Ordering number : EN5715A Monolithic Linear IC LA4725 2-channel 30W BTL Audio Power Amplifier Overview The LA4725 is a 2-channel BTL audio power amplifier IC for Car audio. It was designed for the best possible audio quality and features an extended low band roll-off frequency provided by a newly-developed NF circuit that does not require an external capacitor. Furthermore, crosstalk, which can cause muddiness in the audio output, has been significantly reduced by both circuit and wiring pattern improvements. Thus this amplifier can provide powerful lows and clear highs.

A value of 2.2µF is recommended. Determine the polarity based on the DC potential of the circuit connected directly to the LA4725 front end. Note that the low band response can be adjusted by varying fL with the capacitors C1 and C4. C2 : Decoupling capacitor (ripple filter) C3 : Sets the amplifier starting time, which will be approximately 0.6 seconds for a value of 33µF. The starting time is proportional to the value of this capacitor, and can be set to any desired value. C5 : Power-supply capacitor C6, C7, C8, and C9 : Oscillation prevention capacitors. Use polyester film capacitors (Mylar capacitors) with excellent characteristics. (Note that the series resistors R2, R3, R4, and R5 are used in conjunction with these capacitors to achieve stable amplifier operation.) A value of 0.1µF is recommended. C10 : Impulse noise reduction capacitor. A value of 0.47µF is recommended. Caution is required when selecting the value for this capacitor, since increasing its value influences the operation of the circuits that protect against shorting the amplifier output pins to VCC or to ground when higher VCC voltages (approximately 16V or higher) are used. R1 : Standby switch current limiting resistor. A value of 10kΩ is recommended when a voltage in the range 2.5 to 12V will be applied as the standby switching voltage. Note that this resistor is not optional: it must be included. IC Internal Characteristics and Notes 1. Standby function • Pin 4 is the standby switch. A voltage of 2.5V or higher must be applied through an external resistor to turn the amplifier on. • If a voltage of over 12V will be applied as the standby mode switching voltage, use the following formula to determine the value of R1 so that the current entering at pin 4 remains under 500µA. R1 = Pin 4 Internal Equivalent Circuit 500µA or lower 10kΩ 4 R1 Applied standby voltage About 1.4V (2VBE) <applied voltage> − 1.4 − 10kΩ 500µA 2. Muting function • Pin 5 connects the capacitor that determines the starting time to prevent impulse noise. It can also be used to mute the amplifier output by shorting pin 5 to ground. When this function is used, the recovery time depends on C3. 3. Impulse noise improvements • While the LA4725 achieves a low level of impulse noise, if even further reductions in impulse noise at power on/off (and when switching into or out of standby mode) a 0.47µF capacitor may be inserted between pin 7 and the PRE GND pin (pin 3). (Pin 7 is the output amplifier bias pin. Since the ability to withstand shorting the output pins to VCC or ground is reduced for supply voltages over 16V if the pin 7 capacitance is large, we recommend a value of 0.47µF or lower for this capacitor.) No.6631-4/8 LA4725 4. Protection circuits • Due to the system structure of the protection circuit for shorts to VCC or ground, if there is a DC resistance between the amplifier output pins and ground, the protection circuit may operate when power is first applied and the amplifier may fail to turn on. The basic design approach we recommend is not to adopt any designs in which there is a DC resistance between the amplifier outputs and ground. • The LA4725 includes a built-in thermal protection circuit to prevent the IC from being damaged or destroyed if abnormally high temperatures occur. This thermal protection circuit gradually reduces the output if the IC junction temperature (Tj) reaches the range 170 to 180°C due to inadequate heat sinking or other problem. If the temperature falls, the amplifier will restart automatically. • The LA4725 also includes other protection circuits. Use of these circuits also requires care during end product design and testing. 5. Other notes • The LA4725 is a BTL power amplifier. When testing this device, the ground systems for the test equipment connected to IC inputs, and that for the test equipment connected to IC outputs, must be isolated. Do not use a common ground.
