LM2876 - High-Performance 40 Watt Audio Power Amplifier w/Mute

Datasheet Packaging Samples & Pricing Eval. Boards Reliability Application Notes Knowledge Base

Features
40W continuous average output power into 8
75W instantaneous peak output power capability
Signal-to-Noise Ratio >= 95 dB(min)
An input mute function
Output protection from a short to ground or to the supplies via internal current limiting circuitry
Output over-voltage protection against transients from inductive loads
Supply under-voltage protection, not allowing internal biasing to occur when |VEE| + |VCC| <= 12V, thus eliminating turn-on and turn-off transients
11-lead TO-220 package
Wide supply range 20V - 72V

General Description


The LM2876 is a high-performance audio power amplifier capable of delivering 40W of continuous average power to an 8 load with 0.1% THD+N from 20Hz-20kHz.

The performance of the LM2876, utilizing its Self Peak Instantaneous Temperature (°Ke) (SPiKe™) protection circuitry, puts it in a class above discrete and hybrid amplifiers by providing an inherently, dynamically protected Safe Operating Area (SOA). More...

General Description


The LM2876 is a high-performance audio power amplifier capable of delivering 40W of continuous average power to an 8 load with 0.1% THD+N from 20Hz-20kHz.

The performance of the LM2876, utilizing its Self Peak Instantaneous Temperature (°Ke) (SPiKe™) protection circuitry, puts it in a class above discrete and hybrid amplifiers by providing an inherently, dynamically protected Safe Operating Area (SOA). SPiKe protection means that these parts are completely safeguarded at the output against overvoltage, undervoltage, overloads, including shorts to the supplies, thermal runaway, and instantaneous temperature peaks.

The LM2876 maintains an excellent signal-to-noise ratio of greater than 95dB (min) with a typical low noise floor of 2.0µV. It exhibits extremely low THD+N values of 0.06% at the rated output into the rated load over the audio spectrum, and provides excellent linearity with an IMD (SMPTE) typical rating of 0.004%.

Reliability Metrics


Part Number Process EFR Reject EFR Sample Size PPM LTA Rejects LTA Device Hours FITS MTTF (Hours)
LM2876THV7000135800012225003346887713
LM2876TFHV7000135800012225003346887713

Note: The Early Failure Rates (EFR) were calculated as point estimate PPM based on rejects and sample size for EFR. The Long Term Failure Rates were calculated at 60% confidence using the Arrhenius equation at 0.7eV activation energy and derating the assumed stress temperature of 150°C to an application temperature of 55°C.
