LN4890
Low-Cost, Mono/Stereo, 1 W Differential Audio Power Amplifiers
■ General Description
The LN4890 is an audio power amplifier primarily designed
for demanding applications in mobile phones and other
portable communication device applications. It is capable
of delivering 1 watt of continuous average power to an 8Ω
BTL load with less than 1% distortion (THD+N) from a 5V
DC power supply. Boomer audio power amplifiers were
designed specifically to provide high quality output power
with a minimal amount of external components. The
LN4890 does not require output coupling capacitors or
bootstrap capacitors, and therefore is ideally suited for
mobile phone and other low voltage applications where
minimal power consumption is a primary requirement.
The LN4890 features a low-power consumption shutdown
mode, which is achieved by driving the shutdown pin with
logic low. Additionally, the LN4890 features an internal
thermal shutdown protection mechanism. The LN4890
contains advanced pop & click circuitry which eliminates
noises which would otherwise occur during turn-on and
turn-off transitions. The LN4890 is unity-gain stable and
can be configured by external gain-setting resistors.
