MAXIM MAX9791/MAX9792 Windows Vista-Compliant Class D Speaker Amplifiers with DirectDrive Headphone Amplifiers handbook

The MAX9791 combines a stereo 2W Class D power amplifier, a stereo 180mW DirectDrive® headphone amplifier, and a 120mA low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator in a single device. The MAX9792 combines a mono 3W Class D power amplifier, a stereo 180mW DirectDrive headphone amplifier, and a 120mA LDO linear regulator in a single device. The MAX9791/MAX9792 feature Maxim’s DirectDrive headphone amplifier architecture that produces a ground-referenced output from a single supply, eliminating the need for large DC-blocking capacitors, saving cost, board space, and component height. High 107dB DC PSRR and low 0.006% THD+N ensure clean, low-distortion amplification of the audio signal. The ground sense feature senses and corrects for the voltage difference between the output jack ground and device signal ground. This feature minimizes headphone amplifier crosstalk by sensing the impedance in the ground return trace and correcting for it at the output jack. This feature also minimizes ground-loop noise when the output socket is used as a line out connection to other grounded equipment (for example, a PC connected to a home hi-fi system). The MAX9791/MAX9792 feature low RF susceptibility, allowing the amplifiers to successfully operate in close proximity to wireless applications. The MAX9791/MAX9792 Class D amplifiers feature Maxim’s spread-spectrum modulation and active emissions limiting circuitry. Industry-leading click-and-pop suppression eliminates audio noise and pops.
