low noise are obtained. Several new features like
softmute, and zero-crossing mute are
implemented. The soft Mute function can be
activated in two ways either via the serial bus
(Mute byte, bit D0), or directly on pin 28 through
an I/O line of the microcontroller
Very low DC stepping is obtained by use of a
BICMOS technology.

I2C bus interface
I2C bus interface
3
Data transmission from the microprocessor to the TDA7437N, and vice versa, takes place
through the 2 wires of the I2C BUS interface, consisting of the two lines SDA and SCL (pullup resistors to positive supply voltage must be externally connected).
3.1
Data validity
As shown in Figure 4, the data on the SDA line must be stable during the high period of the
clock. The HIGH and LOW state of the data line can only change when the clock signal on
the SCL line is LOW.

As shown in Figure 5 a start condition is a HIGH to LOW transition of the SDA line while
SCL is HIGH. The stop condition is a LOW to HIGH transition of the SDA line while SCL is
HIGH. A STOP conditions must be sent before each START condition.

3.4
Acknowledge
The master (microprocessor) puts a resistive HIGH level on the SDA line during the
acknowledge clock pulse (see Figure 6). The peripheral (audioprocessor) that
acknowledges has to pull-down (LOW) the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse, so
that the SDA line is stable LOW during this clock pulse. The audioprocessor which has been
addressed has to generate an acknowledgment after the reception of each byte, otherwise
the SDA line remains at the HIGH level during the ninth clock pulse time. In this case the
master transmitter can generate the STOP information in order to abort the transfer.

Transmission without acknowledgment
To avoid detection of the acknowledge clock pulse of the audioprocessor, the microprocessor can
use a simpler transmission: it simply waits one clock pulse, and sends the new data. This is less
protected from any errors and will decrease the immunity to noise.

Interface protocol
The interface protocol comprises of:
●
A start condition (s)
●
A chip address byte, (the LSB bit determines read (=1)/write (=0) transmission)
●
A subaddress byte.
●
A sequence of data (N-bytes + acknowledge)
●
A stop condition (P)

TDA7437N
Mute and pause features
The TDA7437N provides three types of mute, controlled via I2C bus (see Table 9 Mute byte
register).
5.1
Soft mute
Bit D0 = 1 → Soft mute ON
Bit D0 = 0 → Soft mute OFF
It allows an automatic soft muting and unmuting of the signal.
The time constant is fixed by an external capacitor Csm inserted between pin Csm and
ground.
)
s
(
ct
u
d
o
Once the external capacitor is fixed, two different slopes (time constant) are selectable by
programming of bit D1.
r
P
e
Bit D1 = 0 → fast slope (I=Imax)
Bit D1 = 1 → slow slope (I=Imin)
t
e
l
o
The soft mute generates a gradually decreasing signal, avoiding big click noise of an
immediate high attenuation, without necessity to program a sequence of decreasing volume
levels. A response example is reported in Figure 11 (mute), and Figure 12 (unmute). The
final attenuation obtained with soft mute ON is 60dB typical. The used reference parameter
is the delay time taken to reach 20dB attenuation (no matter what the signal level is).
)

Using a capacitor Csm = 22nF this delay is:

u
d = 1. 8mswhen selected Fast slope mode (bit D1=0)
d = 25 ms when selected Slow slope mode (bit D1=1
d
o
r
In the application, the soft mute ON programming should be followed by programming of
direct mute on (see 5.2), in order to achieve a final 100dB attenuation. In addition to the I2C
bus programming, the Soft Mute ON can be generated in a fast way by forcing a LOW level
at pin SMEXT (TTL Level compatible). This approach is recommended for fast RDS AF
switching.

The Soft Mute status can be detected via I2C bus, reading the Transmitted Byte, bit SM
(see Table 6).
read bit SM = 1 soft mute status ON
read bit SM = 0 soft mute status OFF
Direct mute
bit D3 = 1 Direct mute ON
bit D3 = 0 Direct mute OFF
The direct mute bit forces an internal immediate signal connection to ground.
It is located just before the Volume/Loudness stage, and gives a typical 100dB attenuation.

Mute and pause features
Speakers mute
An additional direct mute function is included in the speakers attenuators stage.
The four output LF, RF, LR, RR can be separately muted by setting the speaker attenuator
byte to the value 01111111 binary.
Typical attenuation level 100dB. This mute is useful for fader and balance functions. It
should not be applied for system mute/unmute, because it can generate noise due to the
offset of previous stages (bass / treble).

Pause function
On chip is implemented by a pause detector block.
It uses the same 4 windows threshold selectable for the zero crossing mute, bit D6,D5 byte
MUTE (see above). The detector can be put into OFF by forcing bit D4 = 1, otherwise it is
active.
Pause detector information is available at the PAUSE pin. A capacitor must be connected
between the PAUSE pin and ground.
23/34
Mute and pause features
TDA7437N
When the incoming signal is detected to be outside the selected window, the external
capacitor is discharged. When the signal is inside the window, the capacitor is integrating up
(see Figure 15 and Figure 16).
a)
by reading directly the Pause pin level.The ON/OFF voltage threshold is 3.0V
typical. Pause OFF = level low (< 3.0V) Pause ON = level high ( ; 3.0V)
b)
by reading via I2C bus the transmitted byte, bit PP = 0 pause active. P = 1 no
pause detected. The external capacitor value fixes the time constant.
The pull up current is 25uV typical, with input signal
Vin = 1Vrm --; Vdc pin pause = 15mV
Vin = 0Vrms --; Vdc pin pause = 5.62V
)
s
(
ct
For example choosing Cpause = 100nF the charge up constant is about 22ms. Instead with
Cpause = 15nF the charge up constant is about 360μs.
The pause detection is useful in applications like RDS, to perform noiseless tuning
frequency jumps, avoiding the use of the mute.

TDA7437N
Mute and pause features
The type (stereo/mono) of received broadcasting signal is easily checked and displayed by
using the ST bit.
The P bit check is useful in tuning jumps without signal muting.
The SM soft mute status becomes active immediately, when bit D0 is set to 1 (soft mute ON,
MUTE byte) and not when the signal level has reached the 60 dB final attenuation.
TDA7437N I2C bus protocol
5.8
The protocol is standard I2C, using subaddress byte plus data bytes (as shown within
Chapter 4).
)
s
(
ct
The optional autoincrement mode allows to refresh all the bytes registers with transmission
of a single subaddress, reducing drastically the total transmission time.
Without autoincrement, subaddress bit I = 0, to refresh all the bytes registers (10), it is
necessary to transmit 10 times the chip address, the subaddress and the data byte.
Working with a 100Kb/s clock speed the total time would be :
u
d
o
r
P
e
[(9*3+2)*10]bits*10us=2.9ms
t
e
l
o
Instead using autoincrement mode, subaddress bit I=1, the total time will be:
(9*12+2)*10us=1.1ms.
s
b
O
The autoincrement mode is useful also to refresh partially the data. For example to refresh
the 4 speakers attenuators it is possible to program the subaddress Spkr LF (code
XX010100), followed by the data byte of SPKR LF, LR, RF, RR in sequence.
)
(s
Note: that the autoincrement mode has a module 16 counter, whereas the total used
register bytes are 10.
t
c
u
It is not correct to refresh all the 10 bytes starting from a subaddress different than
XX010000.
d
o
r
For example; using subaddress XX010010 (volume), the registers from Volume to Mute (see
Table 5) are correctly updated, but the next two transmitted bytes, refer instead to the
wanted Input selector, and Loudness are discharged. (the solution in this case is to send
two separate patterns in autoincrement mode, the first composed by address, subaddress
XX010010, 8 data bytes, and the second composed by address, subaddress XX010000, 2
data bytes).
P
e
s
b
O
t
e
l
o
With autoincrement disabled, the protocol allows the transmission in sequence of N data
bytes of a specific register, without the necessity to resend the address and subaddress
bytes, each time.
This feature can be implemented, for example, if a gradual volume change has to be
performed (the MCU does not send the STOP condition, but keeps the TDA7437N
communication active).
Warning:
The TDA7437N always needs to receive a STOP condition,
before beginning a new START condition. The device doesn't
recognize a START condition if a previously active
communication was not ended by a STOP condition.

TDA7437N
I2C bus read mode
The TDA7437N sends the master a 1 byte "transmitted info" via I2C bus in read mode.
The read mode is master activated by sending the chip address with LSB set to 1, followed
by an acknowledge bit.
The TDA7437N recognizes the request. At the following master generated clock bits, the
TDA7437N issues the transmitted inFO byte on the SDA data bus line (MSB transmitted
first).
At the ninth clock bit the MCU master can:
5.10
●
acknowledge the reception, starting in this way the transmission of another byte from
the TDA7437N.
●
no acknowledge, stopping the read mode communication.

O5.12 IN-OUT pins
The treble stage is a simple high pass filter, it’s time constant is fixed by internal resistor
(typically 50Kohm), and an external capacitor, connected between pins TREB_R/TREB_L
and ground.
The multiplexer output is available at OUT_R and OUT_L pins for the optional connection of
an external graphic equalizer (TDA7316/TDA7317), surround chip (TDA7346) etc. The
signal is fed in again at pins IN_L and IN-R. In the case of an application without any
external devices, the pins OUT_L/OUT_R and IN_L/IN_R can be left unconnected, if bit D3
byte input selector is forced = 0 (DC connect). Instead if bit D3 is kept = 1 an external
decoupling capacitor must be provided between OUTR/INR and OUTL/INR to avoid signal
DC jumps, generating "clicking" output noise. The input impedance of the next volume stage
is 44Kohm typical (minimum 31Kohm). A capacitor no lower than 1mF should be used.

Bass & mid filters
Several bass filter types can be implemented. Normally it is the basic T-type bandpass filter
that is used. Starting from the filter component values (R1 internal and R2, C1, C2 external),
the centre frequency Fc, the gain Av at max bass boost and the filter Q factor are computed
as follows:
1
F c = ----------------------------------------------------------------2 ⋅ Π ⋅ R1 ⋅ R2 ⋅ C1 ⋅ C2
R2 ⋅ C2 + R2 ⋅ C1 + R1 ⋅ C1
A v = -------------------------------------------------------------------------R2 ⋅ C1 + R2 ⋅ C2

case, a Cin=1uF is recommended.
