TPA1517 is a 6W stereo audio power amplifier with thermal protection, compatible with TDA1517P, fixed gain of 20dB, high power outputs (6W per channel), mute and standby operation, available in surface mount and thermally enhanced package.
The TPA1517 is a stereo audio power amplifier that delivers up to 6 W per channel into a 4‑Ω load with low distortion. Each channel has a fixed gain of 20 dB and includes mute/standby functions for power‑sensitive applications. The device is offered in two package styles: a thermally‑enhanced surface‑mount DWP package and a 20‑pin DIP (NE) package.
The datasheet lists absolute maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, and detailed electrical characteristics such as supply voltage range, supply current, THD, SNR, input impedance, and thermal information. It also includes typical performance graphs and a notice on product warranty and usage restrictions.
