PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPA31xxD2 input stage is a fully differential input stage and the input impedance changes with the gain setting from 9 kΩ at 36 dB gain to 60 kΩ at 20 dB gain. Table 1 lists the values from min to max gain. The tolerance of the input resistor value is ±20% so the minimum value will be higher than 7.2 kΩ. The inputs must be AC-coupled to minimize the output dc-offset and ensure correct ramping of the output voltages during power-ON and power-OFF. The input ac-coupling capacitor together with the input impedance forms a high-pass filter with the following cut-off frequency:
If a flat bass response is required down to 20 Hz the recommended cut-off frequency is a tenth of that, 2 Hz. Table 2 lists the recommended ac-couplings capacitors for each gain step. If a –3-dB capacitor is accepted at 20 Hz 10 times lower capacitors can used – for example, a 1-µF capacitor can be used.
GAIN | INPUT IMPEDANCE | INPUT CAPACITANCE | HIGH-PASS FILTER |
---|---|---|---|
20 dB | 60 kΩ | 1.5 µF | 1.8 Hz |
26 dB | 30 kΩ | 3.3 µF | 1.6 Hz |
32 dB | 15 kΩ | 5.6 µF | 2.3 Hz |
36 dB | 9 kΩ | 10 µF | 1.8 Hz |
The input capacitors used should be a type with low leakage, such as quality electrolytic, tantalum, or ceramic capacitors. If a polarized type is used the positive connection should face the input pins which are biased to 3 Vdc.
