NCP9004
2.65 W Filterless Class−D
Audio Power Amplifier
The NCP9004 is a cost−effective mono Class−D audio power
amplifier capable of delivering 2.65 W of continuous average power
to 4.0 from a 5.0 V supply in a Bridge Tied Load (BTL)
configuration. Under the same conditions, the output power stage can
provide 1.4 W to a 8.0 BTL load with less than 1% THD+N. For
cellular handsets or PDAs it offers space and cost savings because no
output filter is required when using inductive tranducers. With more
than 90% efficiency and very low shutdown current, it increases the
lifetime of your battery and drastically lowers the junction
temperature.
The NCP9004 processes analog inputs with a pulse width
modulation technique that lowers output noise and THD when
compared to a conventional sigma−delta modulator. The device allows
independent gain while summing signals from various audio sources.
Thus, in cellular handsets, the earpiece, the loudspeaker and even the
melody ringer can be driven with a single NCP9004. Due to its low
42 V noise floor, A−weighted, a clean listening is guaranteed no
matter the load sensitivity.

Stresses exceeding Maximum Ratings may damage the device. Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation above the
Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Extended exposure to stresses above the Recommended Operating Conditions may affect
device reliability.
1. The device is protected by a current breaker structure. See “Current Breaker Circuit” in the Description Information section for more
information.
2. The thermal shutdown is set to 160°C (typical) avoiding irreversible damage to the device due to power dissipation.
3. For the 9−Pin Flip−Chip CSP package, the RJA is highly dependent of the PCB Heatsink area. For example, RJA can equal 195°C/W with
50 mm2 total area and also 135°C/W with 500 mm2. When using ground and power planes, the value is around 90°C/W, as specified in table.
4. Human Body Model: 100 pF discharged through a 1.5 k resistor following specification JESD22/A114. B2 pin (Vp) qualified at 1500 V.
5. Machine Model: 200 pF discharged through all pins following specification JESD22/A115.
6. Latchup Testing per JEDEC Standard JESD78.
7. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 per IPC/JEDEC standard: J−STD−020A.

Figure 2. Test Setup for Graphs
NOTES:
1. Unless otherwise noted, Ci = 100 nF and Ri= 150 k. Thus, the gain setting is 2 V/V and the cutoff frequency of the
input high pass filter is set to 10 Hz. Input capacitors are shorted for CMRR measurements.
2. To closely reproduce a real application case, all measurements are performed using the following loads:
RL = 8 means Load = 15 H + 8 + 15 H
RL = 4 means Load = 15 H + 4 + 15 H
Very low DCR 15 H inductors (50 m) have been used for the following graphs. Thus, the electrical load
measurements are performed on the resistor (8 or 4 ) in differential mode.
3. For Efficiency measurements, the optional 30 kHz filter is used. An RC low−pass filter is selected with
(100 , 47 nF) on each PWM output.

NCP9004
DESCRIPTION INFORMATION
Detailed Description
The basic structure of the NCP9004 is composed of one
analog pre−amplifier, a pulse width modulator and an
H−bridge CMOS power stage. The first stage is externally
configurable with gain−setting resistor Ri and the internal
fixed feedback resistor Rf (the closed−loop gain is fixed by
the ratios of these resistors) and the other stage is fixed. The
load is driven differentially through two output stages.
The differential PWM output signal is a digital image of
the analog audio input signal. The human ear is a band pass
filter regarding acoustic waveforms, the typical values of
which are 20 Hz and 20 kHz. Thus, the user will hear only
the amplified audio input signal within the frequency range.
The switching frequency and its harmonics are fully filtered.
The inductive parasitic element of the loudspeaker helps to
guarantee a superior distortion value.
(5.0 ms). This method to turn on the device is optimized in
terms of rejection of “pop and click” noises. Thus, the total
turn on time to get full power to the load is 9 ms (typical)
(see Figure 35).
The device has the same behavior when it is turned−off by
a logic low on the shutdown pin. No power is delivered to the
load 5 ms after a falling edge on the shutdown pin
(see Figure 36). Due to the fast turn on and off times, the
shutdown signal can be used as a mute signal as well.
Shutdown Function
The device enters shutdown mode when the shutdown
signal is low. During the shutdown mode, the DC quiescent
current of the circuit does not exceed 1.5 A.
Current Breaker Circuit
The maximum output power of the circuit corresponds to
an average current in the load of 820 mA.
In order to limit the excessive power dissipation in the
load if a short−circuit occurs, a current breaker cell shuts
down the output stage. The current in the four output MOS
transistors are real−time controlled, and if one current
exceeds the threshold set to 1.5 A, the MOS transistor is
opened and the current is reduced to zero. As soon as the
short−circuit is removed, the circuit is able to deliver the
expected output power.
This patented structure protects the NCP9004. Since it
completely turns off the load, it minimizes the risk of the
chip overheating which could occur if a soft current limiting
circuit was used.
Power Amplifier
The output PMOS and NMOS transistors of the amplifier
have been designed to deliver the output power of the
specifications without clipping. The channel resistance
(Ron) of the NMOS and PMOS transistors is typically 0.3.
Turn On and Turn Off Transitions
In order to eliminate “pop and click” noises during
transition, the output power in the load must not be
established or cutoff suddenly. When a logic high is applied
to the shutdown pin, the internal biasing voltage rises
quickly and, 4 ms later, once the output DC level is around
the common mode voltage, the gain is established slowly

APPLICATION INFORMATION
NCP9004 PWM Modulation Scheme
is applied, OUTP duty cycle is greater than 50% and OUTM
is less than 50%. With this configuration, the current through
the load is 0 A most of the switching period and thus power
losses in the load are lowered.
The NCP9004 uses a PWM modulation scheme with each
output switching from 0 to the supply voltage. If Vin = 0 V
outputs OUTM and OUTP are in phase and no current is
flowing through the differential load. When a positive signal

Optional Output Filter
The first stage is an analog amplifier. The second stage is
a comparator: the output of the first stage is compared with
a periodic ramp signal. The output comparator gives a pulse
width modulation signal (PWM). The third and last stage is
the direct conversion of the PWM signal with MOS
transistors H−bridge into a powerful output signal with low
impedance capability.
The total gain of the device is typically set to:
This filter is optional due to the capability of the speaker
to filter by itself the high frequency signal. Nevertheless, the
high frequency is not audible and filtered by the human ear.
An optional filter can be used for filtering high frequency
signal before the speaker. In this case, the circuit consists of
two inductors (15 H) and two capacitors (2.2 F)
(Figure 38). The size of the inductors is linked to the output
power requested by the application. A simplified version of
this filter requires a 1 F capacitor in parallel with the load,
instead of two 2.2 F connected to ground (Figure 39).
Cellular phones and portable electronic devices are great
applications for Filterless Class−D as the track length
between the amplifier and the speaker is short, thus, there is
usually no need for an EMI filter. However, to lower radiated
emissions as much as possible when used in filterless mode,
a ferrite filter can often be used. Select a ferrite bead with the
high impedance around 100 MHz and a very low DCR value
in the audio frequency range is the best choice. The
MPZ1608S221A1 from TDK is a good choice. The package
size is 0603.

When using an input resistor set to 150 k, the gain
configuration is 2 V/V. In such a case, the input capacitor
selection can be from 10 nF to 1 F with cutoff frequency
values between 1 Hz and 100 Hz. The NCP9004 also
includes a built in low pass filtering function. It’s cut off
frequency is set to 20 kHz.

A 1.0 F low ESR ceramic capacitor can also be used with
slightly degraded performances on the THD+N from 0.06%
up to 0.2%.
In two layer application, if both Vp pins are connected on
the top layer, two decoupling capacitors will improve the
THD+N level. For example, a pair of capactors, 470 nF and
4.7 F, are good choices for filtering the power supply.
The NCP9004 power audio amplifier can operate from
2.5 V until 5.5 V power supply. With less than 2% THD+N,
it delivers 500 mW rms output power to a 8.0 load at
Vp =3.0 V and 1.0 W rms output power at Vp = 4.0 V.
PCB Layout Information
NCP9004 is suitable for low cost solution. In a very small
package it gives all the advantages of a Class−D audio
amplifier. Due to its fully differential capability, the audio
signal can only be provided by an input resistor. If a low pass
filtering function is required, then an input coupling
capacitor is needed. The values of these components
determine the voltage gain and the bandwidth frequency.
The battery positive supply voltage requires a good
decoupling capacitor versus the expected distortion.
When the board is using Ground and Power planes with
at least 4 layers, a single 4.7 F filtering ceramic capactior
on the bottom face will give optimized performance.

Note: This track between Vp pins is only needed when a 2 layers board is used. In case of a typical
4 or more layers, the use of laser vias in pad will optimize the THD+N floor.
