General Description
The LM4949 is a fully integrated audio subsystem designed for stereo cell phone applications. The LM4949 combines a 2.5W
stereo Class D amplifier plus a separate 190mW stereo headphone amplifier, volume control, and input mixer into a single device.
The filterless class D amplifiers deliver 1.19W/channel into an 8Ω load with <1% THD+N from a 5V supply. The headphone amplifier
features National’s Output Capacitor-less (OCL) architecture that eliminates the output coupling capacitors required by traditional
headphone amplifiers. Additionally, the headphone amplifiers can be configured with capacitively coupled (CC)loads, or used
to drive an external headphone amplifier. When configured for an external amplifier, the VDD/2 output (VOC) controls the external amplifier’s shutdown input.
For improved noise immunity, the LM4949 features fully differential left, right and mono inputs. The three inputs can be
mixed/multiplexed to either the speaker or headphone amplifiers. The left and right inputs can be used as separate single-ended
inputs, mixing multiple stereo audio sources. The mixer, volume control, and device mode select are controlled through an
I
2C compatible interface.
Output short circuit and thermal shutdown protection prevent the device from being damaged during fault conditions. Superior
click and pop suppression eliminates audible transients on power-up/down and during shutdown.

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.
