Application Information
EXPOSED-DAP PACKAGE PCB MOUNTING CONSIDERATION
The LM4808’s exposed-dap(die attach paddle)package (LD)provides a low thermal resistance between the die and the PCB to which the part is mounted and soldered.This allows rapid heat transfer from the die to the surrounding PCB copper traces,ground plane,and surrounding air. The LD package should have its DAP soldered to a copper pad on the PCB.The DAP’s PCB copper pad may be con-nected to a large plane of continuous unbroken copper.This plane forms a thermal mass,heat sink,and radiation area. However,since the LM4808is designed for headphone ap-plications,connecting a copper plane to the DAP’s PCB copper pad is not required.The LM4808’s Power Dissipation vs Output Power Curve in the Typical Performance Char-acteristics shows that the maximum power dissipated is just 45mW per amplifier with a5V power supply and a32?load. Further detailed and specific information concerning PCB layout,fabrication,and mounting an LD(LLP)package is available from National Semiconductor’s Package Engineer-ing Group under application note AN1187.
POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation is a major concern when using any power amplifier and must be thoroughly understood to ensure a successful design.Equation1states the maximum power dissipation point for a single-ended amplifier operating at a given supply voltage and driving a specified output load.
P DMAX=(V DD)2/(2π2R L)(1)
Since the LM4808has two operational amplifiers in one package,the maximum internal power dissipation point is twice that of the number which results from Equation1.Even with the large internal power dissipation,the LM4808does not require heat sinking over a large range of ambient tem-perature.From Equation1,assuming a5V power supply and a32?load,the maximum power dissipation point is40mW per amplifier.Thus the maximum package dissipation point is80mW.The maximum power dissipation point obtained must not be greater than the power dissipation that results from Equation2:
P DMAX=(T JMAX?T A)/θJA(2)
For package MUA08A,θJA=210?C/W.T JMAX=150?C for the LM4808.Depending on the ambient temperature,T A,of the system surroundings,Equation2can be used to find the maximum internal power dissipation supported by the IC packaging.If the result of Equation1is greater than that of Equation2,then either the supply voltage must be de-creased,the load impedance increased or T A reduced.For the typical application of a5V power supply,with a32?load, the maximum ambient temperature possible without violating the maximum junction temperature is approximately133.2?C provided that device operation is around the maximum power dissipation point.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 Perfor-mance Characteristics curves for power dissipation infor-mation for lower output powers.
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 a5V regulator typically
use a10μF in parallel with a0.1μF filter capacitors to stabi-
lize the regulator’s output,reduce noise on the supply line,
and improve the supply’s transient response.However,their
presence does not eliminate the need for a local0.1μF
supply bypass capacitor,C S,connected between the
LM4808’s supply pins and ground.Keep the length of leads
and traces that connect capacitors between the LM4808’s
power supply pin and ground as short as possible.Connect-
ing a1.0μF capacitor,C B,between the IN A(+)/IN B(+)node
and ground improves the internal bias voltage’s stability and
improves the amplifier’s PSRR.The PSRR improvements
increase as the bypass pin capacitor value increases.Too
large,however,increases the amplifier’s turn-on time.The
selection of bypass capacitor values,especially C B,depends
on desired PSRR requirements,click and pop performance
(as explained in the section,Selecting Proper External
Components),system cost,and size constraints.
SELECTING PROPER EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Optimizing the LM4808’s performance requires properly se-
lecting external components.Though the LM4808operates
well when using external components with wide tolerances,
best performance is achieved by optimizing component val-
ues.
The LM4808is unity-gain stable,giving a designer maximum
design flexibility.The gain should be set to no more than a
given application requires.This allows the amplifier to
achieve minimum THD+N and maximum signal-to-noise ra-
tio.These parameters are compromised as the closed-loop
gain increases.However,low gain demands input signals
with greater voltage swings to achieve maximum output
power.Fortunately,many signal sources such as audio
CODECs have outputs of1V RMS(2.83V P-P).Please refer to
the Audio Power Amplifier Design section for more infor-
mation on selecting the proper gain.
Input and Output Capacitor Value Selection
Amplifying the lowest audio frequencies requires high value
input and output coupling capacitors(C I and C O in Figure1).
A high value capacitor can be expensive and may compro-
mise 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
below150Hz.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,C i has an effect on
the LM4808’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.
As shown in Figure1,the input resistor,R I and the input
capacitor,C I,produce a?3dB high pass filter cutoff fre-
quency that is found using Equation(3).In addition,the
output load R L,and the output capacitor C O,produce a-3db
high pass filter cutoff frequency defined by Equation(4).
f I-3db=1/2πR I C I(3)
f O-3db=1/2πR L C O(4)

Application Information(Continued)
Also,careful consideration must be taken in selecting a
certain type of capacitor to be used in the system.Different
types of capacitors(tantalum,electrolytic,ceramic)have
unique performance characteristics and may affect overall
system performance.
Bypass Capacitor Value
Besides minimizing the input capacitor size,careful consid-
eration should be paid to the value of the bypass capacitor,
C B.Since C B determines how fast the LM4808settles to
quiescent operation,its value is critical when minimizing
turn-on pops.The slower the LM4808’s outputs ramp to their
quiescent DC voltage(nominally1/2V DD),the smaller the
turn-on pop.Choosing C B equal to 1.0μF or larger,will
minimize turn-on pops.As discussed above,choosing C i no
larger than necessary for the desired bandwith helps mini-
mize clicks and pops.
AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER DESIGN
Design a Dual70mW/32?Audio Amplifier
Given:
Power Output70mW
Load Impedance32?
Input Level1Vrms(max)
Input Impedance20k?
Bandwidth100Hz–20kHz±0.50dB
The design begins by specifying the minimum supply voltage
necessary to obtain the specified output power.One way to
find the minimum supply voltage is to use the Output Power
vs Supply Voltage curve in the Typical Performance Char-
acteristics section.Another way,using Equation(5),is to
calculate the peak output voltage necessary to achieve the
desired output power for a given load impedance.To ac-
count for the amplifier’s dropout voltage,two additional volt-
ages,based on the Dropout Voltage vs Supply Voltage in the
Typical Performance Characteristics curves,must be
added to the result obtained by Equation(5).For a
single-ended application,the result is Equation(6).
(5)
V DD≥(2V OPEAK+(V OD
TOP
+V OD
BOT
))(6)
The Output Power vs Supply Voltage graph for a32?load
indicates a minimum supply voltage of4.8V.This is easily
met by the commonly used5V supply voltage.The additional
voltage creates the benefit of headroom,allowing the
LM4808to produce peak output power in excess of70mW
without clipping or other audible distortion.The choice of
supply voltage must also not create a situation that violates
maximum power dissipation as explained above in the
Power Dissipation section.Remember that the maximum
power dissipation point from Equation(1)must be multiplied
by two since there are two independent amplifiers inside the
package.Once the power dissipation equations have been
addressed,the required gain can be determined from Equa-
tion(7).
(7)
Thus,a minimum gain of1.497allows the LM4808to reach
full output swing and maintain low noise and THD+N perfro-
mance.For this example,let A V=1.5.
The amplifiers overall gain is set using the input(R i)and
feedback(R f)resistors.With the desired input impedance
set at20k?,the feedback resistor is found using Equation
(8).
A V=R f/R i(8)
The value of R f is30k?.
The last step in this design is setting the amplifier’s?3db
frequency bandwidth.To achieve the desired±0.25dB pass
band magnitude variation limit,the low frequency response
must extend to at lease one?fifth the lower bandwidth limit
and the high frequency response must extend to at least five
times the upper bandwidth limit.The gain variation for both
response limits is0.17dB,well within the±0.25dB desired
limit.The results are an
f L=100Hz/5=20Hz(9)
and a
f H=20kHz*5=100kHz(10)
As stated in the External Components section,both R i in
conjunction with C i,and C o with R L,create first order high-
pass filters.Thus to obtain the desired low frequency re-
sponse of100Hz within±0.5dB,both poles must be taken
into consideration.The combination of two single order filters
at the same frequency forms a second order response.This
results in a signal which is down0.34dB at five times away
from the single order filter?3dB point.Thus,a frequency of
20Hz is used in the following equations to ensure that the
response is better than0.5dB down at100Hz.
C i≥1/(2π*20k?*20Hz)=0.397μF;use0.39μF.
C o≥1/(2π*32?*20Hz)=249μF;use330μF.
The high frequency pole is determined by the product of the
desired high frequency pole,f H,and the closed-loop gain,
A V.With a closed-loop gain of1.5and f H=100kHz,the
resulting GBWP=150kHz which is much smaller than the
LM4808’s GBWP of900kHz.This figure displays that if a
designer has a need to design an amplifier with a higher
gain,the LM4808can still be used without running into
bandwidth limitations.
