LM4820-6
Fixed Gain 1 Watt Audio Power Amplifier
General Description
Key Specifications
The LM4820-6 is an audio power amplifier primarily designed for demanding applications in mobile phones and
other portable communication device applications. It is capable of delivering 1 watt of continuous average power to an
8Ω BTL load with less than 1% distortion (THD+N) at 6dB of
BTL gain from a 5VDC power supply.
Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to
provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of
external components. The LM4820-6 does not require input
and gain resistors, output coupling capacitors or bootstrap
capacitors, and therefore is ideally suited for mobile phone
and other low voltage applications where minimal parts
count and low power consumption is a primary requirement.
The LM4820-6 features a low-power consumption shutdown
mode, which is achieved by driving the shutdown pin with
logic low. Additionally, the LM4820-6 features an internal
thermal shutdown protection mechanism.
The LM4820-6 contains advanced pop & click circuitry which
eliminates noises which would otherwise occur during
turn-on and turn-off transitions.

Note 1: All voltages are measured with respect to the ground pin, unless otherwise 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 LM4820-6, see power
derating curves for additional information.

As with any amplifier, proper supply bypassing is critical for
low noise performance and high power supply rejection. The
capacitor location on both the bypass and power supply pins
should be as close to the device as possible. Typical applications employ a 5V regulator with 10 µF tantalum or electrolytic capacitor and a ceramic bypass capacitor which aid
in supply stability. This does not eliminate the need for
bypassing the supply nodes of the LM4820-6. The selection
of a bypass capacitor, especially CB, is dependent upon
PSRR requirements, click and pop performance (as explained in the section, Proper Selection of External Components), system cost, and size constraints.
BRIDGE CONFIGURATION EXPLANATION
As shown in Figure 1, the LM4820-6 has two operational
amplifiers internally. Figure 1 shows that the output of amplifier one serves as the input to amplifier two which results
in both amplifiers producing signals identical in magnitude,
but out of phase by 180˚. Consequently, the differential gain
for the IC is
AVD= 2 *(Rf/Ri)
(1)
By driving the load differentially through outputs Vo1 and
Vo2, an amplifier configuration commonly referred to as
“bridged mode” is established. Bridged mode operation is
different from the classical single-ended amplifier configuration where one side of the load is connected to ground.
A bridge amplifier design has a few distinct advantages over
the single-ended configuration, as it provides differential
drive to the load, thus doubling output swing for a specified
supply voltage. 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. In order to
choose an amplifier’s closed-loop gain without causing excessive clipping, please refer to the Audio Power Amplifier
Design section.
A bridge configuration, such as the one used in LM4820-6,
also creates a second advantage over single-ended amplifiers. Since the differential outputs, Vo1 and Vo2, are biased
at half-supply, no net DC voltage exists across the load. This
eliminates the need for an output coupling capacitor which is
required in a single supply, single-ended amplifier configuration. Without an output coupling capacitor, the half-supply
bias across the load would result in both increased internal
IC power dissipation and also possible loudspeaker damage.
SHUTDOWN FUNCTION
In order to reduce power consumption while not in use, the
LM4820-6 contains a shutdown pin to externally turn off the
amplifier’s bias circuitry. This shutdown feature turns the
amplifier off when a logic low is placed on the shutdown pin.
By switching the shutdown pin to ground, the LM4820-6
supply current draw will be minimized in idle mode. While the
device will be disabled with shutdown pin voltages less than
0.5VDC, the idle current may be greater than the typical
value of 0.1µA. (Idle current is measured with the shutdown
pin grounded).
In many applications, a microcontroller or microprocessor
output is used to control the shutdown circuitry to provide a
quick, smooth transition into shutdown. Another solution is to
use a single-pole, single-throw switch in conjunction with an
external pull-up resistor. When the switch is closed, the
shutdown pin is connected to ground and disables the amplifier. If the switch is open, then the external pull-up resistor
will enable the LM4820-6. This scheme guarantees that the
shutdown pin will not float thus preventing unwanted state
changes.
POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a
successful amplifier, whether the amplifier is bridged or
single-ended. A direct consequence of the increased power
delivered to the load by a bridge amplifier is an increase in
internal power dissipation. Since the LM4820-6 has two
operational amplifiers in one package, the maximum internal
power dissipation is 4 times that of a single-ended amplifier.
The maximum power dissipation for a given application can
be derived from the power dissipation graphs or from Equation 2.
PDMAX = 4*(VDD)2/(2π2RL)
(2)
PROPER SELECTION OF EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Proper selection of external components in applications using integrated power amplifiers is critical to optimize device
and system performance. While the LM4820-6 is tolerant of
external component combinations, consideration to component values must be used to maximize overall system quality.
The LM4820-6 is unity-gain stable which gives the designer
maximum system flexibility. The LM4820-6 at 6dB of fixed
gain is a low gain configuration which minimizes THD+N
values, and maximizes the signal to noise ratio. Low gain
configurations require large input signals to obtain a given
output power. Input signals equal to or greater than 1 Vrms
are available from sources such as audio codecs. Please
refer to the section, Audio Power Amplifier Design, for a
more complete explanation of proper gain selection.
Besides gain, one of the major considerations is the closedloop bandwidth of the amplifier. To a large extent, the bandwidth is dictated by the choice of external components
shown in Figure 1. The input coupling capacitor, Ci, forms a
first order high pass filter which limits low frequency response. This value should be chosen based on needed
frequency response for a few distinct reasons.
It is critical that the maximum junction temperature TJMAX of
150˚C is not exceeded. TJMAX can be determined from the
power derating curves by using PDMAX and the PC board foil
area. By adding additional copper foil, the thermal resistance
of the application can be reduced from a free air value of
150˚C/W, resulting in higher PDMAX. Additional copper foil
can be added to any of the leads, bumps or vias connected
to the LM4820-6. It is especially effective when connected to
VDD, GND, and the output pins. Refer to the application
information on the LM4820-6 reference design board for an
example of good heat sinking. If TJMAX still exceeds 150˚C,
then additional changes must be made. These changes can
include reduced supply voltage, higher load impedance, or
reduced ambient temperature. Internal power dissipation is a
function of output power. Refer to the Typical Performance
Characteristics curves for power dissipation information for
different output powers and output loading.
Selection Of Input Capacitor Size
Large input capacitors are both expensive and space hungry
for portable designs. Clearly, a certain sized capacitor is
needed to couple in low frequencies without severe attenuation. But in many cases the speakers used in portable
systems, whether internal or external, have little ability to

reproduce signals below 100 Hz to 150 Hz. Thus, using a
large input capacitor may not increase actual system performance.
(4)
or
In addition to system cost and size, click and pop performance is effected by the size of the input coupling capacitor,
Ci. A larger input coupling capacitor requires more charge to
reach its quiescent DC voltage (nominally 1/2 VDD). This
charge comes from the output via the feedback and is apt to
create pops upon device enable. Thus, by minimizing the
capacitor size based on necessary low frequency response,
turn-on pops can be minimized.
Besides minimizing the input capacitor size, careful consideration should be paid to the bypass capacitor value. Bypass
capacitor, CB, is the most critical component to minimize
turn-on pops since it determines how fast the LM4820-6
turns on. The slower the LM4820-6’s outputs ramp to their
quiescent DC voltage (nominally 1/2 VDD), the smaller the
turn-on pop. Choosing CB equal to 1.0 µF along with a small
value of Ci (in the range of 0.1 µF to 0.39 µF), should
produce a virtually clickless and popless shutdown function.
While the device will function properly, (no oscillations or
motorboating), with CB equal to 0.1 µF, the device will be
much more susceptible to turn-on clicks and pops. Thus, a
value of CB equal to 1.0 µF is recommended in all but the
most cost sensitive designs.
AVD = 2 ( Rf/Ri )
Rf = Ri = 25kΩ
AVD = 2 ( 25kΩ/25kΩ )
AVD = 2
The last step in this design example is setting the amplifier’s
-3dB frequency bandwidth. To achieve the desired ± 0.25dB
pass band magnitude variation limit, the low frequency response must extend to at least one-fifth the lower bandwidth
limit. The high frequency response must extend to at least
five times the upper bandwidth limit. The gain variation for
both response limits is 0.17dB, well within the ± 0.25dB
desired limit. The results are
fL = 100Hz/5 = 20Hz
and
fH = 20kHz x 5 = 100kHz
As mentioned in the Selecting Proper External Components section, Ri and Ci create a highpass filter that sets the
amplifier’s lower bandpass frequency limit. To find the coupling capacitor’s value, use Equation 6
Ci ≥ 1/(2πRifL)

The result is
1/(2π*25kΩ*20kHz) = .318µf
Use a 0.33µf capacitor, the closest standard value.
The product of the desired high frequency cutoff (100kHz in
this example ) and the differential gain AVD, determines the
upper passband response limit. With AVD = 2 and fH =
100kHz, the closed-loop gain bandwidth product (GBWP) is
200kHz. This is less than the LM4820-6’s 25MHz GBWP.
With this margin, the amplifier can be used in designs that
require more differential gain while avoiding performance,
restricting bandwidth limitations.

A designer must first determine the minimum supply rail to
obtain the specified output power. By extrapolating from the
Output Power vs Supply Voltage graphs in the Typical Performance Characteristics section, the supply rail can be
easily found. A second way to determine the minimum supply rail is to calculate the required Vopeak using Equation 3.
Using this method, the minimum supply voltage would be
(Vopeak + (VODTOP + VODBOT)), where VODBOT and VODTOP are
extrapolated from the Dropout Voltage vs Supply Voltage
curve in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
(3)
2.7VDD to 5VDD is a standard supply voltage range for most
applications. Extra supply voltage creates headroom that
allows the LM4820-6 to reproduce peaks in excess of 1W
without producing audible distortion. At this time, the designer must make sure that the power supply choice along
with the output impedance does not violate the conditions
explained in the Power Dissipation section.

Single-Point Power / Ground Connections
The analog power traces should be connected to the digital
traces through a single point (link). A ’Pi-filter’ can be helpful
in minimizing High Frequency noise coupling between the
analog and digital sections. It is further recommended to put
digital and analog power traces over the corresponding digital and analog ground traces to minimize noise coupling.
PCB LAYOUT GUIDELINES
This section provides practical guidelines for mixed signal
PCB layout that involves various digital/analog power and
ground traces. Designers should note that these are only
’rule-of-thumb’ recommendations and the actual results will
depend heavily on the final layout.
General Mixed Signal Layout Recommendation
Placement of Digital and Analog Components
All digital components and high-speed digital signals traces
should be located as far away as possible from analog
components and circuit traces.
Power and Ground Circuits
For 2 layer mixed signal design, it is important to isolate the
digital power and ground trace paths from the analog power
and ground trace paths. Star trace routing techniques (bringing individual traces back to a central point rather than daisy
chaining traces together in a serial manner) can have a
major impact on low level signal performance. Star trace
routing refers to using individual traces to feed power and
ground to each circuit or even device. This technique will
take require a greater amount of design time but will not
increase the final price of the board. The only extra parts
required will be some jumpers.
Avoiding Typical Design / Layout Problems
Avoid ground loops or running digital and analog traces
parallel to each other (side-by-side) on the same PCB layer.
When traces must cross over each other do it at 90 degrees.
Running digital and analog traces at 90 degrees to each
other from the top to the bottom side as much as possible will
minimize capacitive noise coupling and cross talk.
