table communication device applications. It is capable of
delivering 1.1 watt of continuous average power to an 8鈩?/div>
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 LM4879 does not require output
coupling capacitors or bootstrap capacitors, and therefore is
ideally suited for lower-power portable applications where
minimal space and power consumption are primary require-
ments.
The LM4879 features a low-power consumption global shut-
down mode, which is achieved by driving the shutdown pin
with logic low. Additionally, the LM4879 features an internal
thermal shutdown protection mechanism.
The LM4879 contains advanced pop & click circuitry which
eliminates noises which would otherwise occur during
turn-on and turn-off transitions.
The LM4879 is unity-gain stable and can be configured by
external gain-setting resistors.
