction devices such as cellular phones and twoway radios need only concentrate on the frequency
range of the spoken human voice (typically 300Hz to
3.5kHz). In addition, speakers used in portable devices
typically have a poor response below 150Hz. Taking
these two factors into consideration, the input filter may
not need to be designed for a 20Hz to 20kHz response,
saving both board space and cost due to the use of
smaller capacitors.
BIAS Capacitor
The BIAS bypass capacitor, CBIAS improves powersupply rejection ratio and THD+N by reducing powersupply noise at the common-mode bias node, and
serves as the primary click-and-pop suppression
mechanism. CBIAS is fed from an internal 25kΩ source,
and controls the rate at which the common-mode bias
voltage rises at startup and falls during shutdown. For
optimum click-and-pop suppression, ensure that the
input capacitor (CIN) is fully charged (ten time constants) before CBIAS. The value of CBIAS for best clickand-pop suppression is given by:
C R 
CBIAS ≤ 10  IN IN 
 25kΩ 
In addition, a larger CBIAS value yields higher PSRR,
especially in single-ended applications.
Output-Coupling Capacitor
The MAX4366/MAX4367/MAX4368 require output-coupling capacitors only when configured as a singleended amplifier. The output capacitor blocks the DC
component of the amplifier output, preventing DC current flowing to the load. The output capacitor and the
load impedance form a highpass filter with the -3dB
point determined by:
ƒ -3dB =
1
2πRLCOUT
As with the input capacitor, choose the output capacitor
(COUT) such that f-3dB is well below the lowest frequency of interest. Setting f-3dB too high affects the lowfrequency response of the system.

TIP
(SIGNAL)
SLEEVE
(GND)
Figure 5. Typical 2-Wire Headphone Plug
In addition to click-and-pop suppression and frequency
band considerations, the load impedance is another
concern when choosing COUT. Load impedance can
vary, changing the -3dB point of the output filter. A
lower impedance increases the corner frequency,
degrading low-frequency response. Select COUT such
that the worst-case load/COUT combination yields an
adequate response.
Clickless/Popless Operation
Proper selection of AC-coupling capacitors and CBIAS
achieves clickless/popless shutdown and startup. The
value of CBIAS determines the rate at which the mid-rail
bias voltage rises on startup and falls when entering
shutdown. The size of the input capacitor also affects
clickless/popless operation. On startup, CIN is charged
to its quiescent DC voltage through the feedback resistor (RF) from the output. This current creates a voltage
transient at the amplifier’s output, which can result in an
audible pop. Minimizing the size of CIN reduces this
effect, improving click-and-pop suppression.
Supply Bypassing
Proper supply bypassing ensures low-noise, low-distortion performance. Place a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 10µF capacitor from VCC to GND. Locate the
bypass capacitors as close to the device as possible.
Headphone Applications
The MAX4366/MAX4368 can drive a mono headphone
when configured as a single-ended amplifier. Typical 2wire headphone plugs consist of a tip and sleeve. The tip
is the signal carrier while the sleeve is the ground connection (Figure 5). Figure 6 shows the device configured
to drive headphones. OUT+ is connected to the tip,
delivering the signal to the headphone, while OUTremains unconnected.

Layout Considerations
Good layout improves performance by decreasing the
amount of stray capacitance and noise at the amplifier’s inputs and outputs. Decrease stray capacitance by
minimizing PC board trace lengths, using surfacemount components and placing external components
as close to the device as possible.
UCSP Considerations
Figure 8. MAX4367/MAX5160 Volume Control Circuit
For general UCSP information and PC layout considerations, please refer to the Maxim Application Note:
UCSP–A Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package.
Wireless-Phone Headset Application
Many wireless telephones feature an earbud speaker/inline microphone combination for hands-free use. One
common solution is to use a BTL amplifier that drives the
internal speaker and an earplug jack that mutes the internal speaker by physically disconnecting OUT- when a
headset is plugged in (Figure 7). The headset is driven
single-endedly, requiring an output-coupling capacitor,
COUT, and resulting in a 4x reduction in output power.
Adding Volume Control
The addition of a digital potentiometer provides simple
volume control. Figure 8 shows the MAX4367/MAX4368
with the MAX5160 digital potentiometer used as an
input attenuator. Connect the high terminal of the
MAX5160 to the audio input, the low terminal to ground
and the wiper to CIN. Setting the wiper to the top posi-
