FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LM4952 is a dual audio power amplifier primarily
designed for demanding applications in flat panel
monitors and TV's. It is capable of delivering 3.1
watts per channel to a 4Ω single-ended load with less
than 1% THD+N when powered by a 12VDC power
supply.

Short Circuit Protection
Eliminating external feedback resistors, an internal,
DC-controlled, volume control allows easy and
variable gain adjustment.
APPLICATIONS
Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed
specifically to provide high quality output power with a
minimal amount of external components. The
LM4952 does not require bootstrap capacitors or
snubber circuits. Therefore, it is ideally suited for
display applications requiring high power and minimal
size.
