TAS3251 Audio Amplifier

Texas Instruments' 175 W stereo, 350 W mono, ultra-HD amplifier features advanced digital signal processing (DSP)

Image of Texas Instruments' TAS3251 Audio AmplifierTexas Instruments' TAS3251 is a digital-input, high-performance, Class-D audio amplifier that enables true, premium sound quality with Class-D efficiency. The digital front-end features a high-performance Burr-Brown™ digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with integrated DSP for advanced audio processing, including SmartAmp and SmartEQ. The first high-power single-chip solution reduces overall system solution size and cost. The DSP is supported by TI's PurePath™ console graphical tuning software for quick and easy speaker tuning and control. The Class-D power stage features advanced, integrated feedback and proprietary high-speed gate drive error correction for ultra-low distortion and noise across the audio band. This device operates in AD-mode and can drive up to 2 x 175 W into a 4 Ω load and 2 x 220 W into a 3 Ω load.

Features
  • Flexible audio inputs:
    • I2S, time division multiplexing (TDM), left- and right-justified
  • Total output power at 1% and 10% total harmonic distortion plus noise (THD+N):
    • Supports bridge-tied load (BTL) and mono, parallel bridge-tied load (PBTL) output configurations
  • Wide 12 V to 36 V supply voltage operation
  • Fixed function processing function:
    • SmartEQ, crossover equalizer (EQ), dynamic EQ, SmartBass, and more
  • Advanced integrated closed-loop design:
    • Ultra-low 0.01% THD+N at 1 W into 4 Ω
    • < 0.01% THD+N to clipping
  • Control features:
    • I2C software mode control
    • Address select pin
  • Integrated protection with error reporting: undervoltage, cycle-by-cycle current limit, short circuit, clipping detection, overtemperature warning and shutdown, and direct current (DC) speaker protection
  • 90% efficient Class-D operation: 4 Ω
Applications
  • Bookshelf stereo systems
  • Professional and public address (PA) systems
  • Active crossover and two-way speakers
  • Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi speakers
  • Soundbars
