Features • SPiKe Protection • Minimal amount of external components necessary • Quiet fade-in/out mute mode • Non-Isolated 15-lead TO-220 package • Wide Supply Range 20V - 78V Description The LM4766 is a stereo audio amplifier capable of delivering typically 40W per channel with the non-isolated "T" package and 30W per channel with the isolated "TF" package of continuous average output power into an 8 load with less than 0.1% (THD+N). The performance of the LM4766, utilizing its Self Peak Instantaneous Temperature (°Ke) (SPiKe™) Protection Circuitry, places 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 safeguarded at the output against overvoltage, undervoltage, overloads, including thermal runaway and instantaneous temperature peaks. Each amplifier within the LM4766 has an independent smooth transition fade-in/out mute that minimizes output pops. The IC's extremely low noise floor at 2µV and its extremely low THD+N value of 0.06% at the rated power make the LM4766 optimum for high-end stereo TVs or minicomponent systems. Key Specification THD+N at 1kHz at 2 x 30W continuous average output power into 8 0.1% (max) THD+N at 1kHz at continuous average output power of 2 x 30W into 8 0.009% (typ) Applications • High-end stereo TVs • Component stereo • Compact stereo

Reliability Metrics

Part Number	Process	EFR Reject	EFR Sample Size	PPM	LTA Rejects	LTA Device Hours	FITS	MTTF (Hours)
LM4766T	HV700	0	13850	0	0	1492500	3	423500950
LM4766TF	HV700	0	13850	0	0	1492500	3	423500950

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.
