The TPA032D02 is a monolithic power IC stereo audio amplifier that operates in extremely efficient Class-D operation, using the high switching speed of power DMOS transistors to replicate the analog input signal through high-frequency switching of the output stage. This allows the TPA032D02 to be configured as a bridge-tied load (BTL) amplifier capable of delivering up to 10 W of continuous average power into a 4- load at 0.5% THD+N from a 12-V power supply in the high-fidelity audio frequency range (20 Hz to 20 kHz). A BTL configuration eliminates the need for external coupling capacitors on the output. A chip-level shutdown control is provided to limit total supply current to 20 A, making the device ideal for battery-powered applications.
