NSC LM49100

LM49100
Mono Class AB Audio Subsystem with a True-Ground
Headphone Amplifier
General Description
Key Specifications
The LM49100 is a fully integrated audio subsystem capable
of delivering 1.275W of continuous average power into a
mono 8Ω bridged-tied load (BTL) with 1% THD+N and with a
5V power supply. The LM49100 also has a stereo true-ground
headphone amplifier capable of 50mW per channel of continuous average power into a 32Ω single-ended (SE) loads
with 1% THD+N.
The LM49100 has three input channels. One pair of SE inputs
can be used with a stereo signal. The other input channel is
fully differential and may be used with a mono input signal.
The LM49100 features a 32-step digital volume control and
ten distinct output modes. The mixer, volume control, and device mode select are controlled through an I2C compatible
interface.
Thermal overload protection prevent the device from being
damaged during fault conditions. Superior click and pop suppression eliminates audible transients on power-up/down and
during shutdown.

Note 1: All voltages are measured with respect to the GND pin unless other wise specified.
Note 2: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional but do not guarantee specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC and AC electrical specifications under particular test conditions
which guarantee specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the Operating Ratings. Specifications are not guaranteed for parameters
where no limit is given, however, the typical value is a good indication of device performance.
Note 3: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJMAX, θJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum
allowable power dissipation is PDMAX = (TJMAX – TA)/ θJA or the number given in Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. For the LM49100, see power
derating currents for more information.
Note 4: Human body model, 100 pF discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor.
Note 5: Machine Model, 220pF - 240pF discharged through all pins.
Note 6: Typicals are measured at 25°C and represent the parametric norm.
Note 7: Limits are guaranteed to National’s AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality Level).
Note 8: Please refer to Figure 3 (I2C Timing Diagram).

LM49100
TABLE 4. Mono/Stereo Left/Stereo Right Input Gain Control
LM49100
Application Information
are of the form 111110X10 (binary), where X1 = 0, if ADDR pin
is logic LOW; and X1 = 1, if ADDR pin is logic HIGH. If the
I2C interface is used to address a number of chips in a system,
the LM49100's chip address can be changed to avoid any
possible address conflicts.
The bus format for the I2C interface is shown in Figure 2. The
bus format diagram is broken up into six major sections:
The "start" signal is generated by lowering the data signal
while the clock signal is HIGH. The start signal will alert all
devices attached to the I2C bus to check the incoming address
against their own address.
The 8-bit chip address is sent next, most significant bit first.
The data is latched in on the rising edge of the clock. Each
address bit must be stable while the clock level is HIGH.
After the last bit of the address bit is sent, the master releases
the data line HIGH (through a pull-up resistor). Then the master sends an acknowledge clock pulse. If the LM49100 has
received the address correctly, then it holds the data line LOW
during the clock pulse. If the data line is not held LOW during
the acknowledge clock pulse, then the master should abort
the rest of the data transfer to the LM49100.
The 8 bits of data are sent next, most significant bit first. Each
data bit should be valid while the clock level is stable HIGH.
After the data byte is sent, the master must check for another
acknowledge to see if the LM49100 received the data.
If the master has more data bytes to send to the LM49100,
then the master can repeat the previous two steps until all
data bytes have been sent.
The "stop" signal ends the transfer. To signal "stop", the data
signal goes HIGH while the clock signal is HIGH. The data
line should be held HIGH when not in use.
MINIMIZING CLICK AND POP
To minimize the audible click and pop heard through a headphone, maximize the input signal through the corresponding
volume (gain) control registers and adjust the output amplifier
gain accordingly to achieve the user’s desired signal gain. For
example, setting the output of the headphone amplifier to
-24dB and setting the input volume control gain to 24dB will
reduce the output offset from 7mV (typical) to 2.2mV (typical).
This will reduce the audible click and pop noise significantly
while maintaining a 0dB signal gain.
SIGNAL GROUND NOISE
The LM49100 has proprietary suppression circuitry, which
provides an additional -50dB (typical) attenuation of the headphone ground noise and its incursion into the headphone. For
optimum utilization of this feature the headphone jack ground
should connect to the AGND (E3) bump.

PIN DESCRIPTION
SDA: This is the serial data input pin.
SCL: This is the clock input pin.
ADDR: This is the address select input pin.
I2C COMPATIBLE INTERFACE
The LM49100 uses a serial bus which conforms to the I2C
protocol to control the chip's functions with two wires: clock
(SCL) and data (SDA). The clock line is uni-directional. The
data line is bi-directional (open-collector). The LM49100's
I2C compatible interface supports standard (100kHz) and fast
(400kHz) I2C modes. In this discussion, the master is the
controlling microcontroller and the slave is the LM49100.
The I2C address for the LM49100 is determined using the
ADDR pin. The LM49100's two possible I2C chip addresses
I2C INTERFACE POWER SUPPLY PIN (VDDI2C)
The LM49100's I2C interface is powered up through theVDD
I2C pin. The LM49100's I2C interface operates at a voltage
level set by the VDD I2C pin which can be set independent to
that of the main power supply pin VDD. This is ideal whenever
logic levels for the I2C interface are dictated by a microcontroller or microprocessor that is operating at a lower supply
voltage than the main battery of a portable system.

PCB LAYOUT AND SUPPLY REGULATION
CONSIDERATIONS FOR DRIVING 8Ω LOAD
Power dissipated by a load is a function of the voltage swing
across the load and the load's impedance. As load impedance
decreases, load dissipation becomes increasingly dependent
on the interconnect (PCB trace and wire) resistance between
the amplifier output pins and the load's connections. Residual
trace resistance causes a voltage drop, which results in power
dissipated in the trace and not in the load as desired. For example, 0.1Ω trace resistance reduces the output power dissipated by an 8Ω load from 158.3mW to 156.4mW. The
problem of decreased load dissipation is exacerbated as load
impedance decreases. Therefore, to maintain the highest
load dissipation and widest output voltage swing, PCB traces
that connect the output pins to a load must be as wide as
possible.
Poor power supply regulation adversely affects maximum
output power. A poorly regulated supply's output voltage decreases with increasing load current. Reduced supply voltage
causes decreased headroom, output signal clipping, and reduced output power. Even with tightly regulated supplies,
trace resistance creates the same effects as poor supply regulation. Therefore, making the power supply traces as wide
as possible helps maintain full output voltage swing.
Another advantage of the differential bridge output is no net
DC voltage across the load. This is accomplished by biasing
LS- and LS+ outputs at half-supply. This eliminates the coupling capacitor that single supply, single-ended amplifiers
require. Eliminating an output coupling capacitor in a typical
single-ended configuration forces a single-supply amplifier's
half-supply bias voltage across the load. This increases internal IC power dissipation and may permanently damage
loads such as speakers.
BRIDGE CONFIGURATION EXPLANATION
The LM49100 drives a load, such as a speaker, connected
between outputs, LS+ and LS-.
This results in both amplifiers producing signals identical in
magnitude, but 180° out of phase. Taking advantage of this
phase difference, a load is placed between LS- and LS+ and
driven differentially (commonly referred to as ”bridge mode”).
Bridge mode amplifiers are different from single-ended amplifiers that drive loads connected between a single amplifier's
output and ground. For a given supply voltage, bridge mode
has a distinct advantage over the single-ended configuration:
its differential output doubles the voltage swing across the
load. Theoretically, this produces four times the output power
when compared to a single-ended amplifier under the same
conditions. This increase in attainable output power assumes
that the amplifier is not current limited and that the output signal is not clipped.
The LM49100 also has a pair of single-ended amplifiers driving stereo headphones, HPR and HPL. The maximum internal power dissipation for HPR and HPL is given by equation
(2). Assuming a 2.8V power supply and a 32Ω load, the maximum power dissipation for LOUT and ROUT is 49mW, or 99mW
total.
POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a successful single-ended or bridged amplifier.
A direct consequence of the increased power delivered to the
load by a bridge amplifier is higher internal power dissipation.
The LM49100 has a pair of bridged-tied amplifiers driving a
handsfree speaker, LS. The maximum internal power dissipation operating in the bridge mode is twice that of a singleended amplifier. From Equation (1), assuming a 5V power
supply and an 8Ω load, the maximum MONO power dissipation is 634mW.
PDMAX-LS = 4(VDD)2 / (2π2 RL): Bridge Mode
PDMAX-HPL = 4(VDDHP)2 / (2π2 RL): Single-ended Mode
(1)
(2)
The maximum internal power dissipation of the LM49100 occurs when all three amplifiers pairs are simultaneously on;
and is given by Equation (3).
PDMAX-TOTAL =
PDMAX-LS + PDMAX-HPL + PDMAX-HPR
(3)
The maximum power dissipation point given by Equation (3)
must not exceed the power dissipation given by Equation (4):

PDMAX = (TJMAX - TA) / θJA
1µF in parallel with a 0.1µF filter capacitors to stabilize the
regulator's output, reduce noise on the supply line, and improve the supply's transient response. However, their presence does not eliminate the need for a local 4.7µF tantalum
bypass capacitor and a parallel 0.1µF ceramic capacitor connected between the LM49100's supply pin and ground. Keep
the length of leads and traces that connect capacitors between the LM49100's power supply pin and ground as short
as possible.
(4)
The LM49100's TJMAX = 150°C. In the GR package, the
LM49100's θJA is 50.2°C/W. At any given ambient temperature TA, use Equation (4) to find the maximum internal power
dissipation supported by the IC packaging. Rearranging
Equation (4) and substituting PDMAX-TOTAL for PDMAX results in
Equation (5). This equation gives the maximum ambient temperature that still allows maximum stereo power dissipation
without violating the LM49100's maximum junction temperature.
TA = TJMAX - PDMAX-TOTAL θJA
SELECTING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Input Capacitor Value Selection
Amplifying the lowest audio frequencies requires high value
input coupling capacitor (CIN in Figure 1). A high value capacitor can be expensive and may compromise space efficiency in portable designs. In many cases, however, the
speakers used in portable systems, whether internal or external, have little ability to reproduce signals below 150Hz.
Applications using speakers and headphones with this limited
frequency response reap little improvement by using large input capacitor.
The internal input resistor (Ri), typical 12.5kΩ, and the input
capacitor (CIN) produce a high pass filter cutoff frequency that
is found using Equation (7).
(5)
For a typical application with a 5V power supply and an 8Ω
load, the maximum ambient temperature that allows maximum mono power dissipation without exceeding the maximum junction temperature is approximately 114°C for the GR
package.
TJMAX = PDMAX-TOTAL θJA + TA
(6)
Equation (6) gives the maximum junction temperature
TJMAX. If the result violates the LM49100's 150°C, reduce the
maximum junction temperature by reducing the power supply
voltage or increasing the load resistance. Further allowance
should be made for increased ambient temperatures.
The above examples assume that a device is a surface mount
part operating around the maximum power dissipation point.
Since internal power dissipation is a function of output power,
higher ambient temperatures are allowed as output power or
duty cycle decreases. If the result of Equation (3) is greater
than that of Equation (4), then decrease the supply voltage,
increase the load impedance, or reduce the ambient temperature. If these measures are insufficient, a heat sink can be
added to reduce θJA. The heat sink can be created using additional copper area around the package, with connections to
the ground pin(s), supply pin and amplifier output pins.
fc = 1 / (2πRiCIN)
Bypass Capacitor Value Selection
Besides minimizing the input capacitor size, careful consideration should be paid to value of CB, the capacitor connected
to the BYPASS pin. Since CB determines how fast the
LM49100 settles to quiescent operation, its value is critical
when minimizing turn-on pops. Choosing CB equal to 2.2µF
along with a small value of Ci (in the range of 0.1µF to 0.33µF),
produces a click-less and pop-less shutdown function. As discussed above, choosing CIN no larger than necessary for the
desired bandwidth helps minimize clicks and pops. CB's value
should be in the range of 4 to 5 times the value of CIN . This
ensures that output transients are eliminated when power is
first applied or the LM49100 resumes operation after shutdown.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
As with any power amplifier, proper supply bypassing is critical for low noise performance and high power supply rejection. Applications that employ a 5V regulator typically use a
