Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed
specifically to provide high quality output power with a
minimal amount of external components. Since the
LM4809 does not require bootstrap capacitors or
snubber networks, it is optimally suited for low-power
portable systems.
The unity-gain stable LM4809 can be configured by
external gain-setting resistors.
The LM4809 features an externally controlled, activelow, micropower consumption shutdown mode, as
well as an internal thermal shutdown protection
mechanism.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
MICRO-POWER SHUTDOWN
The voltage applied to the SHUTDOWN pin controls the LM4809's shutdown function. Activate micro-power
shutdown by applying a logic low voltage to the SHUTDOWN pin. The logic threshold is typically VDD/2. When
active, the LM4809's micro-power shutdown feature turns off the amplifier's bias circuitry, reducing the supply
current. The low 0.4µA typical shutdown current is achieved by applying a voltage that is as near as GND as
possible to the SHUTDOWN pin. A voltage that is above GND may increase the shutdown current.
There are a few ways to control the micro-power shutdown. These include using a single-pole, single-throw
switch, a microprocessor, or a microcontroller. When using a switch, connect an external 100kΩ pull-down
resistor between the SHUTDOWN pin and GND. Connect the switch between the SHUTDOWN pin and VDD.
Select normal amplifier operation by closing the switch. Opening the switch connects the SHUTDOWN pin to
GND through the pull-down resistor, activating micro-power shutdown. The switch and resistor ensure that the
SHUTDOWN pin will not float. This prevents unwanted state changes. In a system with a microprocessor or a
microcontroller, use a digital output to apply the control voltage to the SHUTDOWN pin. Driving the SHUTDOWN
pin with active circuitry eliminates the pull-down resistor.
EXPOSED-DAP PACKAGE PCB MOUNTING CONSIDERATION
The LM4809's exposed-Dap (die attach paddle) package (LD or LQ) 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 or LQ package should have its DAP soldered to a copper pad on the PCB. The DAP's PCB copper pad
may be connected to a large plane of continuous unbroken copper. This plane forms a thermal mass, heat sink,
and radiation area.
However, since the LM4809 is designed for headphone applications, connecting a copper plane to the DAP's
PCB copper pad is not required. Figure 34 in Typical Performance Characteristics shows that the maximum
power dissipated is just 45mW per amplifier with a 5V power supply and a 32Ω load.
Further detailed and specific information concerning PCB layout, fabrication, and mounting an NGL0008B or
NGP0008A package is available from Texas Instruments' Package Engineering 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. 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 = (VDD) 2 / (2π2RL)
(1)
Since the LM4809 has two operational amplifiers in one package, the maximum internal power dissipation point
is twice that of the number which results from Equation 1. Even with the large internal power dissipation, the
LM4809 does not require heat sinking over a large range of ambient temperature. From Equation 1, assuming a
5V power supply and a 32Ω load, the maximum power dissipation point is 40mW per amplifier. Thus the
maximum package dissipation point is 80mW. The maximum power dissipation point obtained must not be
greater than the power dissipation that results from Equation 2:
PDMAX = (TJMAX − TA) / θJA

SNAS126F – FEBRUARY 2001 – REVISED APRIL 2013
www.ti.com
For package MUA08A, θJA = 210°C/W. TJMAX = 150°C for the LM4809. 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. For the typical application of a
5V power supply, with a 32Ω load, the maximum ambient temperature possible without violating the maximum
junction temperature is approximately 133.2°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
Performance Characteristics curves for power dissipation information 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 a 5V regulator typically use a 10µF in parallel with a 0.1µF filter capacitors to
stabilize 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 local 1.0µF tantalum bypass capacitance connected
between the LM4809's supply pins and ground. Keep the length of leads and traces that connect capacitors
between the LM4809's power supply pin and ground as short as possible. Connecting a 4.7µF capacitor, CB,
between the BYPASS pin 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 CB, 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 LM4809's performance requires properly selecting external components. Though the LM4809
operates well when using external components with wide tolerances, best performance is achieved by optimizing
component values.
The LM4809 is 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-tonoise ratio. 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 of 1VRMS (2.83VP-P). Please refer to the Audio Power Amplifier Design
section for more information on selecting the proper gain.
Input and Output Capacitor Value Selection
Amplifying the lowest audio frequencies requires high value input and output coupling capacitors (CI and CO 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, Ci has an effect on the LM4809'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. Please
refer to the Optimizing Click and Pop Reduction Performance section for a more detailed discussion on click and
pop performance.
As shown in Figure 1, the input resistor, RI and the input capacitor, CI, produce a −3dB high pass filter cutoff
frequency that is found using Equation 3. In addition, the output load RL, and the output capacitor CO, produce a
-3db high pass filter cutoff frequency defined by Equation 4.

SNAS126F – FEBRUARY 2001 – REVISED APRIL 2013
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 Selection
Besides minimizing the input capacitor size, careful consideration should be paid to the value of CB, the capacitor
connected to the BYPASS pin. Since CB determines how fast the LM4809 settles to quiescent operation, its
value is critical when minimizing turn-on pops. The slower the LM4809's outputs ramp to their quiescent DC
voltage (nominally 1/2 VDD), the smaller the turn-on pop. Choosing CB equal to 4.7µF along with a small value of
Ci (in the range of 0.1µF to 0.47µF), produces a click-less and pop-less shutdown function. As discussed above,
choosing Ci no larger than necessary for the desired bandwith helps minimize clicks and pops.
OPTIMIZING CLICK AND POP REDUCTION PERFORMANCE
The LM4809 contains circuitry that minimizes turn-on and shutdown transients or “clicks and pop”. For this
discussion, turn-on refers to either applying the power supply voltage or when the shutdown mode is deactivated.
During turn-on, the LM4809's internal amplifiers are configured as unity gain buffers. An internal current source
charges up the capacitor on the BYPASS pin in a controlled, linear manner. The gain of the internal amplifiers
remains unity until the voltage on the BYPASS pin reaches 1/2 VDD . As soon as the voltage on the BYPASS pin
is stable, the device becomes fully operational. During device turn-on, a transient (pop) is created from a voltage
difference between the input and output of the amplifier as the voltage on the BYPASS pin reaches 1/2 VDD. For
this discussion, the input of the amplifier refers to the node between RI and CI. Ideally, the input and output track
the voltage applied to the BYPASS pin. During turn-on, the buffer-configured amplifier output charges the input
capacitor, CI, through the input resistor, RI. This input resistor delays the charging time of CI thereby causing the
voltage difference between the input and output that results in a transient (pop). Higher value capacitors need
more time to reach a quiescent DC voltage (usually 1/2 VDD) when charged with a fixed current. Decreasing the
value of CI and RI will minimize turn-on pops at the expense of the desired -3dB frequency.
Although the BYPASS pin current cannot be modified, changing the size of CB alters the device's turn-on time
and the magnitude of “clicks and pops”. Increasing the value of CB reduces the magnitude of turn-on pops.
However, this presents a tradeoff: as the size of CB increases, the turn-on time increases. There is a linear
relationship between the size of CB and the turn-on time. Here are some typical turn-on times for various values
of CB:
CB

In order eliminate “clicks and pops”, all capacitors must be discharged before turn-on. Rapidly switching VDD may
not allow the capacitors to fully discharge, which may cause “clicks and pops”. In a single-ended configuration,
the output is coupled to the load by CO. This capacitor usually has a high value. CO discharges through internal
20kΩ resistors. Depending on the size of CO, the discharge time constant can be relatively large. To reduce
transients in single-ended mode, an external 1kΩ–5kΩ resistor can be placed in parallel with the internal 20kΩ
resistor. The tradeoff for using this resistor is increased quiescent current.

AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER DESIGN
Design a Dual 70mW/32Ω Audio Amplifier
Given:
Power Output
70 mW
Load Impedance
32Ω
Input Level
1 Vrms (max)
Input Impedance
20kΩ
Bandwidth
100 Hz–20 kHz ± 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 Figure 28 in the Typical Performance Characteristics
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 account for the amplifier's dropout voltage, two additional voltages,
based on Figure 31 in Typical Performance Characteristics , must be added to the result obtained by
Equation 5. For a single-ended application, the result is Equation 6.
(5)
VDD ≥ (2VOPEAK + (VODTOP + VODBOT))
(6)
Figure 28 for a 32Ω load indicates a minimum supply voltage of 4.8V. This is easily met by the commonly used
5V supply voltage. The additional voltage creates the benefit of headroom, allowing the LM4809 to produce peak
output power in excess of 70mW 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 Equation 7.
(7)
Thus, a minimum gain of 1.497 allows the LM4809 to reach full output swing and maintain low noise and THD+N
perfromance. For this example, let AV=1.5.
The amplifiers overall gain is set using the input (Ri ) and feedback (Rf ) resistors. With the desired input
impedance set at 20kΩ, the feedback resistor is found using Equation 8.
AV = Rf/Ri
(8)
The value of Rf is 30kΩ.

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 is 0.17dB, well within the ±0.25dB desired limit. The results are an
fL = 100Hz/5 = 20Hz
(9)
and a
fH = 20kHz∗5 = 100kHz
(10)
As stated in the Selecting Proper External Components section, both Ri in conjunction with Ci, and Co with RL,
create first order highpass filters. Thus to obtain the desired low frequency response of 100Hz 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 down 0.34dB 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 than 0.5dB down at 100Hz.
Ci ≥ 1 / (2π * 20kΩ * 20Hz) = 0.397µF; use 0.39µF.
(11)
Co ≥ 1 / (2π * 32Ω * 20Hz) = 249µF; use 330µF.
(12)
The high frequency pole is determined by the product of the desired high frequency pole, fH, and the closed-loop
gain, AV. With a closed-loop gain of 1.5 and fH = 100kHz, the resulting GBWP = 150kHz which is much smaller
than the LM4809's GBWP of 900kHz. This figure displays that if a designer has a need to design an amplifier
with a higher gain, the LM4809 can still be used without running into bandwidth limitations.
