SLOS739A July 2012 – March 2016 TAS5721
PRODUCTION DATA.
The TAS5721 requires two power supplies; a low voltage 3.3 V nominal for the pins DVDD, AVDD and DRVDD and a high power supply, 8 V to 24 V for the pin PVDD. There is no requirement for power up sequencing of low and high power supplies, however is recommended to put /PDN pin to low before removing the low voltage power supplies in order to protect the outputs.
The AVDD Supply is used to power the analog internal circuit of the device, and needs a well regulated and filtered 3.3-V supply voltage. The DVDD Supply is used to power the digital circuitry. DVDD needs a well regulated and filtered 3.3-V supply voltage.
The TAS5721 class-D audio amplifier requires adequate power supply decoupling to ensure the output total harmonic distortion (THD) and noise is as low as possible. A good low equivalent-series-resistance (ESR) ceramic capacitor, typically 1 µF, placed as close as possible to the device PVDD leads works best. For filtering lower frequency noise signals, a 10µF or greater capacitor placed near the audio power amplifier is recommended.
