LM4863
Dual 2.2W Audio Amplifier Plus Stereo Headphone
Function
General Description
Key Specifications
n PO at 1% THD+N
The LM4863 is a dual bridge-connected audio power ampli-
fier which, when connected to a 5V supply, will deliver 2.2W
to a 4Ω load (Note 1) or 2.5W to a 3Ω load (Note 2) with less
than 1.0% THD+N. In addition, the headphone input pin
allows the amplifiers to operate in single-ended mode when
driving stereo headphones.

Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to
provide high quality output power from a surface mount
package while requiring few external components. To sim-
plify audio system design, the LM4863 combines dual bridge
speaker amplifiers and stereo headphone amplifiers on one
chip.

Features
n Stereo headphone amplifier mode
n “Click and pop” suppression circuitry
n Unity-gain stable
The LM4863 features an externally controlled, low-power
consumption shutdown mode, a stereo headphone amplifier
mode, and thermal shutdown protection. It also utilizes cir-
cuitry to reduce “clicks and pops” during device turn-on.
n Thermal shutdown protection circuitry
Note 1: An LM4863MTE or LM4863LQ that has been properly mounted to
a circuit board will deliver 2.2W into 4Ω. The other package options for the
LM4863 will deliver 1.1W into 8Ω. See the Application Information sections
for further information concerning the LM4863MTE and LM4863LQ.

Marketing.
Note 2: An LM4863MTE or LM4863LQ that has been properly mounted to a
circuit board and forced-air cooled will deliver 2.5W into 3Ω.
Applications
