The STA515W converts both DDX and binary-logic-controlled PWM signals into audio power at the load. It includes a logic interface, integrated bridge drivers, high efficiency MOSFET outputs and thermal and short-circuit protection circuitry. In DDX mode, two logic-level signals per channel are used to control the high-speed MOSFET switches which drive the speaker load in a bridge configuration, according to the damped ternary modulation operation. In binary mode, both full-bridge and half-bridge modes are supported. The STA515W includes overcurrent and thermal protection as well as an undervoltage lockout with automatic recovery. A thermal warning status is also provided. Figure 5.

In order to provide a proper logic interface, pin VL must operate at the same voltage as the DDX control logic supply. 8/14 Doc ID 11079 Rev 2 STA515W Applications information Protection circuits The STA515W includes protection circuitry for overcurrent and thermal overload conditions. A thermal warning pin (THWARN) is activated low (open-drain MOSFET) when the IC temperature exceeds 130 °C, which is in advance of the thermal shutdown protection. When a fault condition is detected an internal fault signal acts to immediately disable the output power MOSFETs, placing both H-bridges in the high-impedance state. At the same time an open-drain MOSFET connected to pin FAULT is switched on. There are two possible modes subsequent to activating a fault: z Shutdown mode: with pins FAULT (with pull-up resistor) and TRISTATE independent, an activated fault disables the device, signalling low at pin FAULT. The device may subsequently be reset to normal operation by toggling pin TRISTATE from high to low and back to high using an external logic signal. z Automatic recovery mode: This is shown in the applications circuit in Figure 7 and Figure 7 on page 10. Pins FAULT and TRISTATE are shorted together and connected to a time constant circuit comprising R59 and C58. An activated fault forces a reset on pin TRISTATE causing normal operation to resume following a delay determined by the time constant of the circuit. If the fault condition is still present, the circuit operation continues, repeating until the fault condition is removed. An increase in the time constant of the circuit produces a longer recovery interval. Care must be taken in the overall system design so as not to exceed the protection thresholds under normal operation. Power outputs The STA515W power and output pins are duplicated to provide a low-impedance path for the device bridged outputs. All duplicated power, ground and output pins must be connected for proper operation. Pins PWRDN or TRISTATE should be used to set all MOSFETS to the high-impedance state during power-up and until the logic power supply, VL, has settled. Parallel-output and high-current operation When using DDX mode, the STA515W outputs can be connected in parallel to increase the output current capability. In this configuration the device can provide 40 W into 8 Ω. This mode of operation is enabled with pin CONFIG connected to VDD. The inputs must be combined to give INLA = INLB and INRA = INRB, then the corresponding outputs can be shorted together to give OUTLA = OUTLB and OUTRA = OUTRB. Output filter A passive 2nd-order filter is used on the STA515W power outputs to reconstruct an analog audio signal. The system performance can be significantly affected by the output filter design and choice of passive components. Filter designs for 4-Ω and 8-Ω loads are shown in the applications circuits of Figure 1 on page 2 for the half-bridge mode, and Figure 7 and Figure 8 on page 10 for the full bridge.
