The gain of each channel is set by external input resistors. 4.2 Differential configuration principle The TS4998 also includes a common mode feedback loop that controls the output bias value to average it at VCC/2 for any DC common mode input voltage. This allows maximum output voltage swing, and therefore, to maximize the output power. Moreover, as the load is connected differentially instead of single-ended, output power is four times higher for the same power supply voltage. The advantages of a full-differential amplifier are: ● High PSRR (power supply rejection ratio), ● High common mode noise rejection, ● Virtually no pops&clicks without additional circuitry, giving a faster startup time compared to conventional single-ended input amplifiers, ● Easier interfacing with differential output audio DAC, ● No input coupling capacitors required due to common mode feedback loop. In theory, the filtering of the internal bias by an external bypass capacitor is not necessary. However, to reach maximum performance in all tolerance situations, it is recommended to keep this option. The only constraint is that the differential function is directly linked to external resistor mismatching, therefore you must pay particular attention to this mismatching in order to obtain the best performance from the amplifier. 4.3 Gain in typical application schematic A typical differential application is shown in Figure 1 on page 3. The value of the differential gain of each amplifier is dependent on the values of external input resistors RIN1 to RIN4 and of integrated feedback resistors with fixed value. In the flat region of the frequency-response curve (no CIN effect), the differential gain of each channel is expressed by the relation given in Equation 1. Equation 1 AV diff R feed V O+ – V O- = ------------= ----------------------------------------------------- = 50kΩ -------------Diff input+ – Diff inputR IN R IN where RIN = RIN1 = RIN2 = RIN3 = RIN4 expressed in kΩ and Rfeed = 50kΩ (value of internal feedback resistors). 20/33 TS4998 Application information Due to the tolerance on the internal 50kΩ feedback resistors, the differential gain will be in the range (no tolerance on RIN): 40kΩ -------------- ≤A V ≤60kΩ -------------diff R IN R IN The difference of resistance between input resistors of each channel have direct influence on the PSRR, CMRR and other amplifier parameters. In order to reach maximum performance, we recommend matching the input resistors RIN1, RIN2, RIN3, and RIN4 with a maximum tolerance of 1%. Note: For the rest of this section, Avdiff will be called AV to simplify the mathematical expressions. 4.4 Common mode feedback loop limitations As explained previously, the common mode feedback loop allows the output DC bias voltage to be averaged at VCC/2 for any DC common mode bias input voltage. Due to the VICM limitation of the input stage (see Table 3 on page 4), the common mode feedback loop can fulfil its role only within the defined range. This range depends upon the values of VCC, RIN and Rfeed (AV). To have a good estimation of the VICM value, use the following formula: Equation 2 V CC × R IN + 2 × V ic × 50kΩ V CC × R IN + 2 × V ic × R feed V ICM = --------------------------------------------------------------------------- = --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ( V ) 2 × ( R IN + R feed ) 2 × ( R IN + 50kΩ) with VCC in volts, RIN in kΩ and Diff input+ + Diff inputV ic = ------------------------------------------------------2 (V) The result of the calculation must be in the range: GND ≤ V ICM ≤ V CC – 1V Due to the +/-20% tolerance on the 50kΩ feedback resistors Rfeed (no tolerance on RIN), it is also important to check that the VICM remains in this range at the tolerance limits: V CC × R IN + 2 × V ic × 60kΩ V CC × R IN + 2 × V ic × 40kΩ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ≤V ICM ≤-------------------------------------------------------------------------(V) 2 × ( R IN + 40kΩ) 2 × ( R IN + 60kΩ) If the result of the VICM calculation is not in this range, an input coupling capacitor must be used. Example: VCC = 2.7V, AV = 2, and Vic = 2.2V. With internal resistors Rfeed = 50kΩ, calculated external resistors are RIN = Rfeed/AV = 25kΩ, VCC = 2.7V and Vic = 2.2V, which gives VICM = 1.92V. Taking into account the tolerance on the feedback resistors, with Rfeed = 40kΩ the common mode input voltage is VICM = 1.87V and with Rfeed = 60kΩ, it is VICM = 1.95V. These values are not in range from GND to VCC - 1V = 1.7V, therefore input coupling capacitors are required. Alternatively, you can change the Vic value. 21/33 Application information 4.5 TS4998 Low frequency response The input coupling capacitors block the DC part of the input signal at the amplifier inputs. In the low frequency region, CIN starts to have an effect. CIN and RIN form a first-order high pass filter with a -3dB cut-off frequency. 1 F CL = ----------------------------------------------- ( Hz ) 2 × π × R IN × C IN with RIN expressed in Ω and CIN expressed in F. So, for a desired -3dB cut-off frequency we can calculate CIN: 1 C IN = ------------------------------------------------ ( F ) 2 × π × R IN × F CL From Figure 64, you can easily establish the CIN value required for a -3 dB cut-off frequency for some typical cases. Figure 64. -3dB lower cut-off frequency vs. input capacitance Low -3dB Cut Off Frequency (Hz) Tamb=25 ° C Rin=6.2k Ω G~18dB 100 Rin=12k Ω G~12dB 10 0.1 Rin=24k Ω G~6dB 0.2 0.4 Input Capacitor Cin ( μ F) 22/33 0.6 0.8 1 TS4998 4.6 Application information Power dissipation and efficiency Assumptions: ● Load voltage and current are sinusoidal (Vout and Iout) ● Supply voltage is a pure DC source (VCC) The output voltage is: V out = V peak sinωt (V) and V out I out = ------------- (A) RL and V peak 2 P out = --------------------- (W) 2R L Therefore, the average current delivered by the supply voltage is: Equation 3 V peak I ccAVG = 2 ----------------- (A) πR L The power delivered by the supply voltage is: Equation 4 Psupply = VCC IccAVG (W) Therefore, the power dissipated by each amplifier is: Pdiss = Psupply - Pout (W) 2 2V CC P diss = ---------------------- P out – P out ( W ) π RL and the maximum value is obtained when: ∂Pdiss --------------------- = 0 ∂P out and its value is: Equation 5 Pdiss max = Note: 2 Vcc2 π2RL (W) This maximum value is only dependent on the power supply voltage and load values. 23/33 Application information TS4998 The efficiency is the ratio between the output power and the power supply: Equation 6 P out πV peak η = ------------------- = -------------------P supply 4Vcc The maximum theoretical value is reached when Vpeak = VCC, so: η = π----- = 78.5% 4 The TS4998 is stereo amplifier so it has two power amplifiers. Each amplifier produces heat due to its power dissipation. Therefore, the maximum die temperature is the sum of each amplifier’s maximum power dissipation. It is calculated as follows: ● Pdiss 1 = Power dissipation of left channel power amplifier ● Pdiss 2 = Power dissipation of right channel power amplifier ● Total Pdiss =Pdiss 1 + Pdiss 2 (W) In most cases, Pdiss 1 = Pdiss 2, giving: 4 2V CC TotalP diss = 2 × P diss1 = ---------------------- P out – 2P out ( W ) π RL The maximum die temperature allowable for the TS4998 is 150°C. In case of overheating, a thermal shutdown protection set to 150°C, puts the TS4998 in standby until the temperature of the die is reduced by about 5°C. To calculate the maximum ambient temperature Tamb allowable, you need to know: ● the power supply voltage value, VCC ● the load resistor value, RL ● the package type, RTHJA Example: VCC=5V, RL=8Ω, RTHJAQFN16=85°C/W (with 2-layer PCB with vias). Using the power dissipation formula given in Equation 5, the maximum dissipated power per channel is: Pdissmax = 633mW And the power dissipated by both channels is: Total Pdissmax = 2 x Pdissmax = 1266mW Tamb is calculated as follows: Equation 7 T amb = 150° C – R TJHA × TotalPdissmax Therefore, the maximum allowable value for Tamb is: Tamb = 150 - 85 x 2 x 1.266=42.4°C If a 4-layer PCB with vias is used, RTHJAQFN16 = 45°C/W and the maximum allowable value for Tamb in this case is: Tamb = 150 - 45 x 2 x 1.266 = 93°C 24/33 TS4998 4.7 Application information Footprint recommendation Footprint soldering pad dimensions are given in Figure 72 on page 30. As discussed in the previous section, the maximum allowable value for ambient temperature is dependent on the thermal resistance junction to ambient RTHJA. Decreasing the RTHJA value causes better power dissipation. Based on best thermal performance, it is recommended to use 4-layer PCBs with vias to effectively remove heat from the device. It is also recommended to use vias for 2-layer PCBs to connect the package exposed pad to heatsink cooper areas placed on another layer. For proper thermal conductivity, the vias must be plated through and solder-filled. Typical thermal vias have the following dimensions: 1.2mm pitch, 0.3mm diameter. Figure 65. QFN16 footprint recommendation 4.8 Decoupling of the circuit Two capacitors are needed to correctly bypass the TS4998: a power supply bypass capacitor CS and a bias voltage bypass capacitor Cb. The CS capacitor has particular influence on the THD+N at high frequencies (above 7kHz) and an indirect influence on power supply disturbances. With a value for CS of 1µF, one can expect THD+N performance similar to that shown in the datasheet. In the high frequency region, if CS is lower than 1µF, then THD+N increases and disturbances on the power supply rail are less filtered. On the other hand, if CS is greater than 1µF, then those disturbances on the power supply rail are more filtered. The Cb capacitor has an influence on the THD+N at lower frequencies, but also impacts PSRR performance (with grounded input and in the lower frequency region). 25/33 Application information 4.9 TS4998 Standby control and wake-up time tWU The TS4998 has two dedicated standby pins (STBYL, STBYR). These pins allow to put each channel in standby mode or active mode independently. The amplifier is designed to reach close to zero pop when switching from one mode to the other. When both channels are in standby (VSTBYL = VSTBYR = GND), the circuit is in shutdown mode. When at least one of the two standby pins is released to put the device ON, the bypass capacitor Cb starts to be charged. Because Cb is directly linked to the bias of the amplifier, the bias will not work properly until the Cb voltage is correct. The time to reach this voltage is called the wake-up time or tWU and is specified in Table 4 on page 5, with Cb=1µF. During the wake-up phase, the TS4998 gain is close to zero. After the wake-up time, the gain is released and set to its nominal value. If Cb has a value different from 1µF, then refer to the graph in Figure 66 to establish the corresponding wake-up time. When a channel is set to standby mode, the outputs of this channel are in high impedance state. Figure 66. Typical startup time vs. bypass capacitor 100 Tamb=25 ° C Startup Time (ms) 90 Vcc=2.7V 80 Vcc=3.3V 70 60 Vcc=5V 50 40 30 0.0 4.10 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 Bypass Capacitor Cb (μ F) 4.0 4.5 Shutdown time When the standby command is activated (both channels put into standby mode), the time required to put the two output stages of each channel in high impedance and the internal circuitry in shutdown mode is a few microseconds. Note: In shutdown mode when both channels are in standby, the Bypass pin and LIN+, LIN-, RIN+, RIN- pins are shorted to ground by internal switches. This allows a quick discharge of Cb and CIN capacitors. 4.11 Pop performance Due to its fully differential structure, the pop performance of the TS4998 is close to perfect. However, due to mismatching between internal resistors Rfeed, external resistors RIN and 26/33 TS4998 Application information external input capacitors CIN, some noise might remain at startup. To eliminate the effect of mismatched components, the TS4998 includes pop reduction circuitry. With this circuitry, the TS4998 is close to zero pop for all possible common applications. In addition, when the TS4998 is in standby mode, due to the high impedance output stage in this configuration, no pop is heard. Single-ended input configuration It is possible to use the TS4998 in a single-ended input configuration. However, input coupling capacitors are needed in this configuration. The schematic diagram in Figure 67 shows an example of this configuration for a gain of +6dB set by the input resistors. Figure 67.

The PSRR is the power supply rejection ratio. The PSRR of a device is the ratio between a power supply disturbance and the result on the output. In other words, the PSRR is the ability of a device to minimize the impact of power supply disturbance to the output. How is the PSRR measured? The PSRR is measured as shown in Figure 68. Figure 68.
