Single in-line header pins are mounted to the underside of the module circuit  
board to allow the EVM to be plugged into the TI Plug-N-Play Audio Amplifier  
Evaluation Platform, or to be wired directly into existing circuits and equipment  
when used stand-alone.  
The platform has room for a single TPA0103 evaluation module and is a  
convenient vehicle for demonstrating TI’s audio power amplifier and related  
evaluation modules. The EVMs simply plug into the platform, which auto-  
matically provides power to the modules, interconnects them correctly, and  
connectsthemtoaversatilearrayofstandardaudioinputandoutputjacksand  
connectors. Easy-to-use configuration controls allow the platform and EVMs  
to quickly model many possible end-equipment configurations.  
There is nothing to build, nothing to solder, and nothing but the speakers  
included with the platform to “hook up.”

The TPA0103 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module  
3.2 The TPA0103 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module  
The TPA0103 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module is powered by a  
TPA0103 3-channel audio power amplifier capable of delivering 535 mW of  
continuous power to each of the left and right single-ended 4-speaker loads,  
and 1.75 W of continuous power (BTL) to a center channel 4-load. The  
amplifier IC can be configured for center channel only, center or L/R channels,  
or three channel operation via two mode terminals. The evaluation module  
includes jumpers for setting modes and control inputs for shutdown, selection  
between two sets of stereo inputs, and switching between output modes.  
The module can be used with the TI Plug-N-Play Audio Amplifier Evaluation  
Platform (Figure 31) or wired directly into circuits or equipment. The module  
has single in-line header connector pins mounted to the under side of the  
board. These pins allow the module to be plugged into the TI platform, which  
automatically makes all the signal input and output, power, and control  
connections to the module.  
The module connection pins are on 0.1-inch centers to allow easy use with  
standard perf board and plug board-based prototyping systems. Or, the EVM  
can be wired directly into existing circuits and equipment when used stand-  
alone.  
The module appears in Figure 3–2 and its schematic is shown in Figure 33.

3.2.1 TPA0103 Audio Amplifier IC  
The TPA0103 audio amplifier IC is a low-voltage CMOS device intended  
primarily for desktop and notebook PCs. In the typical application, the center  
channel amplifier is driven from a mix of the L/R inputs to produce a monaural  
representation of the stereo signal. The center channel amplifier can be shut  
down independently of the L/R output for speaker muting in headphone  
applications. The TPA0103 also features a full shutdown function for power  
sensitive applications reducing current consumption to 5 µA. It is supplied in  
a very small 24-pin TSSOP thermal surface-mount package and has been  
designed to operate from low supply voltages (between approximately 3 V and  
5.5V)anddeliverfullpoweratdistortionlevelsoflessthan0.25%THD+Nfrom  
a 5-V supply (Figure 34).

The IC includes three separate amplifier channels: a left and right stereo pair  
(single-ended)andabridged-tiedload(BTL)centerchannel. IntheBTLmode,  
the two output lines of the center channel operate 180° out-of-phase with each  
other for increased power. The center channel speaker load is connected  
directly across COUT+ and COUT–, and neither line is connected to ground.  
BTL operation provides many benefits, including quadruple the output power  
of single-ended operation and no need for bulky output coupling capacitors.  
The left and right stereo channels operate in the single-ended mode, the  
speaker load is connected between the OUT+ terminal through an output  
coupling capacitor, to system ground. For more information, see the TPA0103  
amplifier IC data sheet, TI Literature Number SLOS167.  
3.2.2 Output Modes  
The TPA0103 amplifier operates in any of three output modes or mutes  
according to the status of the two control terminals MODE A and MODE B as  
shown in Table 3–1.

3.2.3 Inputs and Gain  
The left and right single-ended channels remain separate from input to output.  
On the TPA0103 EVM board, the left and right channel inputs are mixed to  
produce a monaural representation of the stereo signal and applied to the  
amplifier IC center channel input.  
Each of the left and right channels has two separate signal inputs. They are  
called line and headphone (HP) and are pin-selectable. The line inputs and  
the center channel input are adjustable between approximately 2 and 22, and  
the headphone inputs are fixed at a gain of 1. In the typical application in which  
the TPA0103 powers left and right speakers until headphones are plugged in,  
the line input gain can be set so that the two inputs provide approximately the  
same perceived listening level in the headphones as from the speakers. An  
input multiplexor in the amplifier IC selects between the two inputs according  
to the state of the HP/LINE IC pin.  
TheTPA0103amplifierIC, likemostotheramplifiers, exhibitsitsbestdistortion  
and noise performance at lower gain levels (see the TPA0103 data sheet).  
Gain versus total harmonic distortion (THD) should be considered in each  
application. Both the module input signal level and the TPA0103 module gain  
should be adjusted to obtain the lowest overall distortion level for a particular  
overall gain. A quick rule of thumb (everything else being equal): the module  
input signal level should be as high as possible without clipping or overloading  
the TPA0103 input, and the TPA0103 gain should be kept as low as possible.

3.3 Using The TPA0103 EVM With the Plug-N-Play Evaluation Platform  
The TPA0103 Audio Amplifier Evaluation Module was designed to be used  
with the TI Plug-N-Play Audio Amplifier Evaluation Platform. It simply plugs  
into socket U2.  
The following paragraphs provide additional details for using the TPA0103  
EVM with the platform.  
3.3.1 Installing and Removing EVM Boards  
TI Plug-N-Play evaluation modules use single-in-line header pins installed on  
the underside of the module circuit board to plug into sockets on the platform.  
The EVM pins and the platform sockets are keyed such that only the correct  
type of EVM can be installed in a particular socket, and then only with the  
proper orientation.  
Evaluation modules are easily removed from the platform by simply prying  
them up and lifting them out of their sockets. Care must be taken, however, to  
prevent bending the pins.  
3.3.1.1 EVM Insertion  
1) Remove all power from the evaluation platform.  
2) Locate socket U2 on the platform.  
3) Orient the module correctly.  
4) Carefully align the pins of the module with the socket pin receptacles.  
5) Gently press the module into place.  
6) Check to be sure that all pins are seated properly and that none are bent  
over.  
3.3.1.2 EVM Removal  
1) Remove all power from the evaluation platform.  
2) Using an appropriate tool as a lever, gently pry up one side of the module  
a small amount.  
3) Change to the opposite side of the module and use the tool to pry that side  
up a small amount.  
4) Alternate between sides, prying the module up a little more each time to  
avoid bending the pins, until it comes loose from the socket.  
5) Lift the EVM off of the platform.

3.3.2 TPA0103 Module Jumper Settings  
The TPA0103 EVM is equipped with several jumpers that act like SPST  
switches to allow module operation to be modified to suit various  
requirements. In the following discussion, setting a jumper to ON means that  
a shunt is installed across the two pins of the jumper. Setting a jumper to OFF  
means that no shunt is installed on the jumper. See Figure 3.5.  
In typical applications, some or all of the jumper functions are controlled by the  
system microcontroller or external logic.  
Note that jumpers S2 through S5 tie various amplifier control input pins directly  
to V . When one of these EVM jumpers is set to ON, the signal on the  
DD  
associated EVM control input pin will have no effect. In addition, V appears  
DD  
on that EVM control input pin. Care should be taken to ensure that  
low-impedance paths to ground are not provided through the circuitry that  
applies control signals to the EVM control input pins or that external circuits  
will not be upset by V  
appearing on the EVM control input lines.

3.3.2.1 S1 — Shutdown Jumper  
To have the module amplifier IC enter the shutdown mode when the module  
mute control input is activated, set shutdown jumper S1 to ON.  
The mute control output pin on the TPA0103 amplifier IC goes high when the  
mute mode is selected by the output mode jumpers (S2 and S4). Jumper S1  
connects the mute output pin to the shutdown control input pin of the IC so that  
when S1 is ON, the IC is forced into shutdown mode instead of mute mode  
when the mute mode is selected. When S1 is OFF, a pulldown resistor on the  
module holds the IC shutdown control input pin low, keeping the IC out of the  
shutdown mode.  
The shutdown mode reduces IC current consumption to approximately 5 µA  
comparedtoapproximately1.5mAinthemutemode. Ittakeslonger, however,  
to resume normal operation from the shutdown mode (approx. 1 s to 2 s) than  
it takes to resume normal operation from the mute mode (approx. 100 ms to  
500 ms).  
3.3.2.2 S2 and S4 — Output Mode Control Jumpers  
Two IC amplifier output mode control pins select among three output modes  
and mute. These pins, Mode A and Mode B, are brought out to module pins  
and also have jumpers that can hardwire the IC amplifier control inputs high.  
Table 3–2 shows the relationship between the IC amplifier control inputs and  
the output modes.

When S2 is OFF, a pulldown resistor on the module holds the Mode B output  
mode control input pin low. The Mode B control input pin is not directly  
controlled by anything on the platform — the platform socket for that module  
pin is N/C.  
Jumper S4 connects the Mode A output mode control input pin on the amplifier  
IC directly to V  
regardless of the state of the Mode A module control input,  
DD  
or the input select module control input (HP/L*), or the status of jumper S3

on the module holds the amplifier IC ModeA output mode control input pin low.

3.3.2.3 S3 — Input Select Jumper  
To select the line inputs, set input select jumper S3 to OFF. To select the  
headphone inputs, set input select jumper S3 to ON.  
The TPA0103 amplifier IC has two separate inputs for each of the left and right  
stereo channels. An internal multiplexor selects which input will be connected  
to the amplifier based on the state of the HP/LINE pin on the IC. However, the  
EVM HP/L* control input pin is not directly controlled by anything on the  
platform — the platform socket for that module pin is N/C. The amplifier IC  
HP/LINE control pin can be tied high manually via jumper S3 or connected to  
the amplifier IC Mode A control pin via jumper S5 so that it follows that control  
signal.  
For manual control, jumper S3 connects the HP/L* module control input pin to  
V
, so that when S3 is ON, the headphone inputs are selected. When S3 is  
DD  
OFF, a pulldown resistor on the module holds the IC shutdown control input  
pin low, selecting the line inputs.  
3.3.2.4 S5 — Autosense Jumper  
To have the IC amplifier input select control input pin (HP/Line) follow the state  
of the Mode A IC output mode select pin, set autosense jumper S5 to ON. This  
automatically selects the headphone inputs when the Mode A control input  
goes high.  
Note that when autosense jumper S5 is set to ON, amplifier IC control input  
pins HP/Line and Mode A are tied to V , and the Mode A control signal will  
DD  
have no effect if either jumper S3 or jumper S4 are set to ON.

3.3.3.1 Signal Conditioning  
The audio signal from the input jacks can be applied to the signal conditioning  
socket (U1) if an EVM is installed there, or socket U1 can be bypassed and the  
audio input signal applied directly to the inputs of the TPA0103.  
Switch S2 selects signal conditioning or bypasses it.  
3.3.3.2 Headphone Output Jack  
Switch S3 is the source select for the stereo headphone output jack, J10. The  
headphone jack is capacitively coupled (via 470 µF electrolytics) and can  
output either the signal from the headphone amplifier in socket U5, or the  
signal from the TPA0103 power amplifier installed in socket U2, as determined  
by the setting of headphone source select switch S3.  
When S3 is set to the power amplifier position (U2 – U4), the headphone jack  
is connected to the TPA0103 left and right OUT+ output lines. When a plug is  
inserted into the jack, signals output through J10 are returned to platform  
ground, requiring single-ended power amplifier operation. A switch inside the  
headphone jack produces a control signal that can be routed to the power  
amplifier socket to shut down the TPA0103 EVM or switch it to stereo  
single-ended headphone output mode when a plug is inserted.  
Source select switch S3 connects the headphone jack to the output lines of  
either the headphone amplifier socket U5 or the power amplifier sockets  
(U2 – U4).

Using The TPA0103 EVM With the Plug-N-Play Evaluation Platform  
3.3.4 Mode Control  
The TPA0103 EVM is equipped with a mode control input pin that receives a  
control signal from the platform. This EVM pin is connected to the amplifier IC  
Mode A output mode control input pin. The state of this input, in conjunction  
with the state of the Mode B output mode control input pin, controls the output  
mode of the amplifier IC on the EVM.  
When the EVM mode control input pin (Mode A) is high, the TPA0103 amplifier  
IC on the module either enters the mute mode and dissipates very little power  
when Mode B jumper S2 on the EVM is set to OFF. When S2 is set to ON, a  
high on the EVM mode control input pin causes the amplifier IC to enter the  
L/R stereo outputs only mode.  
When the EVM mode control input is tied to GND or allowed to float, the  
3-channel output mode is selected if S2 is set to OFF and the center channel  
only output mode is selected if S2 is set to ON.  
In the typical application, output mode switching allows the TPA0103 to  
operate the BTL center channel to drive a speaker and then switch to stereo  
left and right single-ended mode to drive headphones when a plug is inserted  
into the headphone jack.  
3.3.4.1 Headphone Jack Control Signals  
The platform headphone output jack (J10) contains an internal switch that  
changesthestateofapairofcontrollineswhenaplugisinserted(Figure3–7).  
Each control line is pulled down by a 1-kresistor to ground (R4 and R5). The  
switch in the headphone jack pulls one line or the other up to V  
through a  
DD  
240-resistor (R3), depending on whether a plug is inserted in J10 or not.

A 3-pin jumper header (JP6) on the platform, functioning as an SPDT switch,  
routes the control signal from the headphone jack to either the mute control  
input pin or the mode control input pin of the evaluation module.  
To switch the TPA0103 amplifier module between center channel  
speaker and stereo headphone modes using the control signal from  
the platform headphone jack, jumper JP6 to MODE  
For center channel only or 3-channel output modes (as selected by  
EVM jumper S2) leave JP6 open.  
3.3.4.3 Mute/Mode Polarity Select (JP8)  
A second 3-pin jumper header (JP8) on the platform selects the control signal  
polarity by connecting either the active-high or the active-low line from the  
headphone jack to jumper JP6.  
When JP6 is set to Mode, set JP8 to Hi.  
When JP6 is open, JP8 settings are ignored.

The TPA0103 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module can operate from any  
voltagebetweenapproximately3Vand5.5V;however, theTPA0103amplifier  
IC on the module is characterized for operation at 3.3 V and 5 V. For best  
performance (highest output power with lowest distortion), the module should  
be operated at approximately 5 V unless there is a specific reason for  
operating it from a lower voltage.  
The TI Plug-N-Play Audio Amplifier Evaluation Platform with a voltage  
regulator EVM installed on it can provide a regulated V  
supply from a wide  
DD  
variety of unregulated V  
voltage inputs between approximately 5.5 V and  
CC  
12 V, including an on-board 9-V battery. Or, an external regulated power  
source can be used to supply V voltage to the platform and the TPA0103  
DD  
evaluation module installed on it.  
Although the TPA0103 amplifier IC draws approximately 0.9 A from the power  
supply during continuous full power output, peak current draw can be as high  
as 1.5 A. Any power supply connected to the platform should be capable of  
providing 1.5 A of current to avoid clipping the output signal during peaks.  
Current consumption driving speakers at normal listening levels is typically  
0.5 A or less.  
The platform is equipped with overvoltage and reverse-polarity supply voltage  
input protection in the form of fused crowbar circuits.  
V
voltage applied to platform screw terminals J6 MUST NOT exceed  
DD  
the absolute maximum rating for the TPA0103 amplifier IC installed on the  
evaluation module (6 V) or damage to the IC may result. In no case should  
V
voltage of the incorrect polarity or in excess of 6.1 V be applied to  
DD  
screw terminals J6 of the platform, or the power protection circuit on the  
V
line will trip.  
DD  
V
voltage applied to the platform MUST NOT exceed the maximum  
CC  
voltage input specified for the voltage regulator module installed in socket  
U6 (12 V for the SLVP097), or damage to the voltage regulator module  
may result. In no case should V  
voltage applied to the platform exceed  
CC  
15 V, or the overvoltage protection circuit on the V  
bus will trip.

Inputs and Outputs  
3.3.6 Inputs and Outputs  
The TI Plug-N-Play Audio Amplifier Evaluation Platform is equipped with  
several standard conectors for audio inputs and outputs.  
3.3.6.1 Inputs  
In most cases, audio signals enter the platform through either a pair of RCA  
phono jacks (J3 and J5) or a miniature (1/8) stereo phone jack (J4). Certain  
signal conditioning and amplifier EVMs, however, may have additional signal  
input connectors mounted on the module circuit board.  
The platform audio signal input jacks (J3, J4, and J5) are of the closed-circuit  
type, grounding the signal input lines when no plugs are inserted.  
3.3.6.2 Outputs  
When the TPA0103 EVM is installed, amplified audio output signals leave the  
platform through the negative left and right compression connectors for  
stripped speaker wires (J8) and through a miniature (1/8) stereo phone jack  
(J10), for headphones.  
The TPA0103 EVM BTL center channel audio output from amplifier IC leave  
the platform via the left and right negative (black) compression connectors of  
J8. The positive (red) connectors of J8 are not used. Each output is isolated  
from system ground allowing the TPA0103 center channel power amplifier to  
operate in the highly-efficient bridge-tied load configuration for driving a  
speaker.  
The platform headphone jack (J10) is capacitively coupled to source select  
switch S3, which connects J10 to the output lines of either the headphone  
amplifier socket or the power amplifier sockets (Figure 36). When the  
TPA0103 single-ended left and right stereo headphone output signals are  
routed to J10 by S3, signals output via J10 are returned to platform ground  
when a plug is inserted (Figure 38).

Using The TPA0103 EVM Stand-Alone  
3.4 Using The TPA0103 EVM Stand-Alone  
Using the TPA0103 Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module stand-alone is  
much the same as using it with the platform. The same 3-V to 5.5-V power  
supply range and the isolated OUT+ and OUT– lines for BTL operation  
requirement exists.  
Note that the mute signal applied to the EVM Mode A pin must be able to sup-  
ply enough current to overcome the pulldown resistor on the module (100 k),  
possibly in parallel with a second pulldown resistor (100 k).
