General Description
The MAX9879 bines a high-efficiency stereo Class D audio power amplifier with a stereo capacitor-less Direct Drive® headphone amplifier. Maxim’s filterless class D amplifiers with active emissions limiting technology provide Class AB performance with Class D efficiency. The Class D power amplifier delivers up to 715m W from a 3.7V supply into an 8Ω load with 88% efficiency to extend battery life. The filterless modulation scheme bined with active emission limiting circuitry and spread-spectrum modulation greatly reduces EMI while eliminating the need for output filtering used in traditional Class D devices. The headphone amplifier delivers up to 58m W from a 3.7V supply into a 16 Ω load. Maxim’s patented Direct Drive architecture produces a ground-referenced output from a single supply, eliminating the need for large DC-blocking capacitors, saving cost, space and ponent height. The device utilizes a user-defined input architecture, three preamplifier gain settings, an input mixer, volume control, prehensive click-and-pop...
