20W Stereo Class D Speaker Amplifier
with Volume Control
General Description
Features
The MAX9744 20W stereo Class D audio power amplifi- ♦ Wide 4.5V to 14V Power-Supply Voltage Range
er provides Class AB amplifier performance with Class
D efficiency, conserving board space and eliminating
♦ Filterless Spread-Spectrum Modulation Lowers
the need for a bulky heatsink. This device features sin-
gle-supply operation, adjustable gain, shutdown mode,
SYNC output, speaker mute, and industry-leading click-
and-pop suppression.
The MAX9744 features a 64-step dual-mode (analog or
digital), programmable volume control and mute func-
Y tion. The MAX9744 operates from a 4.5V to 14V single
supply and can deliver up to 20W per channel into a
4Ω speaker with a 14V supply.
The MAX9744 offers two modulation schemes: a fixed-
R frequency modulation mode that allows one of several
preset switching frequencies to be selected, and a
spread-spectrum modulation mode that helps to
reduce EMI-radiated emissions.
A The MAX9744 features high 75dB PSRR, low 0.04%
THD+N, and SNR in excess of 90dB. Robust short-cir-
cuit and thermal-overload protection prevent device
damage during a fault condition. The MAX9744 is avail-
N able in a 44-pin thin QFN-EP (7mm x 7mm x 0.8mm)
package and is specified over the extended -40°C to
I +85°C temperature range.
