TI audio evaluation modules. TPA0213 2-W MONO AUDIO POWER AMPLIFIER WITH HEADPHONE DRIVE (literature number SLOS276) This is the data sheet for the TPA0213 audio amplifier integrated circuit. FCC Warning This equipment is intended for use in a laboratory test environment only. It...
Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter provides an overview of the Texas Instruments (TI) TPA0213 audio amplifier evaluation module (SLOP266). It includes a list of EVM features, a brief description of the module illustrated with a diagram, and a list of EVM specifications.
Feature Highlights 1.1 Feature Highlights The TI TPA0213 audio amplifier evaluation module and the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform include the following features: TPA0213 mono 2-W audio power amplifier evaluation module Single channel, bridge-tied load (BTL) or dual-channel single-ended operation 2 W output power into 4 Ω...
1.2 Description The TPA0213 audio power amplifier evaluation module is a complete, 2-watt mono audio power amplifier. It consists of the TI TPA0213 mono 2-W audio power amplifier IC along with a small number of other parts mounted on a circuit board that measures approximately 2 1/4 inches by 1 1/2 inches (Figure 1–1).
Operation The quick start lists in this chapter contain steps that can be followed to quickly prepare the TPA0213 mono audio amplifier EVM for use either with the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform or for stand-alone operation. Using the EVM with the TI evaluation platform is a quick and easy way to connect power, signal and control inputs, and signal outputs to the EVM, using standard connectors.
Precautions 2.1 Precautions Power Supply Input Polarity and Maximum Voltage Always ensure that the polarity and voltage of the external power connected to V power input connector J1, J2, and/or V power input connector J6 are correct. Overvoltage or reverse-polarity power applied to these terminals can open onboard soldered-in fuses and cause other damage to the platform, installed evaluation modules, and/or the power source.
1) Ensure that all external power sources are set to OFF and that the platform power switch S1 is set to OFF. 2) Install a TPA0213 module in platform socket U2, taking care to align the module pins correctly. 3) Use switch S2 to select or bypass the signal conditioning EVM (U1).

Quick Start List for Stand-Alone 2.3 Quick Start List for Stand-Alone Follow these steps to use the TPA0213 EVM stand-alone or when connecting it into existing circuits or equipment. Connections to the TPA0213 module header pins can be made via individual sockets, wire-wrapping, or soldering to the pins, either on the top or the bottom of the module circuit board.
Quick Start List for Stand-Alone Evaluation module preparations 6) Set the EVM jumpers as shown in Table 2–5. Table 2–5. Typical TPA0213 EVM Jumper Settings TPA0213 Note: ON = Shunt installed OFF = Open EVM jumpers J1 and J2 allow the MONO-IN input pin to be driven from either the MIN test point or from a combination of the left and right channel inputs.
