LM4931
Audio Subsystem with Mono High Efficiency
Loudspeaker and Stereo Headphone Amplifiers
General Description
The LM4931 is an integrated audio subsystem that supports
voice and digital audio functions. The LM4931 includes a
high quality stereo DAC, voice band codec, a stereo head-
phone amplifier and a high-power high efficiency mono
speaker amplifier. It is primarily designed for demanding
applications in mobile phones and other portable devices.
The LM4931 features an I
2
S serial interface for full range
audio, a 16-bit PCM bi-directional serial interface for the
voice band codec and an I
2
C/SPI compatible interface for
control. The full range music path features an SNR of 86dB
with an 18-bit 48kHz input. The headphone amplifier delivers
at least 26mW
RMS
to a 32鈩?single-ended stereo load with
less than 1% distortion (THD+N) when AV
DD
= 3.3V
DC
. The
mono speaker amplifier delivers up to 570mW
RMS
into an 8鈩?/div>
load with less than 1% distortion when AV
DD
= 3.3V
DC
.
The LM4931 employs advanced techniques to reduce power
consumption, to reduce controller overhead, and to eliminate
click and pop. Boomer audio power amplifiers were de-
signed specifically to provide high quality output power with
a minimal amount of external components. It is therefore
ideally suited for mobile phone and other low voltage appli-
cations where minimal power consumption, PCB area, and
cost are primary requirements.
