Figure 25. Startup Timing
When RESET is released to turn on TPA3250, FAULT signal will turn low and AVDD voltage regulator will be
enabled. FAULT will stay low until AVDD reaches the undervoltage protection (UVP) voltage threshold (see the
Electrical Characteristics table of this data sheet). After a precharge time to stabilize the DC voltage across the
input AC coupling capacitors, before the ramp up sequence starts.
11.3 Powering Down
The TPA3250 does not require a power-down sequence. The device remains fully operational as long as the
gate-drive supply (GVDD_X) voltage and VDD voltage are above the undervoltage protection (UVP) voltage
threshold (see the Electrical Characteristics table of this data sheet). Although not specifically required, it is a
good practice to hold RESET low during power down, thus preventing audible artifacts including pops or clicks by
initiating a controlled ramp down sequence of the output voltage.

11.4 Thermal Design
11.4.1 Thermal Performance
TPA3250 thermal performance is dependent on the thermal design of the PCB. As a result, the maximum
continuous output power attainable will be influenced by the PCB design. The continuous power rating is lower
than the peak output power capability of the device. TPA3250 peak power rating is based on the burst capability
of the device. The peak to average power ratio of TPA3250 is well suited to handle even demanding audio
playback without thermal shutdown. Thermal performance with typical audio content (burst) versus sine wave
content (continuous) should be considered when defining the thermal test requirements for the end product.
11.4.2 Thermal Performance with Continuous Output Power
It is recommended to operate TPA3250 below the OTW threshold, which in most systems will require the
average output power to be below the maximum peak output power. The maximum continuous power TPA3250
will deliver depends directly on the thermal design of the PCB and for the entire system (closed box with no air
flow, or a fanned system etc.). Thermal performance is also impacted by PVDD voltage and switching frequency.
The best configuration for a given application will often depend on the continuous output power requirements.

11.4.3 Thermal Performance with Non-Continuous Output Power
As audio signals often have a peak to average ratio larger than one (average level below maximum peak output),
the thermal performance for audio signals can be illustrated using burst signals with different burst ratios.
Figure 26. Example of audio signal
A burst signal is characterized by the high-level to low-level ratio as well as the duration of the high level and low
level, e.g. a burst 1:4 stimuli is a single period of high level followed by 4 cycles of low level.
High level
Low level
1cycle : 4cycles
Figure 27. Example of 1:4 Burst Signal
The following analysis of thermal performance for TPA3250 is made with the TPA3250 EVM surrounded by still
air (no airflow) with a controlled air temperature of 40°C. For 32-V operation the system is not thermally limited
with 8Ω load, but depending on the burst stimuli for operation at 36V some thermal limitations may occur,
depending on switching frequency and average to maximum power ratio. Low to maximum power ratio of the
burst stimuli is given in the plots as for example P1:8 which equals 1 cycle of full power followed by 8 cycles of
low power.

12 Layout
12.1 Layout Guidelines
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Use an unbroken ground plane to have good low impedance and inductance return path to the power supply
for power and audio signals.
Maintain a contiguous ground plane from the ground pins to the PCB area surrounding the device for as
many of the ground pins as possible, since the ground pins are the best conductors of heat in the package.
PCB layout, audio performance and EMI are linked closely together.
Routing the audio input should be kept short and together with the accompanied audio source ground.
The small bypass capacitors on the PVDD lines of the DUT be placed as close the PVDD pins as possible.
A local ground area underneath the device is important to keep solid to minimize ground bounce.
Orient the passive component so that the narrow end of the passive component is facing the TPA3250
device, unless the area between two pads of a passive component is large enough to allow copper to flow in
between the two pads.
Avoid placing other heat producing components or structures near the TPA3250 device.
Avoid cutting off the flow of heat from the TPA3250 device to the surrounding ground areas with traces or via
strings, especially on output side of device.
Netlist for this printed circuit board is generated from the schematic in Figure 32.
