Maxim Alternatives for the Texas Instruments TPA2012

Texas Instruments TPA2012

Benefits of the MAX9701 over the TPA2012:

• Spread Spectrum Modulation reduces radiated EMI. The TPA2012 uses a fixed switching frequency.
• Higher output power into 8Ω loads (1.3W vs. the TPA2012's 1.2W).
• Higher output power into 4Ω loads (2.2W vs. the TPA2012's 1.9W).
• Lower THD+N improves sound quality (0.08% vs. the TPA2012's 0.14%).
• Higher power-supply rejection reduces noise (80dB vs. the TPA2012's 75dB).

Benefits of the TPA2012 over the MAX9701:

• The TPA2012 draws less quiescent current (6mA vs. 6.3mA).
• The TPA2012 has lower output offset (5mV vs. 10mV).
