TPS4100
FOUR CHANNEL BRIDGED OUTPUT POWER STAGE
Revision 2.5 - February 2005
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TPS4100 is a 4 channel bridged (16 power transistors) output power stage. The TPS4100
accepts 5V CMOS logic signals from a Class-T processor, such as TCD6001, to create a high
fidelity 4 channel audio amplifier. The TPS4100 has been designed specifically for automotive head
unit applications operating on a single 10-26V supply.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur.
See the table below for Operating Conditions.
Note 2: The input section pins (pins 1-11) should not be connected to voltages over 5.5V with respect to pins 13 and 14
(AGND). Please note that pin 12 is an output and can be damaged if a voltage is forced externally.
Note 3: Human body model, 100pF discharged through a 1.5KΩ resistor.
Note 4: Machine model, 220pF – 240pF discharged through all pins.

Note 7: The TPS4100 heat sinking in AM Mode must be increased (as compared to Class-T mode) to sustain the
typical output numbers. This is due to the lower efficiency of Class B output stage operation.

DESCRIPTION
INPUT (L) Logic input, ACTIVE LOW. Setting SLEEP to low puts the TPS4100 in sleep
mode. Input range is 0 to 5V with 3.3V compliant inputs.
INPUT (L) Non-inverted switching modulator inputs.
INPUT (L) Inverted switching modulator inputs.
INPUT (L) Logic Input, ACTIVE LOW. Setting MUTE to low puts the device in mute mode.
Typically driven by external power supply or microcontroller. Input range is 0 to
5V with 3.3V compliant inputs.
INPUT (L) Logic input, ACTIVE HIGH. Enables Analog Mode operation. Typically driven
by Tripath controller. Input range is 0 to 5V with 3.3V compliant inputs.
