The TPA6013A4 is a stereo audio power amplifier
that drives 3 W/channel of continuous RMS power
into
a 3-Ω load. Advanced dc volume control
Maximum Volume Setting for SE Mode
minimizes external components and allows BTL
(speaker) volume control and SE (headphone)
volume control. Notebook and pocket PCs benefit
from the integrated feature set that minimizes
external components without sacrificing functionality.

Headphone Mode
To simplify design, the speaker volume level is
adjusted by applying a dc voltage to the VOLUME
terminal. Likewise, the delta between speaker volume
and headphone volume can be adjusted by applying
a dc voltage to the SEDIFF terminal. To avoid an
unexpected high volume level through the
headphones, a third terminal, SEMAX, limits the
headphone volume level when a dc voltage is
Pin-to-pin compatible with TPA6011A4 and

a smooth transition
between active and shutdown modes, a fade mode
ramps the volume up and down.
