The MAX9705 3rd-generation, ultra-low EMI, mono, Class
D audio power amplifier provides Class AB performance
with Class D efficiency. The MAX9705 delivers 2.3W into
a 4Ω load and offers efficiencies above 85%. Active emissions limiting (AEL) circuitry greatly reduces EMI by
actively controlling the output FET gate transitions under
all possible transient output-voltage conditions. AEL prevents
high-frequency emissions resulting from conventional
Class D free-wheeling behavior in the presence of
an inductive load. Zero dead time (ZDT) technology
maintains state-of-the-art efficiency and THD+N performance
by allowing the output FETs to switch simultaneously
without cross-conduction. A patented spread-spectrum
modulation scheme eliminates the need for output
filtering found in traditional Class D devices. These
design concepts reduce an application's component
count and extend battery life.
The MAX9705 offers two modulation schemes: a fixed-frequency
(FFM) mode and a spread-spectrum (SSM)
mode that further reduces EMI-radiated emissions due to
the modulation frequency. The MAX9705 oscillator can
be synchronized to an external clock through the SYNC
input, allowing the switching frequency to be externally
defined. The SYNC input also allows multiple MAX9705s
to be cascaded and frequency locked, minimizing interference
due to clock intermodulation. The device utilizes
a fully differential architecture, a full-bridged output, and
comprehensive click-and-pop suppression. The gain of
the MAX9705 is set internally (MAX9705A: 6dB,
MAX9705B: 12dB, MAX9705C: 15.6dB, MAX9705D:
20dB), further reducing external component count.
The MAX9705 is available in 10-pin TDFN (3mm x 3mm x
0.8mm) and 12-bump UCSP™ (1.5mm x
2mm x 0.6mm) packages. The MAX9705 is specified over
the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
