9.3.7 LIMTHRES

The AGL and PLIMIT voltage threshold is set by the applied LIMTHRES voltage. The LIMTHRES voltage is set by a voltage divider from GVDD to GND. The limiting is done by limiting the amplifier output voltage to a fixed maximum value. This limit can be thought of as a "virtual" voltage rail, which is lower than the PVCC supply. This virtual rail is 4 times the voltage at the LIMTHRES pin. This output voltage can be used to calculate the maximum output voltage (unclipped using AGL and clipped using PLIMIT) and power for a given LIMTHRES voltage and speaker impedance.

Equation 1. TPA3140D2 PLIMITeq.gif

Where:

RS is the total series resistance including RDS(on), and any resistance in the output filter.

RL is the load resistance.

VP is the peak amplitude of the output possible within the supply rail.

VP = 4 × LIMTHRES voltage if VP < PVCC

POUT = Maximum unclipped output power. 10%THD using PLIMIT: 1.25 × PMAX (unclipped)

Increasing the LIMTHRES voltage from a given value increases the maximum output voltage swing until it equals PVCC. Adjusting LIMTHRES to a higher value will disable both the AGL and PLIMIT function and will offer highest available output power, however it is always advised to use the LIMTHRES function if PVCC is higher than the nominal value to prevent shutdown due to over current protection or to reduce frequency of thermal foldback events. To disable the AGL or PLIMIT function, the LIMTHRES pin is simply connected to GVDD.
