PRODUCTION DATA
The PBTL mode of operation is used to describe an operation in which the two outputs of the device are placed in parallel with one another to increase the power-sourcing capabilities of the device. On the output side of the TAS5827 device, the summation of the devices can be done before the filter in a configuration called Pre-Filter Parallel Bridge Tied Load (PBTL). However, the two outputs can be required to merge together after the inductor portion of the output filter. Doing so does require two additional inductors, but allows smaller, less expensive inductors to be used because the current is divided between the two inductors. The process is called Post-Filter PBTL. On the input side of the TAS5827 device, the input signal to the PBTL amplifier is the left frame of I2S or TDM data.
