LPA2104
3Walts Mono Filter-free Class-D Audio Power Amplifier
General Description
The LPA2104 is a high efficiency, 3.0W mono class-D
audio power amplifier. A new developed filterless PWM
modulation architecture further reduces EMI and THD+N,
as well as eliminates the LC output filter, reducing external
component count, sys cost, and simplifying design.
Operating in a single 5V supply, LPA2104 is capable of
driving 4Ω speaker load at a continuous average output of
3.05W/10% THD+N or 2.6W/1% THD+N. The LPA2104
has high efficiency with speaker load compared to a typical
class D amplifier. With a 3.6V supply driving an 8Ω
speaker , the efficiency for a 400mW power level is 90%.In
cellular handsets, the earpiece, speaker phone, and melody
ringer can each be driven by the LPA2104. The gain of
LPA2104 is externally configurable which allows
independent gain control from multiple sources by
summing signals from separate sources.
The LPA2104 is available in space-saving SOP8 and
MSOP8 Packaging packages.

LPA2104
Application Information
The LPA2104 is a fully differential amplifier with
differential inputs and outputs. The fully differential
amplifier consists of a differential amplifier and a
common-mode amplifier. The differential amplifier ensures
that the amplifier outputs a differential voltage on the
output that is equal to the differential input times the gain.
The common-mode feedback ensures that the
common-mode voltage at the output is biased around
VDD/2 regardless of the common-mode voltage at the input.
The fully differential LPA2104 can still be used with a
single-ended input; however, the LPA2104 should be used
with differential inputs when in a noisy environment, like a
wireless handset, to ensure maximum noise rejection.
LPA2104

Input for a Wireless Phone
Advantages of Fully Differential Amplifiers
Input-coupling capacitors not required:
The fully differential amplifier allows the inputs to be
biased at voltage other than mid-supply. For example, if a
codec has a mid-supply lower than the mid-supply of the
LPA2104, the common-mode feedback circuit will adjust,
and the LPA2104 outputs will still be biased at mid-supply
of the LPA2104. The inputs of the LPA2104 can be biased
from 0.5V toVDD-0.8 V. If the inputs are biased outside of
that range, input-coupling capacitors are required.
Mid-supply bypass capacitor, C(BYPASS), not required:
- The fully differential amplifier does not require a bypass
capacitor. This is because any shift in the mid-supply
affects both positive and negative channels equally and
cancels at the differential output.
Better RF−immunity:
-GSM handsets save power by turning on and shutting off
the RF transmitter at a rate of 217Hz.The transmitted signal
is picked-up on input and output traces. The fully
differential amplifier cancels the signal much better than the
typical audio amplifier.
Component Selection
Figure 30 shows the LPA2104 typical schematic with
differential inputs and Figure 31 shows the LPA2104 with
differential inputs and input capacitors, and Figure 32
shows the LPA2104 with single-ended inputs. Differential
inputs should be used whenever possible because the
single-ended inputs are much more susceptible to noise.

Input Resistors (RI)
The input resistors (RI) set the gain of the amplifier
according to equation (1).
Table 1. Typical Component Values
(1) CI is only needed for single-ended input or if VICM is not
between 0.5 V and VDD – 0.8 V. CI = 3.3 nF (with RI = 150
kΩ) gives a high-pass corner frequency of 321 Hz.

Resistor matching is very important in fully differential
amplifiers. The balance of the output on the reference
voltage depends on matched ratios of the resistors. CMRR,
PSRR, and cancellation of the second harmonic distortion
diminish if resistor mismatch occurs. Therefore, it is
recommended to use 1% tolerance resistors or better to
keep the performance optimized. Matching is more
important than overall tolerance. Resistor arrays with 1%
www.lowpowersemi.com
Page 7 of 11
Preliminary Datasheet
matching can be used with a tolerance greater than 1%.
Place the input resistors very close to the LPA2104 to limit
noise injection on the high-impedance nodes.
For optimal performance the gain should be set to 2 V/V or
lower. Lower gain allows the LPA2104 to operate at its best,
and keeps a high voltage at the input making the inputs less
susceptible to noise.
Decoupling Capacitor (CS)
The LPA2104 is a high-performance class-D audio
amplifier that requires adequate power supply decoupling to
ensure the efficiency is high and total harmonic distortion
(THD) is low. For higher frequency transients, spikes, or
digital
hash
on
the
line,
a
good
low
equivalent-series-resistance (ESR) ceramic capacitor,
typically 1µF, placed as close as possible to the device
VDD lead works best. Placing this decoupling capacitor
close to the LPA2014 is very important for the efficiency of
the class-D amplifier, because any resistance or inductance
in the trace between the device and the capacitor can cause
a loss in efficiency. For filtering lower-frequency noise
signals, a 1 0µF or greater capacitor placed near the audio
power amplifier would also help, but it is not required in
most applications because of the high PSRR of this device.
Input Capacitors (CI)
The LPA2104 does not require input coupling capacitors if
the design uses a differential source that is biased from 0.5
V to VDD – 0.8 V (shown in Figure 31). If the input signal
is not biased within the recommended common –mode
input range, if needing to use the input as a high pass filter
(shown in Figure 32), or if using a single-ended source
(shown in Figure 33), input coupling capacitors are
required.
The input capacitors and input resistors form a high-pass
filter with the corner frequency, fc, determined in equation
(2).
Summing Input Signals
Most wireless phones or PDAs need to sum signals at the
audio power amplifier or just have two signal sources that
need separate gain. The LPA2104 makes it easy to sum
signals or use separate signal sources with different gains.
Many phones now use the same speaker for the earpiece
and ringer, where the wireless phone would require a much
lower gain for the phone earpiece than for the ringer. PDAs
and phones that have stereo headphones require summing
of the right and left channels to output the stereo signal to
the mono speaker.
Summing Two Differential Input Signals
Two extra resistors are needed for summing differential
signals (a total of 5 components). The gain for each input
source can be set independently (see equations (4) and(5),
and Figure 33).
If summing left and right inputs with a gain of 1 V/V, use
RI1 = RI2 = 300 k
If summing a ring tone and a phone signal, set the
ring-tone gain to Gain 2 = 2 V/V, and the phone gain to
Gain 1 = 0.1 V/V. The resistor values would be. . .
RI1=3MΩ, and=RI2=150kΩ
The value of the input capacitor is important to consider as
it directly affects the bass (low frequency) performance of
the circuit. Speakers in wireless phones cannot usually
respond well to low frequencies, so the corner frequency
can be set to block low frequencies in this
application.Equation (3) is reconfigured to solve for the
input coupling capacitance.
If the corner frequency is within the audio band, the
capacitors should have a tolerance of ± 10% or better,
because any mismatch in capacitance causes an impedance
mismatch at the corner frequency and below.
For a flat low-frequency response, use large input coupling
capacitors (1 µF). However, in a GSM phone the ground
signal is fluctuating at 217 Hz, but the signal from the
codec does not have the same 217 Hz fluctuation. The
difference between the two signals is amplified, sent to the
speaker, and heard as a 217 Hz hum.

Summing Two Single-Ended Input Signals
Four resistors and three capacitors are needed for summing
single-ended input signals. The gain and corner frequencies
(fc 1 and fc2) for each input source can be set
independently (see equations (9) through (12), and Figure
35). Resistor, RP, and capacitor, CP, are needed on the IN+
terminal to match the impedance on the IN– terminal. The
single-ended inputs must be driven by low impedance
sources even if one of the inputs is not outputting an ac
signal.

Layout Considerations
As output power increases, interconnect resistance (PCB traces and wires) between the amplifier, load and power supply
create a voltage drop. The voltage loss on the traces between the LPA2104 and the load results is lower output power and
decreased efficiency. Higher trace resistance between the supply and the LPA2104 has the same effect as a poorly regulated
supply, increase ripple on the supply line also reducing the peak output power. The effects of residual trace resistance
increases as output current increases due to higher output power, decreased load impedance or both. To maintain the
highest output voltage swing and corresponding peak output power, the PCB traces that connect the output pins to the
load and the supply pins to the power supply should be as wide as possible to minimize trace resistance.
The use of power and ground planes will give the best THD+N performance. While reducing trace resistance, the use of
power planes also creates parasite capacitors that help to filter the power supply line.
The inductive nature of the transducer load can also result in overshoot on one or both edges, clamped by the parasitic
diodes to GND and VDD in each case. From an EMI stand- point, this is an aggressive waveform that can radiate or
conduct to other components in the system and cause interference. It is essential to keep the power and output traces short
and well shielded if possible. Use of ground planes, beads, and micro-strip layout techniques are all useful in preventing
unwanted interference.
As the distance from the LPA2104 and the speaker increase, the amount of EMI radiation will increase since the output
wires or traces acting as antenna become more efficient with length. What is acceptable EMI is highly application specific.
Ferrite chip inductors placed close to the LPA2104 may be needed to reduce EMI radiation. The value of the ferrite
chip is very application specific.
