Mono 7W Class D Amplifier
The MAX9737 mono 7W Class D amplifier provides a
high-performance, thermally efficient amplifier solution
that offers up to 88% efficiency at a 12V supply. The
device operates from 8V to 28V and provides a high 80dB
PSRR, eliminating the need for a regulated power supply.
Filterless modulation allows the MAX9737 to pass CE
EMI limits with 1m cables using only a low-cost ferrite
bead and small-value capacitor on each output.
Comprehensive click-and-pop suppression circuitry
reduces noise on power-up/down or into and out of
shutdown or mute.
An input op amp allows the user to create a lowpass or
highpass filter, and select an optimal gain. The internal
precharge circuit ensures clickless/popless turn-on
within 10ms.
The MAX9737 is available in the 24-pin, TQFN-EP package and is specified over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX9737 filterless, mono class D audio power
amplifier offers Class AB audio performance and Class
D efficiency with minimal board space. The device
operates from an 8V to 28V supply range.
The MAX9737 features filterless, spread-spectrum
modulation, externally set gain and a low-power shutdown mode that reduces supply current to less than
1µA. Comprehensive click-and-pop suppression and
precharge circuitry reduce noise into and out of shutdown or mute within 10ms.
Spread-Spectrum Modulation
The MAX9737 features a unique, patented spreadspectrum switching modulation that flattens EMI wideband spectral components, reducing radiated
emissions from the speaker and cables. The switching
frequency of the Class D amplifier varies randomly by
±4kHz around the 300kHz center frequency. Instead of
a large amount of spectral energy present at multiples
of the switching frequency, the energy is spread over a
bandwidth that increases with frequency. Above a few
MHz, the wideband spectrum looks like white noise for
EMI purposes. A proprietary amplifier topology ensures
this white noise does not corrupt the noise floor in the
audio bandwidth.
Efficiency
The high efficiency of a Class D amplifier is due to the
output transistors acting as switches and therefore consume negligible power. Power loss associated with the
Class D output stage is due to the MOSFET I2R losses,
switching losses, and quiescent current.
Although the theoretical best efficiency of a linear
amplifier is 78% at peak output power, under typical
music reproduction levels, the efficiency falls to below
40%. The MAX9737 exhibits > 80% efficiency under the
same conditions (Figure 1).
Shutdown
The MAX9737 features a shutdown mode that reduces
power consumption to less than 1µA (typ), extending
battery life in portable applications. Drive SHDN low to
place the device in low-power shutdown mode. In shutdown mode, the outputs are high impedance and the
common-mode voltage at the output decays to zero.

Pin Description
Mute Function
EFFICIENCY
vs. OUTPUT POWER
The MAX9737 features a mute mode where the signal is
attenuated at the speaker and the outputs stop switching. To mute the MAX9737, drive MUTE low.

Click-and-Pop Suppression
80
The MAX9737 features comprehensive click-and-pop
suppression and precharge circuitry that reduce audible transients on startup and shutdown. The precharge
circuit enables the amplifier within 10ms without any
clicks or pops. Connect PC between the input resistor
(RIN) and the input capacitor (CIN). For optimal clickand-pop suppression, use a 0.47µF input coupling
capacitor (CIN).

Current Limit
When output current exceeds the current limit, 4.6A
(typ), the MAX9737 disables the outputs and initiates a
450µs startup sequence. The shutdown and startup
sequence is repeated until the output fault is removed.
Properly designed applications do not enter currentlimit mode unless the output is short circuited or connected incorrectly.

Applications Information
Filterless Class D Operation
The MAX9737 meets EN55022B EMC radiation limits
with an inexpensive ferrite bead and capacitor filter
when the speaker leads are less than or equal to 1m
(Figure 3). Select a ferrite bead with 100Ω to 600Ω
impedance, and rated for 2A. The capacitor value
varies based on the ferrite bead chosen and the speaker lead length. See Figure 2 for the correct connections
of these components.

Thermal Shutdown
When the die temperature exceeds the thermal-shutdown threshold, +160°C (typ), the MAX9737 outputs
are disabled. When the die temperature decreases by
30°C, normal operation resumes. Some causes of thermal shutdown are excessively low load impedance,
poor thermal contact between the MAX9737’s exposed
pad and the PCB, elevated ambient temperature, or
poor PCB layout and assembly.

Component Selection
Gain-Setting Resistors
The output stage provides a fixed internal gain in addition to the externally set input stage gain. The fixed-output stage gain is set at 13.6dB (4.8V/V). Set overall gain
by using resistors RF and RIN (Figure 5) as follows:
⎛R ⎞
A V = -4.8 ⎜ F ⎟ V / V
⎝ RIN ⎠
where A V is the desired voltage gain. Choose R F
between 10kΩ and 50kΩ.
The PRE terminal is an operational amplifier output,
allowing the MAX9737 to be configured as a filter or an
equalizer.
Input Capacitor
An input capacitor, CIN, in conjunction with the input
resistor, RIN, of the MAX9737 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 negligible
source impedance, the -3dB point of the highpass filter
is given by:
f -3dB =

Inductor-Based Output Filters
Some applications use the MAX9737 with a full inductor/capacitor-based (LC) output filter. See Figure 4 for
the correct connections of these components.
The load impedance of the speaker determines the filter component selection (see Table 1).
Inductors L1 and L2 and capacitor C1 form the primary
output filter. Capacitors C2 and C3 provide commonmode filtering to reduce radiated emissions. Capacitors
C4 and C5, plus resistors R1 and R2, form a Zobel at
the output. A Zobel corrects the output loading to compensate for the rising impedance of the loudspeaker.
Without a Zobel, the filter exhibits peaking near the cutoff frequency.

MAX9737
When evaluating the MAX9737 with a ferrite bead filter
and resistive load, include a series inductor (68µH for
8Ω load and 33µH for 4Ω load) to model typical loudspeaker’s behavior. Omitting the series inductor
reduces the efficiency, the THD+N performance and
the output power of the MAX9737. When evaluating
with a loudspeaker, no series inductor is required.

Choose CIN such that f-3dB is well below the lowest frequency of interest. To reduce low-frequency distortion,
use capacitors whose dielectrics have low-voltage
coefficients. Capacitors with high-voltage coefficients
cause increased distortion close to f-3dB. For best clickand-pop suppression, use a 0.47µF input capacitor.
COM Capacitor
COM is the output of the internally generated DC bias
voltage. Bypass COM with a 1µF capacitor to AGND.
Regulator Capacitor
REG is the output of the internally generated DC bias
voltage. Bypass REG with a 1µF capacitor to AGND.
Power Supplies
The MAX9737 features separate supplies for signal and
power portions of the device, allowing for the optimum
combination of headroom, power dissipation and noise
immunity. The speaker amplifiers are powered from
PVDD and can range from 8V to 28V. The remainder of
the device is powered by an internal 5V regulator, VS.
Internal Regulator
The MAX9737 features an internal 5V regulator, VS,
powered from PVDD. Bypass VS with a 1µF capacitor to
AGND.

Supply Bypassing, Layout, and Grounding
Proper layout and grounding are essential for optimum
performance. Use wide traces for the power-supply
inputs and amplifier outputs to minimize losses due to
parasitic trace resistance. Proper grounding improves
audio performance, minimizes crosstalk between channels, and prevents switching noise from coupling into
the audio signal. Connect PGND and AGND together at
a single point on the PCB. Route all traces that carry
switching transients away from AGND and the
traces/components in the audio signal path.
Bypass PVDD with two 1µF capacitors to PGND. Place
the bypass capacitors as close as possible to the
MAX9737. Place a 100µF capacitor between PVDD and
PGND. Bypass VS, VCOM, and VREG with a 1µF capacitor
to AGND.

Use wide, low-resistance output traces. Current drawn
from the outputs increases as load impedance
decreases. High-output trace resistance decreases the
power delivered to the load. The MAX9737 TQFN package features an exposed thermal pad on its underside.
This pad lowers the package’s thermal resistance by
providing a heat conduction path from the die to the
PCB. Connect the exposed thermal pad to PGND by
using a large pad and multiple vias to the PGND plane.
