Preface Related Documentation From Texas Instruments TI Plug-N-Play Audio Amplifier Evaluation Platform (literature number SLOU011) provides detailed information on the evaluation platform and its use with TI audio evaluation modules. TPA0253 1-W Mono Audio Power Amplifier With Headphone Drive (literature number SLOS280) This is the data sheet for the TPA0253 audio amplifier integrated circuit.
Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter provides an overview of the Texas Instruments (TI) TPA0253 audio amplifier evaluation module (SLOP270). It includes a list of EVM features, a brief description of the module illustrated with a pictorial diagram, and a list of EVM specifications.
Feature Highlights 1.1 Feature Highlights The TI TPA0253 audio amplifier evaluation module and the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform include the following features: TPA0253 mono 1-W audio power amplifier with stereo headphone drive evaluation module Single channel, bridge-tied load (BTL) or dual-channel single-ended operation Internal summing of left and right channels to generate mono signal 1 W output power into 8 Ω...
Description 1.2 Description The TPA0253 audio power amplifier evaluation module is a complete 1-watt mono audio power amplifier with stereo headphone drive. It consists of the TI TPA0253 mono 1-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).
Chapter 2 Operation Quick start lists in this chapter contain steps that can be followed to quickly prepare the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform for use with the TPA0253 audio amplifier EVM, or to connect the TPA0253 audio amplifier EVM for stand-alone operation.
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.
2.2 Quick Start List for Platform Follow these steps when using the TPA0253 EVM with the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform (see the platform user’s guide, SLOU011, for additional details). Table 2–1 shows typical platform jumper and switch settings and numbered callouts for selected steps appear in Figure 2–1. Table 2–1.
2.3 Quick Start List for Stand-Alone Follow these steps to use the TPA0253 EVM stand-alone or when connecting it into existing circuits or equipment. Connections to the TPA0253 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.
2.4 Stand-Alone Connection Diagrams The power supply range is 2.5 V to 5.5 V and isolated RO/MO+ and LO/MO– lines for BTL operation are required. Note that the source of any shutdown signal applied to the EVM SHUTDOWN pin must be able to sink the current flowing through the pullup resistor on the module (100 kΩ) when the pin is held low.
