8 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The amplifier system can be switched in three operating


modes via the mode select pin:
The combination of the TDA8926J and the TDA8929T
produces a two-channel audio power amplifier system • Standby: with a very low supply current
using the class-D technology (see Fig.4). • Mute: the amplifiers are operational, but the audio signal
at the output is suppressed
In the TDA8929T controller device the analog audio input
signal is converted into a digital Pulse Width Modulation • On: amplifier fully operational with output signal.

for driving the low-pass filter and the loudspeaker load. It For suppressing pop noise the amplifier will remain

A second-order low-pass filter converts the PWM signal
into an analog audio signal across the loudspeaker. Figure 3 shows an example of a switching circuit for driving
pin MODE.
For a description of the power stage see the specification
of the TDA8926.
The TDA8926 can be used for an output power of
2 × 50 W. The TDA8927 should be used for a higher

are designed to have very short and straight connections
between the packages. For optimum performance the
interconnections between the packages must be as short
as possible.
Using this two-chip set an audio system with two
independent amplifier channels with high output power,
high efficiency (90%) for the system, low distortion and a
low quiescent current is obtained. The amplifiers channels
can be connected in the following configurations:
• Mono Bridge-Tied Load (BTL) amplifier
• Stereo Single-Ended (SE) amplifier.

8.3 Protections
The controller is provided with two diagnostic inputs. One
or both pins can be connected to the diagnostic output of
one or more power stages.

8.3.1 DIAGNOSTIC TEMPERATURE


A LOW level on pin DIAGTMP will immediately force both
pins EN1 and EN2 to a LOW level. The power stage shuts
down and the temperature is expected to drop. If
pin DIAGTMP goes HIGH, pins EN1 and EN2 will
immediately go HIGH and normal operation will be
maintained.
Temperature hysteresis, a delay before enabling the
system again, is arranged in the power stage. Internally
there is a pull-up resistance to 5 V at the diagnostic input
of the controller. Because the diagnostic output of the
power stage is an open-drain output, diagnostic lines can
be connected together (wired-OR). It should be noted that
the TDA8929T itself has no temperature protection.

power stage to one of the supply lines, before the
demodulation filter, it will also be detected by the start-up
safety test. Practical use from this test feature can be
found in detection of short-circuits on the printed-circuit

start-up sequence, and not during normal operating.

14.1 Minimum pulse width


The minimum obtainable pulse width of the PWM output signal of a class-D system, sets the maximum output voltage
swing after the demodulation filter and also the maximum output power. Delays in the power stages are the main cause
for the minimum pulse width being not equal to zero. The TDA8926 and TDA8927 power stages have a minimum pulse
width of tW(min) = 220 ns (typical). Using the TDA8929T controller, the effective minimum pulse is reduced by a factor of
two during clipping. For the calculation of the maximum output power at clipping the effective minimum pulse width during
clipping is 0.5tW(min).
For the practical useable minimum and maximum duty factor (δ) which determines the maximum output power:

R21 and R22 are only necessary in BTL applications with asymmetrical supply.
BTL: remove R6, R7, C23, C26 and C27 and close J5 and J6.
C22 and C23 influence the low-pass frequency response and should be tuned with the real load (loudspeaker).
Inputs floating or inputs referenced to QGND (close J1 and J4) or referenced to VSS (close J2 and J3) for an input signal ground reference.

17.5 Suitability of surface mount IC packages for wave and reflow soldering methods

SOLDERING METHOD
PACKAGE
WAVE REFLOW(1)
BGA, HBGA, LFBGA, SQFP, TFBGA not suitable suitable
HBCC, HLQFP, HSQFP, HSOP, HTQFP, HTSSOP, HVQFN, SMS not suitable(2) suitable
PLCC(3), SO, SOJ suitable suitable
LQFP, QFP, TQFP not recommended(3)(4) suitable
SSOP, TSSOP, VSO not recommended(5) suitable
Notes
1. All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the maximum
temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or external package
cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn effect). For details, refer to the
Drypack information in the “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages; Section: Packing Methods”.
2. These packages are not suitable for wave soldering as a solder joint between the printed-circuit board and heatsink
(at bottom version) can not be achieved, and as solder may stick to the heatsink (on top version).
3. If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave direction.
The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
4. Wave soldering is only suitable for LQFP, TQFP and QFP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.8 mm;
it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm.
5. Wave soldering is only suitable for SSOP and TSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.65 mm; it is
definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.
