FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LM4990 is an audio power amplifier primarily
designed for demanding applications in mobile
phones and other portable communication device
applications. It is capable of delivering 1.25 watts of
continuous average power to an 8Ω BTL load and 2
watts of continuous average power (NGZ and DGQ
only) to a 4Ω BTL load with less than 1% distortion
(THD+N+N) from a 5VDC power supply.

2.2 - 5.5V Operation
Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed
specifically to provide high quality output power with a
minimal amount of external components. The
LM4990 does not require output coupling capacitors
or bootstrap capacitors, and therefore is ideally suited
for mobile phone and other low voltage applications
where minimal power consumption is a primary
requirement.
No Output Coupling Capacitors, Snubber
Networks or Bootstrap Capacitors Required

Unity-Gain Stable
External Gain Configuration Capability
User Selectable Shutdown High or Low Logic
Level
The LM4990 features a low-power consumption
shutdown mode. To facilitate this, Shutdown may be
enabled by either logic high or low depending on
mode selection. Driving the shutdown mode pin either
high or low enables the shutdown pin to be driven in
a likewise manner to enable shutdown.
APPLICATIONS
•
•
•
Mobile Phones
PDAs
Portable Electronic Devices
The LM4990 contains advanced pop & click circuitry
which eliminates noise which would otherwise occur
during turn-on and turn-off transitions.
