APA2176/2176A
270mW Stereo Cap-Free Headphone Driver
Features
General Description
The APA2176/2176A is a stereo, fixed gain, and cap-free
headphone driver which is available in TQFN4x4 20-pin,
TQFN3x3 16-pin (APA2176A) or TSSOP-16 package. Dual
supply voltage provides higher efficiency and better power
ripple rejection.
The APA2176/2176A is designed with ground-reference
output and no need the output capacitors for DC blocking.
The advantages of eliminating the output capacitor are
saving the cost, PCB’ space, and component height.
s
The built-in gain setting can minimize the external com-
ponent counts and save the PCB space. High PSRR pro-
vides increased immunity to noise and RF rectification. In
addition to these features, a fast start-up time and small
package size make the APA2176/2176A an ideal choice
for portable multimedia devices.
Moreover, the APA2176/2176A is also equipped other
features. For example, at THD+N=1%, it is capable of
driving 200mW at V
DD
=3.3V, PV
DD
=5.0V into 16Ω. In
addition, it provides thermal and short circuit protections.

Note: ANPEC lead-free products contain molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin plate termination finish; which
are fully compliant with RoHS. ANPEC lead-free products meet or exceed the lead-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D for
MSL classification at lead-free peak reflow temperature. ANPEC defines “Green” to mean lead-free (RoHS compliant) and halogen
free (Br or Cl does not exceed 900ppm by weight in homogeneous material and total of Br and Cl does not exceed 1500ppm by
weight).
