Feature Highlights 1.1 Feature Highlights The TI TPA0243 audio amplifier evaluation module and the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform include the following features: TPA0243 mono 2-W audio power amplifier with stereo headphone drive evaluation module Single channel, bridge-tied load (BTL) or dual-channel single-ended operation Internal summing of left and right channels to generate mono signal 2 W output power into 4 Ω at 5 V, BTL 0.
Description 1.2 Description The TPA0243 audio power amplifier evaluation module is a complete 2-watt mono audio power amplifier with stereo headphone drive. It consists of the TI TPA0243 mono 2-W audio power amplifier IC along with a small number of other parts mounted on a circuit board that measures approximately 2 1/4 inches by 1 1/2 inches (Figure 1–1). Figure 1–1.
1-4 Introduction
Chapter 2 Operation Quick start lists in this chapter contain steps that can be followed to quickly prepare the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform for use with the TPA0243 audio amplifier EVM, or to connect the TPA0243 audio amplifier EVM for stand-alone operation. Using the TPA0243 audio amplifier evaluation module with the TI evaluation platform is a quick and easy way to connect power, signal and control inputs, and signal outputs to the EVM, using standard connectors.
2.1 Precautions Power Supply Input Polarity and Maximum Voltage Always ensure that the polarity and voltage of the external power connected to VCC power input connector J1, J2, and/or VDD power input connector J6 are correct. Overvoltage or reverse-polarity power applied to these terminals can open onboard soldered-in fuses and cause other damage to the platform, installed evaluation modules, and/or the power source.
2.2 Quick Start List for Platform Follow these steps when using the TPA0243 EVM with the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform (see the platform user’s guide, SLOU011, for additional details). Table 2–1 shows typical platform jumper and switch settings and numbered callouts for selected steps appear in Figure 2–1. Table 2–1.
2.3 Quick Start List for Stand-Alone Follow these steps to use the TPA0243 EVM stand-alone or when connecting it into existing circuits or equipment. Connections to the TPA0243 module header pins can be made via individual sockets, wire-wrapping, or soldering to the pins, either on the top or the bottom of the module circuit board. Numbered callouts for selected steps appear in Figure 2–2. Figure 2–2.
2.4 Stand-Alone Connection Diagrams The power supply range is 2.5 V to 5.5 V and isolated RO/MO+ and LO/MO– lines for BTL operation are required. Note that the source of any shutdown signal applied to the EVM SHUTDOWN pin must be able to sink the current flowing through the pullup resistor on the module (100 kΩ) when the pin is held low. 2.4.1 TPA0243 EVMs Connected for Stereo BTL Output Figure 2–3 shows two TPA0243 EVMs connected for stereo BTL operation. Figure 2–3.
2.4.2 TPA0243 EVM Connected for Single-Ended Stereo Headphone Output Figure 2–4 shows a TPA0243 EVM connected for single-ended stereo headphone operation. Figure 2–4.
