LM4985 Stereo 135mW Low Noise Headphone Amplifier with Selectable Capacitively Coupled or Output Capacitor-less (OCL) Output and Digitally Controlled (I2C) Volume Control General Description Key Specifications (VDD = 3.6V) The LM4985 is a stereo audio power amplifier with internal digitally controlled volume control. This amplifier is capable of delivering 68mWRMS per channel into a 16 load or 38mWRMS per channel into a 32 load at 1% THD when powered by a 3.6V power supply and operating in the OCL mode. Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of external components. To that end, the LM4985 features two functions that optimize system cost and minimize PCB area: an integrated, digitally controlled (I2C bus) volume control and an operational mode that eliminates output signal coupling capacitors (OCL mode). Since the LM4985 does not require bootstrap capacitors, snubber networks, or output coupling capacitors, it is optimally suited for low-power, battery powered portable systems. For added design flexibility, the LM4985 can also be configured for single-ended capacitively coupled outputs. The LM4985 features a current shutdown mode for micropower dissipation and thermal shutdown protection. j PSRR: 217Hz and 1kHz Output Capacitor-less (OCL) fRIPPLE = 217Hz 77dB (typ) fRIPPLE = 1kHz 76dB (typ) Capacitor Coupled (C-CUPL) fRIPPLE = 217Hz 63dB (typ) fRIPPLE = 1kHz 62dB (typ) j Output Power per channel (fIN = 1kHz, THD+N = 1%), RL = 16,OCL VDD = 2.5V 31mW (typ) VDD = 3.6V 68mW (typ) VDD = 5.0V 135mW (typ) j THD+N (f = 1kHz) RLOAD = 16, OCL, POUT = 60mW RLOAD = 32, OCL, POUT = 33mW j Shutdown Current 0.60 0.031 0.1A (typ) Features n OCL or capacitively coupled outputs (patent pending) n I2C Digitally Controlled Volume Control n Available in space-saving 0.4mm lead-pitch micro SMD package n Volume control range: -76dB to +18dB n Ultra low current shutdown mode n 2.3V - 5.5V operation n Ultra low noise Applications n n n n Mobile Phones PDAs Portable electronics devices MP3 Players Boomer (R) is a registered trademark of National Semiconductor Corporation.

Two of the amplifiers which amplify signals applied to their inputs, have internally configurable gain. The remaining third amplifier provides both half-supply output bias and AC ground return. PDMAX = (TJMAX - TA) / JA For package TMD12AAA, JA = 190C/W. TJMAX = 150C for the LM4985. Depending on the ambient temperature, TA, of the system surroundings, Equation 3 can be used to find the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC packaging. If the result of Equation 2 is greater than that of Equation 3, then either the supply voltage must be decreased, the load impedance increased or TA reduced. Loads, such as a headphone speaker, are connected between OUT1 and CNTGND or OUT2 and CNTGND. This configuration does not require an output coupling capacitor. The classical single-ended amplifier configuration, where one side of the load is connected to ground, requires large, expensive output coupling capacitors. For a typical application using a 3.6V power supply, with a 32 load, the maximum ambient temperature possible without violating the maximum junction temperature is approximately 144C provided that device operation is around the maximum power dissipation point. Thus, for typical applications, power dissipation is not an issue. Power dissipation is a function of output power and thus, if typical operation is not around the maximum power dissipation point, the ambient temperature may be increased accordingly. Refer to the Typical Performance Characteristics curves for power dissipation information for lower output powers. A configuration such as the one used in the LM4985 has a major advantage over single supply, single-ended amplifiers. Since the outputs OUT1, OUT2, and CNTGND are all biased at 1/2 VDD, no net DC voltage exists across each load. This eliminates the need for output coupling capacitors which are required in a single-supply, single-ended amplifier configuration. Without output coupling capacitors in a typical singlesupply, single-ended amplifier, the bias voltage is placed across the load resulting in both increased internal IC power dissipation and possible loudspeaker damage. The LM4985 eliminates these output coupling capacitors when operating in Output Capacitor-less (OCL) mode. Unless shorted to ground, VoC is internally configured to apply a 1/2 VDD bias voltage to a stereo headphone jack's sleeve. This voltage matches the bias voltage present on VoA and VoB outputs that drive the headphones. The headphones operate in a manner similar to a bridge-tied load (BTL). Because the same DC voltage is applied to both headphone speaker terminals this results in no net DC current flow through the speaker. AC current flows through a headphone speaker as an audio signal's output amplitude increases on the speaker's terminal. The headphone jack's sleeve is not connected to circuit ground when used in OCL mode. Using the headphone output jack as a line-level output will place the LM4985's 1/2 VDD bias voltage on a plug's sleeve connection. This presents no difficulty when the external equipment uses capacitively coupled inputs. For the very small minority of equipment that is DC coupled, the LM4985 monitors the current supplied by the amplifier that drives the headphone jack's sleeve. If this current exceeds 500mAPEAK, the amplifier is shutdown, protecting the LM4985 and the external equipment. POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING As with any amplifier, proper supply bypassing is important for low noise performance and high power supply rejection. The capacitor location on the power supply pins should be as close to the device as possible. Typical applications employ a regulator with 10F 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 LM4985. A bypass capacitor value in the range of 0.1F to 1F is recommended for CS. MICRO POWER SHUTDOWN The LM4985's micropower shutdown is activated or deactivated through its I2C digital interface . Please refer to Table 1 for the I2C Address, Register Select, and Mode Control registers. Each amplifier within the LM4985 can be shutdown individually. Please observe the following protocol when placing an individual amplifier channel in shutdown while the other channel remains active. The protocol requires activating both channels' shutdown simultaneously, then deactivating the shutdown of the channel whose output is desired (or leaving the desire channel in shutdown mode). Also, when operating in the C-CUPL mode, a short delay time is required between activating one channel after placing both channels in shutdown. If the user finds that both channels activate when only one was chosen, increase the delay. POWER DISSIPATION Power dissipation is a major concern when using any power amplifier. When operating in capacitor-coupled mode (CCUPL), Equation 1 states the maximum power dissipation point for a single-ended amplifier operating at a given supply voltage and driving a specified output load. PDMAX = 2(VDD) 2 / (22RL) SELECTION OF INPUT CAPACITOR SIZE Amplifying the lowest audio frequencies requires a high value input coupling capacitor, Ci. A high value capacitor can be expensive and may compromise space efficiency in portable designs. In many cases, however, the headphones used in portable systems have little ability to reproduce signals below 60Hz. Applications using headphones with this limited frequency response reap little improvement by using a high value input capacitor. In addition to system cost and size, turn on time is affected by the size of the input coupling capacitor Ci. A larger input (1) When operating in the OCL mode, the LM4985's three operational amplifiers produce a maximum power dissipation given in Equation 2: PDMAX = [2(VDD) www.national.com 2 / (22RL)] + [VDD2 / (4RL)] (3) (2) 24 to 32. The ratio of this voltage divider will determine the magnitude of any residual signal present at the CNT_GND pin. It is this residual signal that leads to channel-to-channel separation (crosstalk) degradation. (Continued) coupling capacitor requires more charge to reach its quiescent DC voltage. This charge comes from the output via the feedback Thus, by minimizing the capacitor size based on necessary low frequency response, turn-on time can be minimized. A small value of Ci (in the range of 0.22F to 0.68F), is recommended. For example, for a 60dB channel-to-channel separation while driving a 16 load, the resistance between the LM4985's CNT_GND pin and the load must be less than 16m. This is achieved by ensuring that the trace that connects the CNT_GND pin to the headphone jack sleeve should be as short and massive as possible, given the physical constraints of any specific printed circuit board layout and design. MAXIMIZING OCL MODE CHANNEL-to-CHANNEL SEPARATION The OCL mode AC ground return (CNT_GND pin) is shared by both amplifiers. As such, any resistance between the CNT_GND pin and the load will create a voltage divider with respect to the load resistance. In a typical circuit, the amount of CNT_GND resistance can be very small, but still significant. It is significant because of the relatively low load impedances for which the LM4985 was designed to drive: 16 DEMONSTRATION BOARD AND PCB LAYOUT Information concerning PCB layout considerations and demonstration board use and performance is found in Application Note AN-1452. 25 www.national.com LM4985 Application Information LM4985 I2C Control Register Table 1 shows the actions that are implemented by manipulating the bits within the two internal I2C control registers.
