Texas Instruments TAS6422E-Q1 Digital-Input Class-D Audio Amplifier

Texas Instruments TAS6422E-Q1 Digital-Input Class-D Audio Amplifier implements a 2.1MHz PWM switching frequency enabling a cost-optimized solution in a very small PCB size. It also enables full operation down to 4.5V for start/stop events and exceptional sound quality with up to 40kHz audio bandwidth. The device adds EMI management features that include a spread-spectrum to assist in system level EMI challenges.

The output switching frequency can be set above the AM band, which eliminates AM-band interferences and reduces output filtering and cost or below the AM band to optimize efficiency. The device has a built-in load diagnostic function for detecting and diagnosing misconnected outputs as well as detection of AC-coupled tweeters to help to reduce test time during the manufacturing process. The Texas Instruments TAS6422E-Q1 Class-D audio amplifier is designed for use in automotive head units and external amplifier modules.
