LM4852
Integrated Audio Amplifier System
General Description
Key Specifications
The LM4852 is an audio power amplifier system capable of
delivering 1.1W (typ) of continuous average power into a
mono 8Ω bridged-tied load (BTL) with 1% THD+N and
60mW (typ) per channel of continuous average power into
stereo 32Ω single-ended (SE) loads with 0.5% THD+N, using a 5V power supply.
n THD+N at 1kHz, 1.1W into 8Ω BTL
n THD+N at 1kHz, 60mW into 32Ω SE
n Single Supply Operation
The LM4852 features a 32 step digital volume control and
eight distinct output modes. The digital volume control and
output modes are programmed through a two-wire I2C compatible control interface, that allows flexibility in routing and
mixing audio channels. The LM4852 has 3 channels: one
pair for a two-channel stereo signal and the third for a
single-channel mono input.
The LM4852 is designed for cellular phone, PDA, and other
portable handheld applications. It delivers high quality output
power from a surface-mount package and requires only
seven external components.
The industry leading micro SMD package only utilizes 2mm
x 2.3mm of PCB space, making the LM4852 the most space
efficient audio sub system available today.

I2C PIN DESCRIPTION
The “start” signal is generated by lowering the data signal
while the clock signal is high. The start signal will alert all
devices attached to the I2C bus to check the incoming address against their own chip address.
SDA: This is the serial data input pin.
SCL: This is the clock input pin.
ADR: This is the address select input pin.
The 8-bit chip address is sent next, most significant bit first.
Each address bit must be stable while the clock level is high.
After the last bit of the address is sent, the master checks for
the LM4852’s acknowledge. The master releases the data
line high (through a pullup resistor). Then the master sends
a clock pulse. If the LM4852 has received the address
correctly, then it holds the data line low during the clock
pulse. If the data line is not low, then the master should send
a “stop” signal (discussed later) and abort the transfer.
The 8 bits of data are sent next, most significant bit first.
Each data bit should be valid while the clock level is stable
high.
After the data byte is sent, the master must generate another
acknowledge to see if the LM4852 received the data.
If the master has more data bytes to send to the LM4852,
then the master can repeat the previous two steps until all
data bytes have been sent.
The “stop” signal ends the transfer. To signal “stop”, the data
signal goes high while the clock signal is high.
2
I C INTERFACE
The LM4852 uses a serial bus, which conforms to the I2C
protocol, to control the chip’s functions with two wires: clock
and data. The clock line is uni-directional. The data line is
bi-directional (open-collector) with a pullup resistor (typically
10kΩ).The maximum clock frequency specified by the I2C
standard is 400kHz. In this discussion, the master is the
controlling microcontroller and the slave is the LM4852.
The I2C address for the LM4852 is determined using the
ADR pin. The LM4852’s two possible I2C chip addresses are
of the form 110110X10 (binary), where the X1 = 0, if ADR is
logic low; and X1 = 1, if ADR is logic high. If the I2C interface
is used to address a number of chips in a system and the
LM4852’s chip address can be changed to avoid address
conflicts.
The timing diagram for the I2C is shown in Figure 2. The data
is latched in on the stable high level of the clock and the data
line should be held high when not in use. The timing diagram
is broken up into six major sections:

EXPOSED-DAP MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
The LM4852’s exposed-DAP (die attach paddle) package
(LD) provides a low thermal resistance between the die and
the PCB to which the part is mounted and soldered. This
allows rapid heat transfer from the die to the surrounding
PCB copper area heatsink, copper traces, ground plane, and
finally, surrounding air. The result is a low voltage audio
power amplifier that produces 1.1W dissipation in a 8Ω load
at ≤ 1% THD+N. This high power is achieved through careful
consideration of necessary thermal design. Failing to optimize thermal design may compromise the LM4852’s high
power performance and activate unwanted, though necessary, thermal shutdown protection.
The LD package must have its DAP soldered to a copper
pad on the PCB. The DAP’s PCB copper pad is then, ideally,
connected to a large plane of continuous unbroken copper.
This plane forms a thermal mass, heat sink, and radiation
area. Place the heat sink area on either outside plane in the
G
case of a two-sided or multi-layer PCB. (The heat sink area
can also be placed on an inner layer of a multi-layer board.
The thermal resistance, however, will be higher.) Connect
the DAP copper pad to the inner layer or backside copper
heat sink area with 6 (3 X 2) (LD) vias. The via diameter
should be 0.012in - 0.013in with a 1.27mm pitch. Ensure
efficient thermal conductivity by plugging and tenting the vias
with plating and solder mask, respectively.
Best thermal performance is achieved with the largest practical copper heat sink area. If the heatsink and amplifier
share the same PCB layer, a nominal 2.5in2 (min) area is
necessary for 5V operation with a 4Ω load. Heatsink areas
not placed on the same PCB layer as the LM4852 should be
5in2 (min) for the same supply voltage and load resistance.
The last two area recommendations apply for 25˚C ambient
temperature. Increase the area to compensate for ambient
temperatures above 25˚C. In all circumstances and under all
conditions, the junction temperature must be held below

POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a
successful single-ended or bridged amplifier.
PCB LAYOUT AND SUPPLY REGULATION
CONSIDERATIONS FOR DRIVING 3Ω AND 4Ω LOADS
A direct consequence of the increased power delivered to
the load by a bridge amplifier is higher internal power dissipation. The LM4852 has a pair of bridged-tied amplifiers
driving a handsfree speaker, SPKROUT. The maximum internal power dissipation operating in the bridge mode is
twice that of a single-ended amplifier. From Equation (2),
assuming a 5V power supply and an 8Ω load, the maximum
SPKROUT power dissipation is 634mW.
Power dissipated by a load is a function of the voltage swing
across the load and the load’s impedance. As load impedance decreases, load dissipation becomes increasingly dependent on the interconnect (PCB trace and wire) resistance
between the amplifier output pins and the load’s connections. Residual trace resistance causes a voltage drop,
which results in power dissipated in the trace and not in the
load as desired. For example, 0.1Ω trace resistance reduces
the output power dissipated by a 4Ω load from 1.7W to 1.6W.
The problem of decreased load dissipation is exacerbated
as load impedance decreases. Therefore, to maintain the
highest load dissipation and widest output voltage swing,
PCB traces that connect the output pins to a load must be as
wide as possible.
Poor power supply regulation adversely affects maximum
output power. A poorly regulated supply’s output voltage
decreases with increasing load current. Reduced supply
voltage causes decreased headroom, output signal clipping,
and reduced output power. Even with tightly regulated supplies, trace resistance creates the same effects as poor
supply regulation. Therefore, making the power supply
traces as wide as possible helps maintain full output voltage
swing.
PDMAX-SPKROUT = 4(VDD)2 / (2π2 RL): Bridge Mode (2)
The LM4852 also has a pair of single-ended amplifiers driving stereo headphones, ROUT and LOUT. The maximum
internal power dissipation for ROUT and LOUT is given by
equation (3) and (4). From Equations (3) and (4), assuming
a 5V power supply and a 32Ω load, the maximum power
dissipation for LOUT and ROUT is 40mW, or 80mW total.
PDMAX-LOUT = (VDD)2 / (2π2 RL): Single-ended Mode (3)
PDMAX-ROUT = (VDD)2 / (2π2 RL): Single-ended Mode (4)
BRIDGE CONFIGURATION EXPLANATION
As shown in Figure 1, the LM4852 consists of three pairs of
output amplifier blocks (A4-A6). Amplifier block A6 consists
of a bridged-tied amplifier pair that drives SPKROUT. The
LM4852 drives a load, such as a speaker, connected between outputs, SPKROUT+ and SPKROUT-. In the amplifier
block A6, the output of the amplifier that drives SPKROUTserves as the input to the unity gain inverting amplifier that
drives SPKROUT+.
The maximum internal power dissipation of the LM4852
occurs when all 3 amplifiers pairs are simultaneously on; and
is given by Equation (5).
PDMAX-TOTAL =
PDMAX-SPKROUT + PDMAX-LOUT + PDMAX-ROUT
The maximum power dissipation point given by Equation (5)
must not exceed the power dissipation given by Equation
(6):
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 SPKROUT- and
SPKROUT+ and driven differentially (commonly referred to
as ’bridge mode’). This results in a differential or BTL gain of:
AVD = 2(Rf / Ri) = 2
PDMAX’ = (TJMAX - TA) / θJA
(6)
The LM4852’s TJMAX = 150˚C. In the ITL package, the
LM4852’s θJA is 48˚C/W. In the LD package soldered to a
DAP pad that expands to a copper area of 2.5in2 on a PCB,
the LM4852’s θJA is 42˚C/W. At any given ambient temperature TA, use Equation (6) to find the maximum internal power
dissipation supported by the IC packaging. Rearranging
Equation (6) and substituting PDMAX-TOTAL for PDMAX’ results
in Equation (7). This equation gives the maximum ambient
temperature that still allows maximum stereo power dissipation without violating the LM4852’s maximum junction temperature.
(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 single-ended 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.
Another advantage of the differential bridge output is no net
DC voltage across the load. This is accomplished by biasing
SPKROUT- and SPKROUT+ outputs at half-supply. This
eliminates the coupling capacitor that single supply, singleended amplifiers require. Eliminating an output coupling cawww.national.com

TA = TJMAX - PDMAX-TOTAL θJA

For a typical application with a 5V power supply and an 8Ω
load, the maximum ambient temperature that allows maxi-

large, however, increases turn-on time and can compromise
the amplifier’s click and pop performance. The selection of
bypass capacitor values, especially CB, depends on desired
PSRR requirements, click and pop performance (as explained in the section, Proper Selection of External Components), system cost, and size constraints.

mum stereo power dissipation without exceeding the maximum junction temperature is approximately 104˚C for the
IBL package.

SELECTING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Input Capacitor Value Selection
Amplifying the lowest audio frequencies requires high value
input coupling capacitor (Ci in Figure 3). A high value capacitor can be expensive and may compromise space efficiency
in portable designs. In many cases, however, the speakers
used in portable systems, whether internal or external, have
little ability to reproduce signals below 150Hz. Applications
using speakers with this limited frequency response reap
little improvement by using large input capacitor.
The internal input resistor (Ri) and the input capacitor (Ci)
produce a high pass filter cutoff frequency that is found using
Equation (9).
Equation (8) gives the maximum junction temperature TJMAX. If the result violates the LM4852’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 a surface
mount part 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 (5) is
greater than that of Equation (6), then decrease the supply
voltage, increase the load impedance, or reduce the ambient
temperature. 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 pin(s), supply pin and amplifier output
pins. External, solder attached SMT heatsinks such as the
Thermalloy 7106D can also improve power dissipation.
When adding a heat sink, the θJA is the sum of θJC, θCS, and
θSA. (θJC is the junction-to-case thermal impedance, θCS is
the case-to-sink thermal impedance, and θSA is the sink-toambient thermal impedance.) Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics curves for power dissipation information at lower output power levels.
fc = 1 / (2πRiCi)
(9)
As an example when using a speaker with a low frequency
limit of 150Hz, Ci, using Equation (9) is 0.063µF. The 0.22µF
Ci shown in Figure 1 allows the LM4852 to drive high efficiency, full range speaker whose response extends below
40Hz.
Bypass Capacitor Value Selection
Besides minimizing the input capacitor size, careful consideration should be paid to value of CB, the capacitor connected to the BYPASS pin. Since CB determines how fast
the LM4852 settles to quiescent operation, its value is critical
when minimizing turn-on pops. The slower the LM4852’s
outputs ramp to their quiescent DC voltage (nominally VDD/
2), the smaller the turn-on pop. Choosing CB equal to 1.0µF
along with a small value of Ci (in the range of 0.1µF to
0.39µF), produces a click-less and pop-less shutdown function. As discussed above, choosing Ci no larger than necessary for the desired bandwidth helps minimize clicks and
pops. CB’s value should be in the range of 5 times to 7 times
the value of Ci. This ensures that output transients are
eliminated when power is first applied or the LM4852 resumes operation after shutdown.
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 5V 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
LM4852’s supply pins and ground. Keep the length of leads
and traces that connect capacitors between the LM4852’s
power supply pin and ground as short as possible. Connecting a 1µF capacitor, CB, 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
