Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed
specifically to provide high quality output power with a
minimal amount of external components. The
LM4951 does not require bootstrap capacitors, or
snubber circuits.
The LM4951 features a low-power consumption
active-low shutdown mode. Additionally, the LM4951
features an internal thermal shutdown protection
mechanism.
The LM4951 contains advanced click and pop
circuitry that eliminates noises which would otherwise
occur during turn-on and turn-off transitions.
The LM4951 is unity-gain stable and can be
configured by external gain-setting resistors.

All voltages are measured with respect to the GND pin, unless otherwise specified.
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 ensure specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC and AC electrical
specifications under particular test conditions which ensure specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the
Operating Ratings. Specifications are not specified for parameters where no limit is given, however, the typical value is a good indication
of device performance.
If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and
specifications.
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 P DMAX = (TJMAX − TA) / θJA or the given in Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is
lower. For the LM4951 typical application (shown in Figure 1) with VDD = 7.5V, RL = 8Ω mono-BTL operation the max power dissipation
is 1.42W. θJA = 73°C/W.
Human body model, 100pF discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor.
Machine Model, 220pF–240pF discharged through all pins.

SNAS244N – AUGUST 2004 – REVISED MAY 2013

APPLICATION INFORMATION
HIGH VOLTAGE BOOMER
Unlike previous 5V Boomer amplifiers, the LM4951 is designed to operate over a power supply voltages range of
2.7V to 9V. Operating on a 7.5V power supply, the LM4951 will deliver 1.8W into an 8Ω BTL load with no more
than 1% THD+N.
BRIDGE CONFIGURATION EXPLANATION
As shown in Figure 1, the LM4951 consists of two operational amplifiers that drive a speaker connected between
their outputs. The value of input and feedback resistors determine the gain of each amplifier. External resistors Ri
and Rf set the closed-loop gain of AMPA, whereas two 20kΩ internal resistors set AMPB's gain to -1. The
LM4951 drives a load, such as a speaker, connected between the two amplifier outputs, VO+ and VO -. Figure 1
shows that AMPA's output serves as AMPB's input. This results in both amplifiers producing signals identical in
magnitude, but 180° out of phase. Taking advantage of this phase difference, a load is placed between AMPA
and AMPB and driven differentially (commonly referred to as "bridge mode"). This results in a differential, or BTL,
gain of
AVD = 2(Rf/ Ri)
(1)
Bridge mode amplifiers are different from single-ended amplifiers that drive loads connected between a single
amplifier's output and ground. For a given supply voltage, bridge mode has a distinct advantage over the singleended configuration: its differential output doubles the voltage swing across the load. Theoretically, this produces
four times the output power when compared to a single-ended amplifier under the same conditions. This increase
in attainable output power assumes that the amplifier is not current limited and that the output signal is not
clipped. To ensure minimum output signal clipping when choosing an amplifier's closed-loop gain, refer to the
AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER DESIGN section. Under rare conditions, with unique combinations of high power
supply voltage and high closed loop gain settings, the LM4951 may exhibit low frequency oscillations.
Another advantage of the differential bridge output is no net DC voltage across the load. This is accomplished by
biasing AMP1's and AMP2's outputs at half-supply. This eliminates the coupling capacitor that single supply,
single-ended amplifiers require. Eliminating an output coupling capacitor in a typical single-ended configuration
forces a single-supply amplifier's half-supply bias voltage across the load. This increases internal IC power
dissipation and may permanently damage loads such as speakers.
POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a successful bridged amplifier.
The LM4951's dissipation when driving a BTL load is given by Equation (2). For a 7.5V supply and a single 8Ω
BTL load, the dissipation is 1.42W.
PDMAX-MONOBTL = 4(VDD) 2/ 2π2RL: Bridge Mode
(2)
The maximum power dissipation point given by Equation (2) must not exceed the power dissipation given by
Equation (3):
PDMAX' = (TJMAX - TA) / θJA
(3)
The LM4951's TJMAX = 150°C. In the DPR package, the LM4951's θJA is 73°C/W when the metal tab is soldered
to a copper plane of at least 1in2. This plane can be split between the top and bottom layers of a two-sided PCB.
Connect the two layers together under the tab with an array of vias. At any given ambient temperature TA, use
Equation (3) to find the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC packaging. Rearranging
Equation (3) and substituting PDMAX for PDMAX' results in Equation (4). This equation gives the maximum ambient
temperature that still allows maximum stereo power dissipation without violating the LM4951's maximum junction
temperature.
TA = TJMAX - PDMAX-MONOBTLθJA
(4)
For a typical application with a 7.5V power supply and a BTL 8Ω load, the maximum ambient temperature that
allows maximum stereo power dissipation without exceeding the maximum junction temperature is approximately
46°C for the TS package.

SNAS244N – AUGUST 2004 – REVISED MAY 2013
TJMAX = PDMAX-MONOBTLθJA + TA
(5)
Equation (5) gives the maximum junction temperature TJMAX. If the result violates the LM4951's 150°C, reduce
the maximum junction temperature by reducing the power supply voltage or increasing the load resistance.
Further allowance should be made for increased ambient temperatures.
The above examples assume that a device is operating around the maximum power dissipation point. Since
internal power dissipation is a function of output power, higher ambient temperatures are allowed as output
power or duty cycle decreases.
If the result of Equation 2 is greater than that of Equation (3), then decrease the supply voltage, increase the
load impedance, or reduce the ambient temperature. Further, ensure that speakers rated at a nominal 8Ω do not
fall below 6Ω. If these measures are insufficient, a heat sink can be added to reduce θJA. The heat sink can be
created using additional copper area around the package, with connections to the ground pins, supply pin and
amplifier output pins. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics curves for power dissipation information at
lower output power levels.
POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE LIMITS
Continuous proper operation is ensured by never exceeding the voltage applied to any pin, with respect to
ground, as listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
As with any power amplifier, proper supply bypassing is critical for low noise performance and high power supply
rejection. Applications that employ a voltage regulator typically use a 10µF in parallel with a 0.1µF filter
capacitors to stabilize the regulator's output, reduce noise on the supply line, and improve the supply's transient
response. However, their presence does not eliminate the need for a local 1.0µF tantalum bypass capacitance
connected between the LM4951's supply pins and ground. Do not substitute a ceramic capacitor for the
tantalum. Doing so may cause oscillation. Keep the length of leads and traces that connect capacitors between
the LM4951's power supply pin and ground as short as possible. Connecting a larger capacitor, CBYPASS,
between the BYPASS pin and ground improves the internal bias voltage's stability and improves the amplifier's
PSRR. The PSRR improvements increase as the bypass pin capacitor value increases. Too large, however,
increases turn-on time and can compromise the amplifier's click and pop performance. The selection of bypass
capacitor values, especially CBYPASS, depends on desired PSRR requirements, click and pop performance (as
explained in the section, SELECTING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS), system cost, and size constraints.
MICRO-POWER SHUTDOWN
The LM4951 features an active-low micro-power shutdown mode. When active, the LM4951's micro-power
shutdown feature turns off the amplifier's bias circuitry, reducing the supply current. The low 0.01µA typical
shutdown current is achieved by applying a voltage to the SHUTDOWN pin that is as near to GND as possible. A
voltage that is greater than GND may increase the shutdown current.
There are a few methods to control the micro-power shutdown. These include using a single-pole, single-throw
switch (SPST), a microprocessor, or a microcontroller. When using a switch, connect the SPST switch between
the shutdown pin and VDD. Select normal amplifier operation by closing the switch. Opening the switch applies
GND to the SHUTDOWN pin activating micro-power shutdwon.The switch and internal pull-down resistor
ensures that the SHUTDOWN pin will not float. This prevents unwanted state changes. In a system with a
microprocessor or a microcontroller, use a digital output to apply the active-state voltage to the SHUTDOWN pin.
SELECTING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Input Capacitor Value Selection
Two quantities determine the value of the input coupling capacitor: the lowest audio frequency that requires
amplification and desired output transient suppression.
As shown in Figure 1, the input resistor (Ri) and the input capacitor (Ci) produce a high pass filter cutoff
frequency that is found using Equation 6.
fc = 1/2πRiCi

As an example when using a speaker with a low frequency limit of 50Hz, Ci, using Equation (6) is 0.159µF. The
0.39µF CINA shown in Figure 1 allows the LM4951 to drive high efficiency, full range speaker whose response
extends below 30Hz.
Selecting Value For RC
The LM4951 is designed for very fast turn on time. The Cchg pin allows the input capacitors (CinA and CinB) to
charge quickly to improve click/pop performance. Rchg1 and Rchg2 protect the Cchg pins from any over/under
voltage conditions caused by excessive input signal or an active input signal when the device is in shutdown.
The recommended value for Rchg1 and Rchg2 is 1kΩ. If the input signal is less than VDD+0.3V and greater than
-0.3V, and if the input signal is disabled when in shutdown mode, Rchg1 and Rchg2 may be shorted out.
OPTIMIZING CLICK AND POP REDUCTION PERFORMANCE
The LM4951 contains circuitry that eliminates turn-on and shutdown transients ("clicks and pops"). For this
discussion, turn-on refers to either applying the power supply voltage or when the micro-power shutdown mode
is deactivated.
As the VDD/2 voltage present at the BYPASS pin ramps to its final value, the LM4951's internal amplifiers are
configured as unity gain buffers. An internal current source charges the capacitor connected between the
BYPASS pin and GND in a controlled manner. Ideally, the input and outputs track the voltage applied to the
BYPASS pin.
The gain of the internal amplifiers remains unity until the voltage on the bypass pin reaches VDD/2. As soon as
the voltage on the bypass pin is stable, there is a delay to prevent undesirable output transients (“click and
pops”). After this delay, the device becomes fully functional.
AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER DESIGN
Audio Amplifier Design: Driving 1.8W into an 8Ω BTL
The following are the desired operational parameters:
Power Output
1.8WRMS
Load Impedance
8Ω
Input Level
0.3VRMS (max)
Input Impedance
20kΩ
Bandwidth
50Hz–20kHz ± 0.25dB
The design begins by specifying the minimum supply voltage necessary to obtain the specified output power.
One way to find the minimum supply voltage is to use the Equation (7) curve in the Typical Performance
Characteristics section. Another way, using Equation 7, is to calculate the peak output voltage necessary to
achieve the desired output power for a given load impedance. To account for the amplifier's dropout voltage, two
additional voltages, based on the Figure 30 in the Typical Performance Characteristics curves, must be added to
the result obtained by Equation (7). The result is Equation (8).
(7)
(8)
VDD = VOUTPEAK + VODTOP + VODBOT
The commonly used 7.5V supply voltage easily meets this. The additional voltage creates the benefit of
headroom, allowing the LM4951 to produce peak output power in excess of 1.8W without clipping or other
audible distortion. The choice of supply voltage must also not create a situation that violates of maximum power
dissipation as explained above in the POWER DISSIPATION section. After satisfying the LM4951's power
dissipation requirements, the minimum differential gain needed to achieve 1.8W dissipation in an 8Ω BTL load is
found using Equation (9).
(9)
Thus, a minimum gain of 12.6 allows the LM4951's to reach full output swing and maintain low noise and THD+N
performance. For this example, let AV-BTL = 13. The amplifier's overall BTL gain is set using the input (Ri) and
feedback (Rf) resistors of the first amplifier in the series BTL configuration. Additionaly, AV-BTL is twice the gain
set by the first amplifier's Ri and Rf. With the desired input impedance set at 20kΩ, the feedback resistor is found
using Equation (10).

Rf/ Ri = AV-BTL/ 2
(10)
The value of Rf is 130kΩ (choose 191kΩ, the closest value). The nominal output power is 1.8W.
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 and 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
an
fL = 50Hz / 5 = 10Hz
(11)
and an
fL = 20kHz x 5 = 100kHz
(12)
As mentioned in the SELECTING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS section, Ri and Ci create a highpass filter that
sets the amplifier's lower bandpass frequency limit. Find the coupling capacitor's value using Equation (13).
Ci = 1 / 2πRifL
(13)
The result is
1 / (2πx20kΩx10Hz) = 0.795µF
(14)
Use a 0.82µF 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 = 7 and fH = 100kHz, the closed-loop gain bandwidth
product (GBWP) is 700kHz. This is less than the LM4951's 3.5MHz GBWP. With this margin, the amplifier can
be used in designs that require more differential gain while avoiding performance restricting bandwidth
limitations.
