MAX9890
Audio Click-Pop Suppressor
General Description
Features
● 36dB Click-Pop Suppression
The MAX9890 provides click-and-pop suppression for
devices such as CODECs with test integrated headphone
amplifiers that lack a clickless/popless startup/power-up
or shutdown/power-down. The device controls the ramp-
ing of the DC bias voltage on the output-coupling capaci-
tors and the application of the audio signal to ensure that
no audible transients are present at the headphones. The
MAX9890A features a 200ms startup time for use with up
to 100μF coupling capacitors. The MAX9890B features
a 330ms startup time for use with greater than 100μF
coupling capacitors.
● 2.7V to 5.5V Single-Supply Operation
● Clickless/Popless Startup/Power-Up and
Shutdown/Power-Down
● 0.001μA Low-Power Shutdown Mode
● THD+N < 0.003% Into 32Ω
● ±8kV ESD Protected Outputs (Human Body Model)
● Requires Only One 0.1μF Capacitor to Complete the
Circuit
● Low 14μA Supply Current
The MAX9890 consumes 14μA of supply current and
0.001μA in shutdown, while contributing less than 0.003%
THD+N into a 32Ω load. ESD (Human Body Model) pro-
tection circuitry on the outputs protect the MAX9890 and
devices further up the signal chain from ESD strikes up
to ±8kV.
● Tiny Packaging
• 9-Bump UCSP (1.5mm x 1.5mm x 0.6mm)
• 8-Pin TDFN (3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm)
