Ultra-low consumption in standby mode (10 nA)
62 dB PSRR at 217 Hz in grounded mode
Near-zero pop and click
Ultra-low distortion (0.1%)
Unity gain stable
Available in 9-bump flip-chip, miniSO-8 and
DFN8 packages

Description
The TS4990 is designed for demanding audio
applications such as mobile phones to reduce the
number of external components.
This audio power amplifier is capable of delivering
1.2 W of continuous RMS output power into an
8 Ω load at 5 V.
An externally controlled standby mode reduces
the supply current to less than 10 nA. It also
includes an internal thermal shutdown protection.
The unity-gain stable amplifier can be configured
by external gain setting resistors.

1. All voltage values are measured with respect to the ground pin.
2. The magnitude of the input signal must never exceed VCC + 0.3 V / GND - 0.3 V.
3. The device is protected in case of over temperature by a thermal shutdown active at 150° C.
4. Human body model: A 100 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor
between two pins of the device. This is done for all couples of connected pin combinations while the other pins are floating.
5. Machine model: A 200 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged directly between two pins of the
device with no external series resistor (internal resistor < 5 Ω). This is done for all couples of connected pin combinations
while the other pins are floating.

Rfeed Feed back resistor that sets the closed loop gain in conjunction with Rin.
CsSupply bypass capacitor that provides power supply filtering.
CbBypass pin capacitor that provides half supply filtering.
Cfeed
Low pass filter capacitor allowing to cut the high frequency (low pass filter cut-off
frequency 1/ (2 x Pi x Rfeed x Cfeed)).
AVClosed loop gain in BTL configuration = 2 x (Rfeed / Rin).
Exposed pad DFN8 exposed pad is electrically connected to pin 7. See DFN8 package

4 Application information
4.1 BTL configuration principle
The TS4990 is a monolithic power amplifier with a BTL output type. BTL (bridge tied load)
means that each end of the load is connected to two single-ended output amplifiers. Thus,
we have:
Single-ended output 1 = Vout1 = Vout (V)
Single-ended output 2 = Vout2 = -Vout (V)
and Vout1 - Vout2 = 2Vout (V)
The output power is:
For the same power supply voltage, the output power in BTL configuration is four times
higher than the output power in single-ended configuration.
4.2 Gain in a typical application
The typical application schematics are shown in Figure 1 on page 4.
In the flat region (no Cin effect), the output voltage of the first stage is (in Volts):
For the second stage: Vout2 = -Vout1 (V)
The differential output voltage is (in Volts):
The differential gain named gain (Gv) for more convenience is:
Vout2 is in phase with Vin and Vout1 is phased 180° with Vin. This means that the positive
terminal of the loudspeaker should be connected to Vout2 and the negative to Vout1.
4.3 Low and high frequency response
In the low frequency region, Cin starts to have an effect. Cin forms with Rin a high-pass filter
with a -3 dB cut-off frequency. FCL is in Hz.
In the high frequency region, you can limit the bandwidth by adding a capacitor (Cfeed) in
parallel with Rfeed. It forms a low-pass filter with a -3 dB cut-off frequency. FCH is in Hz.

4.4 Power dissipation and efficiency
Hypotheses:
Load voltage and current are sinusoidal (Vout and Iout).
Supply voltage is a pure DC source (VCC).
The load can be expressed as:

Therefore, the power dissipated by each amplifier is:
Pdiss = Psupply - Pout (W)
and the maximum value is obtained when:
and its value is:
Note: This maximum value is only dependent on power supply voltage and load values.
The efficiency is the ratio between the output power and the power supply:
The maximum theoretical value is reached when VPEAK = VCC, so:
4.5 Decoupling of the circuit
Two capacitors are needed to correctly bypass the TS4990: a power supply bypass
capacitor Cs and a bias voltage bypass capacitor Cb.
Cs has particular influence on the THD+N in the high frequency region (above 7 kHz) and
an indirect influence on power supply disturbances. With a value for Cs of 1 µF, you can
expect THD+N levels similar to those shown in the datasheet.
In the high frequency region, if Cs is lower than 1 µF, it increases THD+N and disturbances
on the power supply rail are less filtered.
On the other hand, if Cs is higher than 1 µF, those disturbances on the power supply rail are
more filtered.
Cb has an influence on THD+N at lower frequencies, but its function is critical to the final
result of PSRR (with input grounded and in the lower frequency region).
If Cb is lower than 1 µF, THD+N increases at lower frequencies and PSRR worsens.
If Cb is higher than 1 µF, the benefit on THD+N at lower frequencies is small, but the benefit
to PSRR is substantial.
Note that Cin has a non-negligible effect on PSRR at lower frequencies. The lower the value
of Cin, the higher the PSRR.

4.6 Wake-up time (tWU)
When the standby is released to put the device ON, the bypass capacitor Cb is not charged
immediately. Because Cb is directly linked to the bias of the amplifier, the bias will not work
properly until the Cb voltage is correct. The time to reach this voltage is called wake-up time
or tWU and specified in the electrical characteristics tables with Cb=1µF.
If Cb has a value other than 1 µF, refer to the graph in Figure 61 to establish the wake-up
time.
Figure 61. Typical wake-up time vs. Cb
Due to process tolerances, the maximum value of wake-up time is shown in Figure 62.
Figure 62. Maximum wake-up time vs. Cb
Note: The bypass capacitor Cb also has a typical tolerance of +/-20%. To calculate the wake-up
time with this tolerance, refer to the graph above (considering for example for Cb=1 µF in the
range of 0.8 µF
Cb
1.2 µF).
4.7 Standby time
When the standby command is set, the time required to put the two output stages in high
impedance and the internal circuitry in standby mode is a few microseconds. In standby

mode, the bypass pin and Vin pin are short-circuited to ground by internal switches. This
allows a quick discharge of Cb and Cin capacitors.
4.8 Pop performance
Pop performance is intimately linked with the size of the input capacitor Cin and the bias
voltage bypass capacitor Cb.
The size of Cin is dependent on the lower cut-off frequency and PSRR values requested.
The size of Cb is dependent on THD+N and PSRR values requested at lower frequencies.
Moreover, Cb determines the speed with which the amplifier turns ON. In order to reach
near zero pop and click, the equivalent input constant time,
τin = (Rin + 2kΩ)xC
in (s) with Rin 5kΩ
must not reach the τin maximum value as indicated in Figure 63 below.
Figure 63. τin max. versus bypass capacitor
By following the previous rules, the TS4990 can reach near zero pop and click even with
high gains such as 20 dB.
Example:
With Rin =22kΩ and a 20 Hz, -3 dB low cut-off frequency, Cin =361nF. So, C
in =390nF
with standard value which gives a lower cut-off frequency equal to 18.5 Hz. In this case,
(Rin +2kΩ)xC
in = 9.36ms. By referring to the previous graph, if Cb= 1 µF and VCC =5V,
we read 20 ms max. This value is twice as high as our current value, thus we can state that
pop and click will be reduced to its lowest value.
Minimizing both Cin and the gain benefits both the pop phenomenon, and the cost and size
of the application.

4.9 Application example: differential input, BTL power amplifier
The schematics in Figure 64 show how to configure the TS4990 to work in differential input
mode. The gain of the amplifier is:
In order to reach the best performance of the differential function, R1 and R2 should be
matched at 1% max.

The input capacitor Cin can be calculated by the following formula using the -3 dB lower
frequency required. (FL is the lower frequency required).

Figure 67. Package mechanical data for 9-bump flip-chip package
Figure 68. Daisy chain mechanical data
The daisy chain sample features two-by-two pin connections. The schematics in Figure 68
illustrate the way pins connect to each other. This sample is used to test continuity on your
board. Your PCB needs to be designed the opposite way, so that pins that are unconnected
in the daisy chain sample, are connected on your PCB. If you do this, by simply connecting
an Ohmmeter between pin A1 and pin A3, the soldering process continuity can be tested.

5.3 DFN8 package information
Note: DFN8 exposed pad (E2 x D2) is connected to pin number 7. For enhanced thermal
performance, the exposed pad must be soldered to a copper area on the PCB, acting as a
heatsink. This copper area can be electrically connected to pin7 or left floating.
