description
The TP A302 is a stereo audio power amplifier capable of delivering 250 mW of continuous average power into
an 8- load at less than 0.06% THD+N from a 5-V power supply or up to 300 mW at 1% THD+N. The TP A302
has high current outputs for driving small unpowered speakers at 8 or headphones at 32 . For headphone
applications driving 32- loads, the TPA302 delivers 60 mW of continuous average power at less than 0.06%
THD+N. The amplifier features a shutdown function for power-sensitive applications as well as internal thermal
and short-circuit protection. The amplifier is available in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package that reduces board space
and facilitates automated assembly.

gain setting resistors, RF and RI
The gain for the TPA302 is set by resistors RF and RI according to equation 1.

Ǔ
Given that the TPA302 is a MOS amplifier, the input impedance is very high, consequently input leakage
currents are not generally a concern although noise in the circuit increases as the value of RF increases. In
addition, a certain range of RF values is required for proper start-up operation of the amplifier. Taken together
it is recommended that the effective impedance seen by the inverting node of the amplifier be set between 5
k and 20 k. The effective impedance is calculated in equation 2.

As an example, consider an input resistance of 10 k and a feedback resistor of 50 k. The gain of the amplifier
would be –5 and the effective impedance at the inverting terminal would be 8.3 k, which is within the
recommended range.
For high performance applications metal film resistors are recommended because they tend to have lower noise
levels than carbon resistors. For values of RF above 50 k the amplifier tends to become unstable due to a pole
formed from RF and the inherent input capacitance of the MOS input structure. For this reason, a small
compensation capacitor of approximately 5 pF should be placed in parallel with RF. This, in effect, creates a
low-pass filter network with the cutoff frequency defined in equation 3.

For example if RF is 100 k and CF is 5 pF then fc(lowpass) is 318 kHz, which is well outside of the audio range.
input capacitor, CI
In the typical application an input capacitor, CI, is required to allow the amplifier to bias the input signal to the
proper dc level for optimum operation. In this case, CI and RI form a high-pass filter with the corner frequency
determined in equation 4.

The value of CI is important to consider as it directly affects the bass (low frequency) performance of the circuit.

Equation 4 is reconfigured as equation 5.

RIfc(highpass)
In this example, CI is 0.40 µF so one would likely choose a value in the range of 0.47 µF to 1 µF. A further
consideration for this capacitor is the leakage path from the input source through the input network (RI, CI) and
the feedback resistor (RF) to the load. This leakage current creates a dc offset voltage at the input to the amplifier
that reduces useful headroom, especially in high-gain applications (>10). For this reason a low-leakage
tantalum or ceramic capacitor is the best choice. When polarized capacitors are used, the positive side of the
capacitor should face the amplifier input in most applications as the dc level there is held at VDD/2, which is likely
higher than the source dc level. Please note that it is important to confirm the capacitor polarity in the application.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
power supply decoupling, CS
The TPA302 is a high-performance CMOS audio amplifier that requires adequate power supply decoupling to
ensure that the output total harmonic distortion (THD) is as low as possible. Power supply decoupling also
prevents oscillations for long lead lengths between the amplifier and the speaker. The optimum decoupling is
achieved by using two capacitors of different types that target different types of noise on the power supply leads.
For higher frequency transients, spikes, or digital hash on the line, a good low equivalent-series-resistance
(ESR) ceramic capacitor, typically 0.1 µF, placed as close as possible to the device VDD lead, works best. For
filtering lower-frequency noise signals, a larger aluminum electrolytic capacitor of 10 µF or greater placed near
the power amplifier is recommended.
midrail bypass capacitor, CB
The midrail bypass capacitor, CB, serves several important functions. During startup or recovery from shutdown
mode, CB determines the rate at which the amplifier starts up. This helps to push the start-up pop noise into
the subaudible range (so low it can not be heard). The second function is to reduce noise produced by the power
supply caused by coupling into the output drive signal. This noise is from the midrail generation circuit internal
to the amplifier. The capacitor is fed from a 25-k source inside the amplifier. To keep the start-up pop as low
as possible, the relationship shown in equation 6 should be maintained.

As an example, consider a circuit where CB is 0.1 µF, CI is 0.22 µF and RI is 10 k. Inserting these values into
the equation 9 results in: 400 454 which satisfies the rule. Bypass capacitor, CB, values of 0.1 µF to 1 µF
ceramic or tantalum low-ESR capacitors are recommended for the best THD and noise performance.
output coupling capacitor, CC
In the typical single-supply single-ended (SE) configuration, an output coupling capacitor (CC) is required to
block the dc bias at the output of the amplifier thus preventing dc currents in the load. As with the input coupling
capacitor, the output coupling capacitor and impedance of the load form a high-pass filter governed by
equation 7.

The main disadvantage, from a performance standpoint, is that the load impedances are typically small, which
drives the low-frequency corner higher . Large values of C C are required to pass low frequencies into the load.
Consider the example where a CC of 68 µF is chosen and loads vary from 8 , 32, and 47 k. Table 1
summarizes the frequency response characteristics of each configuration.

As Table 1 indicates, most of the bass response is attenuated into 8- loads while headphone response is
adequate and drive into line level inputs (a home stereo for example) is very good.
The output coupling capacitor required in single-supply SE mode also places additional constraints on the
selection of other components in the amplifier circuit. The rules described earlier still hold with the addition of
the following relationship:

shutdown mode
The TPA302 employs a shutdown mode of operation designed to reduce quiescent supply current, IDD(q), to
the absolute minimum level during periods of nonuse for battery-power conservation. For example, during
device sleep modes or when other audio-drive currents are used (i.e., headphone mode), the speaker drive is
not required. The SHUTDOWN input terminal should be held low during normal operation when the amplifier
is in use. Pulling SHUTDOWN high causes the outputs to mute and the amplifier to enter a low-current state,
IDD < 1 µA. SHUTDOWN should never be left unconnected because amplifier operation would be unpredictable.
using low-ESR capacitors
Low-ESR capacitors are recommended throughout this applications section. A real capacitor can be modeled
simply as a resistor in series with an ideal capacitor. The voltage drop across this resistor minimizes the
beneficial effects of the capacitor in the circuit. The lower the equivalent value of this resistance the more the
real capacitor behaves like an ideal capacitor.

thermal considerations
A prime consideration when designing an audio amplifier circuit is internal power dissipation in the device. The
curve in Figure 43 provides an easy way to determine what output power can be expected out of the TPA302
for a given system ambient temperature in designs using 5-V supplies. This curve assumes no forced airflow
or additional heat sinking.

5-V versus 3.3-V operation
The TPA302 was designed for operation over a supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V. This data sheet provides full
specifications for 5-V and 3.3-V operation since are considered to be the two most common standard voltages.
There are no special considerations for 3.3-V versus 5-V operation as far as supply bypassing, gain setting, or
stability. Supply current is slightly reduced from 3.5 mA (typical) to 2.5 mA (typical). The most important
consideration is that of output power. Each amplifier in the TPA302 can produce a maximum voltage swing of
VDD – 1 V. This means, for 3.3-V operation, clipping starts to occur when VO(PP) = 2.3 V as opposed when
VO(PP) = 4 V while operating at 5 V. The reduced voltage swing subsequently reduces maximum output power
into the load before distortion begins to become significant.
