If the supply voltage drops below ±12.5 V, the
undervoltage protection circuit is activated and the system
will shut down correctly. If the internal clock is used, this
switch-off will be silent and without plop noise. When the
supply voltage rises above the threshold level, the system
is restarted again after 100 ms. If the supply voltage
exceeds ±32 V the overvoltage protection circuit is
activated and the power stages will shut down. They are
re-enabled as soon as the supply voltage drops below the
threshold level.
An additional balance protection circuit compares the
positive (V ) and the negative (V
DD
is triggered if the voltage difference between them
exceeds a certain level. This level depends on the sum of
both supply voltages. An expression for the unbalanced
threshold level is as follows: V
Example: With a symmetrical supply of ±30 V, the
protection circuit will be triggered if the unbalance exceeds
approximately 9 V; see Section 16.7.

Differential audio inputs

For a high common mode rejection ratio and a maximum
of flexibility in the application, the audio inputs are fully
differential. By connecting the inputs anti-parallel the
phase of one of the channels can be inverted, so that a
load can be connected between the two output filters.
In this case the system operates as a mono BTL amplifier
and with the same loudspeaker impedance an
approximately four times higher output power can be
obtained.
The input configuration for a mono BTL application is
illustrated in Fig.6; for more information see Chapter 16.
In the stereo single-ended configuration it is also
recommended to connect the two differential inputs in
anti-phase. This has advantages for the current handling
of the power supply at low signal frequencies.
