FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
•
The LM48824 is a Class G, ground-referenced stereo
headphone amplifier designed for portable devices.
The LM48824 features TI’s ground-referenced
architecture, which eliminates the large DC blocking
capacitors required by traditional headphone
amplifiers, saving board space and minimizing
system cost.

Class G Power Savings
Ground Referenced Headphone Outputs –
Eliminates Output Coupling Capacitors
Common-Mode Sense
I2C Volume and Mode Control
High Output Impedance in Shutdown
Differential Inputs
Advanced Click-and-Pop Suppression
Low Supply Current
Low THD Mode Option
The LM48824 takes advantage of TI’s patent-pending
Class G architecture offering power savings
compared to a traditional Class AB headphone
amplifier. Additionally, output noise is improved by
common-mode sensing that corrects for any
differences between the amplifier ground and the
potential at the headphone return terminal, minimizing
noise created by any ground mismatches.
APPLICATIONS
•
•
Mobile Phones, PDAs, MP3 Players
Portable Electronic Devices, Notebook PCs
A high output impedance mode allows the LM48824's
outputs to be driven by an external source without
degrading the signal. Other features include flexible
power supply requirements, differential inputs for
improved noise rejection, a low power (2.5μA)
shutdown mode, and a 32-step I2C volume control
with mute function.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
I2C COMPATIBLE INTERFACE
The LM48824 is controlled through an I2C compatible serial interface that consists of a serial data line (SDA) and
a serial clock (SCL). The clock line is uni-directional. The data line is bi-directional (open drain). The LM48824
and the master can communicate at clock rates up to 400kHz. Figure 29 shows the I2C interface timing diagram.
Data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of SCL. The LM48824 is a transmit/receive slaveonly device, reliant upon the master to generate the SCL signal. Each transmission sequence is framed by a
START condition and a STOP condition (Figure 30). Each data word, device address and data, transmitted over
the bus is 8 bits long and is always followed by an acknowledge pulse (Figure 31). The LM48824 device address
is 1100000.
I2C BUS FORMAT
The I2C bus format is shown in Figure 31. The START signal, the transition of SDA from HIGH to LOW while
SCL is HIGH, is generated, alerting all devices on the bus that a device address is being written to the bus.
The 7-bit device address is written to the bus, most significant bit (MSB) first, followed by the R/W bit (R/W = 0
indicates the master is writing to the LM48824, R/W = 1 indicates the master wants to read data from the
LM48824). Data is latched into the device on the rising clock edge. Each address bit must be stable while SCL is
HIGH. After the last address bit is transmitted, the master device releases SDA, during which time, an
acknowledge clock pulse is generated by the slave device. If the LM48824 receives the correct address, the
device pulls the SDA line low, generating an acknowledge bit (ACK).
Once the master device registers the ACK bit, the 8-bit register address word is sent. Each data bit should be
stable while SCL is HIGH. After the 8-bit register address is sent, the LM48824 sends another ACK bit. Following
the acknowledgment of the register address, the 8-bit register data word is sent. Each data bit should be stable
while SCL is HIGH. After the 8-bit register data is sent, the LM48824 sends another ACK bit. Following the
acknowledgement of the register data word, the master issues a STOP bit, allowing SDA to go high while SCL is
high.

GENERAL DEVICE FUNCTION
The LM48824 integrates a high efficiency step down (buck) DC-DC switching regulator with a ground reference
headphone amplifier. The switching regulator delivers a constant voltage from an input voltage ranging from 2.4V
to 5.5V. The switching regulator uses a voltage-mode architecture with synchronous rectification, improving
efficiency and reducing component count.
The LM48824 headphone amplifier features TI’s ground referenced architecture that eliminates the large DCblocking capacitors required at the outputs of traditional single-ended headphone amplifiers. A low-noise
inverting charge pump creates a negative supply (HPVSS) from the positive supply voltage (VDD). The headphone
amplifiers operate from these bipolar supplies, with the amplifier outputs biased about GND. Because there is no
DC component on the output signals, the large DC-blocking, AC coupling capacitors (typically 220µF) are not
necessary, conserving board space, reducing system cost, and improving frequency response.
CLASS G OPERATION
Class G is a modification of some other class of amplifier (normally Class B or Class AB) to increase efficiency
and reduce power dissipation. Class G works off the fact that musical and voice signals have a high peak to
mean ratio with most of the signal content at low levels. To decrease power dissipation, Class G has multiple
voltage supplies. The LM48824 has two discrete voltage supplies at the output of the buck, 1.1V and 1.8V. When
the output reached the threshold to switch to the higher voltage rails, the rails will switch from 1.1V to 1.8V.
When the output falls below the required voltage rails for a set period of time, it will switch back to the lower rail
until the next time the threshold is reached. Power dissipation is greatly reduced for typical musical or voice
sources. The drawing below shows how a musical output may look. The green lines are the supply voltages at
the output of the buck converter.

DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFIER EXPLANATION
The LM48824 features a differential input stage, which offers improved noise rejection compared to a singleended input amplifier. Because a differential input amplifier amplifies the difference between the two input
signals, any component common to both signals is cancelled.
SYNCHRONOUS RECTIFIER
The buck converter in the LM48824 uses an internal NFET synchronous rectifier to reduce rectifier forward
voltage drop and associated power loss. Synchronous rectification provides a significant improvement in
efficiency whenever the output voltage is relative low compared to the voltage drop across an ordinary rectifier
diode and eliminating the need for the diode.
CURRENT LIMITING
A current limit of the buck converter in the LM48824 allows the device to protect itself and external components
during overload conditions.
PFM OPERATION
During PFM(Pulse-Frequency Modulation) operation, if the output voltage of the buck converter is below the
‘high’ PFM comparator threshold, the PMOS power switch is turned on. It remains on until the output voltage
reaches the ‘high’ PFM threshold or the peak current exceeds the IPFM level set for PFM mode. The typical peak
current in PFM mode is IPFM = 112mA + VDD/27Ω.
Once the PMOS power switch is turned off, the NMOS power switch is turned on until the inductor current ramps
to zero. When the NMOS zero-current condition is detected, the NMOS power switch is turned off. If the output
voltage is below the ‘high’ PFM comparator threshold, the PMOS switch is again turned on and the cycle is
repeated until the output reaches the desired level. Once the output reaches the ‘high’ PFM threshold, the NMOS
switch is turned on briefly to ramp the inductor current to zero and then both output switches are turned off and
the part enters an extremely low power mode.
Figure 34. PFM Operation
SOFT START
The buck converter has a soft-start circuit that limits in-rush current during start-up. During start-up the switch
current limit is increased in steps. Soft start is activated only if global SHDN goes from 1 to 0 after VDD reaches
2.7V. Soft start is implemented by increasing switch current limit in steps of 70mA, 140mA, 280mA, and 750mA
(typical switch current limit). The start-up time thereby depends on the output capacitor and load current of the
buck converter. Typical start-up times with a 10uF output capacitor and 150mA load is 280us and with 5mA load
is 240us.

COMMON-MODE SENSE
The LM48824 features a ground (common mode) sensing feature. In noisy applications, or where the headphone
jack is used as a line out to other devices, noise pick up and ground imbalance can degrade audio quality. The
LM48824 COM input senses and corrects any noise at the headphone return, or any ground imbalance between
the headphone return and device ground, improving audio reproduction. Connect COM directly to the headphone
return terminal of the headphone jack (Figure 35). No additional external components are required. Connect
COM to GND if the common-mode sense feature is not in use.

SHUTDOWN FUNCTION
The LM48824 features individual amplifier shutdown control and a global device shutdown control.
Bit B0 (SHDN) of the MODE CONTROL register controls the global shutdown for the entire device. Set SHDN =
1 to put the device into current-saving shutdown mode, and set SHDN = 0 for normal operation. SHDN defaults
to 1 at power-up.
Bit B7 (HPL_EN) and Bit B6 (HPR_EN) of the MODE CONTROL register (register address 0x01h) controls the
left and right headphone amplifier shutdown respectively. Set HPL_EN = 0 to set the left channel headphone
amplifier to shutdown and set HPL_EN = 1 to enable left channel operation. Set HPR_EN = 0 to set the right
channel headphone amplifier to shutdown and set HPR_EN = 1 to enable right channel operation. The left and
right channel amplifier shutdowns operate individually.
The LM48824 has a shutdown time of 3ms to complete the internal shutdown sequence. After SHDN is set to 1,
any new I2C commands should only be sent after the 3ms shutdown time to ensure proper operation of the
device.
MUTE FUNCTION
The LM48824 features independent left and right channel mute functions.
Bit B7 (MUTE_L) and Bit B6 (MUTE_R) of the VOLUME CONTROL register (register address 0x02h) controls
the mute function of the left and right channels respectively. Set MUTE_L = 1 to mute the left channel and set
the MUTE_R = 1 to mute the right channel. Set MUTE_L = 0 and MUTE_R = 0 to disable mute on the respective
channels. MUTE_L and MUTE_R defaults to 1 at power-up.
LOW THD+N MODE
The LM48824 features a Low THD mode that reduces THD+N to improve audio qaulity. Set B3 (Low_THD) of
the OUTPUT CONTROL register (register address 0x03h) to 1 to enable the Low THD mode. There is a
quiescent and operating current increase in Low THD mode. See Electrical Characteristics and Typical
Performance Characteristics for reference.

PROPER SELECTION OF EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
INDUCTOR SELECTION
There are two main considerations when choosing an inductor; the inductor saturation current and the inductor
current ripple should be small enough to achieve the desired output voltage ripple. Different saturation current
rating specifications are followed by different manufacturers so attention must be given to details. Saturation
current ratings are typically specified at 25°C, ratings at the maximum ambient temperature of application should
be requested from the manufacturer. Shielded capacitors are preferred since these capacitors radiate less noise.
Inductors with low DCR should also be considered to minimize the efficiency.
Inductor value involves trade-offs in performance. Larger inductors reduce inductor triple current, which typically
means less output voltage ripple (for a given size of output capacitor).
REGULATOR INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION (C3)
A ceramic input capacitor of 1µF, 6.3V is sufficient for most applications. Place the input capacitor as close as
possible to the VDD pin of the device. A larger value may be used for improved input voltage filtering. Use X7R or
X5R types; do not use Y5V. DC bias characteristics of ceramic capacitors must be considered when selecting
case sizes like 0805 and 0603.
REGULATOR OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION (C4)
A low ESR ceramic output capacitor of 10µF, 6.3V is sufficient for most applications. Use X7R or X5R types; do
not use Y5V. DC bias characteristics of ceramic capacitors must be considered when selecting case sizes like
0805 and 0603. DC bias characteristics vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and dc bias curves should be
requested from them as part of the capacitor selection process.
CHARGE PUMP CAPACITOR SELECTION
Use low ESR ceramic capacitors (less than 100mΩ) for optimum performance.
CHARGE PUMP FLYING CAPACITOR (C1)
The flying capacitor (C1) affects the load regulation and output impedance of the charge pump. A C1 value that
is too low results in a loss of current drive, leading to a loss of amplifier headroom. A higher valued C1 improves
load regulation and lowers charge pump output impedance to an extent. Above 2.2µF, the RDS(ON) of the charge
pump switches and the ESR of C1 and C2 dominate the output impedance. A lower value capacitor can be used
in systems with low maximum output power requirements.
CHARGE PUMP HOLD CAPACITOR (C2)
The value and ESR of the hold capacitor (C2) directly affects the ripple on CPVSS. Increasing the value of C2
reduces output ripple. Decreasing the ESR of C2 reduces both output ripple and charge pump output impedance.
A lower value capacitor can be used in systems with low maximum output power requirements.
Amplifier Input Capacitor Selection
Input capacitors may be required for some applications, or when the audio source is single-ended. Input
capacitors block the DC component of the audio signal, eliminating any conflict between the DC component of
the audio source and the bias voltage of the LM48824. The input capacitors create a high-pass filter with the
input resistors RIN. The -3dB point of the high-pass filter is found using the equation below.
f = 1 / 2πRINCIN
(Hz)
(1)
Where the value of RIN is given in the Electrical Characteristics VDD = 3.6V.
High-pass filtering the audio signal can be beneficial for some applications. When the LM48824 is using a singleended source, power supply noise on the ground is seen as an input signal. Setting the high-pass filter point
above the power supply noise frequencies, 217Hz in a GSM phone, for example, filters out the noise such that it
is not amplified and heard on the output. Capacitors with a tolerance of 10% or better are recommended for
impedance matching and improved CMRR and PSRR.
