Note 1: Operation is guaranteed up to 64V, however, distortion may be introduced from SPiKe Protection Circuitry if proper thermal considerations are not taken  
into account. Refer to the Application Information section for a complete explanation.  
Note 2: DC Electrical Test; Refer to Test Circuit #1.  
Note 3: AC Electrical Test; Refer to Test Circuit #2.  
Note 4: All voltages are measured with respect to the GND pins (5, 10), unless otherwise specified.  
Note 5: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is  
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC and AC electrical specifications under particular test conditions which  
guarantee specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the Operating Ratings. Specifications are not guaranteed for parameters where no limit  
is given, however, the typical value is a good indication of device performance.  
Note 6: For operating at case temperatures above 25˚C, the device must be derated based on a 150˚C maximum junction temperature and a thermal resistance  
of θ = 2˚C/W (junction to case) for the TF package and θ = 1˚C/W for the T package. Refer to the section Determining the Correct Heat Sink in the Application

Information section.  
Note 7: Human body model, 100 pF discharged through a 1.5 kresistor.  
Note 8: The operating junction temperature maximum is 150˚C, however, the instantaneous Safe Operating Area temperature is 250˚C.  
Note 9: Typicals are measured at 25˚C and represent the parametric norm.  
Note 10: Limits are guarantees that all parts are tested in production to meet the stated values.  
Note 11: V must have at least −9V at its pin with reference to ground in order for the under-voltage protection circuitry to be disabled. In addition, the voltage

Performance Characteristics section.  
Note 13: For a 4load, and with 20V supplies, the LM1876 can deliver typically 22W of continuous average output power with less than 0.1% (THD + N). With  
supplies above 20V, the LM1876 cannot deliver more than 22W into a 4due to current limiting of the output transistors. Thus, increasing the power supply above  
20V will only increase the internal power dissipation, not the possible output power. Increased power dissipation will require a larger heat sink as explained in the  
Application Information section.

155˚C. This greatly reduces the stress imposed on the IC by  
thermal cycling, which in turn improves its reliability under  
sustained fault conditions.  
Application Information  
MUTE MODE  
Since the die temperature is directly dependent upon the  
heat sink used, the heat sink should be chosen such that  
thermal shutdown will not be reached during normal opera-  
tion. Using the best heat sink possible within the cost and  
space constraints of the system will improve the long-term  
reliability of any power semiconductor device, as discussed  
in the Determining the Correct Heat Sink Section.  
By placing a logic-high voltage on the mute pins, the signal  
going into the amplifiers will be muted. If the mute pins are  
left floating or connected to a logic-low voltage, the amplifi-  
ers will be in a non-muted state. There are two mute pins,  
one for each amplifier, so that one channel can be muted  
without muting the other if the application requires such a  
configuration. Refer to the Typical Performance Character-  
istics section for curves concerning Mute Attenuation vs  
Mute Pin Voltage.  
DETERMlNlNG MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION  
Power dissipation within the integrated circuit package is a  
very important parameter requiring a thorough understand-  
ing if optimum power output is to be obtained. An incorrect  
maximum power dissipation calculation may result in inad-  
equate heat sinking causing thermal shutdown and thus  
limiting the output power.  
STANDBY MODE  
The standby mode of the LM1876 allows the user to drasti-  
cally reduce power consumption when the amplifiers are  
idle. By placing a logic-high voltage on the standby pins, the  
amplifiers will go into Standby Mode. In this mode, the  
current drawn from the VCC supply is typically less than 10  
µA total for both amplifiers. The current drawn from the VEE  
supply is typically 4.2 mA. Clearly, there is a significant  
reduction in idle power consumption when using the standby  
mode. There are two Standby pins, so that one channel can  
be put in standby mode without putting the other amplifier in  
standby if the application requires such flexibility. Refer to  
the Typical Performance Characteristics section for  
curves showing Supply Current vs. Standby Pin Voltage for  
both supplies.  
Equation (1) exemplifies the theoretical maximum power  
dissipation point of each amplifier where VCC is the total  
supply voltage.  
PDMAX = VCC2/2π2RL  
(1)  
Thus by knowing the total supply voltage and rated output  
load, the maximum power dissipation point can be calcu-  
lated. The package dissipation is twice the number which  
results from equation (1) since there are two amplifiers in  
each LM1876. Refer to the graphs of Power Dissipation  
versus Output Power in the Typical Performance Charac-  
teristics section which show the actual full range of power  
dissipation not just the maximum theoretical point that re-  
sults from equation (1).  
UNDER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION  
Upon system power-up, the under-voltage protection cir-  
cuitry allows the power supplies and their corresponding  
capacitors to come up close to their full values before turning  
on the LM1876 such that no DC output spikes occur. Upon  
turn-off, the output of the LM1876 is brought to ground  
before the power supplies such that no transients occur at  
power-down.  
DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEAT SINK  
The choice of a heat sink for a high-power audio amplifier is  
made entirely to keep the die temperature at a level such  
that the thermal protection circuitry does not operate under  
normal circumstances.  
The thermal resistance from the die (junction) to the outside  
air (ambient) is a combination of three thermal resistances,  
OVER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION  
The LM1876 contains over-voltage protection circuitry that  
limits the output current to approximately 3.5 Apk while also  
providing voltage clamping, though not through internal  
clamping diodes. The clamping effect is quite the same,  
however, the output transistors are designed to work alter-  
nately by sinking large current spikes.  
θ
JC, θCS, and θSA. In addition, the thermal resistance, θJC  
(junction to case), of the LM1876TF is 2˚C/W and the  
LM1876T is 1˚C/W. Using Thermalloy Thermacote thermal  
compound, the thermal resistance, θCS (case to sink), is  
about 0.2˚C/W. Since convection heat flow (power dissipa-  
tion) is analogous to current flow, thermal resistance is  
analogous to electrical resistance, and temperature drops  
are analogous to voltage drops, the power dissipation out of  
the LM1876 is equal to the following:  
SPiKe PROTECTION  
The LM1876 is protected from instantaneous peak-  
temperature stressing of the power transistor array. The Safe  
Operating graph in the Typical Performance Characteris-  
tics section shows the area of device operation where  
SPiKe Protection Circuitry is not enabled. The waveform to  
the right of the SOA graph exemplifies how the dynamic  
protection will cause waveform distortion when enabled.  
PDMAX = (TJMAX−TAMB)/θJA  
where TJMAX = 150˚C, TAMB is the system ambient tempera-  
ture and θJA = θJC + θCS + θSA  
(2)  
.
Once the maximum package power dissipation has been  
calculated using equation (1), the maximum thermal resis-  
tance, θSA, (heat sink to ambient) in ˚C/W for a heat sink can  
be calculated. This calculation is made using equation (3)  
which is derived by solving for θSA in equation (2).  
THERMAL PROTECTION  
The LM1876 has a sophisticated thermal protection scheme  
to prevent long-term thermal stress of the device. When the  
temperature on the die reaches 165˚C, the LM1876 shuts  
down. It starts operating again when the die temperature  
drops to about 155˚C, but if the temperature again begins to  
rise, shutdown will occur again at 165˚C. Therefore, the  
device is allowed to heat up to a relatively high temperature  
if the fault condition is temporary, but a sustained fault will  
cause the device to cycle in a Schmitt Trigger fashion be-  
tween the thermal shutdown temperature limits of 165˚C and  
θSA = [(TJMAX−TAMB)−PDMAX(θJC +θCS)]/PDMAX (3)  
Again it must be noted that the value of θSA is dependent  
upon the system designer’s amplifier requirements. If the  
ambient temperature that the audio amplifier is to be working  
under is higher than 25˚C, then the thermal resistance for the  
heat sink, given all other things are equal, will need to be  
smaller.

using some external components to create a half-supply bias  
which is used as the reference for the inputs and outputs.  
Thus, the signal will swing around half-supply much like it  
swings around ground in a split-supply application. Along  
with proper circuit biasing, a few other considerations must  
be accounted for to take advantage of all of the LM1876  
functions.  
Application Information (Continued)  
SUPPLY BYPASSING  
The LM1876 has excellent power supply rejection and does  
not require a regulated supply. However, to improve system  
performance as well as eliminate possible oscillations, the  
LM1876 should have its supply leads bypassed with low-  
inductance capacitors having short leads that are located  
close to the package terminals. Inadequate power supply  
bypassing will manifest itself by a low frequency oscillation  
known as “motorboating” or by high frequency instabilities.  
These instabilities can be eliminated through multiple by-  
passing utilizing a large tantalum or electrolytic capacitor (10  
µF or larger) which is used to absorb low frequency varia-  
tions and a small ceramic capacitor (0.1 µF) to prevent any  
high frequency feedback through the power supply lines.  
The LM1876 possesses a mute and standby function with  
internal logic gates that are half-supply referenced. Thus, to  
enable either the Mute or Standby function, the voltage at  
these pins must be a minimum of 2.5V above half-supply. In  
single-supply systems, devices such as microprocessors  
and simple logic circuits used to control the mute and  
standby functions, are usually referenced to ground, not  
half-supply. Thus, to use these devices to control the logic  
circuitry of the LM1876, a “level shifter,” like the one shown in  
Figure 5, must be employed. A level shifter is not needed in  
a split-supply configuration since ground is also half-supply.  
If adequate bypassing is not provided, the current in the  
supply leads which is a rectified component of the load  
current may be fed back into internal circuitry. This signal  
causes distortion at high frequencies requiring that the sup-  
plies be bypassed at the package terminals with an electro-  
lytic capacitor of 470 µF or more.  
BRIDGED AMPLIFIER APPLICATION  
The LM1876 has two operational amplifiers internally, allow-  
ing for a few different amplifier configurations. One of these  
configurations is referred to as “bridged mode” and involves  
driving the load differentially through the LM1876’s outputs.  
This configuration is shown in Figure 2. Bridged mode op-  
eration is different from the classical single-ended amplifier  
configuration where one side of its load is connected to  
ground.

FIGURE 5. Level Shift Circuit  
A bridge amplifier design has a distinct advantage over the  
single-ended configuration, as it provides differential drive to  
the load, thus doubling output swing for a specified supply  
voltage. Consequently, theoretically four times the output  
power is possible as compared to a single-ended amplifier  
under the same conditions. This increase in attainable output  
power assumes that the amplifier is not current limited or  
clipped.  
When the voltage at the Logic Input node is 0V, the 2N3904  
is “off” and thus resistor Rc pulls up mute or standby input to  
the supply. This enables the mute or standby function. When  
the Logic Input is 5V, the 2N3904 is “on” and consequently,  
the voltage at the collector is essentially 0V. This will disable  
the mute or standby function, and thus the amplifier will be in  
its normal mode of operation. Rshift, along with Cshift, creates  
an RC time constant that reduces transients when the mute  
or standby functions are enabled or disabled. Additionally,  
Rshift limits the current supplied by the internal logic gates of  
the LM1876 which insures device reliability. Refer to the  
Mute Mode and Standby Mode sections in the Application  
Information section for a more detailed description of these  
functions.  
A direct consequence of the increased power delivered to  
the load by a bridge amplifier is an increase in internal power  
dissipation. For each operational amplifier in a bridge con-  
figuration, the internal power dissipation will increase by a  
factor of two over the single ended dissipation. Thus, for an  
audio power amplifier such as the LM1876, which has two  
operational amplifiers in one package, the package dissipa-  
tion will increase by a factor of four. To calculate the  
LM1876’s maximum power dissipation point for a bridged  
load, multiply equation (1) by a factor of four.  
CLICKS AND POPS  
In the typical application of the LM1876 as a split-supply  
audio power amplifier, the IC exhibits excellent “click” and  
“pop” performance when utilizing the mute and standby  
modes. In addition, the device employs Under-Voltage Pro-  
tection, which eliminates unwanted power-up and power-  
down transients. The basis for these functions are a stable  
and constant half-supply potential. In a split-supply applica-  
tion, ground is the stable half-supply potential. But in a  
single-supply application, the half-supply needs to charge up  
just like the supply rail, VCC. This makes the task of attaining  
a clickless and popless turn-on more challenging. Any un-  
even charging of the amplifier inputs will result in output  
clicks and pops due to the differential input topology of the  
LM1876.  
This value of PDMAX can be used to calculate the correct size  
heat sink for a bridged amplifier application. Since the inter-  
nal dissipation for a given power supply and load is in-  
creased by using bridged-mode, the heatsink’s θSA will have  
to decrease accordingly as shown by equation (3). Refer to  
the section, Determining the Correct Heat Sink, for a more  
detailed discussion of proper heat sinking for a given appli-  
cation.  
SINGLE-SUPPLY AMPLIFIER APPLICATION  
The typical application of the LM1876 is a split supply am-  
plifier. But as shown in Figure 3, the LM1876 can also be  
used in a single power supply configuration. This involves  
17

the unloaded voltage which is usually about 15% higher. The  
supply voltage will also rise 10% during high line conditions.  
Therefore the maximum supply voltage is obtained from the  
following equation.  
Application Information (Continued)  
To achieve a transient free power-up and power-down, the  
voltage seen at the input terminals should be ideally the  
same. Such a signal will be common-mode in nature, and  
will be rejected by the LM1876. In Figure 3, the resistor RINP  
serves to keep the inputs at the same potential by limiting the  
voltage difference possible between the two nodes. This  
should significantly reduce any type of turn-on pop, due to an  
uneven charging of the amplifier inputs. This charging is  
based on a specific application loading and thus, the system  
designer may need to adjust these values for optimal perfor-  
mance.  
Max supplies (VOPEAK + VOD) (1 + regulation) (1.1)  
For 15W of output power into an 8load, the required  
VOPEAK is 15.49V. A minimum supply rail of 20.5V results  
from adding VOPEAK and VOD. With regulation, the maximum  
supplies are 26V and the required IOPEAK is 1.94A from  
equation (5). It should be noted that for a dual 15W amplifier  
into an 8load the IOPEAK drawn from the supplies is twice  
1.94 Apk or 3.88 Apk. At this point it is a good idea to check  
the Power Output vs Supply Voltage to ensure that the  
required output power is obtainable from the device while  
maintaining low THD+N. In addition, the designer should  
verify that with the required power supply voltage and load  
impedance, that the required heatsink value θSA is feasible  
given system cost and size constraints. Once the heatsink  
issues have been addressed, the required gain can be de-  
termined from Equation (6).  
As shown in Figure 3, the resistors labeled RBI help bias up  
the LM1876 off the half-supply node at the emitter of the  
2N3904. But due to the input and output coupling capacitors  
in the circuit, along with the negative feedback, there are two  
different values of RBI, namely 10 kand 200 k. These  
resistors bring up the inputs at the same rate resulting in a  
popless turn-on. Adjusting these resistors values slightly  
may reduce pops resulting from power supplies that ramp  
extremely quick or exhibit overshoot during system turn-on.

From equation 6, the minimum AV is: AV 11.

Thus with Ri = 1 ka non-inverting gain of 21 will result.  
Since the desired input impedance was 47 k, a value of 47  
kwas selected for RIN. The final design step is to address  
the bandwidth requirements which must be stated as a pair  
of −3 dB frequency points. Five times away from a −3 dB  
point is 0.17 dB down from passband response which is  
better than the required 0.25 dB specified. This fact results  
in a low and high frequency pole of 4 Hz and 100 kHz  
respectively. As stated in the External Components sec-  
tion, Ri in conjunction with Ci create a high-pass filter.

A designer must first determine the power supply require-  
ments in terms of both voltage and current needed to obtain  
the specified output power. VOPEAK can be determined from  
equation (4) and IOPEAK from equation (5).

Ci 1/(2π 1 k4 Hz) = 39.8 µF;  
use 39 µF.  
The high frequency pole is determined by the product of the  
desired high frequency pole, fH, and the gain, AV. With a  
AV = 21 and fH = 100 kHz, the resulting GBWP is 2.1 MHz,  
which is less than the guaranteed minimum GBWP of the  
LM1876 of 5 MHz. This will ensure that the high frequency  
response of the amplifier will be no worse than 0.17 dB down  
at 20 kHz which is well within the bandwidth requirements of  
the design.

To determine the maximum supply voltage the following  
conditions must be considered. Add the dropout voltage to  
the peak output swing VOPEAK, to get the supply rail at a  
current of IOPEAK. The regulation of the supply determines
