PAM8304
3W MONO CLASS-D AUDIO AMPLIFIER
Description
The PAM8304 is a mono, filter-less, Class-D amplifier with high SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) and differential input that helps eliminate noise. The PAM8304 supports 2.8V to 6V operation, which makes it ideal for up to 4-cell alkaline battery applications. The PAM8304 is capable of driving speaker loads as low as 3Ω with a 5V supply, maximizing the output power.
The device’s over 90% efficiency and small PCB area make the PAM8304 Class-D amplifier ideal for portable applications. The output uses a filter-less architecture, minimizing the number of external components in the PCB area whilst providing a high-performance, simple, and lower cost system.
The PAM8304 features short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown, and undervoltage lockout.
