Windows Vista-Compliant Class D Speaker
Amplifiers with DirectDrive Headphone Amplifiers
1/MAX792
General Description
Features
The MAX9791 combines a stereo 2W Class D power
amplifier, a stereo 180mW DirectDrive® headphone
amplifier, and a 120mA low-dropout (LDO) linear regu-
lator in a single device. The MAX9792 combines a
mono 3W Class D power amplifier, a stereo 180mW
DirectDrive headphone amplifier, and a 120mA LDO
linear regulator in a single device.
o Windows Vista® Premium Compliant
o Low EMI Filterless Class D Speaker Amplifiers
Pass EN55022B Emissions Limit with 30cm of
Speaker Cable
o 180mW DirectDrive Headphone Amplifier
o Excellent RF Immunity
o Integrated 120mA LDO
o Eliminates Headphone Ground Loop Noise
o Wake-on-Beep Function
o Click-and-Pop Suppression
o Short-Circuit and Thermal-Overload Protection
The MAX9791/MAX9792 feature Maxim’s DirectDrive
headphone amplifier architecture that produces a
ground-referenced output from a single supply, eliminat-
ing the need for large DC-blocking capacitors, saving
cost, board space, and component height. High 107dB
DC PSRR and low 0.006% THD+N ensure clean, low-
distortion amplification of the audio signal.
The ground sense feature senses and corrects for the
voltage difference between the output jack ground and
device signal ground. This feature minimizes head-
phone amplifier crosstalk by sensing the impedance in
the ground return trace and correcting for it at the out-
put jack. This feature also minimizes ground-loop noise
when the output socket is used as a line out connection
to other grounded equipment (for example, a PC con-
nected to a home hi-fi system).
The MAX9791/MAX9792 feature low RF susceptibility,
allowing the amplifiers to successfully operate in close
proximity to wireless applications. The MAX9791/
MAX9792 Class D amplifiers feature Maxim’s spread-
spectrum modulation and active emissions limiting cir-
cuitry. Industry-leading click-and-pop suppression
eliminates audible transients during power-up and shut-
down cycles.

The MAX9791/MAX9792 wake-on-beep feature wakes
up the speaker and headphone amplifiers when a qual-
ified beep signal is detected at the BEEP input.
For maximum flexibility, separate speaker and head-
phone amplifier control inputs provide independent
shutdown of the speaker and headphone amplifiers.
Additionally the LDO can be enabled independently of
the audio amplifiers.

The MAX9791/MAX9792 feature spread-spectrum mod-
ulation and active emission limiting circuitry that offers
significant improvements to switch-mode amplifier tech-
nology. These devices offer Class AB performance with
Class D efficiency in a minimal board-space solution.
Detailed Description
The MAX9791 combines a stereo 2W Class D power
amplifier, a stereo 175mW DirectDrive headphone
amplifier, and a 120mA LDO linear regulator in a single
device. The MAX9792 combines a mono 3W Class D
power amplifier, a stereo 175mW DirectDrive head-
phone amplifier, and a 120mA LDO linear regulator in a
single device.
The headphone amplifiers use Maxim’s DirectDrive
architecture to eliminate the bulky output DC-blocking
capacitors required by traditional headphone ampli-
fiers. A charge pump inverts the positive supply
(HPVDD) to create a negative supply (CPVSS). The
headphone amplifiers operate from these bipolar sup-
plies with their outputs biased about GND. The bene-
fit of the GND bias is that the amplifier outputs no
The MAX9791/MAX9792 feature wake-on-beep detec-
tion, comprehensive click-and-pop suppression, low-
power shutdown mode, and excellent RF immunity.
These devices incorporate an integrated LDO that
serves as a clean power supply for CODEC or other cir-
cuits. The MAX9791/MAX9792 are Windows Vista
Premium compliant. See Table 1 for a comparison of the
Windows Vista Premium specifications and MAX9791/
MAX9792 specifications.

EFFICIENCY vs. IDEAL
CLASS AB EFFICIENCY
The MAX9791/MAX9792 amplifiers feature an under-
voltage lockout that prevents operation from an insuffi-
cient power supply and click-and-pop suppression that
eliminates audible transients on startup and shutdown.
The amplifiers include thermal overload and short-cir-
cuit protection.

MAX9791
Class D Speaker Amplifier
The MAX9791/MAX9792 integrate a filterless class D
amplifier that offers much higher efficiency than class AB
amplifiers. The high efficiency of a Class D amplifier is
due to the switching operation of the output stage tran-
sistors. In a Class D amplifier, the output transistors act
as current steering switches and consume negligible
additional power. Any power loss associated with the
Class D output stage is mostly due to the I2R loss of the
MOSFET on-resistance and quiescent current overhead.

OUTPUT POWER (W)
Figure 1. MAX9791 Efficiency vs. Class AB Efficiency
The theoretical best efficiency of a linear amplifier is
78%, however, that efficiency is only exhibited at peak
output power. Under normal operating levels (typical
music reproduction levels), efficiency falls below 45%,
whereas the MAX9791/MAX9792 exhibit 67% efficiency
under the same conditions (Figure 1).
Ultra-Low EMI Filterless Output Stage
In traditional Class D amplifiers, the high dv/dt of the
rising and falling edge transitions resulted in increased
electromagnetic-interference (EMI) emissions, which
required the use of external LC filters or shielding to
meet EN55022B EMI regulation standards. Limiting the
dv/dt normally results in decreased efficiency. Maxim’s
active emissions limiting circuitry actively limits the
dv/dt of the rising and falling edge transitions, providing
reduced EMI emissions while maintaining up to 83%
efficiency.

In addition to active emission limiting, the MAX9791/
MAX9792 feature spread-spectrum modulation that flat-
tens the wideband spectral components. Proprietary
techniques ensure that the cycle-to-cycle variation of the
switching period does not degrade audio reproduction
or efficiency (see the Typical Operating Characteristics).
In spread-spectrum modulation mode, the switching fre-
quency varies randomly by 15kHz around the center
frequency (530kHz). The effect is to reduce the peak
energy at harmonics of the switching frequency. Above
10MHz, the wideband spectrum looks like noise for EMI
purposes (see Figure 2).

DD
DirectDrive AMPLIFIER BIASING SCHEME
Figure 3. Traditional Amplifier Output vs. MAX9791/MAX9792
DirectDrive Output
Maxim’s DirectDrive architecture uses a charge pump
to create an internal negative supply voltage. This
allows the headphone outputs of the MAX9791/
MAX9792 to be biased at GND while operating from a
single supply (Figure 3). Without a DC component,
there is no need for the large DC-blocking capacitors.
Instead of two large (220µF, typ) capacitors, the
MAX9791/MAX9792 charge pump requires two small
1µF ceramic capacitors, conserving board space,
reducing cost, and improving the frequency response
of the headphone amplifier.
Speaker Current Limit
When the output current of the speaker amplifier
exceeds the current limit (2A, typ) the MAX9791/
MAX9792 disable the outputs for approximately 100µs.
At the end of 100µs, the outputs are re-enabled. If the
fault condition still exists, the MAX9791/MAX9792 con-
tinue to disable and re-enable the outputs until the fault
condition is removed.
The MAX9791/MAX9792 feature a low-noise charge
pump. The nominal switching frequency of 530kHz is
well beyond the audio range, and thus does not inter-
fere with audio signals. The switch drivers feature a
controlled switching speed that minimizes noise gener-
ated by turn-on and turn-off transients. By limiting the
switching speed of the charge pump, the di/dt noise
caused by the parasitic trace inductance is minimized.
DirectDrive Headphone Amplifier
Traditional single-supply headphone amplifiers bias the
outputs at a nominal DC voltage (typically half the sup-
ply). Large coupling capacitors are needed to block
this DC bias from the headphone. Without these capac-
itors, a significant amount of DC current flows to the
headphone, resulting in unnecessary power dissipation
and possible damage to both headphone and head-
phone amplifier.

Figure 5. Crosstalk vs. Ground Resistance
Common-Mode Sense
Windows Vista-compliant platforms are restricted to only
115mΩ of ground return impedance. If the headphone
jack ground is connected close to the audio device
ground using a solid ground plane, the return path resis-
tance can be quite low. However, it is often necessary to
locate some jacks far from the audio device. The
MAX9791/MAX9792 COM and SENSE inputs allow the
headphone jack to be placed further away from the
device without degrading crosstalk performance.
The headphone amplifier output impedance, trace
resistance, and contact resistance of the jack are
grouped together to represent the source resistance,
R . The resistance between the load and the sleeve,
S
the sleeve contact resistance, and the system ground
return resistance are grouped together to represent the
ground resistance, R .
G
Assuming a typical source resistance of 5Ω, the ground
return impedance would need to be limited to 115mΩ
to meet Windows Vista’s crosstalk specification of 50dB
(Figure 5). This is further complicated by the fact that
the impedance of the sleeve connection in the 3.5mm
stereo jack can make up 30mΩ–90mΩ alone.
The MAX9791/MAX9792 COM and SENSE inputs
reduce crosstalk performance by eliminating effects of
28.5mΩ of ground return path resistance. If ground
sensing is not required, connect COM directly to GND
and leave SENSE unconnected (Figure 6).
The MAX9791/MAX9792 SENSE and COM inputs sense
and correct for the difference between the headphone
return and device ground. When using common-mode
sense, connect COM through a resistor to GND of the
device (Figure 4). For optimum common-mode rejec-
tion, use the same value resistors for R
and R
.

Configuring SENSE and COM in this way improves sys-
tem crosstalk performance by reducing the negative
effects of the headphone jack ground return resistance.
Wake-on-Beep
The MAX9791/MAX9792 beep-detection circuit wakes
up the device (speaker and headphone amplifiers)
once a qualified beep signal is detected at BEEP and
the LDO is enabled. The amplifier wake command from
the beep-detection circuit overrides the logic signal
applied at HP_EN and SPKR_EN.

A qualified BEEP signal consists of a 3.3V typical,
215Hz minimum signal that is present at BEEP for four
consecutive cycles. Once the first rising edge transition
is detected at BEEP, the beep circuit wakes up and
begins counting the beep cycles. Once four consecu-
tive cycles of a qualified beep signal are counted, the
device (speaker and headphone amplifiers) enables
within 400µs. If the first rising edge is not followed by
three consecutive rising edges within 16ms, the device
remains shutdown (i.e., glitch protection).

Applications Information
Filterless Class D Operation
Traditional Class D amplifiers require an output filter to
recover the audio signal from the amplifier’s output. The
filters add cost and size and can decrease efficiency
and THD+N performance. The traditional PWM scheme
uses large differential output swings (2 x PVDD peak-
to-peak) causing large ripple currents. Any parasitic
resistance in the filter components results in a loss of
power, lowering the efficiency.

IN
eliminated.
Speaker Amplifier
The MAX9791/MAX9792 speaker amplifiers feature
Maxim’s comprehensive, industry leading click-and-
pop suppression. During startup and shutdown, the
click-and-pop suppression circuitry eliminates any
audible transient sources internal to the device.
The MAX9791/MAX9792 do not require an output filter.
The devices rely on the inherent inductance of the speak-
er coil and the natural filtering of both the speaker and
the human ear to recover the audio component of the
square-wave output. Eliminating the output filter results in
a smaller, less costly, and more efficient solution.
Headphone Amplifier
In conventional single-supply headphone amplifiers,
the output-coupling capacitor is a major contributor of
audible clicks and pops. Upon startup, the amplifier
charges the coupling capacitor to its bias voltage, typi-
Because the frequency of the MAX9791/MAX9792 out-
put is well beyond the bandwidth of most speakers,
voice coil movement due to the square-wave frequency
is very small. For optimum results, use a speaker with a
series inductance > 10µH. Typical 8Ω speakers exhibit
series inductances in the 20µH to 100µH range.
cally V /2. During shutdown, the capacitor is dis-
DD
charged to GND; a DC shift across the capacitor
results, which in turn appears as an audible transient at
the speaker. Because the MAX9791/MAX9792 do not
require output-coupling capacitors, no audible transient
occurs.
The MAX9791/MAX9792 headphone amplifiers feature
extensive click-and-pop suppression that eliminates
any audible transient sources internal to the device.

Output Power (Headphone Amplifier)
The headphone amplifiers are specified for the worst-
case scenario when both inputs are in phase. Under
this condition, the drivers simultaneously draw current
from the charge pump, leading to a slight loss in head-
room of CPVSS. In typical stereo audio applications, the
left and right signals have differences in both magni-
tude and phase, subsequently leading to an increase in
the maximum attainable output power. Figure 11 shows
the two extreme cases for in and out of phase. In most
cases, the available power lies between these
extremes.

Power Supplies
The MAX9791/MAX9792 speaker amplifiers are pow-

headphone amplifiers are powered from HPVDD and
CPVSS. HPVDD is the positive supply of the headphone
amplifiers and charge pump ranging from 2.7V to 5.5V.
CPVSS is the negative supply of the headphone ampli-
fiers. The charge pump inverts the voltage at HPVDD,
and the resulting voltage appears at CPVSS. AVDD
powers the LDO and the remainder of the device.
AVDD and PVDD must be tied together. If LDO is
enabled, set AVDD and PVDD as specified in the Line
Regulation row of the Electrical Characteristics table.

the amplifier’s low frequency response. Use capaci-
tors with adequately low-voltage coefficients (see
Figure 12). Capacitors with higher voltage coeffi-
cients, such as ceramics, result in increased distor-
tion at low frequencies.
Charge-Pump Capacitor Selection
Use capacitors with an ESR less than 100mΩ for opti-
mum performance. Low ESR ceramic capacitors mini-
mize the output resistance of the charge pump. For
best performance over the extended temperature
range, select capacitors with an X7R dielectric.
Positive Power Supply and LDO Input (AVDD)
The internal LDO and the remainder of the device are
powered by AVDD. AVDD ranges from 2.7V to 5.5V.
AVDD and PVDD must be tied together. If LDO is
enabled, set AVDD and PVDD as specified in LDO line
regulation. Bypass AVDD with a 0.1µF capacitor to
GND and two 1µF capacitors to GND. Note additional
bulk capacitance is required at the device if long input
traces between AVDD and the power source are used.
Flying Capacitor (C1)
The value of the flying capacitor (C1) affects the load
regulation and output resistance of the charge pump. A
C1 value that is too small degrades the device’s ability
to provide sufficient current drive, which leads to a loss
of output voltage. Connect a 1µF capacitor between
C1P and C1N.

Windows Vista-Compliant Class D Speaker
Amplifiers with DirectDrive Headphone Amplifiers
Charge-Pump Output Capacitor (C2)
The MAX9791/MAX9792 is inherently designed for
excellent RF immunity. For best performance, add
ground fills around all signal traces on top or bottom
PCB planes.
Connect a 1µF capacitor between CPVSS and PGND.
LDO Output Capacitor (CLDO)
Connect 2 x 1µF capacitors between LDO_OUT and
GND for 4.75V and 3.3V LDO options (MAX979_A and
MAX979_B, respectively). Connect two parallel 2µF
capacitors between LDO_OUT and GND for the 1.8V
LDO option (MAX979_C).
Use large, low-resistance output traces. As load imped-
ance decreases, the current drawn from the device out-
puts increase. At higher current, the resistance of the
output traces decrease the power delivered to the load.
For example, if 2W is delivered from the speaker output
to a 4Ω load through a 100mΩ trace, 49mW is wasted
in the trace. If power is delivered through a 10mΩ
trace, only 5mW is wasted in the trace. Large output,
supply, and GND traces also improve the power dissi-
pation of the device.
Layout and Grounding
Proper layout and grounding are essential for optimum
performance. Use large traces for the power-supply
inputs and amplifier outputs to minimize losses due to
parasitic trace resistance, as well as route heat away
from the device. Good grounding improves audio per-
formance, minimizes crosstalk between channels, and
prevents switching noise from coupling into the audio
signal. Connect PGND and GND together at a single
point on the PCB. Route PGND and all traces that carry
switching transients away from GND, and the traces
and components in the audio signal path.
The MAX9791/MAX9792 thin QFN package features an
exposed thermal pad on its underside. This pad lowers
the package’s thermal resistance by providing a direct
heat conduction path from the die to the printed circuit
board. Connect the exposed thermal pad to GND by
using a large pad and multiple vias to the GND plane.

Chip Information
Connect C2 to the PGND plane. Place the charge-
pump capacitors (C1, C2) as close as possible to the
device. Bypass PVDD with a 0.1µF capacitor to PGND.
Place the bypass capacitors as close as possible to the
device.
