5.6 Output low-pass filter
To avoid EMI problems, a low-pass filter can be inserted before the speaker. The cut-off
frequency of the filter should be higher than 22 kHz and much lower than the switching
frequency.
The component values of the filter vary according to the speaker impedance.
A typical LC output filter for a speaker impedance of 8 Ω and with a cut-off frequency of
27 kHz is shown in Figure 9.

A similar filter for a speaker impedance of 4 Ω and also with a cut-off frequency of 27 kHz is
shown in Figure 10:
