TPA3118 Mono Amplifier - Overview

The main Voice Recorder/Playback IC is TPA3118.

 

TPA3118 device is a highly efficient Class-D audio amplifier with integrated 120mΩ that allows output currents up to 7.5A. The device can be configured for either master or slave operation by using the SYNC pin, which helps to prevent audible beats and prevent audible beats noise. An internal ADC is used to detect the 8 input states. The first four stages set the GAIN in Master mode in gains of 20, 26, 32, 36 dB respectively, while the next four stages set the GAIN in Slave Mode In gains of 20, 26, 32, 36 dB respectively.

 

TPA3118 employs a shutdown mode of operation designed to reduce supply current to the absolute minimum level during periods of non-use for power conservation.

 

The TPA3118 contains a complete set of protection circuits carefully designed to make system design efficient as well as to protect the device against any kind of permanent failures due to short circuits, overload,over-temperature, and under-voltage.

 

Interfacing Diagram

The interfacing is quite easy. Connect Power along with an audio input. Users can connect the speakers across the amplifier output directly.
