TA8215HQ/LQ TOSHIBA Bipolar Linear Integrated Circuit Silicon Monolithic TA8215HQ,TA8215LQ 18W BTL x 2CH Audio Power Amplifier The thermal resistance j-T of TA8215HQ and TA8215LQ package designed for low thermal resistance, has a high efficiency of heat radiation. The temperature rise of chip can be reduced, and the influence from the degradation of the features due to the temperature rise at the high output can also be reduced. This stereo audio power IC, designed for car audio use, has two built-in channels to reduce the characteristic difference between L and R channels. In addition, the functions of stand-by and muting, and a variety of protection circuits are involved.

Voltage gain adjustment This IC has the amplifier construction as shown in Fig.1. The Pre-Amp Amp1 is provided to the primary stage, and the input voltage is amplified by the Flat Amps, Amp3 and Amp4 of each channel through the phase Amp. (Amp2) . Since the input offset is prevented by Pre-Amp when VCC is set to on, this circuit can remarkably reduce the pop noise. 2 2006-04-28 TA8215HQ/LQ The total closed loop gain GV of this IC can be obtained by expression below when the closed loop voltage gain of Amp1 is GV1. GV1 = 20og R1 + (Rf + R2) (dB) R f + R2 ..... (1) The closed loop voltage gain of power Amp, Amp3 and Amp4 is fixed at GV3 GV4 = 20dB. Therefore, the total closed loop voltage gain GV is obtained through BTL connection by the expression below. GV = GV1 + GV3 + 6 (dB) ..... (2) For example, when Rf = 0, GV is obtained by the expressions (1) and (2) as shown below. GV 24 + 20 + 6 = 50dB The voltage gain is reduced when Rf is increased. (Fig.2) With the voltage gain reduced, since (1) the oscillation stability is reduced, and (2) the pop noise changes when VCC is set to on, refer to the items 3 and 4. 2. Stand-by SW function By means of controlling pin (4) (stand-by terminal) to high and low, the power suply can be set to on and off. The threshold voltage of pin (4) is set at about 3V (typ.), and the power supply current is about 1A (typ.) at the stand-by state. (4) pin control voltage : V (SB) Stand-by Power On Off 0~2 Off On 3~VCC V (SB) (V) (4) ~Advantage of stand-by SW~ (1) Since VCC can directly be controlled to on, off by the microcomuter, the switching relay can be omitted. (2) Since the control current is microscopic, the switching relay of small current capacity is satisfactory for switching. 3 2006-04-28 TA8215HQ/LQ 3. Preventive measure against oscillation For preventing the oscillation, it is advisable to use C4, the condenser of polyester film having small characteristic fluctuation of the temperture and the frequency. The resistance R to be series applied to C4 is effective for phase correction of high frequency, and improves the oscillation allowance. Since the oscillation allowance is varied according to the causes described below, perform the temperature test to check the oscillation allowance. (1) Voltage gain to be used (GV setting) (2) Capacity value of condenser (3) Kind of condenser (4) Layout of printed board In case of its use with the voltage gain GV reduced or with the feedback amount increased, care must be taken because the phase-inversion is caused by the high frequency resulting in making the oscillation liable generated. 4. Input offset prevention circuit at VCCON Having Pre-Amp (Amp1) mounted on the primary stage, this IC contains the circuit for making the Amp1 input voltage and the NF terminal voltage equipotential. Therefore, the offset voltage produced at the input stage is suppressed to prevent the pop noise at VCCON. The capacity values of the input and NF condense (C1 and C2) shall be set according to the gain to be used. (Reference) (A) at GV = 50dB (Rf = 0) : C1 = 4.7F, C2 = 47F (B) at GV = 40dB (Rf = 470) : C1 = 3.3F, C2 = 33F 4 2006-04-28 TA8215HQ/LQ 5. Muting function Through setting pin (1) (mute terminal) at about 1V or less, muting becomes possible. The interval circuit of IC is shown in Fig.4. When pin (1) is set to low, Q1 and Q2 are turned on, the charge of the ripple condenser is discharged and the bias is cut. The mute amount of 60dB or over can be obtained. Since this muting function rapidly discharges the charge of the ripple filter capacitor of pin (8), the pop noise is generated by the DC fluctuation of the bias section. Therefore, this muting function is not appropriate to the audio muting but is effective in muting at VCCon. 6.

The IC will fully break down when used under conditions that exceed its absolute maximum ratings, when the wiring is routed improperly or when an abnormal pulse noise occurs from the wiring or load, causing a large current to continuously flow and the breakdown can lead smoke or ignition. To minimize the effects of the flow of a large current in case of breakdown, appropriate settings, such as fuse capacity, fusing time and insertion circuit location, are required. * If your design includes an inductive load such as a motor coil, incorporate a protection circuit into the design to prevent device malfunction or breakdown caused by the current resulting from the inrush current at power ON or the negative current resulting from the back electromotive force at power OFF. For details on how to connect a protection circuit such as a current limiting resistor or back electromotive force adsorption diode, refer to individual IC datasheets or the IC databook. IC breakdown may cause injury, smoke or ignition. * Use a stable power supply with ICs with built-in protection functions. If the power supply is unstable, the protection function may not operate, causing IC breakdown. IC breakdown may cause injury, smoke or ignition. * Carefully select external components (such as inputs and negative feedback capacitors) and load components (such as speakers), for example, power amp and regulator. If there is a large amount of leakage current such as input or negative feedback condenser, the IC output DC voltage will increase. If this output voltage is connected to a speaker with low input withstand voltage, overcurrent or IC failure can cause smoke or ignition. (The over current can cause smoke or ignition from the IC itself.) In particular, please pay attention when using a Bridge Tied Load (BTL) connection type IC that inputs output DC voltage to a speaker directly. * Over current Protection Circuit Over current protection circuits (referred to as current limiter circuits) do not necessarily protect ICs under all circumstances. If the Over current protection circuits operate against the over current, clear the over current status immediately. Depending on the method of use and usage conditions, such as exceeding absolute maximum ratings can cause the over current protection circuit to not operate properly or IC breakdown before operation. In addition, depending on the method of use and usage conditions, if over current continues to flow for a long time after operation, the IC may generate heat resulting in breakdown. * Thermal Shutdown Circuit Thermal shutdown circuits do not necessarily protect ICs under all circumstances. If the Thermal shutdown circuits operate against the over temperature, clear the heat generation status immediately. Depending on the method of use and usage conditions, such as exceeding absolute maximum ratings can cause the thermal shutdown circuit to not operate properly or IC breakdown before operation. * Heat Radiation Design When using an IC with large current flow such as power amp, regulator or driver, please design the device so that heat is appropriately radiated, not to exceed the specified junction temperature (Tj) at any time and condition. These ICs generate heat even during normal use. An inadequate IC heat radiation design can lead to decrease in IC life, deterioration of IC characteristics or IC breakdown. In addition, please design the device taking into considerate the effect of IC heat radiation with peripheral components. * Installation to Heat Sink Please install the power IC to the heat sink not to apply excessive mechanical stress to the IC. Excessive mechanical stress can lead to package cracks, resulting in a reduction in reliability or breakdown of internal IC chip. In addition, depending on the IC, the use of silicon rubber may be prohibited. Check whether the use of silicon rubber is prohibited for the IC you intend to use, or not. For details of power IC heat radiation design and heat sink installation, refer to individual technical datasheets or IC databooks. 13 2006-04-28 TA8215HQ/LQ RESTRICTIONS ON PRODUCT USE 060116EBF * The information contained herein is subject to change without notice. 021023_D * TOSHIBA is continually working to improve the quality and reliability of its products.
