Filterless, High Efficiency, Mono 3 W Class-D Audio Amplifier SSM2335 The SSM2335 features a high efficiency, low noise modulation scheme that requires no external LC output filters. The modulation continues to provide high efficiency even at low output power. It operates with 93% efficiency at 1.4 W into 8 Ω or 85% efficiency at 3 W into 3 Ω from a 5.0 V supply and has an SNR of >96 dB. Spread-spectrum pulse density modulation is used to provide lower EMI-radiated emissions compared with other Class-D architectures. FEATURES Filterless Class-D amplifier with Σ-Δ modulation No sync necessary when using multiple Class-D amplifiers from Analog Devices, Inc. 3 W into 3 Ω load and 1.4 W into 8 Ω load at 5.0 V supply with <1% total harmonic distortion (THD + N) 93% efficiency at 5.0 V, 1.4 W into 8 Ω speaker >96 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) Single-supply operation from 2.5 V to 5.5 V 20 nA ultralow shutdown current Short-circuit and thermal protection Available in 9-ball, 1.5 mm × 1.5 mm WLCSP Pop-and-click suppression Built-in resistors reduce board component count Default fixed 18 dB or user-adjustable gain setting The SSM2335 has a micropower shutdown mode with a typical shutdown current of 20 nA. Shutdown is enabled by applying a logic low to the SD pin. The device also includes pop-and-click suppression circuitry. This suppression circuitry minimizes voltage glitches at the output during turn-on and turn-off, reducing audible noise on activation and deactivation. APPLICATIONS The fully differential input of the SSM2335 provides excellent rejection of common-mode noise on the input. Input coupling capacitors can be omitted if the input dc common-mode voltage is approximately VDD/2. Mobile phones MP3 players Portable gaming Portable electronics Educational toys The default gain of the SSM2335 is 18 dB, but users can reduce the gain by using a pair of external resistors (see the Gain section). GENERAL DESCRIPTION The SSM2335 is specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C. It has built-in thermal shutdown and output short-circuit protection. It is available in a 9-ball, 1.5 mm × 1.5 mm wafer level chip scale package (WLCSP). The SSM2335 is a fully integrated, high efficiency, Class-D audio amplifier. It is designed to maximize performance for mobile phone applications. The application circuit requires a minimum of external components and operates from a single 2.5 V to 5.5 V supply. It is capable of delivering 3 W of continuous output power with <1% THD + N driving a 3 Ω load from a 5.0 V supply.

Single-Ended Input Configuration, User-Adjustable Gain Rev. 0 | Page 11 of 16 07551-032 SHUTDOWN SSM2335 THEORY OF OPERATION OVERVIEW OUTPUT MODULATION DESCRIPTION The SSM2335 mono Class-D audio amplifier features a filterless modulation scheme that greatly reduces the external component count, conserving board space and, thus, reducing systems cost. The SSM2335 does not require an output filter but, instead, relies on the inherent inductance of the speaker coil and the natural filtering of the speaker and human ear to fully recover the audio component of the square wave output. Most Class-D amplifiers use some variation of pulse-width modulation (PWM), but the SSM2335 uses Σ-Δ modulation to determine the switching pattern of the output devices, resulting in a number of important benefits. Σ-Δ modulators do not produce a sharp peak with many harmonics in the AM frequency band, as pulse-width modulators often do. Σ-Δ modulation provides the benefits of reducing the amplitude of spectral components at high frequencies, that is, reducing EMI emission that might otherwise be radiated by speakers and long cable traces. The SSM2335 does not require external EMI filtering for twisted speaker cable lengths shorter than 10 cm. Due to the inherent spread-spectrum nature of Σ-Δ modulation, the need for oscillator synchronization is eliminated for designs incorporating multiple SSM2335 amplifiers. The SSM2335 uses three-level, Σ-Δ output modulation. Each output can swing from GND to VDD and vice versa. Ideally, when no input signal is present, the output differential voltage is 0 V because there is no need to generate a pulse. In a real-world situation, there are always noise sources present. GAIN Most of the time, however, output differential voltage is 0 V, due to the Analog Devices patent pending, three-level, Σ-Δ output modulation. This feature ensures that the current flowing through the inductive load is small. When the user wants to send an input signal, an output pulse is generated to follow the input voltage. The differential pulse density is increased by raising the input signal level. Figure 33 depicts three-level, Σ-Δ output modulation with and without input stimulus. OUTPUT = 0V OUT+ 0V +5V OUT– 0V +5V VOUT The SSM2335 has a default gain of 18 dB that can be reduced by using a pair of external resistors with a value calculated as follows: 0V –5V OUTPUT > 0V OUT+ OUT– Voltage transients at the output of audio amplifiers can occur when shutdown is activated or deactivated. Voltage transients as low as 10 mV can be heard as an audio pop in the speaker. Clicks and pops can also be classified as undesirable audible transients generated by the amplifier system and, therefore, as not coming from the system input signal. Such transients may be generated when the amplifier system changes its operating mode. For example, the following may be sources of audible transients: system power-up and power-down, mute and unmute, input source change, and sample rate change. The SSM2335 has a pop-and-click suppression architecture that reduces these output transients, resulting in noiseless activation and deactivation. 0V +5V VOUT 0V OUTPUT < 0V OUT+ OUT– VOUT +5V 0V +5V External Gain Settings = 160 kΩ/(20 kΩ + REXT) POP-AND-CLICK SUPPRESSION +5V +5V 0V +5V 0V 0V –5V 07551-033 The SSM2335 also offers protection circuits for overcurrent and temperature protection. Due to this constant presence of noise, a differential pulse is generated, when required, in response to this stimulus. A small amount of current flows into the inductive load when the differential pulse is generated. Figure 33. Three-Level, Σ-Δ Output Modulation With and Without Input Stimulus Rev. 0 | Page 12 of 16 SSM2335 LAYOUT INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION As output power continues to increase, care must be taken to lay out PCB traces and wires properly among the amplifier, load, and power supply. A good practice is to use short, wide PCB tracks to decrease voltage drops and minimize inductance. Ensure that track widths are at least 200 mil for every inch of track length for lowest DCR, and use 1 oz or 2 oz of copper PCB traces to further reduce IR drops and inductance. A poor layout increases voltage drops, consequently affecting efficiency. Use large traces for the power supply inputs and amplifier outputs to minimize losses due to parasitic trace resistance. The SSM2335 does not require input coupling capacitors if the input signal is biased from 1.0 V to VDD − 1.0 V. Input capacitors are required if the input signal is not biased within this recommended input dc common-mode voltage range, if high-pass filtering is needed, or if a single-ended source is used. If highpass filtering is needed at the input, the input capacitor and the input resistor of the SSM2335 form a high-pass filter whose corner frequency is determined by the following equation: Proper grounding guidelines help to improve audio performance, minimize crosstalk between channels, and prevent switching noise from coupling into the audio signal. To maintain high output swing and high peak output power, the PCB traces that connect the output pins to the load, as well as the PCB traces to the supply pins, should be as wide as possible to maintain the minimum trace resistances. It is also recommended that a large ground plane be used for minimum impedances. In addition, good PCB layout isolates critical analog paths from sources of high interference. High frequency circuits (analog and digital) should be separated from low frequency circuits. Properly designed multilayer PCBs can reduce EMI emission and increase immunity to the RF field by a factor of 10 or more, compared with double-sided boards. A multilayer board allows a complete layer to be used for the ground plane, whereas the ground plane side of a double-sided board is often disrupted by signal crossover. fC = 1/(2π × RIN × CIN) The input capacitor can significantly affect the performance of the circuit. Not using input capacitors degrades both the output offset of the amplifier and the dc PSRR performance. POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING To ensure high efficiency, low total harmonic distortion (THD), and high PSRR, proper power supply decoupling is necessary. Noise transients on the power supply lines are short-duration voltage spikes. Although the actual switching frequency can range from 10 kHz to 100 kHz, these spikes can contain frequency components that extend into the hundreds of megahertz. The power supply input needs to be decoupled with a good quality, low ESL, low ESR capacitor, with a minimum value of 4.7 μF. This capacitor bypasses low frequency noises to the ground plane. For high frequency transient noises, use a 0.1 μF capacitor as close as possible to the VDD pin of the device. Placing the decoupling capacitor as close as possible to the SSM2335 helps to maintain efficient performance. If the system has separate analog and digital ground and power planes, the analog ground plane should be directly beneath the analog power plane, and, similarly, the digital ground plane should be directly beneath the digital power plane. There should be no overlap between analog and digital ground planes or between analog and digital power planes.
