LM4928
1.2 Watt Stereo Fully Differential Audio Amplifier with RF
Suppression and Shutdown Low
General Description
The LM4928 is an stereo fully differential stereo audio power
amplifier primarily designed for demanding applications in
mobile phones and other portable communication devices. It
is capable of delivering 1.2 watts of continuous average
power to a 8
load with less than 1% distortion (THD+N)
from a 5V
DC
power supply.
Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to
provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of
external components. The LM4928 does not require output
coupling capacitors or bootstrap capacitors, and therefore is
ideally suited for mobile phone and other low voltage appli-
cations where minimal power consumption is a primary re-
quirement.
The LM4928 features a low-power consumption shutdown
mode. To facilitate this, shutdown may be enabled by logic
low. Additionally, the LM4928 features an internal thermal
shutdown protection mechanism.
The LM4928 contains advanced pop & click circuitry which
eliminates noises which would otherwise occur during
turn-on and turn-off transitions.

Note 1: All voltages are measured with respect to the ground pin, unless otherwise specified.
Note 2: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC and AC electrical specifications under particular test conditions which
guarantee specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the Operating Ratings. Specifications are not guaranteed for parameters where no limit
is given, however, the typical value is a good indication of device performance.
Note 3: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by T
JMAX
,
JA
, and the ambient temperature T
A
. The maximum
allowable power dissipation is P
DMAX
= (T
JMAX
T
A
) /
JA
or the number given in Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. For the LM4928, see power
derating curve for additional information.
Note 4: Human body model, 100pF discharged through a 1.5k
resistor.
Note 5: Machine Model, 220pF 240pF discharged through all pins.
Note 6: Typicals are measured at 25C and represent the parametric norm.
Note 7: Limits are guaranteed to National's AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality Level).
Note 8: Inputs are AC terminated to GND.
Note 9: When driving 4
loads from a 5V power supply, the LM4928SD must be mounted to a circuit board with the exposed-DAP area soldered down to at least
4in
2
plane of 1oz, copper.
Note 10: Data taken with BW = 80kHz and A
V
= 1 except where specified.
Note 11: Maximum Power Dissipation (P
DMAX
) in the device occurs at an output power level significantly below full output power. P
DMAX
can be calculated using
Equation 4 shown in the Application section. It may also be obtained from the Power Dissipation graphs.
