Mute Function (pin 22)
The audio mute function is enabled by setting pin 22 Low. R1 and C4 determine the time constant of the
mute function. The time constant affects pop noise generated when power or the mute function is turned on
or off; thus, it must be determined on a per-application basis. (Refer to Figures 3 and 4.)
The value of the external pull-up resistor is determined, based on pop noise value.
For example:
when the control voltage is changed from 5 V to 3.3 V, the pull-up resistor should be: 3.3V/5V 47 k
when the control voltage is changed from 5 V to 8.5 V, the pull-up resistor should be: 8.5V/5V 47 k

Auto Muting Functions
The TB2941HQ has two automatic mute function.
a) Low Vcc Mute
b) Stand-by Off Mute.
9.1
Low Vcc Mute
When the supply voltage became lower than 5.5V (Typ.), The TB2941HQ operates the mute circuit
automatically. This function prevents the large audible transient noise which is generated by low Vcc
9.2
Standby-Off Mute
The TB2941HQ operates the mute circuit during the standby-off transition. When the ripple voltage
reached Vcc/5, the standby-off mute is terminated. The external mute has to be ON till the internal
mute-OFF.

11. Output DC Offset Detection
This function detects the offset voltage between OUT(+) and OUT(-). The detection result is gotten by pin1
or pin25. When the offset voltage appeared by the external parts accident, for example the leak of coupling
capacitor, this function can contribute to a part of safety system to prevent the speaker damage.

The result of detection does not judge the abnormal offset or not. This function detects only the offset
voltage which is decided by specification.
11.1
Offset Circuit
a) Regarding offset detector of Pin25.
The result of output offset voltage detection of Pin25 is gotten by the internal high-side switch which
synchronizes with offset voltage. This function is enabled by mute terminal voltage more than 7V.
b) Regarding offset detector of Pin1
The result of output offset voltage detection of Pin1 is gotten by the internal open collector transistor
which synchronizes with offset voltage. This function is always available. If this pin does not be used,
connect to GND or open.
Figure 8 shows the detected result and audio output waveform.
Rs1 generates the positive offset voltage.
Rs2 generates the negative offset voltage.

12. Low voltage operation
The TB2941HQ's amplifier circuit is made in MPC/DFA technology. This technology prevents the audible
pop noise and sound cutting due to low Vcc voltage.
12.1
Description
When the headroom voltage is suppressed by the low Vcc, the TB2941HQ switches outputs voltage from
Vcc/2 to Vcc/4 and reduces the audible pop noise and the sound cutting.
The TB2941HQ can reduce the distortion which is generated by low Vcc, because this amplifier circuit
keeps the voltage gain of BLT outputs. In other words, if one side output of BTL has the voltage margin, its
output can make up for clipped waveform of other side output.

13. Protection Functions
This product has internal protection circuits such as thermal shut down, over-voltage, out to VCC, out to
GND, and out to out short circuit protections.
(1)
Thermal shut down
It operates when junction temperature exceeds 150°C (typ.).
When it operates, it is protected in the following order.
1.
2.
3.
An Attenuation of an output starts first and the amount of attenuation also increases according
to a temperature rising,
All outputs become in a mute state, when temperature continues rising in spite of output
attenuation.
Shutdown function starts, when a temperature rise continues though all outputs are in a mute
state.
In any case if temperature falls, it will return automatically.
(2)
Over-voltage
It operates when voltage exceeding operating range is supplied to VCC pin. If voltage falls, it will
return automatically. When it operates, all outputs bias and high-side switch are turned off and all
outputs are intercepted. Threshold voltage is 23 V (Typ.)
(3)
Short to VCC, Short to GND, Output to output short
It operates when each output pin is in irregular connection and the load line goes over the SOA of
power transistor (DMOS). When it operates, all outputs bias circuits are turned off and all outputs are
intercepted. If irregular connection is canceled, it will return automatically.

The absolute maximum ratings of a semiconductor device are a set of specified parameter values, which must not
be exceeded during operation, even for an instant.
If any of these rating would be exceeded during operation, the device electrical characteristics may be irreparably
altered and the reliability and lifetime of the device can no longer be guaranteed. Moreover, these operations with
exceeded ratings may cause break down, damage, and/or degradation to any other equipment. Applications using
the device should be designed such that each maximum rating will never be exceeded in any operating conditions.
Before using, creating, and/or producing designs, refer to and comply with the precautions and conditions set forth
in this document.

20. Attention in Use
Use an appropriate power supply fuse to ensure that a large current does not continuously flow in case of
over current and/or IC failure. 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.
