LM4953
Ground-Referenced, Ultra Low Noise, Ceramic Speaker
Driver
General Description
The LM4953 is an audio power amplifier designed for driving
Ceramic Speaker in portable applications. When powered by
a 3.6V supply, it is capable of forcing 12.6Vpp across a 2碌F
+ 30鈩?bridge-tied-load (BTL) with less than 1% THD+N.
Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to
provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of
external components. The LM4953 does not require boot-
strap capacitors, or snubber circuits. Therefore it is ideally
suited for display applications requiring high power and mini-
mal size.
The LM4953 features a low-power consumption shutdown
mode. Additionally, the LM4953 features an internal thermal
shutdown protection mechanism.
The LM4953 contains advanced pop & click circuitry that
eliminates noises which would otherwise occur during
turn-on and turn-off transitions.
The LM4953 is unity-gain stable and can be configured by
external gain-setting resistors.
