ft2725
2X11W Stereo Class-D Audio Power Amplifier
with ALC & DRC
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
Wide supply voltage range from 3.7V to 9V
Automatic level control with adjustable threshold
High efficiency up to 89%
The ft2725 is a highly efficient 2X11W stereo Class-D
audio power amplifier with automatic level control (ALC)
and dynamic range compression (DRC). It operates
with a wide range of supply voltages from 3.7V to 9V.
When powered with 9V supply voltage, the ft2725 is
capable of delivering 11W per channel into a pair of 4Ω
speakers in a bridge-tied-load (BTL) configuration, or
15W into a single 3Ω speaker in parallel BTL (PBTL)
configuration, with 10% THD+N.
Maximum output power in Non-ALC mode
(VDD=9V, VALC>0.8*GVDD, 10% THD+N)
6W/Ch (8Ω load)
11W/Ch (4Ω load)
15W (3Ω load in PBTL configuration)
ALC output power in ALC Mode
(VDD=9V, VALC=0V, 0.3% THD+N)
The ft2725 features ALC with an adjustable threshold
for dynamic range control (DRC). The ALC constantly
monitors and safeguards the audio outputs against a
user-defined threshold voltage, preventing output
clipping distortion, excessive power dissipation, or
hazardous speaker over-load. Once an over-level
condition is detected, the ALC lowers the voltage gain
of the audio amplifiers proportionally to eliminate output
4.5W/Ch (8Ω load)
8.5W/Ch (4Ω load)
11.5W (3Ω load in PBTL configuration)
Low THD+N: 0.06%
(VDD=9V, f=1kHz, 4Ω load, Po=5W)
High PSRR: 76dB @ 1kHz
Wide ALC dynamic range: 10dB
Maximum voltage gain: 32.4dB
Volume fade-in and fade-out
clipping while maintaining
a
maximally-allowed
dynamic range of the audio outputs. The threshold
voltage of the ALC can be set at either the supply
voltage or an externally defined value.
Optional spread-spectrum (SS) audio outputs to
suppress EMI
Optional mono mode for PBTL configuration with
low-impedance audio speakers
As a filterless Class-D audio amplifier, the ft2725
features high efficiency (up to 89%), high PSRR (76dB
at 1kHz), and low EMI emissions, which reduce design
and manufacturing complexities, lower system cost and
PCB space.
Auto-recovering over-current & short-circuit
protection
Available in TSSOP-24L package
In ft2725, comprehensive protection features against
various operating faults ensure its safe and reliable
operation.
