CS35L00
In both HD and FHD mode, the value of the capacitance connected to the LFILT+ pin must not exceed
4.7 μF. If this value is greater than 4.7 μF, it will prevent the rail voltage of the output devices from transi-
tioning properly between VBATT and the internal LDO.
5.1.2.1 HD Mode
Hybrid Class-D mode (HD) provides competitive analog performance with a substantial reduction in idle
power dissipation and radiation emissions. In this mode, the output switches at 192 kHz and a secondary
supply is derived from VBATT using an internal 1.0 VDC low drop-out linear regulator (LDO). When the
output signal is at a low amplitude, the Class-D output stage begins to switch from the lower rail voltage
created by the internal LDO. This not only decreases idle power consumption when output capacitors are
used, but also reduces electromagnetic emissions by reducing the amplitude of the square waves being
created at the output of the CS35L00 when operating at low amplitude or idle power.
5.1.2.2 FHD Mode
The Reduced Frequency Hybrid Class-D (FHD) mode provides the best overall EMI performance and the
lowest power consumption with slightly decreased frequency response near the top frequency range of
the audio band, for high amplitude signals. In this mode of operation, the output switching frequency is
reduced to 76 kHz during high amplitude transients on the output. The threshold at which this transition
from 192 kHz to 76 kHz switching rate occurs is given as the Input Level Threshold for FHD Operation in
“Electrical Characteristics - FHD Mode” on page 13. Combined with the lower amplitude switching offered
by the Hybrid design, this reduction in switching energy dramatically reduces the emissions levels of the
output stage and its associated components.
5.2 Reducing the Gain with External Series Resistors
If necessary, it is possible to decrease the gain of the CS35L00 by adding series resistors to the audio input
signal as is shown in Figure 4 below.
