NCP2815
NOCAPt LongPlay
Headphone Amplifier
NCP2815 is a dual LongPlay true ground headphone amplifier
designed for portable communication device applications such as
mobile phones. This part is capable of delivering 26 mW of
continuous average power into a 32 W load from a 1.8 V power supply
with a THD+N of 1%.
Based on the power supply delivered to the device, an internal
power management block generates a symmetrical positive and
negative voltage. Thus, the internal amplifiers provide outputs
referenced to Ground and the losses are reduced which helps to
increase the battery life. In this NOCAP configuration, the two
external heavy coupling capacitors can be removed. This provides a
significant space and cost savings compared to a typical stereo
application.
NCP2815 is available with an external adjustable gain (version A),
or internal gain of −1.5 V/V (version B). It reaches a superior −100 dB
PSRR and noise floor. Thus, it offers high fidelity audio sound, as well
as a direct connection to the battery. It contains circuitry to prevent
“Pop & Click” noise that would otherwise occur during turn−on and
turn−off transitions. The device is available in 12 bump CSP package
(1.2 x 1.6 mm) which helps to save space on the board.

NCP2815
DETAIL OPERATING DESCRIPTION
Detailed Description
Input Capacitor Selection
The NCP2815 is a stereo headphone amplifier with
NOCAP architecture. This architecture eliminates the need
to use two big external capacitors required by conventional
headphone amplifier.
The structure of the NCP2815 is composed of two true
ground amplifiers, a UVLO, a short circuit protection and a
thermal shutdown circuit. Additionally, a special circuit is
embedded to eliminate any pop and click noise that occurs
during turn on and turn off time. Version A has an external
gain selectable by two resistors, Version B has a gain of
1.5 V/V.
The input coupling capacitor blocks the DC voltage at the
amplifier input terminal. This capacitor creates a high−pass
filter with Rin (externally selectable for Version A, 20 kW for
Version B).
The size of the capacitor must be large enough to couple
in the low frequencies without severe attenuation in the
audio bandwith (20 Hz – 20 kHz).
The cut off frequency for the input high−pass filter is :
Fc +
1
2pR inC in
A Fc < 20 Hz is recommended.
NOCAP
NOCAP is a patented architecture which requires only 2
small ceramic capacitors. It generates a symmetrical
positive and negative voltage which it allows the output of
the amplifiers to be biased to ground.
Charge Pump Capacitor Selection
Use a ceramic capacitor with low ESR for better
performances. An X5R / X7R capacitor is recommended.
The flying capacitor (C2) serves to transfer charge during
the generation of the negative voltage.
The PVM capacitor (C3) must be equal at least to the
flying capacitor to allow maximum transfer charge.
Table 1 suggests typical values and manufacturers:
LongPlay Architecture
NCP2815 includes a LongPlay architecture which helps
to save battery life by reducing the quiescent current. The
charge pump frequency is reduced to 125 kHz for an output
load < 500 mW.
Table 1.
Current Limit Protection Circuit
The NCP2815 contains protection circuitry against shorts
to ground. The currrent is limited to 300 mA when an output
is shorted to GND and a signal appears at the input.

Murata
Lower value capacitors can be used but the maximum
output power is reduced and the device may not operate to
specifications.
Internal amplifiers are switched off when the temperature
exceeds 160°C, and are switched back on when the
temperature decreases below 140°C.
Power Supply Decoupling Capacitor (C1)
Under Voltage Lockout
The NCP2815 is a True Ground amplifier which requires
an adequate decoupling capacitor to reduce noise and
THD + N. It is recommended to use an X5R / X7R ceramic
capacitor with a value of 1 mF and place it as close as
possible to the Vp pin.
When the battery voltage decreases below 1.4 V, the
amplifiers are turned off. The hysteresis required to turn
back on the device is 100 mV.
Pop and Click Suppression Circuitry
The NCP2815 includes a special circuit to eliminate any
pop and click noise during turn on and turn off time. The
amplifier creates an offset during these transitions at the
output which give a parasitic noise called “pop and click
noise”. The NCP2815 eliminates this problem.
Shutdown Function
The device enters in shutdown mode when the shutdown
signal is low. During the shutdown mode, the DC quiescent
current of the circuit does not exceed 1 mA. In this
configuration, the output impedance is 20 kW on each
output.
Gain Setting Resistor Selection (Rin and Rf, A Version
Only)
Layout Recommendation
Rin and Rf set the closed loop gain of the amplifier. A low
gain configuration (close to 1) minimizes the THD + noise
values and maximizes the signal to noise ratio.
A closed loop gain in the range of 1 to 10 is recommended
to optimize overall system performance.
The formula to calculate the gain is:
Av + *
Value
Connect C1 as close as possible to the Vp pin.
Connect C2 and C3 as close as possible to the NCP2815.
Route the audio signal and SGND far away from Vp, CPP,
CPM, PVM and PGND to avoid any perturbation due to the
switching.
