How to Use This Manual This document contains the following chapters: Chapter 1—Introduction Chapter 2—Operation 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.
Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter provides an overview of the Texas Instruments (TI) TPA2000D4 filterless class-D audio with stereo headphone amplifier evaluation module (SLOP329). It includes a list of EVM features, a brief illustrated description of the module, and a list of EVM specifications.
Feature Highlights 1.1 Feature Highlights The TI TPA2000D4 audio amplifier evaluation module and the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform include the following features: TPA2000D4 Stereo 2-W Filterless Class-D With Stereo Headphone Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module Class-D without output filter...
The platform has room for a single TPA2000D4 evaluation module and is a convenient vehicle for demonstrating TI’s audio power amplifier and related evaluation modules. The EVMs simply plug into the platform, which...
Chapter 2 Operation The steps in this chapter can be followed to quickly prepare the TPA2000D4 filterless class-D audio amplifier EVM for use. Using the TPA2000D4 with the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier 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 TPA2000D4 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).
Insert the headphone into the onboard headphone jack (J3). Evaluation Module Preparations 11) Use jumpers GAIN0 and GAIN1 to set the gain (see Figure 2–2 and Table 2–4). Figure 2–2.

13) Adjust the signal source level as needed. 2.3 Quick Start List for Stand-Alone Follow these steps to use the TPA2000D4 EVM stand-alone or when connecting it into existing circuits or equipment. Connections to the TPA2000D4 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.
