APA4838
Stereo 2.8W Audio Power Amplifier with DC Volume Control
and Selectable Gain
Features
General Description
• Operating Voltage : 4.5V to 5V
The APA4838 is a monolithic integrated circuit , which
• Stereo switchable bridged/single-ended
provides DC volume control , and a stereo bridged
audio power amplifiers capable of producing 2.8W
power amplifiers
(2.3W) into 3Ω with less than 10% (1.0%) THD+N.
• DC Volume Control Interface , 0dB to –78dB
with precision scale
APA4838 includes a DC volume control , stereo
bridge-tied and single-ended audio power amplifiers
, stereo docking outputs , and a selectable gain con-
• Supply Current , IDD = 15mA at Stereo BTL
• Low Shutdown Current , IDD = 0.7µA
trol , that makes it optimally fittable for notebook PC
, multimedia monitors , and other portable
applications. The attenuator range of the volume
• Bridge-Tied Load (BTL) or Single-Ended-(SE) control in APA4838 is from 0dB (DC_Vol=0.8VDD) to

–78dB (DC_Vol=0V) with 31 steps. Both of the depop
circuitry and the thermal shutdown protection circuitry
are integrated in APA4838 , that reduces pops and

• Output Power at 10% THD+N , VDD=5V
– 2.8W/Ch (typ) into a 3 Ω Load
system design , APA4838 combines a stereo bridge-
tied loads (BTL) mode for speaker drive and a stereo
single-end (SE) mode for headphone drive into a
single chip , where both modes are easily switched

– 1.5W/Ch (typ) into a 8Ω Load
• Single-ended mode at 1.0% THD+N
– 95mW/Ch (typ) into 32Ω Load
by the HP Sense input control pin signal. Besides
the low supply current design to increase the effi-
ciency of the amplifiers , APA4838 also features a
shutdown function which keeps the supply current
only 0.7µA (typ).
