LM48901
January 5, 2012
Quad Class D Spatial Array
General Description
The LM48901 is a quad Class D amplifier that utilizes Texas
Instruments’ proprietary spatial sound processor to create an
enhanced sound stage for portable multimedia devices. The
Class D output stages feature Texas Instruments’ edge rate
control (ERC) PWM architecture that significantly reduces RF
emissions while preserving audio quality and efficiency.
The LM48901’s flexible I2S interface is compatible with stan-
dard serial audio interfaces. A stereo differential-input ADC
gives the device the ability to process analog stereo audio
signals.
The LM48901 is configured through an I2C compatible inter-
face and is capable of delivering 2.8W/channel of continuous
output power into an 4Ω load with less than 10% THD+N. A
2.1 mode pairs two output drivers in parallel, increasing cur-
rent drive for 4Ω loads.
Output short circuit and thermal overload protection prevent
the device from being damaged during fault conditions. Su-
perior click and pop suppression eliminates audible transients
on power-up/down and during shutdown. The LM48901 is
available in space saving microSMD and LLP packages.
