DESCRIPTION
The TAS5111 is a high-performance digital amplifier power
stage designed to drive a 4-Ω speaker up to 70 W with
0.2% distortion plus noise. The device incorporates TI’s
PurePath Digital technology and is used with a digital
audio PWM processor (TAS50XX) and a simple passive
demodulation filter to deliver high-quality, high-efficiency
digital audio amplification.
The efficiency of this digital amplifier can be greater than
90%, depending on the system design. Overcurrent
protection, overtemperature protection, and undervoltage
protection are built into the TAS5111, safeguarding the
device and speakers against fault conditions that could
damage the system.

(1) The TAS5111 package is thermally enhanced for conductive
cooling using an exposed metal pad area. It is impractical to use the
device with the pad exposed to ambient air as the only means for
heat dissipation.
For this reason, RθJA, a system parameter that characterizes the
thermal treatment, is provided in the Application Information section
of the data sheet. An example and discussion of typical system
RθJA values are provided in the Thermal Information section. This
example provides additional information regarding the power
dissipation ratings. This example should be used as a reference to
calculate the heat dissipation ratings for a specific application. TI
application engineering provides technical support to design
heatsinks if needed. Also, for additional general information on
PowerPad packages, see TI document SLMA002.

(1) To optimize device performance and prevent overcurrent (OC) protection tripping, the demodulation filter must be designed with special care. See
Demodulation Filter Design in the Application Information section of the data sheet and consider the recommended inductors and capacitors for
optimal performance. It is also important to consider PCB design and layout for optimum performance of the TAS5111. It is recommended to follow
the TAS5026-5111KEVM (S/N 001) design and layout guidelines for best performance.

THEORY OF OPERATION
POWER SUPPLIES
The power device only requires two supply voltages,
GVDD and PVDD_X.
GVDD is the gate drive supply for the device, regulated
internally down to approximately 12 V, and decoupled with
regards to board GND on the GREG pins through an
external capacitor. GREG powers both the low side and
high side via a bootstrap step-up conversion. The
bootstrap supply is charged after the first low-side turnon
pulse. Internal digital core voltage DREG is also derived
from GVDD and regulated down by internal LDRs to 3.3 V.
The gate-driver LDR can be bypassed for reducing idle
loss in the device by shorting GREG to GVDD and directly
feeding in 12 V. This can be useful in an application where
thermal conduction of heat from the device is difficult.
Bypassing the LDR reduces dissipation by approximately
1 W at 30-V GVDD input.
PVDD_X is the H-bridge power supply pin. Two power
pins exist for each half-bridge to handle the current density.
It is important that the circuitry recommendations around
the PVDD_X pins are followed carefully both topologyand layout-wise. For topology recommendations, see the
Typical System Configuration section. For layout
recommendations, see the reference design layout for the
TAS5111. Following these recommendations is important
for parameters like EMI, reliability, and performance.
POWERING UP
ground. This precharges the bootstrap supply capacitors
and discharges the output filter capacitor (see the Typical
TAS5111 Application Configuration section).
After GVDD has been applied, it takes approximately 800
µs to fully charge the BST capacitor. Within this time,
RESET must be kept low. After approximately 1 ms, the
back-end bootstrap capacitor is charged.
RESET can now be released if the modulator is powered
up and streaming valid PWM signals to the back-end
PWM_xP. Valid means a switching PWM signal which
complies with the frequency and duty cycle ranges stated
in the Recommended Operating Conditions.
A constant HIGH dc level on the PWM_xP is not permitted,
because it would force the high-side MOSFET ON until it
eventually runs out of BST capacitor energy and might
damage the device.
An unknown state of the PWM output signals from the
modulator is not permitted, which in practice means that
the PWM processor must be powered up and initialized
before RESET is de-asserted HIGH to the back end.
POWERING DOWN
For power down of the back end, an opposite approach is
necessary. The RESET must be asserted LOW before the
valid PWM signal is removed.
When TI TDAA modulators are used with TI TDAA back
ends, the correct timing control of RESET and PWM_xP
is performed by the modulator.
PRECAUTION
> 1 ms
> 1 ms
RESET
GVDD
The TAS5111 must always start up in the high-impedance
(Hi-Z) state. In this state, the bootstrap (BST) capacitor is
precharged by a resistor on each PWM output node to
ground. See the system configuration. This ensures that
the back end is ready for receiving PWM pulses, indicating
either HIGH- or LOW-side turnon after RESET is
de-asserted to the back end.
With the following pulldown resistor and BST capacitor
size, the charge time is:
PVDD_x
PWM_xP
NOTE: PVDD should not be powered up before GVDD.
During power up when RESET is asserted LOW, all
MOSFETs are turned off and the two internal half-bridges
are in the high-impedance state (Hi-Z). The bootstrap
capacitors supplying high-side gate drive are at this point
not charged. To comply with the click and pop scheme and
use of non-TI TDAA modulators, it is recommended to use
a 4-kΩ pulldown resistor on each PWM output node to
10
C = 33 nF, R = 4.7 kΩ
R × C × 5 = 775.5 µs
After GVDD has been applied, it takes approximately 800
µs to fully charge the BST capacitor. During this time,
RESET must be kept low. After approximately 1 ms, the
back-end BST is charged and ready. RESET can now be
released if the PWM modulator is ready and is streaming
valid PWM signals to the back end. Valid PWM signals are
switching PWM signals with a frequency between
350−400 kHz. A constant HIGH level on the PWM+ would
force the high side MOSFET ON until it eventually ran out
of BST capacitor energy. Putting the device in this
condition should be avoided.
www.ti.com
SLES049D − JULY 2003 − REVISED MARCH 2004
In practice, this means that the DVDD-to-PWM processor
(front-end) should be stable and initialization should be
completed before RESET is de-asserted to the back end.
The device can be recovered by toggling RESET low and
then high, after all errors are cleared.
CONTROL I/O
The device has individual forward current protection on
both high-side and low-side power stage FETs. The OC
protection works only with the demodulation filter present
at the output. See Filter Demodulation Design in the
Application Information section of the data sheet for design
constraints.
Shutdown Pin: SD
The SD pin functions as an output pin and is intended for
protection-mode signaling to, for example, a controller or
other front-end device. The pin is open-drain with an
internal pullup to DVDD.
The logic output is, as shown in the following table, a
combination of the device state and RESET input:
Overcurrent (OC) Protection

Not used
A dual temperature protection system asserts a warning
signal when the device junction temperature exceeds

DESCRIPTION
(1) SD is pulled high when RESET is asserted low independent of chip
state (i.e., protection mode). This is desirable to maintain
compatibility with some TI PWM front ends.
Temperature Warning Pin: OTW
The OTW pin gives a temperature warning signal when
temperature exceeds the set limit. The pin is of the
open-drain type with an internal pullup to DVDD.

DESCRIPTION

Overall Reporting
The SD pin, together with the OTW pin, gives chip state
information as described in Table 1.
Undervoltage lockout occurs when GVDD is insufficient
for proper device operation. The UV protection system
protects the device under power-up and power-down
situations. The UV protection circuits are shared by all
half-bridges.
Reset Function
The function of the reset input is twofold:
D
Reset is used for re-enabling operation after a
latching error event.
D
Reset is used for disabling output stage
switching (mute function).
In PMODEs where the reset input functions as the means
to re-enable operation after an error event, the error latch
is cleared on the falling edge of reset and normal operation
is resumed when reset goes high.

Chip Protection
The TAS5111 protection function is implemented in a
closed loop with, for example, a system controller or other
TI PWM processor (front-end) device. The TAS5111
contains three individual systems protecting the device
against misuse. All of the error events covered result in the
output stage being set in a high-impedance state (Hi-Z) for
maximum protection of the device and connected
equipment.
PROTECTION MODE
Autorecovery (AR) After Errors (PMODE0)
In autorecovery mode (PMODE0) the TAS5111 is
self-supported in handling of error situations. All protection
systems are active, setting the output stage in the
high-impedance state to protect the output stage and
connected equipment. However, after a short time the
device autorecovers, i.e., operation is automatically
resumed provided that the system is fully operational.
The autorecovery timing is set by counting PWM input
cycles, i.e., the timing is relative to the switching frequency.
The AR system is common to both half-bridges.

Timing and Function
Table 3. Output Mode Selection
The function of the autorecovery circuit is as follows:
1. An error event occurs and sets the
protection latch (output stage goes Hi-Z).
2. The counter is started.
3. After n/2 cycles, the protection latch is
cleared but the output stage remains Hi-Z
(identical to pulling RESET low).
4. After n cycles, operation is resumed
(identical to pulling RESET high) (n = 512).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
DEMODULATION FILTER DESIGN AND
SPIKE CONSIDERATIONS
The output square wave is susceptible to overshoots
(voltage spikes). The spike characteristics depend on
many elements, including silicon design and application
design and layout. The device should be able to handle
narrow spike pulses, less than 65 ns, up to 65 volts peak.
For more detailed information, see TI application note
SLEA025.
The TDAA amplifier outputs are driven by heavy-duty
DMOS transistors in an H-bridge configuration. These
transistors are either off or fully on, which reduces the
DMOS transistor on-state resistance, R(DMOSon), and
the power dissipated in the device, thereby increasing
efficiency.

The result is a square-wave output signal with a duty cycle
that is proportional to the amplitude of the audio signal. It
is recommended that a second-order LC filter be used to
recover the audio signal. For this application, EMI is
considered important; therefore, the selected filter is the
full-output type shown in Figure 10.

Latching Shutdown on All Errors (PMODE1)
In latching shutdown mode, all error situations result in a

by toggling the RESET pin.

Figure 10. Demodulation Filter
The main purpose of the output filter is to attenuate the
high-frequency switching component of the TDAA
amplifier while preserving the signals in the audio band.
Design of the demodulation filter affects the performance
of the power amplifier significantly. As a result, to ensure
proper operation of the overcurrent (OC) protection circuit
and meet the device THD+N specifications, the selection
of the inductors used in the output filter must be considered
according to the following. The rule is that the inductance
should remain stable within the range of peak current seen
at maximum output power and deliver at least 5 µH of
inductance at 15 A.
www.ti.com
SLES049D − JULY 2003 − REVISED MARCH 2004
If this rule is observed, the TAS5111 does not have
distortion issues due to the output inductors, and
overcurrent conditions do not occur due to inductor
saturation in the output filter.
Another parameter to be considered is the idle current loss
in the inductor. This can be measured or specified as
inductor dissipation (D). The target specification for
dissipation is less than 0.05.
In general, 10-µH inductors suffice for most applications.
The frequency response of the amplifier is slightly altered
by the change in output load resistance; however, unless
tight control of frequency response is necessary (better
than 0.5 dB), it is not necessary to deviate from 10 µH.
The graph in Figure 11 displays the inductance vs current
characteristics of two inductors that are recommended for
use with the TAS5111.
INDUCTANCE

CURRENT
The thermally augmented package provided with the
TAS5111 is designed to be interfaced directly to a heatsink
using a thermal interface compound (for example,
Wakefield Engineering type 126 thermal grease.) The
heatsink then absorbs heat from the ICs and couples it to
the local air. If the heatsink is carefully designed, this
process can reach equilibrium and heat can be continually
removed from the ICs. Because of the efficiency of the
TAS5111, heatsinks are smaller than those required for
linear amplifiers of equivalent performance.
RθJA is a system thermal resistance from junction to
ambient air. As such, it is a system parameter with roughly
the following components:
D
RθJC (the thermal resistance from junction to
case, or in this case the metal pad)
D
D
Thermal grease thermal resistance
Heatsink thermal resistance
RθJC has been provided in the General Information
section.
11
The thermal grease thermal resistance can be calculated
from the exposed pad area and the thermal grease
manufacturer’s area thermal resistance (expressed in
°C-in2/W). The area thermal resistance of the example
thermal grease with a 0.001-inch thick layer is about
0.054°C-in2/W. The approximate exposed pad area is
0.0164 in2.

Dividing the example thermal grease area resistance by
the area of the pad gives the actual resistance through the
thermal grease, 3.3°C/W.

Heatsink thermal resistance is generally predicted by the
heatsink vendor, modeled using a continuous flow
dynamics (CFD) model, or measured.

Thus, for a single monaural IC, the system RθJA = RθJC +
thermal grease resistance + heatsink resistance.

Figure 11. Inductance Saturation
The selection of the capacitor that is placed across the
output of each inductor (C2 in Figure 10) is simple. To
complete the output filter, use a 0.47-µF capacitor with a
voltage rating at least twice the voltage applied to the
output stage (PVDD).
This capacitor should be a good quality polyester dielectric
such as a Wima MKS2-047ufd/100/10 or equivalent.
In order to minimize the EMI effect of unbalanced ripple
loss in the inductors, 0.1-µF, 50-V, SMD capacitors (X7R
or better) (C1A and C1B in Figure 10) should be added
from the output of each inductor to ground.
The following table indicates modeled parameters for one
TAS5111 IC on a heatsink. The junction temperature is set
at 110°C in both cases while delivering 70 W RMS into 4-Ω
loads with no clipping. It is assumed that the thermal
grease is about 0.001 inch thick (this is critical).

As an indication of the importance of keeping the thermal
grease layer thin, if the thermal grease layer increases to
0.002 inches thick, the required heatsink thermal
resistance changes to 2.4°C/W.

Other things that can affect the audible click level:
D
The spectrum of the click seems to follow the
speaker impedance vs. frequency curve—the
higher the impedance, the higher the click
energy.
D
Crossover filters used between woofer and
tweeter in a speaker can have high impedance
in the audio band, which should be avoided if
possible.
Another way to look at it is that the speaker impulse
response is a major contributor to how the click energy is
shaped in the audio band and how audible the click is.

reduction.

CLICK AND POP REDUCTION
Going from nonswitching to switching operation causes a
spectral energy burst to occur within the audio bandwidth,
which is heard in the speaker as an audible click, for
instance, after having asserted RESET LH during a
system start-up.
To make this system work properly, the following design
rules must be followed when using the TAS5111 back end:
D
D
14
The relative timing between the PWM_AP/M_x
signals and their corresponding VALID_x signal
should not be skewed by inserting delays,
because this increases the audible amplitude
level of the click.
The output stage must start switching from a
fully discharged output filter capacitor. Because
the output stage prior to operation is in the
high-impedance state, this is done by having a
passive pulldown resistor on each speaker
output to GND
(see Typical System
Configuration).
