The first amplifier’s gain is externally configurable, while the second amplifier is internally fixed in a unity-gain, inverting configuration. The closed-loop gain of the first amplifier is set by selecting the ratio of RF to Ri while the second amplifier’s gain is fixed by the two internal 20kΩ resistors. Figure1shows that the output of amplifier one serves as the input to amplifier two which results in both amplifiers producing signals identical in magnitude, but out of phase by 180˚. Consequently, the differential gain for the IC is AVD= 2 *(RF/Ri) By driving the load differentially through outputs Vo1 and Vo2, an amplifier configuration commonly referred to as “bridged mode” is established. Bridged mode operation is different from the classical single-ended amplifier configuration where one side of the load is connected to ground. A bridge amplifier design has a few distinct advantages over the single-ended configuration, as it provides differential drive to the load, thus doubling output swing for a specified supply voltage. Four times the output power is possible as compared to a single-ended amplifier under the same conditions. This increase in attainable output power assumes that the amplifier is not current limited or clipped. In order to choose an amplifier’s closed-loop gain without causing excessive clipping, please refer to the Audio Power Amplifier Design section. A bridge configuration, such as the one used in PT5301, also creates a second advantage over single-ended amplifiers. Since the differential outputs, Vo1 and Vo2, are biased at half-supply, no net DC voltage exists across the load. This eliminates the need for an output coupling capacitor which is required in a single supply, single-ended amplifier configuration. Without an output coupling capacitor, the half-supply bias across the load would result in both increased internal IC power dissipation and also possible loudspeaker damage. Power Dissipation Power dissipation is a major concern when designing a successful amplifier, whether the amplifier is bridged or single-ended. A direct consequence of the increased power delivered to the load by a bridge amplifier is an increase in internal power dissipation. Since the PT5301 has two operational amplifiers in one package, China Resources Powtech (Shanghai) Limited PT5301_DS Rev EN_1.3 the maximum internal power dissipation is 4 times that of a single-ended amplifier. The maximum power dissipation for a given application can be derived from the power dissipation graphs or from Equation 1. 2 2 PDMAX = 4*(VDD) /(2π RL) (1) It is critical that the maximum junction temperature TJMAX of 150˚C is not exceeded. TJMAX can be determined from the power derating curves by using PDMAX and the PC board foil area. By adding copper foil, the thermal resistance of the application can be reduced from the free air value of θJA, resulting in higher PDMAX values without thermal shutdown protection circuitry being activated. Additional copper foil can be added to any of the leads connected to the PT5301. It is especially effective when connected to VDD, GND, and the output pins. If TJMAX still exceeds 150˚C, then additional changes must be made. These changes can include reduced supply voltage, higher load impedance, or reduced ambient temperature. Internal power dissipation is a function of output power. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics curves for power dissipation information for different output powers and output loading. Power Supply Bypassing As with any amplifier, proper supply bypassing is critical for low noise performance and high power supply rejection. The capacitor location on both the bypass and power supply pins should be as close to the device as possible. Typical applications employ a 5V regulator with 10µF tantalum or electrolytic capacitor and a ceramic bypass capacitor which aid in supply stability. This does not eliminate the need for bypassing the supply nodes of the PT5301. The selection of a bypass capacitor, especially CB, is dependent upon PSRR requirements, click and pop performance (as explained in the section, Proper Selection of External Components), system cost, and size constraints. Shutdown Function In order to reduce power consumption while not in use, the PT5301 contains shutdown circuitry that is used to turn off the amplifier’s bias circuitry whenever the Shutdown pin is put at logical “low”. While the device may be disabled with shutdown voltages in between ground and supply, the idle current may be greater than the typical value of 0.1µA. Therefore, the shutdown pin should be tied to a definite voltage to avoid unwanted state changes. In many applications, WWW.CRPOWTECH.COM a microcontroller or Page10 PT5301 2 Watts Audio Power Amplifier microprocessor output is used to control the shutdown circuitry, which provides a quick, smooth transition to shutdown. Another solution is to use a single-throw switch in conjunction with an external pull-up resistor (or pull-down, depending on shutdown high or low application). This scheme guarantees that the shutdown pin will not float, thus preventing unwanted state changes. Proper Selection of External Components Proper selection of external components in applications using integrated power amplifiers is critical to optimize device and system performance. While the PT5301 is tolerant of external component combinations, consideration to component values must be used to maximize overall system quality. The PT5301 is unity-gain stable which gives the designer maximum system flexibility. The PT5301 should be used in low gain configurations to minimize THD+N+N values, and maximize the signal to noise ratio. Low gain configurations require large input signals to obtain a given output power. Input signals equal to or greater than 1Vrms are available from sources such as audio codecs. Please refer to the section, Audio Power Amplifier Design, for a more complete explanation of proper gain selection. Besides gain, one of the major considerations is the closed loop bandwidth of the amplifier. To a large extent, the bandwidth is dictated by the choice of external components shown in Figure1. The input coupling capacitor, Ci, forms a first order high pass filter which limits low frequency response. This value should be chosen based on needed frequency response for a few distinct reasons. Large input capacitors are both expensive and space hungry for portable designs. Clearly, a certain sized capacitor is needed to couple in low frequencies without severe attenuation. But in many cases the speakers used in portable systems, whether internal or external, have little ability to reproduce signals below 100Hz to 150Hz. Thus, using a large input capacitor may not increase actual system performance. In addition to system cost and size, click and pop performance is effected by the size of the input coupling capacitor, i. A larger input coupling capacitor requires more charge to reach its quiescent DC voltage (nominally 1/2 VDD). This charge comes from the output via the feedback and is apt to create pops upon device enable. Thus, by minimizing the capacitor size based on necessary low frequency response, turn-on pops can be minimized. Besides minimizing the input capacitor size, careful China Resources Powtech (Shanghai) Limited PT5301_DS Rev EN_1.3 consideration should be paid to the bypass capacitor value. Bypass capacitor, CB, is the most critical component to minimize turn-on pops since it determines how fast the PT5301 turns on. The slower the PT5301’s outputs ramp to their quiescent DC voltage (nominally 1/2 VDD), 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), should produce a virtually pop & click free shutdown function. While the device will function properly, (no oscillations or motorboating), with CB equal to 0.1µF, the device will be much more susceptible to turn-on clicks and pops. Thus, a value of CB equal to 1.0µF is recommended in all but the most cost sensitive designs. Audio Power Amplifier Design A 1W/8Ω Audio Amplifier Given: Power Output Load Impedance Input Level Input Impedance Bandwidth 1Wrms 8Ω 1Vrms 20kΩ 100Hz–20kHz ± 0.25dB 5V is a standard voltage in most applications, it is chosen for the supply rail. Extra supply voltage creates headroom that allows the PT5301 to reproduce peaks in excess of 1W without producing audible distortion. At this time, the designer must make sure that the power supply choice along with the output impedance does not violate the conditions explained in the Power Dissipation section. Once the power dissipation equations have been addressed, the required differential gain can be determined from Equation 2. AVD = (PO PL ) /(VIN ) = Vorms / Vinrms (2) RF / Ri = AVD / 2 From Equation 2, the minimum AVD is 2.83; use AVD =3. Since the desired input impedance was 20kΩ, and with an AVD impedance of 2, a ratio of 1.5:1 of RF to Ri results in an allocation of Ri = 20kΩ and RF = 30kΩ. The final design step is to address the bandwidth requirements which must be stated as a pair of −3dB frequency points. Five times away from a −3dB point is 0.17dB down from passband response which is better than the required ±0.25dB specified. fL = 100Hz/5 = 20Hz fH = 20kHz×5= 100kHz WWW.CRPOWTECH.COM Page11 PT5301 2 Watts Audio Power Amplifier The PT5301 is unity gain stable and requires no external components besides gain-setting resistors, an input coupling capacitor, and proper supply bypass in the typical application. However, if a closed-loop gain is much greater than the normal setting value (i.e. gain = 10), a feedback capacitor (C4) may be required as shown in Figure 2. to limit the bandwidth of the amplifier. The feedback capacitor creates a low pass filter that eliminates the possible high frequency oscillations. Be aware that an possible inadequate combination of R3 and C4 will cause roll-off before 20kHz. A typical combination is R3 = 20kΩ and C4 = 25pf. Users could refer this combination when design a high gain audio amplifier. As mentioned in the External Components section, Ri in conjunction with Ci create a high-pass filter. Ci ≥ 1/(2π×20kΩ×20Hz) = 0.397µF; use 0.39µF The high frequency pole is determined by the product of the desired frequency pole, fH, and the differential gain, AVD. With an AVD = 3 and fH = 100kHz, the resulting GBWP = 300kHz which is much smaller than the PT5301 GBWP of 2.0MHz. This figure displays that if a designer has a need to design an amplifier with a higher differential gain, the PT5301 can still be used without running into bandwidth limitations.

Fully-differential Application for PT5301 China Resources Powtech (Shanghai) Limited PT5301_DS Rev EN_1.3 WWW.CRPOWTECH.COM Page12 PT5301 2 Watts Audio Power Amplifier performance is achieved with the largest practical copper heat sink area. Thermal Considerations for Driving 4ΩLoad When driving 4Ω load, the internal power dissipation of the PT5301 must be carefully considerated. Failing to optimize thermal design may compromise the PT5301’s high power performance and activate unwanted, though necessary, thermal protection. In all circumstances and conditions, the junction temperature must be held below 150°C to prevent activating the PT5301’s thermal protection. The maximum allowable power dissipation is limited by thermal resistance of the package. When the supply voltage is higher than 4V, the PT5301’s MSOP or SMD package isn’t recommended to drive 4Ω load. The PT5301’s exposed-PAD QFN package 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 traces, ground plane and, finally, surrounding air. The result is a low voltage audio power amplifier that produces 2W at ≤1% THD with a 4Ω load. This high power is achieved through careful consideration of necessary thermal design. The QFN package must have its exposed-PAD soldered to a copper pad on the PCB. The exposed-PAD’s PCB copper pad is connected to a large plane of continuous unbroken copper. This plane forms a thermal mass and heat sink and radiation area. Place the heat sink area on either outside plane in the case of a two-sided PCB, or on an inner layer of a board with more than two layers. Connect the exposed-PAD’s copper pad to the inner layer or backside copper heat sink area with several vias. Ensure efficient thermal conductivity by plating through and solder-filling the vias.

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 2.0W to 1.9W. This 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 WWW.CRPOWTECH.COM Page13 PT5301 2 Watts Audio Power Amplifier PACKAGE INFORMATION E SMD9 Package PIN A1 A2 D A1 e b A e SYMBOL MIN MAX A 0.635 0.735 A1 0.209 0.249 A2 0.426 0.486 b 0.25 0.35 D 1.47 1.53 E 1.47 1.53 e China Resources Powtech (Shanghai) Limited PT5301_DS Rev EN_1.3 MILLIMETERS 0.50 BSC WWW.CRPOWTECH.COM Page14 PT5301 2 Watts Audio Power Amplifier PACKAGE INFORMATION MSOP8 Package b e c θ A2 D A SYMBOL MILLIMETERS INCHES MIN MAX MIN MAX A 0.820 1.100 0.032 0.043 A1 0.020 0.150 0.001 0.006 A2 0.750 0.950 0.030 0.037 b 0.250 0.380 0.010 0.015 c 0.090 0.230 0.004 0.009 D 2.900 3.100 0.114 0.122 e 0.650(BSC) 0.026(BSC) E 2.900 3.100 0.114 0.122 E1 4.750 5.050 0.187 0.199 L 0.400 0.800 0.016 0.031 θ 0° 6° 0° 6° China Resources Powtech (Shanghai) Limited PT5301_DS Rev EN_1.3 WWW.CRPOWTECH.COM Page15 PT5301 2 Watts Audio Power Amplifier PACKAGE INFORMATION DFN8 Package China Resources Powtech (Shanghai) Limited PT5301_DS Rev EN_1.3 WWW.CRPOWTECH.COM Page16
