Description

The MAX9703/MAX9704 mono/stereo Class D audio power amplifiers provide Class AB amplifier performance with Class D efficiency, conserving board space and eliminating the need for a bulky heatsink. Using a Class D architecture, these devices deliver up to 15W while offering up to 78% efficiency. Modulation and switching schemes render the traditional Class D output filter unnecessary.

The MAX9703/MAX9704 offer two modulation schemes: a fixed-frequency mode (FFM), and a spread-spectrum mode (SSM) that reduces EMI-radiated emissions due to the modulation frequency. The device utilizes a fully differential architecture, a full bridged output, and comprehensive click-and-pop suppression.

The MAX9703/MAX9704 feature high 80dB PSRR, low 0.07% THD+N, and SNR in excess of 95dB. Short-circuit and thermal-overload protection prevent the devices from being damaged during a fault condition. The MAX9703 is available in a 32-pin TQFN (5mm x 5mm x 0.8mm) package. The MAX9704 is available in a 32-pin TQFN (7mm x 7mm x 0.8mm) package. Both devices are specified over the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
