8.2.2.4 Audio Amplifier Input Capacitor Selection

Input capacitors may be required for some applications, or when the audio source is single-ended. Input capacitors block the DC component of the audio signal, eliminating any conflict between the DC component of the audio source and the bias voltage of the LM48511. The input capacitors create a highpass filter with the input resistors RIN. The -3dB point of the highpass filter is found by:

Equation 4. f = 1 / 2πRINCIN

In single-ended configurations, the input capacitor value affects click-and-pop performance. The LM48511 features a 50-mg turnon delaly. Choose the input capacitor / input resistor values such that the capacitor is charged before the 50-ms turnon delay expires. A capacitor value of 0.18 μF and a 20-kΩ input resistor are recommended. In differential applications, the charging of the input capacitor does not affect click-and-pop significantly.

The input capacitors can also be used to remove low-frequency content from the audio signal. Highpass filtering the audio signal helps protect speakers that can not reproduce or may be damaged by low frequencies. When the LM48511 is using a single-ended source, power supply noise on the ground is seen as an input signal. Setting the highpass filter point above the power supply noise frequencies, 217 Hz in a GSM phone, for example, filters out the noise such that it is not amplified and heard on the output. Capacitors with a tolerance of 10% or better are recommended for impedance matching and improved CMRR and PSRR.
