The TS4962M is a differential Class-D BTL power Oscillator
amplifier. It is able to drive up to 2.3W into a 4Ω GND
A2 B3
load and 1.4W into a 8Ω load at 5V. It achieves
outstanding efficiency (88%typ.) compared to
classical Class-AB audio amps.
The gain of the device can be controlled via two Applications
external gain-setting resistors. Pop & click

5 Application Information

5.1 Differential configuration principle

The TS4962M is a monolithic fully-differential input/output class D power amplifier. The
TS4962M also includes a common-mode feedback loop that controls the output bias value to
average it at VCC/2 for any DC common mode input voltage. This allows the device to always
have a maximum output voltage swing, and by consequence, maximize the output power.
Moreover, as the load is connected differentially compared to a single-ended topology, the
output is four times higher for the same power supply voltage.
The advantages of a full-differential amplifier are:
● High PSRR (Power Supply Rejection Ratio).
● High common mode noise rejection.
● Virtually zero pop without additional circuitry, giving an faster start-up time compared to
conventional single-ended input amplifiers.
● Easier interfacing with differential output audio DAC.
● No input coupling capacitors required thanks to common mode feedback loop.
The main disadvantage is:
● As the differential function is directly linked to external resistor mismatching, paying
particular attention to this mismatching is mandatory in order to obtain the best
performance from the amplifier.

5.2 Gain in typical application schematic

Typical differential applications are shown in Figure 1 on page 3.
In the flat region of the frequency-response curve (no input coupling capacitor effect), the
differential gain is expressed by the relation:
+ -
Out – Out 300
AV = ------------------------------- = ----------
diff + - R in
In – In

with Rin expressed in kΩ. For the remainder of this chapter, AVdiff will be referred to as AV for
simplicity’s sake.
Due to the tolerance of the internal 150kΩ feedback resistor, the differential gain will be in the
range (no tolerance on Rin):
273 327
---------- ≤ A V ≤ ----------
R in diff R in

Application Information TS4962M

5.3 Common mode feedback loop limitations

As explained previously, the common mode feedback loop allows the output DC bias voltage to
be averaged at VCC/2 for any DC common mode bias input voltage.
However, due to Vicm limitation in the input stage (see Table 2: Operating conditions on page 2),
the common mode feedback loop can ensure its role only within a defined range. This range
depends upon the values of VCC and Rin (Av). To have a good estimation of the Vicm value, we
can apply this formula (no tolerance on Rin):

V CC × R in + 2 × V IC × 150kΩ
V icm = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (V)
2 × ( R in + 150kΩ )

with
+ -
In + In
V IC = --------------------- (V)
2

and the result of the calculation must be in the range:

0.5V ≤ V icm ≤ V CC – 0.8V

Due to the +/-9% tolerance on the 150kΩ resistor, it’s also important to check Vicm in these
conditions:

V CC × R in + 2 × V IC × 136.5kΩ V CC × R in + 2 × V IC × 163.5kΩ
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ≤ V icm ≤ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
2 × ( R in + 136.5kΩ ) 2 × ( R in + 163.5kΩ )

If the result of Vicm calculation is not in the previous range, input coupling capacitors must be
used (with VCC from 2.4V to 2.5V, input coupling capacitors are mandatory).

For example:
With VCC = 3V, Rin = 150k and VIC = 2.5V, we found Vicm = 2V typically and this is lower than
3V - 0.8V = 2.2V. With 136.5kΩ we found 1.97V and with 163.5kΩ we have 2.02V. So, no input
coupling capacitors are required.

5.4 Low frequency response

If a low frequency bandwidth limitation is requested, it’s possible to use input coupling
capacitors.
In the low frequency region, Cin (input coupling capacitor) starts to have an effect. Cin forms,
with Rin, a first order high-pass filter with a -3dB cut-off frequency:
1
F CL = ------------------------------------ (Hz)
2π × R in × C in

So, for a desired cut-off frequency we can calculate Cin,

TS4962M Application Information

5.5 Decoupling of the circuit

A power supply capacitor is needed to correctly bypass the TS4962M, referred to as CS.
The TS4962M has a typical switching frequency at 250kHz and output fall and rise time about
5ns. Due to these very fast transients, careful decoupling is mandatory.
A 1µF ceramic capacitor is enough, but it must be located very close to the TS4962M in order
to avoid any extra parasitic inductance created an overly long track wire. These parasitic
inductances introduce, in relation with dI/dt, overvoltage that decreases the global efficiency
and may cause, if this parasitic inductance is too high, a TS4962M breakdown.
In addition, even if a ceramic capacitor has an adequate high frequency ESR value, its current
capability is also important. A 0603 size is a good compromise, particularly when 4Ω load is
used.
Another important parameter is the rated voltage of the capacitor. A 1µF/6.3V capacitor used at
5V, lose about 50% of its value. In fact at 5V power supply voltage, we have a decoupling value
about 0.5µF instead of 1µF. As CS has particular influence on the THD+N in the medium, high
frequency region, this capacitor variation becomes decisive. In addition, less decoupling means
higher overshoot that can be problematic if they reach the power supply AMR value (6V).

5.6 Wake-up Time: tWU

When the standby is released to set the device ON, there is a wait of about 5ms. The TS4962M
has an internal digital delay that mutes the outputs and releases them after this time in order to
avoid any pop noise.

5.7 Shutdown time

When the standby command is set, the time required to put the two output stages into high
impedance and to put the internal circuitry in shutdown mode, is about 5ms. This time is used
to decrease the gain and avoid any pop noise during shutdown.

5.8 Consumption in shutdown mode

Between the shutdown pin and GND there is an internal 300kΩ resistor. This resistor force the
TS4962M to be in shutdown when the shutdown input is leaved floating.
However, this resistor also introduces additional shutdown power consumption if the shutdown
pin voltage is not 0V.
Referring to Table 2: Operating conditions on page 2, with 0.4V shutdown voltage pin for
example, we have 0.4V/300kΩ = 1.3µA in typical (0.4V/273kΩ = 1.46µA in maximum) to add to
the shutdown current specified in the tables in Table 4 on page 4.

5.9 Single ended input configuration

It's possible to use the TS4962M in a single-ended input configuration. However, input coupling
capacitors are needed in this configuration. The following schematic shows a single ended
input typical application.

In the event that multiple single-ended inputs are summed, it is important that the impedance
on both TS4962M inputs (In- and In+) are equal.

In general, for mixed situations (single-ended and differential inputs) we must use the same
rule: equalize impedance on both TS4962M inputs.

5.10 Output filter considerations

The TS4962M is designed to operate without an output filter. However, due to very sharp
transients on TS4962M output, EMI radiated emissions may cause some standard compliance
issues.
These EMI standard compliance issues can appear if the distance between the TS4962M
outputs and loudspeaker terminal are long (typically more than 50mm, or 100mm in both
directions, to the speaker terminals). As each PCB layout and internal equipment device are
different for each configuration, it is difficult to provide a one-size-fits-all solution.
However, to decrease the probability of EMI issues, there are several simple rules to follow:
● Reduce, as much as possible, the distance between the TS4962M output pins and the
speaker terminals.
● Uses ground plane for “shielding” sensitive wire.
● Place, as close as possible to the TS4962M and in series with each output, a ferrite bead
with a rated current at minimum 2A and impedance greater than 50Ω at frequencies
>30MHz. If, after testing, these ferrite beads are not necessary, replace them by a short-
circuit. Murata BLM18EG221SN1 or BLM18EG121SN1 are possible examples.
● Allow a footprint to place, if necessary, a capacitor to short perturbations to ground (see
following schematic).

about 100pF

Gnd

In the case where distance between TS4962M's output and speaker terminals is high, it's
possible to have low frequency EMI issues due to the fact that the typical operating frequency is
250kHz.
In this configuration, utilization of the output filter represented in page 3 and close of the
TS4962M is necessary.
