Description
The STA333SML is an integrated circuit
comprising digital audio processing, digital
amplifier control and an FFX power output stage
to create a high-power, single-chip FFX solution
for all-digital amplification with high quality and
high efficiency.
Features
Wide-range supply voltage (4.5 V - 18 V)
2 channels of ternary PWM (stereo mode)
The STA333SML power section consists of four
independent half-bridge stages. Two channels
can be provided by two full bridges, providing up
to 10 W + 10 W of power.
2 channels of 24-bit FFXTM
100 dB SNR and dynamic range
Digital gain +24dB
Also featured in the STA333SML are new
advanced modes for AM radio interference
reduction. The serial audio data input interface
accepts the popular I²S format. Two channels of
FFXTM processing are provided.
Sample rates (fs) from 32 to 48 kHz
Fixed MCLK at 256 x fs
Automatic zero-detect mute
Automatic invalid input detect mute
The STA333SML is part of the Sound Terminal®
family that provides full digital audio streaming to
the speaker, offering cost effectiveness, lowpower dissipation and sound enrichment.

Stresses beyond those listed in Table 3: Absolute maximum
ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These
are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device
at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in
Table 5: Recommended operating conditions are not implied.
Exposure to absolute maximum rated conditions for
extended periods may affect device reliability. In the real
application, a power supply with nominal value rated within
the limits of the recommended operating conditions may rise
beyond the maximum operating conditions for a short time
when no or very low current is sunk (amplifier in mute state).
In this case the reliability of the device is guaranteed,
provided that the absolute maximum ratings are not
exceeded.

Serial audio interface protocols
The STA333SML serial audio input was designed to interface with standard digital audio
components and to accept I²S formats. The STA333SML always acts as a slave when
receiving audio input from standard digital audio components. Serial data for two channels
is provided using 3 input pins: left/right clock LRCKI (pin B4), serial clock BICKI (pin C4),
and serial data SDI (pin A5).
The available formats are shown in Figure 6, Figure 7 and Figure 8.
