This section describes a typical application of TPA6166A2 with a standard audio jack with battery voltage level supply. The circuit detects what kind of device is plugged into the jack and delivers excellent audio quality.
Figure 32 shows a typical application circuit for the TPA6166A2 with a 5-terminal audio jack. Accessory Detection describes all the accessory jack configurations the TPA6166A2 automatically detects.
DESIGN PARAMETERS | VALUE |
---|---|
VDD Supply voltage | 1.7 V to 1.9 V |
MICVDD Microphone supply voltage | 2.4 V to 3.6 V |
The CPVDD and CPVSS capacitor must be at least equal in value to the flying capacitor to allow maximum charge transfer. Use low ESR (example: < 20 mΩ at 1.3 MHz) ceramic capacitors to maximize charge pump efficiency. X5R-type capacitors or better are required for best performance. Typical values are 1 µF to 2.2 µF for the charge pump capacitors.
Charge pump capacitors should be able to handle up to 2 V during normal operation. During IEC ESD strike on jack terminals, voltage on these capacitors can go as high as 12 V for 30 to 40 ns. Capacitors rated for 6.3 V or higher can typically handle such voltages for short durations without getting damaged.
Input coupling capacitors block any dc bias from the audio source and ensure maximum dynamic range. Input coupling capacitors also minimize TPA6166A2 turnon pop to an inaudible level. The input capacitors are in series with TPA6166A2 internal input resistors, creating a high-pass filter. Equation 2 calculates the high-pass filter corner frequency. The TPA6166A2 typical input impedance, RIN, is 20 kΩ.
For a given high-pass cutoff frequency, the minimum input coupling capacitor is:
Example: Select input coupling capacitor values to achieve a 20 Hz high-pass corner frequency. Equation 3 shows the input coupling capacitors must be at least 0.4 μF. Choose a 0.47-μF standard value capacitor for each TPA6166A2 input. Use X5R-type or better capacitors for best performance.
To prevent noise getting radiated from headphone, EMI filters are often included on terminals connected to the Jack. Figure 33 illustrates typical connection diagram of EMI filter implemented using ‘pi’ configuration.
High-frequency impedance of RF beads in range of 100 MHz can impact IEC ESD performance on TPA6166A2 jack outputs (LOUT, PIN2_ROUT, PIN3, and PIN4). Higher impedances change the waveform during IEC strike to make it wider, which subjects internal circuit to stress for longer duration. Use RF beads which are equal to or less than 22-Ω impedance at 100 MHz.
The high quality and low distortion of the TPA6166A2 mic preamplifier is shown in Figure 34.
