PRODUCTION DATA
In order to design an amplifier that has robust performance, passes regulatory requirements, and exhibits good audio performance, good quality decoupling capacitors should be used. In practice, use X7R in this application.
The voltage of the decoupling capacitors should be selected in accordance with good design practices. Temperature, ripple current, and voltage overshoot must be considered. This is particularly true in the selection of the 1 μF capacitor that is placed on the power supply to each full-bridge. The capacitor must withstand the voltage overshoot of the PWM switching, the heat generated by the amplifier during high power output, and the ripple current created by high power output. A minimum voltage rating of 75 V is required for use with a 42 V power supply.
