WEBSITE 770-436-1300 www.murata-northamerica.com Note: Indicate that you are using the MAX9792A when contacting this component supplier. Quick Start Detailed Description of Hardware Required Equipment The MAX9792A EV kit demonstrates the MAX9792A IC in a 28-pin TQFN package with an exposed pad. The IC combines a mono Class D amplifier, a stereo DirectDrive headphone amplifier, and a 120mA, 4.75V LDO for notebook, tablet PC, and portable media player applications. The EV kit demonstrates Maxim’s DirectDrive technology, which eliminates bulky DCblocking capacitors at the headphone amplifier output. The MAX9792A IC features adjustable gain. • One 5V, 3A DC Supply • One 3Ω speaker • One stereo headphone • Two audio signal sources: one mono and another stereo Procedure The MAX9792A EV kit is fully assembled and tested. Follow the steps below to verify board operation. Caution: Do not turn on the power supply until all connections are completed. 1) Verify that shunts are installed as follows: JU1: Pins 2-3 (speaker amplifier enabled) JU2: Pins 1-2 (headphone amplifier enabled) JU3: Pins 1-2 (LDO enabled) JU4: Installed (HPVDD connected to AVDD) JU5: Installed (wake-on-beep function disabled) 2) Set the power-supply output to 5V. 3) Disable the power-supply output. 4) Connect the power-supply ground to the PGND binding post and the power-supply positive output to the AVDD binding post. 5) Verify that the audio source output is disabled. 6) Connect the stereo audio source’s right channel to the HPINR phono jack and the left channel to the HPINL phono jack. 7) Connect the mono audio source to the SPIN phono jack. The MAX9792A EV kit is configured for a 12dB speaker amplifier gain and 0dB headphone amplifier gain. The gains can be adjusted by modifying the corresponding gain-setting resistors (R1, R3, and R4). R1 sets the speaker amplifier gain while R3 and R4 set the headphone amplifier gain. The EV kit is designed to operate from a 4.5V to 5.5V speaker supply providing 3A. To use the LDO, AVDD must range from 4.9V to 5.5V. An optional separate 2.7V to 5.5V headphone supply can power the headphone amplifier. The EV kit is capable of delivering up to 3W into a 3Ω speaker, 180mW into a 32Ω headphone load, and 120mA from the 4.75V LDO output. In applications where the speaker leads exceed 225mm, replace resistors R7 and R8 with surfacemount 0805 ferrite beads and install surface-mount 0603 capacitors for C13 and C14. Refer to the Optional Ferrite Bead Filter section of the MAX9791/MAX9792 IC data sheet for more information. The speaker outputs do not require an output filter as the MAX9792A relies on the inherent inductance of the speaker coil and the natural filtering of an attached speaker. For optimum results, use a speaker with a series inductance > 10µH. The EV kit layout shows an optional speaker output filter for evaluation purposes only. 8) Plug the headphone into the HPOUT headphone jack. 9) Connect the speaker across the SPOUT+ and SPOUT- binding posts. 10) Enable the power-supply output. 11) Enable the audio sources. 12) Verify that the headphones and speakers are playing the audio source signals. 2 _______________________________________________________________________________________ MAX9792A Evaluation Kit LDO Shutdown Jumper JU3 enables or disables the LDO (LDO_EN). To use the LDO, AVDD must range between 4.9V and 5.5V. See Table 3 for jumper JU3 configuration to shut down or enable the LDO. Optional Headphone Supply Configuration Jumper JU4 configures the source for the headphone power supply (HPVDD). To power HPVDD using AVDD, install a shunt on jumper JU4. To use an optional separate supply for HPVDD, do not install a shunt on jumper JU4 and connect a 2.7V to 5.5V supply across the HPVDD and PGND binding posts. See Table 4 for jumper JU4 configuration. Wake-on-Beep Jumper JU5 controls the MAX9792A EV kit’s wake-onbeep feature. A qualified BEEP signal overrides HP_EN and SPKR_EN enabling the speaker and headphone amplifiers. Refer to the Wake-on-Beep section of the MAX9791/MAX9792 IC data sheet for more information. To use the wake-on-beep feature, remove the shunt from jumper JU5, connect a user-supplied BEEP signal across the BEEP and nearby PGND PCB pads. Note: Do not leave the BEEP pin unconnected. The LDO must be enabled to use the wake-on-beep feature. See Table 5 for jumper JU5 configuration. Table 2.

The gain can be changed by replacing these resistors with other surface-mount 0603 resistors. Use ±1% tolerance resistors for optimum performance. See Table 6 and the following equations to select new gain-setting resistors in kilohms for the corresponding channel: Table 6. Component Function CHANNEL RIN Speaker R1 Headphone right R3 Headphone left R4 ⎛ 20kΩ ⎞ RINSPKR [kΩ] = − 4 × ⎜ ⎟ ⎝ A VSPKR ⎠ where AVSPKR is the desired speaker voltage gain and RINSPKR is the speaker amplifier’s input resistor (R1). ⎛ 40.2kΩ ⎞ RINHP [kΩ] = − ⎜ ⎟ ⎝ A VHP ⎠ where AVHP is the desired headphone voltage gain and RINHP is the headphone amplifier input resistors (R3 or R4). 4 _______________________________________________________________________________________ MAX9792A Evaluation Kit Evaluates: MAX9792A Figure 1.
