8. Functional description

8.1 General

The TDA8920B is a two channel audio power ampliﬁer using class-D technology.

The audio input signal is converted into a digital pulse width modulated signal via an

analog input stage and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) modulator. To enable the output

power transistors to be driven, this digital PWM signal is applied to a control and

handshake block and driver circuits for both the high side and low side. In this way a level

shift is performed from the low power digital PWM signal (at logic levels) to a high power

PWM signal which switches between the main supply lines.

A 2nd-order low-pass ﬁlter converts the PWM signal to an analog audio signal across the

loudspeakers.

The TDA8920B one-chip class-D ampliﬁer contains high power D-MOS switches, drivers,

timing and handshaking between the power switches and some control logic. For

protection a temperature sensor and a maximum current detector are built-in.

The two audio channels of the TDA8920B contain two PWM modulators, two analog

feedback loops and two differential input stages. It also contains circuits common to both

channels such as the oscillator, all reference sources, the mode functionality and a digital

timing manager.

The TDA8920B contains two independent ampliﬁer channels with high output power, high

efﬁciency, low distortion and a low quiescent current. The ampliﬁer channels can be

connected in the following conﬁgurations:

•Mono Bridge-Tied Load (BTL) ampliﬁer

•Stereo Single-Ended (SE) ampliﬁers

Philips Semiconductors TDA8920B

2× 100 W class-D power ampliﬁer

The ampliﬁer system can be switched to one of three operating modes by pin MODE:

•Standby mode; with a very low supply current

•Mute mode; the ampliﬁers are operational; but the audio signal at the output is

suppressed by disabling the VI-converter input stages

•Operating mode; the ampliﬁers are fully operational with output signal

To ensure pop noise-free start-up, the DC output offset voltage is applied gradually to the

output at a level between Mute mode and Operating mode levels. The bias current setting

of the VI converters is related to the voltage on the MODE pin; in Mute mode the bias

current setting of the VI converters is zero (VI converters disabled) and in Operating mode

the bias current is at maximum. The time constant required to apply the DC output offset

voltage gradually between Mute and Operating mode levels can be generated via an

RC-network on the MODE pin. An example of a switching circuit for driving pin MODE is

illustrated in Figure 4. If the capacitor C is left out of the application the voltage on the

MODE pin will be applied with a much smaller time-constant, which might result in audible

pop noises during start-up (depending on DC output offset voltage and loudspeaker

used).

In order to fully charge the coupling capacitors at the inputs, the ampliﬁer will remain

automatically in the Mute mode before switching to the Operating mode. A complete

overview of the start-up timing is given in Figure 5.

Upper diagram: When switching from standby to mute, there is a delay of 100 ms before the

output starts switching. The audio signal is available after Vmode has been set to operating, but

not earlier than 150 ms after switching to mute. For pop noise-free start-up it is recommended

that the time constant applied to the MODE pin is at least 350 ms for the transition between

mute and operating.

Lower diagram: When switching directly from standby to operating, there is a ﬁrst delay of

100 ms before the outputs starts switching. The audio signal is available after a second delay

of 50 ms. For pop noise-free start-up it is recommended that the time constant applied to the

MODE pin is at least 500 ms for the transition between standby and operating.

8.2 Pulse width modulation frequency

The output signal of the ampliﬁer is a PWM signal with a carrier frequency of

approximately 317 kHz. Using a 2nd-order LC demodulation ﬁlter in the application results

in an analog audio signal across the loudspeaker. This switching frequency is ﬁxed by an

external resistor ROSC connected between pin OSC and VSSA. An optimal setting for the

carrier frequency is between 300 kHz and 350 kHz.

Using an external resistor of 30 kΩ on the OSC pin, the carrier frequency is set to

317 kHz.

If two or more class-D ampliﬁers are used in the same audio application, it is advisable to

have all devices operating at the same switching frequency by using an external clock

circuit.

8.3 Protections

The following protections are included in TDA8920B:

•OverTemperature Protection (OTP)

•OverCurrent Protection (OCP)

•Window Protection (WP)

•Supply voltage protections:

–UnderVoltage Protection (UVP)

–OverVoltage Protection (OVP)

–UnBalance Protection (UBP)

The reaction of the device to the different fault conditions differs per protection.

8.3.1 OverTemperature Protection (OTP)

If the junction temperature Tj> 150 °C, then the power stage will shut-down immediately.

The power stage will start switching again if the temperature drops to approximately

130 °C, thus there is a hysteresis of approximately 20 °C.

8.3.2 OverCurrent Protection (OCP)

When the loudspeaker terminals are short-circuited or if one of the demodulated outputs

of the ampliﬁer is short-circuited to one of the supply lines, this will be detected by the

OverCurrent Protection (OCP). If the output current exceeds the maximum output current

of 8 A, this current will be limited by the ampliﬁer to 8 A while the ampliﬁer outputs remain

switching (the ampliﬁer is NOT shut-down completely).

The ampliﬁer can distinguish between an impedance drop of the loudspeaker and a

low-ohmic short across the load. In the TDA8920B this impedance threshold (Zth)

depends on the supply voltage used.

When a short is made across the load causing the impedance to drop below the threshold

level (< Zth) then the ampliﬁer is switched off completely and after a time of 100 ms it will

try to restart again. If the short circuit condition is still present after this time this cycle will

be repeated. The average dissipation will be low because of this low duty cycle.

Product data sheet Rev. 02 — 07 November 2005 9 of 34

Philips Semiconductors TDA8920B

2× 100 W class-D power ampliﬁer

In case of an impedance drop (e.g. due to dynamic behavior of the loudspeaker) the same

protection will be activated; the maximum output current is again limited to 8 A, but the

ampliﬁer will NOT switch-off completely (thus preventing audio holes from occurring).

Result will be a clipping output signal without any artefacts.

See also Section 13.6 for more information on this maximum output current limiting

feature.

8.3.3 Window Protection (WP)

During the start-up sequence, when pin MODE is switched from standby to mute, the

conditions at the output terminals of the power stage are checked. In the event of a

short-circuit at one of the output terminals to VDD or VSS the start-up procedure is

interrupted and the system waits for open-circuit outputs. Because the test is done before

enabling the power stages, no large currents will ﬂow in the event of a short-circuit. This

system is called Window Protection (WP) and protects for short-circuits at both sides of

the output ﬁlter to both supply lines. When there is a short-circuit from the power PWM

output of the power stage to one of the supply lines (before the demodulation ﬁlter) it will

also be detected by the start-up safety test. Practical use of this test feature can be found

in detection of short-circuits on the printed-circuit board.

Remark: This test is operational during (every) start-up sequence at a transition between

Standby and Mute mode. However when the ampliﬁer is completely shut-down due to

activation of the OverCurrent Protection (OCP) because a short to one of the supply lines

occurred, then during restart (after 100 ms) the window protection will be activated. As a

result the ampliﬁer will not start-up until the short to the supply line is removed.

2× 100 W class-D power ampliﬁer

8.3.4 Supply voltage protections

If the supply voltage drops below ±12.5 V, the UnderVoltage Protection (UVP) circuit is

activated and the system will shut-down correctly. If the internal clock is used, this

switch-off will be silent and without pop noise. When the supply voltage rises above the

threshold level, the system is restarted again after 100 ms. If the supply voltage exceeds

±33 V the OverVoltage Protection (OVP) circuit is activated and the power stages will

shut-down. It is re-enabled as soon as the supply voltage drops below the threshold level.

So in this case no timer of 100 ms is started.

An additional UnBalance Protection (UBP) circuit compares the positive analog (VDDA)

and the negative analog (VSSA) supply voltages and is triggered if the voltage difference

between them exceeds a certain level. This level depends on the sum of both supply

voltages. An expression for the unbalanced threshold level is as follows:

Vth(ub) ≈0.15 ×(VDDA +V

SSA).

When the supply voltage difference drops below the threshold level, the system is

restarted again after 100 ms.

Example: With a symmetrical supply of ±30 V, the protection circuit will be triggered if the

unbalance exceeds approximately 9 V; see also Section 13.7.

In Table 4 an overview is given of all protections and the effect on the output signal.

[1] Hysteresis of 20 °C will inﬂuence restart timing depending on heatsink size.

[2] Only complete shut-down of ampliﬁer if short-circuit impedance is below threshold of 1 Ω. In all other cases

current limiting: resulting in clipping output signal.

[3] Fault condition detected during (every) transition between standby-to-mute and during restart after

activation of OCP (short to one of the supply lines).

8.4 Differential audio inputs

For a high common mode rejection ratio and a maximum of ﬂexibility in the application, the

audio inputs are fully differential. By connecting the inputs anti-parallel the phase of one of

the channels can be inverted, so that a load can be connected between the two output

ﬁlters. In this case the system operates as a mono BTL ampliﬁer and with the same

loudspeaker impedance an approximately four times higher output power can be

obtained.

The input conﬁguration for a mono BTL application is illustrated in Figure 6.

In the stereo single-ended conﬁguration it is also recommended to connect the two

differential inputs in anti-phase. This has advantages for the current handling of the power

supply at low signal frequencies.

13.2 MODE pin

For pop noise-free start-up an RC time-constant must be applied on the MODE pin. The

bias-current setting of the VI-converter input is directly related to the voltage on the MODE

pin. In turn the bias-current setting of the VI converters is directly related to the DC output

offset voltage. Thus a slow dV/dt on the MODE pin results in a slow dV/dt for the DC

output offset voltage, resulting in pop noise-free start-up. A time-constant of 500 ms is

sufﬁcient to guarantee pop noise-free start-up (see also Figure 4,5 and 7).

13.3 Output power estimation

The achievable output powers in several applications (SE and BTL) can be estimated

using the following expressions:

SE:

(1)

Maximum current (internally limited to 8 A):

(2)

BTL:

(3)

Maximum current (internally limited to 8 A):

(4)

Variables:

RL= load impedance

fosc = oscillator frequency

tmin = minimum pulse width (typically 150 ns)

VP= single-sided supply voltage (so, if supply is ±30 V symmetrical, then VP=30V)

Po(1%) = output power just at clipping

Po(10%) = output power at THD = 10 %

Po(10%) = 1.24 ×Po(1%).

13.4 External clock

Philips Semiconductors TDA8920B

2× 100 W class-D power ampliﬁer

If two or more class-D ampliﬁers are used in the same audio application, it is strongly

recommended that all devices run at the same switching frequency. This can be realized

by connecting all OSC pins together and feed them from an external central oscillator.

Using an external oscillator it is necessary to force pin OSC to a DC-level above SGND for

switching from the internal to an external oscillator. In this case the internal oscillator is

disabled and the PWM modulator will be switched on the external frequency. The

frequency range of the external oscillator must be in the range as speciﬁed in the

switching characteristics; see Section 12.1.

In an application circuit:

•Internal oscillator: ROSC connected between pin OSC and VSSA

•External oscillator: connect the oscillator signal between pins OSC and SGND; ROSC

and COSC removed

13.5 Heatsink requirements

In some applications it may be necessary to connect an external heatsink to the

TDA8920B. Limiting factor is the 150 °C maximum junction temperature Tj(max) which

cannot be exceeded. The expression below shows the relationship between the maximum

allowable power dissipation and the total thermal resistance from junction to ambient:

(5)

Pdiss is determined by the efﬁciency (η) of the TDA8920B. The efﬁciency measured in the

TDA8920B as a function of output power is given in Figure 21. The power dissipation can

be derived as a function of output power (see Figure 20).

The derating curves (given for several values of Rth(j-a)) are illustrated in Figure 8.

A maximum junction temperature Tj= 150 °C is taken into account. From Figure 8 the

maximum allowable power dissipation for a given heatsink size can be derived or the

required heatsink size can be determined at a required dissipation level.

2× 100 W class-D power ampliﬁer

13.6 Output current limiting

To guarantee the robustness of the class-D ampliﬁer the maximum output current which

can be delivered by the output stage is limited. An advanced OverCurrent Protection

(OCP) is included for each output power switch.

When the current ﬂowing through any of the power switches exceeds the deﬁned internal

threshold of 8 A (e.g. in case of a short-circuit to the supply lines or a short-circuit across

the load) the maximum output current of the ampliﬁer will be regulated to 8 A.

The TDA8920B ampliﬁer can distinguish between a low-ohmic short circuit condition and

other overcurrent conditions like dynamic impedance drops of the loudspeakers used. The

impedance threshold (Zth) depends on the supply voltage used.

Depending on the impedance of the short circuit the ampliﬁer will react as follows:

1. Short-circuit impedance > Zth:

the maximum output current of the ampliﬁer is regulated to 8 A, but the ampliﬁer will

not shut-down its PWM outputs. Effectively this results in a clipping output signal

across the load (behavior is very similar to voltage clipping).

2. Short-circuit impedance < Zth:

the ampliﬁer will limit the maximum output current to 8 A and at the same time the

capacitor on the PROT pin is discharged. When the voltage across this capacitor

drops below an internal threshold voltage the ampliﬁer will shut-down completely and

an internal timer will be started.

(1) Rth(j-a) = 5 K/W.

(2) Rth(j-a) = 10 K/W.

(3) Rth(j-a) = 15 K/W.

(4) Rth(j-a) = 20 K/W.

(5) Rth(j-a) = 35 K/W.

Philips Semiconductors TDA8920B

2× 100 W class-D power ampliﬁer

A typical value for the capacitor on the PROT pin is 220 pF. After a ﬁxed time of

100 ms the ampliﬁer is switched on again. If the requested output current is still too

high the ampliﬁer will switch-off again. Thus the ampliﬁer will try to switch to the

Operating mode every 100 ms. The average dissipation will be low in this situation

because of this low duty cycle. If the overcurrent condition is removed the ampliﬁer will

remain in Operating mode once restarted.

In this way the TDA8920B ampliﬁer is fully robust against short circuit conditions while at

the same time so-called audio holes as a result of loudspeaker impedance drops are

eliminated.

13.7 Pumping effects

In a typical stereo half-bridge SE application the TDA8920B class-D ampliﬁer is supplied

by a symmetrical voltage (e.g VDD = +27 V and VSS =−27 V). When the ampliﬁer is used

in a SE conﬁguration, a so-called ‘pumping effect’ can occur. During one switching

interval, energy is taken from one supply (e.g. VDD), while a part of that energy is

delivered back to the other supply line (e.g. VSS) and visa versa. When the voltage supply

source cannot sink energy, the voltage across the output capacitors of that voltage supply

source will increase: the supply voltage is pumped to higher levels. The voltage increase

caused by the pumping effect depends on:

•Speaker impedance

•Supply voltage

•Audio signal frequency

•Value of decoupling capacitors on supply lines

•Source and sink currents of other channels

The pumping effect should not cause a malfunction of either the audio ampliﬁer and/or the

voltage supply source. For instance, this malfunction can be caused by triggering of the

undervoltage or overvoltage protection or unbalance protection of the ampliﬁer.

Best remedy for pumping effects is to use the TDA8920B in a mono full-bridge application

or in case of stereo half-bridge application adapt the power supply (e.g. increase supply

decoupling capacitors).

13.8 Application schematic

Notes for the application schematic:

•A solid ground plane around the switching ampliﬁer is necessary to prevent emission

•100 nF capacitors must be placed as close as possible to the power supply pins of the

TDA8920BTH

•The internal heat spreader of the TDA8920BTH is internally connected to VSS

•The external heatsink must be connected to the ground plane

•Use a thermal conductive electrically non-conductive Sil-Pad between the backside of

the TDA8920BTH and a small external heatsink

•The differential inputs enable the best system level audio performance with

unbalanced signal sources. In case of hum due to ﬂoating inputs, connect the

shielding or source ground to the ampliﬁer ground. Jumpers J1 and J2 are open on

set level and are closed on the stand-alone demo board

•Minimum total required capacitance per power supply line is 3300 µF

16. Soldering

16.1 Introduction

This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology. A more in-depth account of

soldering ICs can be found in our

Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages

(document order number 9398 652 90011).

There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often

preferred when through-hole and surface mount components are mixed on one

printed-circuit board. Wave soldering can still be used for certain surface mount ICs, but it

is not suitable for ﬁne pitch SMDs. In these situations reﬂow soldering is recommended.

Driven by legislation and environmental forces the worldwide use of lead-free solder

pastes is increasing.

16.2 Through-hole mount packages

16.2.1 Soldering by dipping or by solder wave

Typical dwell time of the leads in the wave ranges from 3 seconds to 4 seconds at 250 °C

or 265 °C, depending on solder material applied, SnPb or Pb-free respectively.

The total contact time of successive solder waves must not exceed 5 seconds.

The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but the temperature of the plastic

body must not exceed the speciﬁed maximum storage temperature (Tstg(max)). If the

printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling may be necessary immediately

after soldering to keep the temperature within the permissible limit.

16.2.2 Manual soldering

Apply the soldering iron (24 V or less) to the lead(s) of the package, either below the

seating plane or not more than 2 mm above it. If the temperature of the soldering iron bit is

less than 300 °C it may remain in contact for up to 10 seconds. If the bit temperature is

between 300 °C and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.

16.3 Surface mount packages

16.3.1 Reﬂow soldering

Reﬂow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of ﬁne solder particles, ﬂux and

binding agent) to be applied to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or

pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.

Several methods exist for reﬂowing; for example, convection or convection/infrared

heating in a conveyor type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and cooling)

vary between 100 seconds and 200 seconds depending on heating method.

Typical reﬂow peak temperatures range from 215 °Cto270°C depending on solder paste

material. The top-surface temperature of the packages should preferably be kept:

•below 225 °C (SnPb process) or below 245 °C (Pb-free process)

–for all BGA, HTSSON..T and SSOP..T packages

Product data sheet Rev. 02 — 07 November 2005 30 of 34

Philips Semiconductors TDA8920B

2× 100 W class-D power ampliﬁer

–for packages with a thickness ≥2.5 mm

–for packages with a thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume ≥350 mm3 so called

thick/large packages.

•below 240 °C (SnPb process) or below 260 °C (Pb-free process) for packages with a

thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume < 350 mm3 so called small/thin packages.

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on packing, must be respected at all times.

16.3.2 Wave soldering

Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended for surface mount devices

(SMDs) or printed-circuit boards with a high component density, as solder bridging and

non-wetting can present major problems.

To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering method was speciﬁcally

developed.

If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be observed for optimal results:

•Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a turbulent wave with high upward

pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave.

•For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e):

–larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis is preferred to be

parallel to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board;

–smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis must be parallel to the

transport direction of the printed-circuit board.

The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the downstream end.

•For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must be placed at a 45° angle to

the transport direction of the printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate

solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.

During placement and before soldering, the package must be ﬁxed with a droplet of

adhesive. The adhesive can be applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe

dispensing. The package can be soldered after the adhesive is cured.

Typical dwell time of the leads in the wave ranges from 3 seconds to 4 seconds at 250 °C

or 265 °C, depending on solder material applied, SnPb or Pb-free respectively.

A mildly-activated ﬂux will eliminate the need for removal of corrosive residues in most

applications.

16.3.3 Manual soldering

Fix the component by ﬁrst soldering two diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage

(24 V or less) soldering iron applied to the ﬂat part of the lead. Contact time must be

limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C.

When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in one operation within

2 seconds to 5 seconds between 270 °C and 320 °C.

16.4 Package related soldering information

[1] For more detailed information on the BGA packages refer to the

(LF)BGA Application Note

(AN01026); order a copy from your Philips

Semiconductors sales ofﬁce.

[2] All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the maximum temperature (with

respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or external package cracks may occur due to vaporization of

the moisture in them (the so called popcorn effect). For details, refer to the Drypack information in the

Data Handbook IC26; Integrated

Circuit Packages; Section: Packing Methods

[3] For SDIP packages, the longitudinal axis must be parallel to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board.

[4] Hot bar soldering or manual soldering is suitable for PMFP packages.

[5] These transparent plastic packages are extremely sensitive to reﬂow soldering conditions and must on no account be processed

through more than one soldering cycle or subjected to infrared reﬂow soldering with peak temperature exceeding 217 °C±10 °C

measured in the atmosphere of the reﬂow oven. The package body peak temperature must be kept as low as possible.

[6] These packages are not suitable for wave soldering. On versions with the heatsink on the bottom side, the solder cannot penetrate

between the printed-circuit board and the heatsink. On versions with the heatsink on the top side, the solder might be deposited on the

heatsink surface.

[7] If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave direction. The package footprint

must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.

[8] Wave soldering is suitable for LQFP, QFP and TQFP packages with a pitch (e) larger than 0.8 mm; it is deﬁnitely not suitable for

packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm.

[9] Wave soldering is suitable for SSOP, TSSOP, VSO and VSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.65 mm; it is deﬁnitely

not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.

[10] Image sensor packages in principle should not be soldered. They are mounted in sockets or delivered pre-mounted on ﬂex foil.

However, the image sensor package can be mounted by the client on a ﬂex foil by using a hot bar soldering process. The appropriate

soldering proﬁle can be provided on request.
