Texas Instruments TAS6424R-Q1 Digital-Input Class-D Audio Amplifier

Texas Instruments TAS6424R-Q1 Digital-Input Class-D Audio Amplifier implements a 2.1MHz PWM switching frequency, enabling a cost-optimized device in a tiny PCB size. The device also has full operation down to 4.5V for start/stop events and exceptional sound quality with up to 40kHz audio bandwidth. The output switching frequency can be set above or below the AM band. Above the AM band eliminates AM-band interferences and reduces output filtering and cost. Below the AM band can help optimize efficiency.

The device has a built-in load diagnostic function for detecting and diagnosing misconnected outputs. This function can detect AC-coupled tweeters to help reduce test time during manufacturing. The devices add EMI management features, including spread-spectrum, output phase offset, and optimized slew rate to assist in system-level EMI challenges. The Texas Instruments TAS6424R-Q1 Class-D audio amplifier is designed for use in automotive head units and external amplifier modules.
