SPiKe provides a dynamically optimized Safe Operating Area (SOA). SPiKe protection completely safeguards the LM4782's outputs against over-voltage, under-voltage, overloads, shorts to the supplies or GND, thermal runaway and instantaneous temperature peaks. The advanced protection features of the LM4782 places it in a class above discrete and hybrid amplifiers. Each amplifier of the LM4782 has an independent smooth transition fade-in/out mute and a power conserving standby mode. The mute and standby modes can be controlled by external logic. The LM4782 can easily be configured for bridge or parallel operation for higher power and bi-amp solutions. 1 2 3 Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of Texas Instruments semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.

The Differential Input Voltage Absolute Maximum Rating is based on supply voltages V+ = 27V and V-= - 27V. The maximum power dissipation must be de-rated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJMAX, θJC, and the ambient temperature TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation is PDMAX = (TJMAX -TA)/θJC or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. For the LM4782, TJMAX = 150°C and the typical θJC is 1.0°C/W. Refer to the DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK section for more information. Human body model, 100pF discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor.

Interaction may occur for components whose reactances are in close proximity to one another. One example would be the coupling capacitor, CC, and the compensation capacitor, Cf.

If the mute pins are connected to a logic-low voltage, the amplifiers will be in a non-muted state. There are three mute pins, one for each amplifier, so that one channel can be muted without muting the other if the application requires such a configuration. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics section for curves concerning Mute Attenuation vs Mute Pin Voltage. STANDBY MODE The standby mode of the LM4782 allows the user to drastically reduce power consumption when the amplifiers are idle. By placing a logic-high voltage on the standby pins, the amplifiers will go into Standby Mode. In this mode, the current drawn from the VCC supply is typically less than 30μA total for all amplifiers. The current drawn from the VEE supply is typically 8mA. Clearly, there is a significant reduction in idle power consumption when using the standby mode. There are three Standby pins, so that one channel can be put in standby mode without putting the other amplifier in standby if the application requires such flexibility. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics section for curves showing Supply Current vs. Standby Pin Voltage for both supplies. UNDER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION Upon system power-up, the under-voltage protection circuitry allows the power supplies and their corresponding capacitors to come up close to their full values before turning on the LM4782. Since the supplies have essentially settled to their final value, no DC output spikes occur. At power down, the outputs of the LM4782 are forced to ground before the power supply voltages fully decay preventing transients on the output. OVER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION The LM4782 contains over-voltage protection circuitry that limits the output current while also providing voltage clamping. The clamp does not, however, use internal clamping diodes. The clamping effect is quite the same as diodes because the output transistors are designed to work alternately by sinking large current spikes. SPiKe PROTECTION The LM4782 is protected from instantaneous peak-temperature stressing of the power transistor array. The Safe Operating graph in the Typical Performance Characteristics section shows the area of device operation where SPiKe Protection Circuitry is not enabled. The SPiKe Protection Response waveform graph shows the waveform distortion when SPiKe is enabled. Please refer to AN-898 (Literature Number SNAA008) for more detailed information. THERMAL PROTECTION The LM4782 has a sophisticated thermal protection scheme to prevent long-term thermal stress of the device. When the temperature on the die exceeds 150°C, the LM4782 shuts down. It starts operating again when the die temperature drops to about 145°C, but if the temperature again begins to rise, shutdown will occur again above 150°C. Therefore, the device is allowed to heat up to a relatively high temperature if the fault condition is temporary, but a sustained fault will cause the device to cycle in a Schmitt Trigger fashion between the thermal shutdown temperature limits of 150°C and 145°C. This greatly reduces the stress imposed on the IC by thermal cycling, which in turn improves its reliability under sustained fault conditions. Since the die temperature is directly dependent upon the heat sink used, the heat sink should be chosen so that thermal shutdown is not activated during normal operation. Using the best heat sink possible within the cost and space constraints of the system will improve the long-term reliability of any power semiconductor device, as discussed in the DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK section. DETERMlNlNG MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION Power dissipation within the integrated circuit package is a very important parameter requiring a thorough understanding if optimum power output is to be obtained. An incorrect maximum power dissipation calculation may result in inadequate heat sinking causing thermal shutdown and thus limiting the output power. Equation 1 shows the theoretical maximum power dissipation point for each amplifier in a single-ended configuration where VCC is the total supply voltage. Copyright © 2004–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM4782 LM4782TABD Submit Documentation Feedback 17 LM4782, LM4782TABD SNAS231B – FEBRUARY 2004 – REVISED MARCH 2013 www.ti.com PDMAX = (VCC)2 / 2π2RL (1) Thus by knowing the total supply voltage and rated output load, the maximum power dissipation point can be calculated. The package dissipation is three times the number which results from Equation 1 since there are three amplifiers in each LM4782. Refer to the graphs of Power Dissipation versus Output Power in theTypical Performance Characteristics section which show the actual full range of power dissipation not just the maximum theoretical point that results from Equation 1. DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK The choice of a heat sink for a high-power audio amplifier is made entirely to keep the die temperature at a level such that the thermal protection circuitry is not activated under normal circumstances. The thermal resistance from the die to the outside air, θJA (junction to ambient), is a combination of three thermal resistances, θJC (junction to case), θCS (case to sink), and θSA (sink to ambient). The thermal resistance, θJC (junction to case), of the LM4782TA is 1.0°C/W. Using Thermalloy Thermacote thermal compound, the thermal resistance, θCS (case to sink), is about 0.2°C/W. Since convection heat flow (power dissipation) is analogous to current flow, thermal resistance is analogous to electrical resistance, and temperature drops are analogous to voltage drops, the power dissipation out of the LM4782 is equal to the following: PDMAX = (TJMAX−TAMB) / θJA (2) where TJMAX = 150°C, TAMB is the system ambient temperature and θJA = θJC + θCS + θSA. Once the maximum package power dissipation has been calculated using Equation 2, the maximum thermal resistance, θSA, (heat sink to ambient) in °C/W for a heat sink can be calculated. This calculation is made using Equation 4 which is derived by solving for θSA in Equation 3. θSA = [(TJMAX−TAMB)−PDMAX(θJC +θCS)] / PDMAX (3) Again it must be noted that the value of θSA is dependent upon the system designer's amplifier requirements. If the ambient temperature that the audio amplifier is to be working under is higher than 25°C, then the thermal resistance for the heat sink, given all other things are equal, will need to be smaller. SUPPLY BYPASSING The LM4782 has excellent power supply rejection and does not require a regulated supply. However, to improve system performance as well as eliminate possible oscillations, the LM4782 should have its supply leads bypassed with low-inductance capacitors having short leads that are located close to the package terminals. Inadequate power supply bypassing will manifest itself by a low frequency oscillation known as “motorboating” or by high frequency instabilities. These instabilities can be eliminated through multiple bypassing utilizing a large tantalum or electrolytic capacitor (10μF or larger) which is used to absorb low frequency variations and a small ceramic capacitor (0.1μF) to prevent any high frequency feedback through the power supply lines. If adequate bypassing is not provided, the current in the supply leads which is a rectified component of the load current may be fed back into internal circuitry. This signal causes distortion at high frequencies requiring that the supplies be bypassed at the package terminals. It is recommended that a ceramic 0.1μF capacitor and an electrolytic or tantalum 10μF or larger capacitor be placed as close as possible to the IC's supply pins and then an additional electrolytic capacitor of 470μF or more on each supply line. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2004–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM4782 LM4782TABD LM4782, LM4782TABD www.ti.com SNAS231B – FEBRUARY 2004 – REVISED MARCH 2013 BRIDGED AMPLIFIER APPLICATION The LM4782 has three operational amplifiers internally, allowing for a few different amplifier configurations. One of these configurations is referred to as “bridged mode” and involves driving the load differentially through two of the LM4782's outputs. This configuration is shown in Figure 3. Bridged mode operation is different from the classical single-ended amplifier configuration where one side of its load is connected to ground. A bridge amplifier design has a distinct advantage over the single-ended configuration, as it provides differential drive to the load, thus doubling output swing for a specified supply voltage. Theoretically, four times the output power is possible as compared to a single-ended amplifier under the same conditions. This increase in attainable output power assumes that the amplifier is not current limited or clipped. A direct consequence of the increased power delivered to the load by a bridge amplifier is an increase in internal power dissipation. For each operational amplifier in a bridge configuration, the internal power dissipation will increase by a factor of two over the single ended dissipation. Using Equation 2 the load impedance should be divided by a factor of two to find the maximum power dissipation point for each amplifier in a bridge configuration. In the case of an 8Ω load in a bridge configuration, the value used for RL in Equation 2 would be 4Ω for each amplifier in the bridge. When using two of the amplifiers of the LM4782 in bridge mode, the third amplifier should have a load impedance equal to or higher than the equivalent impedance seen by each of the bridged amplifiers. In the example above where the bridge load is 8Ω and each amplifier in the bridge sees a load value of 4Ω then the third amplifier should also have a 4Ω load impedance or higher. Using a lower load impedance on the third amplifier will result in higher power dissipation in the third amplifier than the other two amplifiers and may result in unwanted activation of thermal shut down on the third amplifier. Once the impedance seen by each amplifier is known then Equation 2 can be used to calculated the value of PDMAX for each amplifier. The PDMAX of the IC package is found by adding up the power dissipation for each amplifier within the IC package. This value of PDMAX can be used to calculate the correct size heat sink for a bridged amplifier application. Since the internal dissipation for a given power supply and load is increased by using bridged-mode, the heatsink's θSA will have to decrease accordingly as shown by Equation 4. Refer to the section, DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK for a more detailed discussion of proper heat sinking for a given application. PARALLEL AMPLIFIER APPLICATION Parallel configuration is normally used when higher output current is needed for driving lower impedance loads (i.e. 4Ω or lower) to obtain higher output power levels. As shown in Figure 4 , the parallel amplifier configuration consist of designing the amplifiers in the IC to have identical gain, connecting the inputs in parallel and then connecting the outputs in parallel through a small external output resistor. Any number of amplifiers can be connected in parallel to obtain the needed output current or to divide the power dissipation across multiple IC packages. Ideally, each amplifier shares the output current equally. Due to slight differences in gain the current sharing will not be equal among all channels. If current is not shared equally among all channels then the power dissipation will also not be equal among all channels. It is recommended that 0.1% tolerance resistors be used to set the gain (Ri and Rf) for a minimal amount of difference in current sharing. When operating two or more amplifiers in parallel mode the impedance seen by each amplifier is equal to the total load impedance multiplied by the number of amplifiers driving the load in parallel as shown by Equation 4 below: RL(parallel) = RL(total) * Number of amplifiers (4) Once the impedance seen by each amplifier in the parallel configuration is known then Equation 2 can be used with this calculated impedance to find the amount of power dissipation for each amplifier. Total power dissipation (PDMAX) within an IC package is found by adding up the power dissipation for each amplifier in the IC package. Using the calculated PDMAX the correct heat sink size can be determined. Refer to the section, DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK, for more information and detailed discussion of proper heat sinking. If only two amplifiers of the LM4782 are used in parallel mode then the third amplifier should have a load impedance equal to or higher than the equivalent impedance seen by each of the amplifiers in parallel mode. Having the same load impedance on all amplifiers means that the power dissipation in each amplifier will be equal. Using a lower load impedance on the third amplifier will result in higher power dissipation in the third amplifier than the other two amplifiers and may result in unwanted activation of thermal shut down on the third amplifier. Having a higher impedance on the third amplifier than the equivalent impedance on the two amplifiers in parallel will reduce total IC package power dissipation reducing the heat sink size requirement.

For example, a two-way speaker enclosure might have a tweeter and a subwoofer. One amplifier would drive the tweeter and another would drive the subwoofer. One advantage is that the gain of each amplifier can be adjusted for the different driver sensitivities. Another advantage is the crossover can be designed before the amplifier stages with low cost op amps instead of large passive components. With the crossover before the amplifier stages no power is wasted in the passive crossover as each individual amplifier provides the correct frequencies for the driver. Tri-Amping is using three different amplifier stages in the same way bi-amping is done. Bi-amping can also be done on a three-way speaker design by using one amplifier for the subwoofer and another for the midrange and tweeter. The LM4782 is perfectly suited for bi-amp or tri-amp applications with it's three amplifiers. Two of the amplifiers can be configured for bridge or parallel mode to drive a subwoofer with the third amplifier driving the tweeter or tweeter and midrange. An example would be to use a 4Ω subwoofer and 8Ω tweeter/midrange with the LM4782 in parallel and single-ended modes. Each amplifier would see an 8Ω load but the subwoofer would have twice the output power as the tweeter/midrange. The gain of each amplifier may also be adjusted for the desired response. Using the LM4782 in a tri-amp configuration would allow the gain of each amplifier to be adjusted to achieve the desired speaker response. SINGLE-SUPPLY AMPLIFIER APPLICATION The typical application of the LM4782 is a split supply amplifier. But as shown in Figure 5, the LM4782 can also be used in a single power supply configuration. This involves using some external components to create a halfsupply bias which is used as the reference for the inputs and outputs. Thus, the signal will swing around halfsupply much like it swings around ground in a split-supply application. Along with proper circuit biasing, a few other considerations must be accounted for to take advantage of all of the LM4782 functions, like the mute function. The LM4782 possesses a mute and standby function with internal logic gates that are half-supply referenced. Thus, to enable either the Mute or Standby function, the voltage at these pins must be a minimum of 2.5V above half-supply. In single-supply systems, devices such as microprocessors and simple logic circuits used to control the mute and standby functions, are usually referenced to ground, not half-supply. Thus, to use these devices to control the logic circuitry of the LM4782, a “level shifter,” like the one shown in Figure 49, must be employed. A level shifter is not needed in a split-supply configuration since ground is also half-supply. Figure 49. Level Shift Circuit When the voltage at the Logic Input node is 0V, the 2N3904 is “off” and thus resistor Rc pulls up mute or standby input to the supply. This enables the mute or standby function. When the Logic Input is 5V, the 2N3904 is “on” and consequently, the voltage at the collector is essentially 0V. This will disable the mute or standby function, and thus the amplifier will be in its normal mode of operation. Rshift, along with Cshift, creates an RC time constant that reduces transients when the mute or standby functions are enabled or disabled. Additionally, Rshift limits the current supplied by the internal logic gates of the LM4782 which insures device reliability. Refer to the MUTE MODE and STANDBY MODE sections in the Application Information section for a more detailed description of these functions. 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2004–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM4782 LM4782TABD LM4782, LM4782TABD www.ti.com SNAS231B – FEBRUARY 2004 – REVISED MARCH 2013 CLICKS AND POPS In the typical application of the LM4782 as a split-supply audio power amplifier, the IC exhibits excellent “click” and “pop” performance when utilizing the mute and standby modes. In addition, the device employs UnderVoltage Protection, which eliminates unwanted power-up and power-down transients. The basis for these functions are a stable and constant half-supply potential. In a split-supply application, ground is the stable halfsupply potential. But in a single-supply application, the half-supply needs to charge up at the same rate as the supply rail, VCC. This makes the task of attaining a clickless and popless turn-on more challenging. Any uneven charging of the amplifier inputs will result in output clicks and pops due to the differential input topology of the LM4782. To achieve a transient free power-up and power-down, the voltage seen at the input terminals should be ideally the same. Such a signal will be common-mode in nature, and will be rejected by the LM4782. In Figure 5, the resistor RINP serves to keep the inputs at the same potential by limiting the voltage difference possible between the two nodes. This should significantly reduce any type of turn-on pop, due to an uneven charging of the amplifier inputs. This charging is based on a specific application loading and thus, the system designer may need to adjust these values for optimal performance. As shown in Figure 5, the resistors labeled RBI help bias up the LM4782 off the half-supply node at the emitter of the 2N3904. But due to the input and output coupling capacitors in the circuit, along with the negative feedback, there are two different values of RBI, namely 10kΩ and 200kΩ. These resistors bring up the inputs at the same rate resulting in a popless turn-on. Adjusting these resistors values slightly may reduce pops resulting from power supplies that ramp extremely quick or exhibit overshoot during system turn-on. PROPER SELECTION OF EXTERNAL COMPONENTS Proper selection of external components is required to meet the design targets of an application. The choice of external component values that will affect gain and low frequency response are discussed below. The gain of each amplifier is set by resistors Rf and Ri for the non-inverting configuration shown in Figure 1. The gain is found by Equation 5 below: AV = 1 + Rf / Ri (V/V) (5) For best noise performance, lower values of resistors are used. A value of 1kΩ is commonly used for Ri and then setting the value of Rf for the desired gain. For the LM4782 the gain should be set no lower than 10V/V and no higher than 50V/V. Gain settings below 10V/V may experience instability and using the LM4782 for gains higher than 50V/V will see an increase in noise and THD. The combination of Ri with Ci (see Figure 1) creates a high pass filter. The low frequency response is determined by these two components. The -3dB point can be found from Equation 6 shown below: fi = 1 / (2πRiCi) (Hz) (6) If an input coupling capacitor is used to block DC from the inputs as shown in Figure 6, there will be another high pass filter created with the combination of CIN and RIN. When using a input coupling capacitor RIN is needed to set the DC bias point on the amplifier's input terminal. The resulting -3dB frequency response due to the combination of CIN and RIN can be found from Equation 7 shown below: fIN = 1 / (2πRINCIN) (Hz) (7) With large values of RIN oscillations may be observed on the outputs when the inputs are left floating. Decreasing the value of RIN or not letting the inputs float will remove the oscillations. If the value of RIN is decreased then the value of CIN will need to increase in order to maintain the same -3dB frequency response. HIGH PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS Using low cost electrolytic capacitors in the signal path such as CIN and Ci (see Figure 1, Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 5, and Figure 6) will result in very good performance. However, electrolytic capacitors are less linear than other premium capacitors. Higher THD+N performance may be obtained by using high quality polypropylene capacitors in the signal path. A more cost effective solution may be the use of smaller value premium capacitors in parallel with the larger electrolytic capacitors. This will maintain signal quality in the upper audio band where any degradation is most noticeable while also coupling in the signals in the lower audio band for good bass response.

By using larger values of capacitors such that the -3dB point is well outside of the audio band will reduce this distortion and improve THD+N performance. Increasing the value of the large supply bypass capacitors will improve burst power output. The larger the supply bypass capacitors the higher the output pulse current without supply droop increasing the peak output power. This will also increase the headroom of the amplifier and reduce THD. SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO In the measurement of the signal-to-noise ratio, misinterpretations of the numbers actually measured are common. One amplifier may sound much quieter than another, but due to improper testing techniques, they appear equal in measurements. This is often the case when comparing integrated circuit designs to discrete amplifier designs. Discrete transistor amps often “run out of gain” at high frequencies and therefore have small bandwidths to noise as indicated below. Integrated circuits have additional open loop gain allowing additional feedback loop gain in order to lower harmonic distortion and improve frequency response. It is this additional bandwidth that can lead to erroneous signal-to-noise measurements if not considered during the measurement process. In the typical example above, the difference in bandwidth appears small on a log scale but the factor of 10in bandwidth, (200kHz to 2MHz) can result in a 10dB theoretical difference in the signal-to-noise ratio (white noise is proportional to the square root of the bandwidth in a system). In comparing audio amplifiers it is necessary to measure the magnitude of noise in the audible bandwidth by using a “weighting” filter (see Note below). A “weighting” filter alters the frequency response in order to compensate for the average human ear's sensitivity to the frequency spectra. The weighting filters at the same time provide the bandwidth limiting as discussed in the previous paragraph. NOTE CCIR/ARM: A Practical Noise Measurement Method; by Ray Dolby, David Robinson and Kenneth Gundry, AES Preprint No. 1353 (F-3). In addition to noise filtering, differing meter types give different noise readings. Meter responses include: 1. RMS reading, 2. average responding, 3. peak reading, and 4. quasi peak reading. Although theoretical noise analysis is derived using true RMS based calculations, most actual measurements are taken with ARM (Average Responding Meter) test equipment. Typical signal-to-noise figures are listed for an A-weighted filter which is commonly used in the measurement of noise. The shape of all weighting filters is similar, with the peak of the curve usually occurring in the 3kHz–7kHz region. LEAD INDUCTANCE Power op amps are sensitive to inductance in the output leads, particularly with heavy capacitive loading. Feedback to the input should be taken directly from the output terminal, minimizing common inductance with the load. 22 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2004–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM4782 LM4782TABD LM4782, LM4782TABD www.ti.com SNAS231B – FEBRUARY 2004 – REVISED MARCH 2013 Lead inductance can also cause voltage surges on the supplies. With long leads to the power supply, energy is stored in the lead inductance when the output is shorted. This energy can be dumped back into the supply bypass capacitors when the short is removed. The magnitude of this transient is reduced by increasing the size of the bypass capacitor near the IC. With at least a 20μF local bypass, these voltage surges are important only if the lead length exceeds a couple feet (>1μH lead inductance). Twisting together the supply and ground leads minimizes the effect. PHYSICAL IC MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS Mounting of the package to a heat sink must be done such that there is sufficient pressure from the mounting screws to insure good contact with the heat sink for efficient heat flow. Over tightening the mounting screws will cause the package to warp reducing contact area with the heat sink. Less contact with the heat sink will increase the thermal resistance from the package case to the heat sink (θCS) resulting in higher operating die temperatures and possible unwanted thermal shut down activation. Extreme over tightening of the mounting screws will cause severe physical stress resulting in cracked die and catastrophic IC failure. The recommended mounting screw size is M3 with a maximum torque of 50 N-cm. Additionally, it is best to use washers under the screws to distribute the force over a wider area or a screw with a wide flat head. To further distribute the mounting force a solid mounting bar in front of the package and secured in place with the two mounting screws may be used. Other mounting options include a spring clip. If the package is secured with pressure on the front of the package the maximum pressure on the molded plastic should not exceed 150N/mm2. Additionally, if the mounting screws are used to force the package into correct alignment with the heat sink, package stress will be increased. This increase in package stress will result in reduced contact area with the heat sink increasing die operating temperature and possible catastrophic IC failure. LAYOUT, GROUND LOOPS AND STABILITY The LM4782 is designed to be stable when operated at a closed-loop gain of 10 or greater, but as with any other high-current amplifier, the LM4782 can be made to oscillate under certain conditions. These oscillations usually involve printed circuit board layout or output/input coupling issues. When designing a layout, it is important to return the load ground, the output compensation ground, and the low level (feedback and input) grounds to the circuit board common ground point through separate paths. Otherwise, large currents flowing along a ground conductor will generate voltages on the conductor which can effectively act as signals at the input, resulting in high frequency oscillation or excessive distortion. It is advisable to keep the output compensation components and the 0.1μF supply decoupling capacitors as close as possible to the LM4782 to reduce the effects of PCB trace resistance and inductance. For the same reason, the ground return paths should be as short as possible. In general, with fast, high-current circuitry, all sorts of problems can arise from improper grounding which again can be avoided by returning all grounds separately to a common point. Without isolating the ground signals and returning the grounds to a common point, ground loops may occur. “Ground Loop” is the term used to describe situations occurring in ground systems where a difference in potential exists between two ground points. Ideally a ground is a ground, but unfortunately, in order for this to be true, ground conductors with zero resistance are necessary. Since real world ground leads possess finite resistance, currents running through them will cause finite voltage drops to exist. If two ground return lines tie into the same path at different points there will be a voltage drop between them. The first figure below, in Figure 50, shows a common ground example where the positive input ground and the load ground are returned to the supply ground point via the same wire. The addition of the finite wire resistance, R2, results in a voltage difference between the two points as shown below.

The load current IL will be much larger than input bias current II, thus V1 will follow the output voltage directly, i.e. in phase. Therefore the voltage appearing at the non-inverting input is effectively positive feedback and the circuit may oscillate. If there was only one device to worry about then the values of R1 and R2 would probably be small enough to be ignored; however, several devices normally comprise a total system. Any ground return of a separate device, whose output is in phase, can feedback in a similar manner and cause instabilities. Out of phase ground loops also are troublesome, causing unexpected gain and phase errors. The solution to most ground loop problems is to always use a single-point ground system, although this is sometimes impractical. The third figure above, in Figure 50, is an example of a single-point ground system. The single-point ground concept should be applied rigorously to all components and all circuits when possible. Violations of single-point grounding are most common among printed circuit board designs, since the circuit is surrounded by large ground areas which invite the temptation to run a device to the closest ground spot. As a final rule, make all ground returns low resistance and low inductance by using large wire and wide traces. Occasionally, current in the output leads (which function as antennas) can be coupled through the air to the amplifier input, resulting in high-frequency oscillation. This normally happens when the source impedance is high or the input leads are long. The problem can be eliminated by placing a small capacitor, CC, (on the order of 50pF to 500pF) across the LM4782 input terminals. Refer to the External Components Description section relating to component interaction with Cf. REACTIVE LOADING It is hard for most power amplifiers to drive highly capacitive loads very effectively and normally results in oscillations or ringing on the square wave response. If the output of the LM4782 is connected directly to a capacitor with no series resistance, the square wave response will exhibit ringing if the capacitance is greater than about 0.2μF. If highly capacitive loads are expected due to long speaker cables, a method commonly employed to protect amplifiers from low impedances at high frequencies is to couple to the load through a 10Ω resistor in parallel with a 0.7μH inductor. The inductor-resistor combination as shown in the Figure 6 isolates the feedback amplifier from the load by providing high output impedance at high frequencies thus allowing the 10Ω resistor to decouple the capacitive load and reduce the Q of the series resonant circuit. The LR combination also provides low output impedance at low frequencies thus shorting out the 10Ω resistor and allowing the amplifier to drive the series RC load (large capacitive load due to long speaker cables) directly. 24 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2004–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM4782 LM4782TABD LM4782, LM4782TABD www.ti.com SNAS231B – FEBRUARY 2004 – REVISED MARCH 2013 INVERTING AMPLIFIER APPLICATION The inverting amplifier configuration may be used instead of the more common non-inverting amplifier configuration shown in Figure 1.

In no event shall TI's liability arising out of such information exceed the total purchase price of the TI part(s) at issue in this document sold by TI to Customer on an annual basis. Addendum-Page 1 Samples PACKAGE OPTION ADDENDUM www.ti.com 16-Oct-2015 Addendum-Page 2 MECHANICAL DATA NDM0027A TA27A (Rev B) www.ti.com IMPORTANT NOTICE Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment. TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily performed. TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide adequate design and operating safeguards. TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI. Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of any TI components in safety-critical applications. In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms. No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use. Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use. TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
