Maxim MAX9702BETI+ 1.8w, filterless, stereo, class d audio power amplifier and directdrive stereo headphone amplifier Datasheet

19-3608; Rev 0; 6/05
1.8W, Filterless, Stereo, Class D Audio Power
Amplifier and DirectDrive Stereo Headphone Amplifier
The MAX9702 combines a highly efficient Class D
speaker amplifier with a high-linearity Class AB headphone amplifier. This ensures maximum battery life in
speaker mode and maximum performance in headphone mode. The MAX9702 delivers up to 1.8W per
channel into an 8Ω load from a 5V power supply.
Maxim’s 2nd-generation, spread-spectrum modulation
scheme renders the traditional Class D output filter
unnecessary.
The MAX9702 speaker amplifier offers two modulation
schemes: a fixed-frequency (FFM) mode and a spreadspectrum (SSM) mode that reduces EMI-radiated emissions. The MAX9702 speaker amplifier features a fully
differential architecture, full-bridged (BTL) output, and
comprehensive click-and-pop suppression. The
MAX9702 speaker amplifier features high 75dB PSRR,
low 0.07% THD+N, and SNR in excess of 97dB. Shortcircuit and thermal-overload protection prevent the
device from being damaged during a fault condition.
The headphone amplifier uses Maxim’s patented
DirectDriveTM architecture that produces a ground-referenced output from a single supply, eliminating the
need for large DC-blocking capacitors, saving cost,
board space, and component height. A high 80dB
PSRR and low 0.02% THD+N ensures clean, low-distortion amplification of the audio signal.
An I2C interface sets the speaker and headphone gain,
mono, stereo, and mute functions.
The MAX9702 is available in 28-pin thin QFN-EP (5mm
x 5mm x 0.8mm) and 28-pin TSSOP packages. The
MAX9702 is specified over the extended -40°C to
+85°C temperature range.

Note 1: All devices are 100% production tested at +25°C. All temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
Note 2: Speaker mode testing performed with a resistive load in series with an inductor to simulate an actual speaker load. For RL =
4Ω, L = 34µH, RL = 8Ω, L = 68µH.
Note 3: Amplifier inputs (STEREO/MONO) connected to GND through CIN.
Note 4: Speaker mode testing performed with an 8Ω resistive load in series with a 68µH inductive load connected across BTL output. Headphone mode testing performed with 32Ω resistive load connected to GND. Mode transitions are controlled by
SHDN. KCP level is calculated as: 20 x log[(peak voltage under normal operation at rated power level)/(peak voltage during
mode transition, no input signal)]. Units are expressed in dB.
Note 5: Cb = total capacitance of one bus line in pF.

Pin Description
MAX9702
1.8W, Filterless, Stereo, Class D Audio Power
Amplifier and DirectDrive Stereo Headphone Amplifier
Detailed Description
The MAX9702 is a 1.8W, filterless, stereo Class D audio
power amplifier and DirectDrive stereo headphone
amplifier. The MAX9702 SSM amplifier features significant improvements to switch-mode amplifier technology. The MAX9702 offers Class AB performance with
Class D efficiency and minimal board space. The
device offers mix, mute, mono and stereo input modes,
eight selectable gains, and a low-power shutdown
mode—all programmable through an I2C interface.
The MAX9702 stereo headphone amplifier features
Maxim’s patented DirectDrive architecture, which eliminates the large output-coupling capacitors required by
conventional single-supply headphone amplifiers. A
negative supply (VSS) is created internally by inverting
the positive supply (CPVDD). Powering the amplifiers
from CPVDD and CPVSS increases the dynamic range of
the amplifiers to almost twice that of other single-supply
amplifiers, increasing the total available output power.
The DirectDrive outputs of the MAX9702 are biased at
GND (see Figure 7). The benefit of this 0V bias is that
the amplifier outputs do not have a DC component,
eliminating the need for large DC-blocking capacitors.
Eliminating the DC-blocking capacitors on the output
saves board space, system cost, and improves frequency response.
The MAX9702 features extensive click-and-pop suppression circuitry on both speaker and headphone
amplifiers to eliminate audible clicks-and-pops on startup and shutdown.
The MAX9702 features an input multiplexer/mixer that
allows three different audio sources to be selected or
mixed. An I2C-compatible interface allows serial communication between the MAX9702 and a microcontroller. The MAX9702 is available with two different I2C
addresses allowing two MAX9702s to share the same
bus (see Table 2). The internal command register controls the shutdown status of the MAX9702, sets the
maximum gain of the amplifier, and controls the
mono/stereo/mixed/mute MUX inputs (see Table 3).
Class D Speaker Amplifier
Spread-spectrum modulation and synchronizable
switching frequency significantly reduce EMI emissions. Comparators monitor the audio inputs and compare the complementary input voltages to a sawtooth
waveform. The comparators trip when the input magnitude of the sawtooth exceeds their corresponding input
voltage. Both comparators reset at a fixed time after the
14
rising edge of the second comparator trip point, generating a minimum-width pulse (tON(MIN),100ns typ) at
the output of the second comparator (Figure 1). As the
input voltage increases or decreases, the duration of
the pulse at one output increases while the other output
pulse duration remains the same. This causes the net
voltage across the speaker (VOUT+ - VOUT-) to change.
The minimum-width pulse helps the device to achieve
high levels of linearity.
Operating Modes
Fixed-Frequency (FFM) Mode
The MAX9702 features two fixed-frequency modes.
Connect SYNC to GND to select a 1.1MHz switching frequency. Float SYNC to select a 1.34MHz switching frequency. The frequency spectrum of the MAX9702
consists of the fundamental switching frequency and its
associated harmonics (see the Wideband FFT graph in
Typical Operating Characteristics). Program the switching frequency such that the harmonics do not fall within
a sensitive frequency band (Table 1). Audio reproduction is not affected by changing the switching frequency.
Spread-Spectrum (SSM) Mode
The MAX9702 features a unique, patented spreadspectrum mode that flattens the wideband spectral
components, improving EMI emissions that may be
radiated by the speaker and cables. This mode is
enabled by setting SYNC = VDD to enable SSM (Table
1). In SSM mode, the switching frequency varies randomly by ±50kHz around the center frequency
(1.15MHz). The modulation scheme remains the same,
but the period of the sawtooth waveform changes from
cycle to cycle (Figure 2). Instead of a large amount of
spectral energy present at multiples of the switching
frequency, the energy is now spread over a bandwidth
that increases with frequency. Above a few megahertz,
the wideband spectrum looks like white noise for EMI
purposes (Figure 3). A proprietary amplifier topology
ensures this does not corrupt the noise floor in the
audio bandwidth.

External Clock Mode
The SYNC input allows the MAX9702 to be synchronized to an external clock, or another Maxim Class D
amplifier, creating a fully synchronous system, minimizing clock intermodulation, and allocating spectral components of the switching harmonics to insensitive
frequency bands. Applying a TTL clock signal between
1MHz and 2MHz to SYNC synchronizes the MAX9702.
The period of the SYNC clock can be randomized,
allowing the MAX9702 to be synchronized to another
Maxim Class D amplifier operating in SSM mode.
SYNC_OUT allows several Maxim Class D amplifiers to
be cascaded. The synchronized output minimizes interference due to clock intermodulation caused by the
switching spread between single devices using
SYNC_OUT. The modulation scheme remains the same
when using SYNC_OUT, and audio reproduction is not
affected (see Figure 4).

Filterless Modulation/Common-Mode Idle
Efficiency
The MAX9702 uses Maxim’s unique, patented modulation scheme that eliminates the LC filter required by traditional Class D amplifiers, improving efficiency, reducing
component count, conserving board space and system
cost. Conventional Class D amplifiers output a 50% dutycycle square wave when no signal is present. With no filter, the square wave appears across the load as a DC
voltage, resulting in finite load current, increasing power
consumption, especially when idling. When no signal is
present at the input of the MAX9702, the outputs switch
as shown in Figure 5. Because the MAX9702 drives the
speaker differentially, the two outputs cancel each other,
resulting in no net idle mode voltage across the speaker,
minimizing power consumption.
Efficiency of a Class D amplifier is due to the switching
operation of the output stage transistors. In a Class D
amplifier, the output transistors act as current-steering
switches and consume negligible additional power.
Any power loss associated with the Class D output
stage is mostly due to the I2R loss of the MOSFET onresistance, and quiescent current overhead.
The theoretical best efficiency of a linear amplifier is
78%; however, that efficiency is only exhibited at peak
output powers. Under normal operating levels (typical
music reproduction levels), efficiency falls below 30%,
whereas the MAX9702 still exhibits >80% efficiencies
under the same conditions (Figure 6).

Resistance graph in the Typical Operating
Characteristics for details of the possible capacitor
sizes. There is a low DC voltage on the driver outputs
due to amplifier offset. However, the offset of the
MAX9702 is typically 1.1mV, which, when combined
with a 32Ω load, results in less than 56µA of DC current
flow to the headphones.
In addition to the cost and size disadvantages of the
DC-blocking capacitors required by conventional headphone amplifiers, these capacitors limit the amplifier’s
low-frequency response and can distort the audio signal. Previous attempts at eliminating the output-coupling capacitors involved biasing the headphone return
(sleeve) to the DC bias voltage of the headphone
amplifiers. This method raises some issues:
1) The sleeve is typically grounded to the chassis.
Using the midrail biasing approach, the sleeve must
be isolated from system ground, complicating product design.
2) During an ESD strike, the driver’s ESD structures
are the only path to system ground. Thus, the driver
must be able to withstand the full ESD strike.
3) When using the headphone jack as a line out to
other equipment, the bias voltage on the sleeve may
conflict with the ground potential from other equipment, resulting in possible damage to the drivers.
DirectDrive
Traditional single-supply headphone amplifiers have
outputs biased at a nominal DC voltage (typically half
the supply) for maximum dynamic range. Large-coupling capacitors are needed to block this DC bias from
the headphone. Without these capacitors, a significant
amount of DC current flows to the headphone, resulting
in unnecessary power dissipation and possible damage to both headphone and headphone amplifier.
Maxim’s patented DirectDrive architecture uses a
charge pump to create an internal negative supply voltage. This allows the headphone outputs of the
MAX9702 to be biased at GND, almost doubling
dynamic range while operating from a single supply.
With no DC component, there is no need for the large
DC-blocking capacitors. Instead of two large (220µF,
typ) tantalum capacitors, the MAX9702 charge pump
requires two small ceramic capacitors, conserving
board space, reducing cost, and improving the frequency response of the headphone amplifier. See the

MAX9702
Headphone Amplifier
In conventional single-supply headphone amplifiers,
the output-coupling capacitor is a major contributor of
audible clicks and pops. Upon startup, the amplifier
charges the coupling capacitor to its bias voltage, typically half the supply. Likewise, during shutdown the
capacitor is discharged to GND. This results in DC shift
across the capacitor, which in turn, appears as an
audible transient at the speaker. Since the MAX9702
headphone amplifier does not require output-coupling
capacitors, this does not arise.
The MAX9702 offers four headphone amplifier gain settings controlled through the I2C interface. Headphone
amplifier gains of -2dB, +1dB, +4dB, and +7dB are set
by command register bits 3 and 4 (Table 5).
Additionally, the MAX9702 features extensive click-andpop suppression that eliminates any audible transient
sources internal to the device.
In most applications, the output of the preamplifier driving the MAX9702 has a DC bias of typically half the
supply. During startup, the input-coupling capacitor is
charged to the preamplifier’s DC bias voltage through
the RF of the MAX9702, resulting in a DC shift across
the capacitor and an audible click-and-pop. An internal
delay of 40ms eliminates the clicks-and-pops caused
by the input filter.
Charge Pump
The MAX9702 features a low-noise charge pump. The
switching frequency of the charge pump is 1/2 the
switching frequency of the Class D amplifier. When
SYNC is driven externally, the charge pump switches at
1/2 fSYNC. When SYNC = VDD, the charge pump switches with a spread-spectrum pattern. The nominal switching frequency is well beyond the audio range, and thus
does not interfere with the audio signals, resulting in an
SNR of 97dB. The switch drivers feature a controlled
switching speed that minimizes noise generated by
turn-on and turn-off transients. By limiting the switching
speed of the charge pump, the di/dt noise caused by
the parasitic bond wire and trace inductance is minimized. Although not typically required, additional highfrequency noise attenuation can be achieved by
increasing the size of C2 (see Typical Application
Circuit). The charge pump is active in both speaker and
headphone modes.
Input Multiplexer/Mixer
The MAX9702 features an input multiplexer/mixer that
allows three different audio sources to be selected and
mixed. Command register bits 5 and 6 select the input
channel (see Table 6), and the audio signal is output to
the active amplifier. When the mono path is selected
(bit 6 = 0, bit 5 = 1), the mono input is present on both
the outputs (with a gain according to Tables 4 and 5).
When the stereo path is selected, the left and right
inputs are present on the outputs (with a gain according to Tables 4 and 5). When in mixer mode, the mono
input is added to each of the stereo inputs and present
at the output (with a gain according to Tables 4 and 5).
The mono and stereo signals are attenuated by 6dB
prior to mixing to maintain dynamic range. In mute,
none of input signals is present at output.
Headphone Sense Input (HPS)
The headphone sense input (HPS) monitors the headphone jack, and automatically configures the MAX9702
based on the voltage applied at HPS. A voltage of less
than 0.8V sets the MAX9702 to speaker mode. A voltage of greater than 2V disables the bridge amplifiers
and enables the headphone amplifiers.
For automatic headphone detection, connect HPS to
the control pin of a 3-wire headphone jack as shown in
Figure 8. With no headphone present, the output
impedance of the headphone amplifier pulls HPS to
less than 0.8V. When a headphone plug is inserted into
the jack, the control pin is disconnected from the tip
20
contact and HPS is pulled to VDD through the internal
600kΩ pullup resistor. When driving HPS from an external logic source, drive HPS low when the MAX9702 is
shut down. Place a 10kΩ resistor in series with HPS and
the headphone jack to ensure ±8kV ESD protection.
Click-and-Pop Suppression
The MAX9702 features comprehensive click-and-pop
suppression that eliminates audible transients on startup and shutdown. While in shutdown, the H-bridge is
in a high-impedance state. During startup or power-up,
the input amplifiers are muted and an internal loop sets
the modulator bias voltages to the correct levels, preventing clicks and pops when the H-bridge is subsequently enabled.
Current-Limit and Thermal Protection
The MAX9702 features current limiting and thermal protection to protect the device from short circuits and
overcurrent conditions. The headphone amplifier pulses in the event of an overcurrent condition. The speaker
amplifiers’ current-limiting protection clamps the output
current without shutting down the outputs. This can
result in a distorted output.
The MAX9702 has thermal protection that disables the
device into shutdown at +120°C until the temperature
decreases to +110°C.

I2C Interface
The MAX9702 features an I 2C 2-wire serial interface
consisting of a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock
line (SCL). SDA and SCL facilitate communication
between the MAX9702 and the master at clock rates up
to 400kHz. Figure 9 shows the 2-wire interface timing
diagram. The MAX9702 is a receive-only slave device
relying on the master to generate the SCL signal. The
MAX9702 cannot write to the SDA bus except to
acknowledge the receipt of data from the master. The
MAX9702 does not acknowledge a read command
from the master. The master, typically a microcontroller,
generates SCL and initiates data transfer on the bus.
A master device communicates to the MAX9702 by
transmitting the proper address followed by the data
word. Each transmit sequence is framed by a START (S)
or REPEATED START (Sr) condition and a STOP (P) con-
dition. Each word transmitted over the bus is 8 bits long
and is always followed by an acknowledge clock pulse.
The MAX9702 SDA line operates as both an input and
an open-drain output. A pullup resistor, greater than
500Ω, is required on the SDA bus. The MAX9702 SCL
line operates as an input only. A pullup resistor, greater
than 500Ω, is required on SCL if there are multiple masters on the bus, or if the master in a single-master system has an open-drain SCL output. Series resistors in
line with SDA and SCL are optional. Series resistors
protect the digital inputs of the MAX9702 from highvoltage spikes on the bus lines, and minimize crosstalk
and undershoot of the bus signals.
Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each SCL cycle. The
data on SDA must remain stable during the high period
of the SCL pulse. Changes in SDA while SCL is high
are control signals (see the START and STOP Conditions
section). SDA and SCL idle high when the I2C bus is
not busy.
START and STOP Conditions
A master device initiates communication by issuing a
START condition. A START condition is a high-to-low
transition on SDA with SCL high. A STOP condition is a
low-to-high transition on SDA while SCL is high (Figure
10). A START (S) condition from the master signals the
beginning of a transmission to the MAX9702. The master terminates transmission and frees the bus by issuing a STOP (P) condition. The bus remains active if a
REPEATED START (Sr) condition is generated instead
of a STOP condition.

Early STOP Conditions
The MAX9702 recognizes a STOP condition at any point
during data transmission except if the STOP condition
occurs in the same high pulse as a START condition.
Slave Address
The MAX9702 is available with one of two preset slave
addresses (see Table 2). The address is defined as the
7 most significant bits (MSBs) followed by the
Read/Write bit. The address is the first byte of information sent to the MAX9702 after the START condition.
The MAX9702 is a slave device only capable of being
written to. The Read/Write bit must always be a zero
when configuring the MAX9702. The MAX9702 does
not acknowledge the receipt of its address even if R/W
is set to 1.
Acknowledge
The acknowledge bit (ACK) is a clocked 9th bit that the
MAX9702 uses to handshake receipt each byte of data
(see Figure 11). The MAX9702 pulls down SDA during
the master-generated 9th clock pulse. The SDA line
must remain stable and low during the high period of
the acknowledge clock pulse. Monitoring ACK allows
for detection of unsuccessful data transfers. An unsuccessful data transfer occurs if a receiving device is
busy or if a system fault has occurred. In the event of
an unsuccessful data transfer, the bus master may
reattempt communication.
Write Data Format
A write to the MAX9702 includes transmission of a
START condition, the slave address with the R/W bit set
to zero (see Table 2), 1 byte of data to configure the
command register, and a STOP condition. Figure 12
illustrates the proper format for one frame.

The MAX9702 only accepts write data, but it acknowledges the receipt of its address byte with the R/W bit

in the event that the R/W bit is set high. Subsequently,
the master reads all 1s from the MAX9702. Always set
the R/W bit to zero to avoid this situation.

acts as a mixer when the mono and stereo inputs are
enabled at the same time. The MUTE function disables
the input signal to the output. All modes are selected
through B5 and B6 (see Table 6).
The MIX function attenuates and mixes the MONO and
STEREO signals. Each input signal is attenuated by
6dB prior to being mixed. This attenuation preserves
headroom at the output. The output signal is represented by the following equation when in MIX mode:

set speaker and headphone gain, select an input mode,
and enable/disable shutdown. Table 3 describes the
function of the bits contained in the command register.

Shutdown
The MAX9702 features a 0.1µA shutdown mode that
reduces power consumption to extend battery life.
Shutdown is controlled by the hardware or software
interface. Drive SHDN low to disable the drive amplifiers, bias circuitry, charge pump, and set the headphone amplifier output impedance to 1kΩ. Similarly, the
MAX9702 enters shutdown when bit 7 (B7) in the control register is set to zero. Connect SHDN to VDD and
set bit 7 = 1 for normal operation (see Table 7). The I2C
interface is active and the contents of the command
register are not affected when in shutdown. This allows
the master to write to the MAX9702 while in shutdown.

Normal operation
DC-Coupled Input
The input amplifier can accept DC-coupled inputs that
are biased to the amplifier’s bias voltage. DC-coupling
eliminates the input-coupling capacitors, reducing
component count to potentially one external component
(see the System Diagram). However, the highpass filtering effect of the capacitors is lost, allowing low-frequency signals to feed through to the load.
Power Supplies
Applications Information
Filterless Class D Operation
Traditional Class D amplifiers require an output filter to
recover the audio signal from the amplifier’s PWM output. The filters add cost, increase the solution size of
the amplifier, and can decrease efficiency. The traditional PWM scheme uses large differential output
swings 2 x VDD(P-P) and causes large ripple currents.
Any parasitic resistance in the filter components results
in a loss of power, lowering the efficiency.
The MAX9702 does not require an output filter. The
device relies on the inherent inductance of the speaker
coil and the natural filtering of both the speaker and the
human ear to recover the audio component of the
square wave output. By eliminating the output filter, this
results in a smaller, less costly, more efficient solution.
Because the frequency of the MAX9702 output is well
beyond the bandwidth of most speakers, voice coil
movement due to the square wave frequency is very
small. Although this movement is small, a speaker not
designed to handle the additional power may be damaged. For optimum results, use a speaker with a series
inductance >10µH. Typical 8Ω speakers, for portable
audio applications, exhibit series inductances in the
range of 20µH to 100µH.
Class D Output Offset
Unlike a Class AB amplifier, the output offset voltage of
Class D amplifiers does not noticeably increase quiescent current draw when a load is applied. This is due to
the power conversion of the Class D amplifier. For
24
example, an 8mV DC offset across an 8Ω load results
in 1mA extra current consumption in a Class AB
device. In the Class D case, an 8mV offset into 8Ω
equates to an additional power drain of 8µW. Due to
the high efficiency of the Class D amplifier, this represents an additional quiescent current draw of
8µW/(V DD /100 x η), which is on the order of a few
microamps.
The MAX9702 has different supplies for each portion of
the device, allowing for the optimum combination of
headroom power dissipation and noise immunity. The
speaker amplifiers are powered from PVDD. PVDD can
range from 2.5V to 5.5V and must be connected to the
same potential as VDD. The headphone amplifiers are
powered from VDD and VSS. VDD is the positive supply
of the headphone amplifiers and can range from 2.5V
to 5.5V. VSS is the negative supply of the headphone
amplifiers. Connect VSS to CPVSS. The charge pump is
powered by CPVDD. Connect CPVDD to VDD for normal
operation. The charge pump inverts the voltage at
CPVDD, and the resulting voltage appears at CPVSS.
The remainder of the device is powered by VDD.
Component Selection
Input Filter
An input capacitor, CIN, in conjunction with the input
impedance of the MAX9702 forms a highpass filter that
removes the DC bias from an incoming signal. The ACcoupling capacitor allows the amplifier to automatically
bias the signal to an optimum DC level. Assuming zerosource impedance, the -3dB point of the highpass filter
is given by:
f−3dB =
1
2πRINCIN
Choose CIN such that f-3dB is well below the lowest frequency of interest. Use capacitors whose dielectrics
have low-voltage coefficients, such as tantalum or aluminum electrolytic. Capacitors with high-voltage coefficients, such as ceramics, may result in increased
distortion at low frequencies.

MAX9702
Output Filter
The MAX9702 does not require an output filter. The
device passes FCC emissions standards with 75mm of
unshielded speaker cables. However, output filtering
can be used if a design is failing radiated emissions
due to board layout or cable length, or the circuit is
near EMI-sensitive devices. Use a ferrite bead filter
when radiated frequencies above 10MHz are of concern. Use an LC filter when radiated frequencies below
10MHz are of concern, or when long leads (>200mm)
connect the amplifier to the speaker. Figure 13 shows
optional speaker amplifier output filters.
Other considerations when designing the input filter
include the constraints of the overall system and the
actual frequency band of interest. Although high-fidelity
audio calls for a flat-gain response between 20Hz and
20kHz, portable voice-reproduction devices such as
cellular phones and two-way radios need only concentrate on the frequency range of the spoken human voice
(typically 300Hz to 3.5kHz). In addition, speakers used
in portable devices typically have a poor response
below 300Hz. Taking these two factors into consideration, the input filter may not need to be designed for a
20Hz to 20kHz response, saving both board space and
cost due to the use of smaller capacitors.

BIAS Capacitor
BIAS is the output of the internally generated DC bias
voltage. The BIAS bypass capacitor, CBIAS, improves
PSRR and THD+N by reducing power supply and other
noise sources at the common-mode bias node, and
also generates the clickless/popless, startup/shutdown
DC bias waveforms for the speaker amplifiers. Bypass
BIAS with a 1µF capacitor to GND.
Charge-Pump Capacitor Selection
Use capacitors with an ESR less than 100mΩ for optimum performance. Low-ESR ceramic capacitors minimize the output resistance of the charge pump. Most
surface-mount ceramic capacitors satisfy the ESR
requirement. For best performance over the extended
temperature range, select capacitors with an X7R
dielectric. Table 8 lists suggested manufacturers.
Flying Capacitor (C1)
The value of the flying capacitor (C1) affects the output
resistance of the charge pump. A C1 value that is too
small degrades the device’s ability to provide sufficient
current drive, which leads to a loss of output voltage.
Increasing the value of C1 reduces the charge-pump output resistance to an extent. Above 1µF, the on-resistance
of the switches and the ESR of C1 and C2 dominate.
Output Capacitor (C2)
The output capacitor value and ESR directly affect the
ripple at CPVSS. Increasing the value of C2 reduces
output ripple. Likewise, decreasing the ESR of C2
reduces both ripple and output resistance. Lower
capacitance values can be used in systems with low
maximum output power levels. See the Output Power
vs. Charge-Pump Capacitance and Load Resistance
graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics.
CPVDD Bypass Capacitor
The CPVDD bypass capacitor (C3) lowers the output
impedance of the power supply and reduces the
impact of the MAX9702’s charge-pump switching transients. Bypass CPVDD with C3 to PGND and place it
physically close to the CPVDD and PGND. Use a value
for C3 that is equal to C1.
Supply Bypassing, Layout,
and Grounding
Proper layout and grounding are essential for optimum
performance. Use large traces for the power-supply
inputs and amplifier outputs to minimize losses due to
parasitic trace resistance. Large traces also aid in moving heat away from the package. Proper grounding
improves audio performance, minimizes crosstalk
between channels, and prevents any switching noise
from coupling into the audio signal. Connect PGND and
GND together at a single point on the PC board. Route
all traces that carry switching transients away from GND
and the traces/components in the audio signal path.
Connect all of the power-supply inputs (CPVDD, VDD,
and PVDD) together. Bypass PVDD with a 0.1µF capacitor to PGND and CPVDD with a 1µF capacitor to PGND.
Bypass V DD with 1µF capacitor to GND. Place the
bypass capacitors as close to the MAX9702 as possible. Place a bulk capacitor between PVDD and PGND,
if needed.
Use large, 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. Large output, supply, and
GND traces allow more heat to move from the
MAX9702 to the air, decreasing the thermal impedance
of the circuit if possible or connect to VSS.
The MAX9702 thin QFN-EP package features an
exposed thermal pad on its underside. This pad lowers
the package’s thermal impedance by providing a directheat conduction path from the die to the printed circuit
board. The exposed pad is internally connected to VSS.
Connect the exposed thermal pad to an isolated plane.
