9.3.4 SPEAKERGUARD Automatic Gain Limit, AGL

The TPA3140D2 has a built-in SpeakerGuard AGL to limit excessive output voltage to a non clipping output signal. When an excessive level input signal is sent to TPA3140D2, the SpeakerGuard AGL will automatically reduce the amplifier gain to maintain maximum unclipped output signal to preserve high audio quality and to protect the attached speaker from excessive power. The AGL works with a fast attack speed and a slower release speed to achieve maximum protection and a minimum number of audible artifacts.

When the input level multiplied by the TPA3140D2 closed loop gain exceeds the limiter threshold set by the LIMTHRES pin voltage, the TPA3140D2 closed loop gain is reduced by a single or by multiple 0.5-dB steps until the output signal voltage gets below the level set by the LIMTHRES pin voltage, or if a –12.0-dB gain reduction limit is reached. When the output voltage gets below the release threshold, the TPA3140D2 closed loop gain is increased by a single or by multiple 0.5-dB steps until the release threshold is reached, or the closed loop gain is at its nominal closed loop gain level. The AGL gain adjustment is applied with a ramp speed selectable by the LIMRATE pin setting.
