Description The LM48312 is a single supply, high efficiency, mono, 2.6W, filterless switching audio amplifier. The LM48312 features National’s
Enhanced Emissions Suppression (E
2S) system, that features a unique patented ultra low EMI, spread spectrum, PWM architecture, that significantly reduces RF
emissions while preserving audio quality and efficiency. The E
2S system improves battery life, reduces external component count, board area consumption, and system cost, simplifying design.
The LM48312 is designed to meet the demands of portable multimedia devices. Operating from a single 5V supply, the device
is capable of delivering 2.6W of continuous output power to a 4Ω load with less than 10% THD+N. Flexible power supply requirements
allow operation from 2.4V to 5.5V. The LM48312 features both a spread spectrum modulation scheme, and an advanced, patented
edge rate control (ERC) architecture that significantly reduces emissions, while maintaining high quality audio reproduction
(THD+N = 0.03%) and high efficiency (η = 88%).
The LM48312 features high efficiency compared to conventional Class AB amplifiers, and other low EMI Class D amplifiers.
When driving an 8Ω speaker from a 5V supply, the device operates with 88% efficiency at PO = 1W. The LM48312 features five gain settings, selected through a single logic input, further reducing solution size. A
low power shutdown mode reduces supply current consumption to 0.01µA.
Advanced output short circuit protection with auto-recovery prevents the device from being damaged during fault conditions.
Superior click and pop suppression eliminates audible transients on power-up/down and during shutdown.
