LA4905
17-W, 2-Channel BTL AF High-Efficiency
Power Amplifier for Car Stereo Systems
Overview
The LA4905 is a BTL 2-channel power amplifier IC for
use in car audio systems. Increases in the number of
external components are held to a minimum by adopting
both a signal-following type switching scheme in the
amplifier鈥檚 output stage power supply, and a newly-
developed nonlinear amplifier that has nonlinear
characteristics in the signal system. The power dissipation
(thermal loss) in the actual operating range has been
reduced to about 1/2 that of earlier class B amplifier ICs.
This contributes significantly to miniaturization of the heat
sink and to reduction of heating within the set.

[LC4905]
Features
鈥?Power dissipation reduced by 50% (When average
music power is measured, and when compared to earlier
Sanyo products.)
鈥?The number of required signal follower circuits has been
reduced to a single circuit for two channels, allowing the
number of external components to be reduced.
鈥?The output is a pure analog signal: no switching noise is
output to the output lines.
鈥?Operates on an 8 to 18-V single-voltage power supply.
鈥?Full complement of built-in protection circuits (shorting
to the power supply, shorting to ground, overvoltage,
and thermal protection)
鈥?Built-in standby switch
