60mW, DirectDrive, Stereo Headphone Amplifier
with Low RF Susceptibility and Shutdown
The MAX9724A/MAX9724B stereo headphone amplifiers are designed for portable equipment where board
space is at a premium. These devices use a unique
DirectDrive® architecture to produce a ground-referenced output from a single supply, eliminating the need
for large DC-blocking capacitors, saving cost, board
space, and component height. The MAX9724 suppresses RF radiation received by input and supply
traces acting as antennas and prevents the amplifier
from demodulating the coupled noise. The MAX9724A
offers an externally adjustable gain while the
MAX9724B has an internally preset gain of -1.5V/V. The
MAX9724A/MAX9724B deliver up to 60mW per channel
into a 32Ω load and have low 0.02% THD+N. An 80dB
at 1kHz power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR) allows
these devices to operate from noisy digital supplies
without an additional linear regulator. Comprehensive
click-and-pop circuitry suppresses audible clicks and
pops on startup and shutdown.
The MAX9724A/MAX9724B operate from a single 2.7V
to 5.5V supply, consume only 3.5mA of supply current,
feature short-circuit and thermal-overload protection,
and are specified over the extended -40°C to +85°C
temperature range. The devices are available in tiny 12bump UCSP™ (1.5mm x 2mm) and 12-pin thin QFN
(3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm) packages.

All specifications are 100% tested at TA = +25°C; temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
The amplifier inputs are AC-coupled to GND.
Gain for the MAX9724A is adjustable.
Measurement bandwidth is 22Hz to 22kHz.
Test performed with a 32Ω resistive load connected to GND. Mode transitions are controlled by SHDN. KCP level is calculated
as 20log[(peak voltage during mode transition, no input signal)/(peak voltage under normal operation at rated power level)].
Units are expressed in dB.

60mW, DirectDrive, Stereo Headphone Amplifier
with Low RF Susceptibility and Shutdown
The MAX9724A/MAX9724B stereo headphone amplifiers feature Maxim’s DirectDrive architecture, eliminating the large output-coupling capacitors required by
conventional single-supply headphone amplifiers. The
device consists of two 60mW Class AB headphone
amplifiers, undervoltage lockout (UVLO)/shutdown control, charge pump, and comprehensive click-and-pop
suppression circuitry (see the Functional
Diagram/Typical Operating Circuits). The charge pump
inverts the positive supply (VDD), creating a negative
supply (PVSS). The headphone amplifiers operate from
these bipolar supplies with their outputs biased about
PGND (Figure 1). The benefit of this PGND bias is that
the amplifier outputs do not have a DC component. The
large DC-blocking capacitors required with conventional headphone amplifiers are unnecessary, conserving
board space, reducing system cost, and improving frequency response. The MAX9724A/MAX9724B feature
an undervoltage lockout that prevents operation from
an insufficient power supply and click-and-pop suppression that eliminates audible transients on startup
and shutdown. The MAX9724A/MAX9724B also feature
thermal-overload and short-circuit protection.

DirectDrive
Conventional single-supply headphone amplifiers have
their outputs biased about a nominal DC voltage (typically half the supply) for maximum dynamic range.
Large-coupling capacitors are needed to block this DC
bias from the headphone. Without these capacitors, a
significant amount of DC current flows to the headphone, resulting in unnecessary power dissipation and
possible damage to both headphone and headphone
amplifier.
Maxim’s DirectDrive architecture uses a charge pump
to create an internal negative supply voltage, allowing
the MAX9724A/MAX9724B outputs to be biased about
GND. With no DC component, there is no need for the
large DC-blocking capacitors. The MAX9724A/
MAX9724B charge pumps require two small ceramic
capacitors, conserving board space, reducing cost,
and improving the frequency response of the headphone amplifier. See the Output Power vs. Load
Resistance and Charge-Pump Capacitor Size graph in
the Typical Operating Characteristics for details of the
possible capacitor sizes. There is a low DC voltage on
the amplifier outputs due to amplifier offset. However,
the offsets of the MAX9724A/MAX9724B are typically
1.5mV, which, when combined with a 32Ω load, results
in less than 47µA of DC current flow to the headphones.
DirectDrive BIASING SCHEME
Figure 1. Conventional Driver Output Waveform vs.

Charge Pump
The MAX9724A/MAX9724B feature a low-noise charge
pump. The 270kHz switching frequency is well beyond
the audio range and does not interfere with audio signals. The switch drivers feature a controlled switching
speed that minimizes noise generated by turn-on and
turn-off transients. The di/dt noise caused by the parasitic bond wire and trace inductance is minimized by
limiting the switching speed of the charge pump.
Although not typically required, additional high-frequency noise attenuation can be achieved by increasing the value of C2 (see the Functional Diagram/Typical
Operating Circuits).
RF Susceptibility
Modern audio systems are often subject to RF radiation
from sources like wireless networks and cellular phone
networks. Although the RF radiation is out of the audio
band, many signals, in particular GSM signals, contain
bursts or modulation at audible frequencies. Most analog amplifiers demodulate the low-frequency envelope,
adding noise to the audio signal. The architecture of
_______________________________________________________________________________________
9
the MAX9724 addresses the problem of the RF susceptibility by rejecting RF noise and preventing it from coupling into the audio band.
The RF susceptibility of an amplifier can be measured
by placing the amplifier in an isolated chamber and subjecting it to an electric field of known strength. If the
electric field is modulated with an audio band signal, a
percentage of the modulated signal will be demodulated and amplified by the device in the chamber. Figure 2
shows the signal level at the outputs of an unoptimized
amplifier and the MAX9724. The test conditions are
shown in Table 1.

In conventional single-supply audio amplifiers, the output-coupling capacitor contributes significantly to audible clicks and pops. Upon startup, the amplifier charges
the coupling capacitor to its bias voltage, typically half
the supply. Likewise, on shutdown, the capacitor is discharged. This results in a DC shift across the capacitor,
which appears as an audible transient at the speaker.
Since the MAX9724A/ MAX9724B do not require outputcoupling capacitors, this problem does not arise.
Additionally, the MAX9724A/MAX9724B feature extensive click-and-pop suppression that eliminates any audible transient sources internal to the device.

Shutdown
The MAX9724A/MAX9724B feature a < 0.1µA, lowpower shutdown mode that reduces quiescent current
consumption and extends battery life for portable applications. Drive SHDN low to disable the amplifiers and
the charge pump. In shutdown mode, the amplifier output impedance is set to 14kΩ||RF (RF is 30kΩ for the
MAX9724B). The amplifiers and charge pump are
enabled once SHDN is driven high.
Applications Information
Click-and-Pop Suppression
40
Typically, the output of the device driving the
MAX9724A/MAX9724B has a DC bias of half the supply
voltage. At startup, the input-coupling capacitor, CIN, is
charged to the preamplifier’s DC bias voltage through
the MAX9724A/MAX9724B input resistor, RIN, and a
series 15kΩ resistor. This DC shift across the capacitor
results in an audible click-and-pop. Delay the rise of
SHDN 4 to 5 time constants based on RIN x 15kΩ x CIN
to eliminate clicks-and-pops caused by the input filter.
Power Dissipation
Under normal operating conditions, linear power amplifiers can dissipate a significant amount of power. The
maximum power dissipation for each package is given
in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section under
Continuous Power Dissipation or can be calculated by
the following equation:
PDISSPKG(MAX) =
TJ(MAX) − TA
θJA
where TJ(MAX) is +150°C, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the reciprocal of the derating factor in

60mW, DirectDrive, Stereo Headphone Amplifier
with Low RF Susceptibility and Shutdown
The MAX9724A/MAX9724B have two power dissipation
sources; a charge pump and the two output amplifiers.
If power dissipation for a given application exceeds the
maximum allowed for a particular package, reduce
VDD, increase load impedance, decrease the ambient
temperature, or add heatsinking to the device. Large
output, supply, and ground traces decrease θJA, allowing more heat to be transferred from the package to the
surrounding air.
Thermal-overload protection limits total power dissipation in the MAX9724A/MAX9724B. When the junction
temperature exceeds +150°C, the thermal protection
circuitry disables the amplifier output stage. The amplifiers are enabled once the junction temperature cools
by approximately 12°C. This results in a pulsing output
under continuous thermal-overload conditions.
Output Dynamic Range
Dynamic range is the difference between the noise floor
of the system and the output level at 1% THD+N.
Determine the system’s dynamic range before setting the
maximum output gain. Output clipping occurs if the output signal is greater than the dynamic range of the system. The DirectDrive architecture of the MAX9724A/
MAX9724B has increased the dynamic range compared
to other single-supply amplifiers.
Maximum Output Swing
VDD < 4.35V
If the output load impedance is greater than 1kΩ, the
MAX9724A/MAX9724B can swing within a few millivolts
of their supply rail. For example, with a 3.3V supply, the
output swing is 2VRMS, or 2.83V peak while maintaining
a low 0.003% THD+N. If the supply voltage drops to
3V, the same 2.83V peak has only 0.05% THD+N.
VDD > 4.35V
Internal device structures limit the maximum voltage
swing of the MAX9724A/MAX9724B when operated at
supply voltages greater than 4.35V. The output must not
be driven such that the peak output voltage exceeds the
opposite supply voltage by 9V. For example, if VDD =
5V, the charge pump sets PVSS = -5V. Therefore, the
peak output swing must be less than ±4V to prevent
exceeding the absolute maximum ratings.
UVLO
The MAX9724A/MAX9724B feature an undervoltage
lockout (UVLO) function that prevents the device from
operating if the supply voltage is less than 2.7V. This feature ensures proper operation during brownout conditions and prevents deep battery discharge. Once the
supply voltage exceeds the UVLO threshold, the
MAX9724A/MAX9724B charge pump is turned on and
the amplifiers are powered, provided that SHDN is high.
Component Selection
Input-Coupling Capacitor
The input capacitor (CIN), in conjunction with the input
resistor (RIN), forms a highpass filter that removes the
DC bias from an incoming signal (see the Functional
Diagram/Typical Operating Circuits). The AC-coupling
capacitor allows the device to bias the signal to an optimum DC level. Assuming zero-source impedance, the 3dB point of the highpass filter is given by:
f−3dB =
1
2πRINCIN
Choose the CIN such that f-3dB is well below the lowest
frequency of interest. Setting f-3dB too high affects the
device’s low-frequency response. Use capacitors
whose dielectrics have low-voltage coefficients, such
as tantalum or aluminum electrolytic. Capacitors with
high-voltage coefficients, such as ceramics, can result
in increased distortion at low frequencies.
Charge-Pump Capacitor Selection
Use ceramic capacitors with a low ESR for optimum
performance. For optimal performance over the extended temperature range, select capacitors with an X7R
dielectric. Table 2 lists suggested manufacturers.

Diagram/Typical Operating Circuits) affects the charge

pump’s load regulation and output resistance. A C1
value that is too small degrades the device’s ability to
provide sufficient current drive, which leads to a loss of
output voltage. Increasing the value of C1 improves load
regulation and reduces the charge-pump output resistance to an extent. See the Output Power vs. Load
Resistance and Charge-Pump Capacitor Size graph in
the Typical Operating Characteristics. Above 1µF, the
on-resistance of the switches and the ESR of C1 and C2
dominate.
Hold Capacitor (C2)
The hold capacitor value (see the Functional
Diagram/Typical Operating Circuits) and ESR directly
affect the ripple at PVSS. Increasing the value of C2
reduces output ripple. Likewise, decreasing the ESR of
C2 reduces both ripple and output resistance. Lower
capacitance values can be used in systems with low
maximum output power levels. See the Output Power
vs. Load Resistance and Charge-Pump Capacitor Size
graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics.
Power-Supply Bypass Capacitor (C3)
The power-supply bypass capacitor (see the Functional
Diagram/Typical Operating Circuits) lowers the output
impedance of the power supply, and reduces the
impact of the MAX9724A/MAX9724B’s charge-pump
switching transients. Bypass VDD with C3, the same
value as C1, and place it physically close to the VDD
and PGND pins.
AV = -RF/RIN (V/V)
Choose feedback resistor values in the tens of kΩ
range. Lower values may cause excessive power dissipation and require impractically small values of RIN for
large gain settings. The high-impedance state of the
outputs can also be degraded during shutdown mode
if an inadequate feedback resistor is used since the
equivalent output impedance during shutdown is
14kΩ||Rf (RF is equal to 30kΩ for the MAX9724B). The
source resistance of the input device may also need to
be taken into consideration. Since the effective value of
RIN is equal to the sum of the source resistance of the
input device and the value of the input resistor connected to the inverting terminal of the headphone amplifier
(20kΩ for the MAX9724B), the overall closed-loop gain
of the headphone amplifier can be reduced if the input
resistor is not significantly larger than the source resistance of the input device.

Amplifier Gain
The gain of the MAX9724B amplifier is internally set to

device, reducing external component count. The internally set gain, in combination with DirectDrive, results in
a headphone amplifier that requires only five small
capacitors to complete the amplifier circuit: two for the
charge pump, two for audio input coupling, and one for
power-supply bypassing (see the Functional
Diagram/Typical Operating Circuits).

sinusoidal signal equates to approximately 5.7VP-P,
which means that the audio system designer cannot
simply run the lineout stage from a (typically common)
5V supply—the resulting output swing would be inadequate. A common solution to this problem is to use op
amps driven from split supplies (±5V typically), or to
use a high-voltage supply rail (9V to 12V). This can
mean adding extra cost and complexity to the system
power supply to meet this output level requirement.
Having the ability to derive 2VRMS from a 5V supply, or
even 3.3V supply, can often simplify power-supply
design in some systems.
When the MAX9724A is used as a line driver to provide
outputs that feed stereo equipment (receivers, STBs,
notebooks, and desktops) with a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) used as an audio input source, it is often
desirable to eliminate any high-frequency quantization
noise produced by the DAC output before it reaches
the load. This high-frequency noise can cause the input
stages of the line-in equipment to exceed slew-rate limitations or create excessive EMI emissions on the
cables between devices.

The MAX9724A can be used as an audio line driver
capable of providing 2VRMS into 10kΩ loads with a single 5V supply (see Figure 4 for the RMS Output Voltage
vs. Supply Voltage plot). 2VRMS is a popular audio line
level, first used in CD players, but now common in DVD
and set-top box (STB) interfacing standards. A 2VRMS
To suppress this noise, and to provide a 2VRMS standard audio output level from a single 5V supply, the
MAX9724A can be configured as a line driver and
active lowpass filter. Figure 5 shows the MAX9724A
connected as 2-pole Rauch/multiple feedback filter with
a passband gain of 6dB and a -3dB (below passband)
cutoff frequency of approximately 27kHz (see Figure 6
for the Gain vs. Frequency plot).
Layout and Grounding
Proper layout and grounding are essential for optimum
performance. Connect PGND and SGND together at a
single point on the PC Board. Connect PVSS to SVSS
and bypass with a 1µF capacitor. Place the power-supply bypass capacitor and the charge-pump hold
capacitor as close to the MAX9724 as possible. Route
PGND and all traces that carry switching transients
away from SGND and the audio signal path. The thin
QFN package features an exposed paddle that
improves thermal efficiency. Ensure that the exposed
paddle is electrically isolated from PGND, SGND,
and VDD. Connect the exposed paddle to SVSS only
when the board layout dictates that the exposed
paddle cannot be left floating.
