LM48821 LM48821 Direct Coupled, Ultra Low Noise, 52mW Differential Input Stereo HeadphoneAmplifier with I2C Volume Control Literature Number: SNAS354 LM48821 Direct Coupled, Ultra Low Noise, 52mW Differential Input Stereo Headphone Amplifier with I2C Volume Control General Description Key Specifications With its directly-coupled output technology, the LM48821 is a variable gain audio power amplifier capable of delivering 52mWRMS per channel into a 16 single-ended load with less than 1% THD+N from a 3V power supply. The I2C volume control has a range of -76dB to 18dB. The LM48821's Tru-GND technology utilizes advanced charge pump technology to generate the LM48821's negative supply voltage. This eliminates the need for output-coupling capacitors typically used with single-ended loads. Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of external components. The LM48821 does not require output coupling capacitors or bootstrap capacitors, and therefore is ideally suited for mobile phone and other low voltage applications where minimal power consumption is a primary requirement. The LM48821 incorporates selectable low-power consumption shutdown and channel select modes. The LM48821 contains advanced output transient suppression circuitry that eliminates noises which would otherwise occur during turn-on and turn-off transitions.

This allows the LM48821 to reference its amplifier outputs to ground instead of a half-supply voltage, like traditional capacitivel-coupled headphone amplifiers. Because there is no DC bias voltage associated with either stereo output, the large DC blocking capacitors (typically 220F) are not necessary. The coupling capacitors are replaced by two, small ceramic charge pump capacitors, saving board space and cost. Eliminating the output coupling capacitors also improves low frequency response. In traditional headphone amplifiers, the headphone impedance and the output capacitor form a high pass filter that not only blocks the DC component of the output, but also attenuates low frequencies, impacting the bass response. Because the LM48821 does not require the output coupling capacitors, the low frequency response of the device is not degraded. In addition to eliminating the output coupling capacitors, the ground referenced output nearly doubles the output voltage swing and available dynamic range of the LM48821 when compared to a traditional capacitively-coupled output headphone amplifier operating from the same supply voltage. I2C INTERFACE POWER SUPPLY PIN (I2CVDD) The LM48821's I2C interface is powered up through the I2CVDD pin. The LM48821's I2C interface operates at a voltage level set by the I2CVDD pin. This voltage can be independent from the main power supply pin (VDD). This is ideal whenever logic levels for the I2C interface are dictated by a microcontroller or microprocessor that is operating at a lower supply voltage than the main battery of a portable system. Since the LM48821 has two power amplifiers in one package, the maximum internal power dissipation point is twice that of the number which results from Equation 1. Even with large internal power dissipation, the LM48821 does not require heat sinking over a large range of ambient temperatures. The maximum power dissipation point obtained must not be greater than the power dissipation that results from Equation 2: OUTPUT TRANSIENT ELIMINATED The LM48821 contains advanced circuitry that virtually eliminates output transients ('clicks' and 'pops'). This circuitry attenuates output transients when the supply voltage is first applied or when the part resumes operation after using the shutdown mode. POWER DISSIPATION Power dissipation is a major concern when using any power amplifier and must be thoroughly understood to ensure a successful design. 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 = (2VDD)2 / (22RL) PDMAX = (TJMAX - TA) / (JA) POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING As with any power amplifier, proper supply bypassing is critical for low noise performance and high power supply rejection. Applications that employ a 3.3V voltage regulator typically use a 10F in parallel with a 0.1F filter capacitors to stabilize the regulator's output, reduce noise on the regulated supply lines, and improve the regulator's transient response. However, their presence does not eliminate the need for a local 1.0F tantalum bypass capacitance connected between the LM48821's supply pins and ground. Keep the length of leads and traces that connect capacitors between the LM48821's power supply pins and ground as short as possible. (1) (2) For the micro SMD package, JA = 105C/W. TJMAX = 150C for the LM48821. Depending on the ambient temperature, TA, of the system surroundings, Equation 2 can be used to find the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC packaging. If the result of Equation 1 is greater than that of Equation 2, then either the supply voltage must be decreased, the load impedance increased or TA reduced. 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. 17 www.national.com LM48821 I2C COMPATIBLE INTERFACE The LM48821 uses a serial data bus that conforms to the I2C protocol. Controlling the chip's functions is accomplished with two wires: serial clock (SCL) and serial data (SDA). The clock line is uni-directional. The data line is bi-directional (opencollector). The maximum clock frequency specified by the I2C standard is 400kHz. In this discussion, the master is the controlling microcontroller and the slave is the LM48821. The bus format for the I2C interface is shown in Figure 3. The bus format diagram is broken up into six major sections: The Start Signal, the I2C Address, an Acknowledge bit, the I2C data, second Acknowledge bit, and the Stop Signal. The start signal is generated by lowering the data signal while the clock signal is high. The start signal will alert all devices attached to the I2C bus to check the incoming address against their own address. The 8-bit chip address is sent next, most significant bit first. The data is latched in on the rising edge of the clock. Each address bit must be stable while the clock level is high. After the last bit of the address bit is sent, the master releases the data line high (through a pull-up resistor). Then the master sends an acknowledge clock pulse. If the LM48821 has received the address correctly, then it holds the data line low during the clock pulse. If the data line is not held low during the acknowledge clock pulse, then the master should abort the rest of the data transfer to the LM48821. The 8 bits of data are sent next, most significant bit first. Each data bit should be valid while the clock level is stable high. After the data byte is sent, the master must check for another acknowledge to see if the LM48821 received the data. If the master has more data bytes to send to the LM48821, then the master can repeat the previous two steps until all data bytes have been sent. The stop signal ends the transfer. To signal stop , the data signal goes high while the clock signal is high. The data line should be held high when not in use. The LM48821's I2C address is shown in Table 1. The I2C data register and its control bit names are shown in Table 2. The data values for the volume control are shown in Table 3. LM48821 supply voltage, a local 4.7F power supply bypass capacitor should be connected as physically closed as possible to the PVDD pin. SELECTING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS Optimizing the LM48821's performance requires properly selecting external components. Though the LM48821 operates well when using external components with wide tolerances, best performance is achieved by optimizing component values. Input Capacitor Value Selection Amplifying the lowest audio frequencies requires high value input coupling capacitors (the 0.47F capacitors in Figure 1). A high value capacitor can be expensive and may compromise space efficiency in portable designs. In many cases, however, the speakers used in portable systems, whether internal or external, have little ability to reproduce signals below 150Hz. Applications using speakers with this limited frequency response reap little improvement by using high value input and output capacitors. Besides affecting system cost and size, the input coupling capacitor value has an effect on the LM48821's click and pop performance. The magnitude of the pop is directly proportional to the input capacitor's size. Thus, pops can be minimized by selecting an input capacitor value that is no higher than necessary to meet the desired -3dB frequency. The LM48821's nominal input resistance at full volume is 10k and a minimum of 5k. This input resistance and the input coupling capacitor value produce a -3dB high pass filter cutoff frequency that is found using Equation 3. Charge Pump Capacitor Selection Use low ESR (equivalent series resistance) (<100m) ceramic capacitors with an X7R dielectric for best performance. Low ESR capacitors keep the charge pump output impedance to a minimum, extending the headroom on the negative supply. Higher ESR capacitors result in reduced output power from the audio amplifiers. Charge pump load regulation and output impedance are affected by the value of the flying capacitor (connected between the CCP- and CCP+ pins). A larger valued C1 (up to 4.7F) improves load regulation and minimizes charge pump output resistance. Beyond 4.7F, the switchon-resistance dominates the output impedance. The output ripple is affected by the value and ESR of the output capacitor (connected between the VSS and PGND pins). Larger capacitors reduce output ripple on the negative power supply. Lower ESR capacitors minimize the output ripple and reduce the output impedance of the charge pump. The LM48821 charge pump design is optimized for 4.7F, low ESR, ceramic, flying, and output capacitors. f-3dB = 1/2RiCi Power Supply Bypass Capacitor For good THD+N and low noise performance and to ensure correct power-on behavior at the maximum allowed power www.national.com 18 (3) LM48821 Revision History Rev Date Description 1.0 06/06/07 Initial release. 19 www.national.com LM48821 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 16-Bump micro SMD Order Number LM48821TL NS Package Number TLA1611A X1 = 1.970 0.03 X2 = 1.970 0.03 X3 = 0.6 0.075 www.national.com 20 LM48821 Notes 21 www.national.com LM48821 Direct Coupled, Ultra Low Noise, 52mW Differential Input Stereo Headphone Amplifier with I2C Volume Control Notes THE CONTENTS OF THIS DOCUMENT ARE PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION ("NATIONAL") PRODUCTS.

Reproduction of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements. TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in such safety-critical applications. TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use. TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
