LM4870 1.1W Audio Power Amplifier with Shutdown Mode
October 1997
LM4870 1.1W Audio Power Amplifier with Shutdown Mode
General Description
The LM4870 is a bridge-connected audio power amplifier capable of delivering 1.1W of continuous average power to an 8Ω load with less than 0.5% THD+N over the audio spectrum from a 5V power supply. Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to provide high quality output power with a minimal number of external components. Since the LM4870 does not require output coupling capacitors, bootstrap capacitors or snubber networks, it is optimally suited for low-power portable systems. The LM4870 features an externally controlled, low-power consumption shutdown mode, as well as an internal thermal shutdown protection mechanism.
