on the outputs after the LC filter. Typical short-circuit condi-
tions include shorting of the output load, and shorting to either
PVDD or PGND.
UNDERVOLTAGE PROTECTION
The ADAU1590 is also comprised of an undervoltage protec-
tion circuit, which senses the undervoltage on PVDD. When
the PVDD supply goes below the operating threshold, the
output FETs are turned to a high-Z condition. In addition, the
device issues an error flag by pulling ERR low. This condition
is latched. To restore the operation, MUTE (Pin 15) needs to
be toggled to low and then to high again.
CLOCK LOSS DETECTION
The ADAU1590 includes a clock loss detection circuit. In case
the master clock to the part is lost, the ERR flag is set. This
condition is latched. To restore operation, MUTE needs to be
toggled low and high again.
AUTOMATIC RECOVERY FROM PROTECTIONS
In certain applications, it is desired for the amplifier to recover
itself from thermal protection without the need for system
microcontroller intervention.
The ADAU1590 thermal protection circuit issues two error
signals for this purpose: one a thermal warning ( OTW ) and the
other a thermal shutdown ( ERR ).
With the two error signals, there are two options available for
using the protections:
•
•
The following sections provide further details of these two options.
Option 1: Using OTW
The OTW pin is pulled low when the die temperature reaches
130°C to 135°C. This pin can be wired to MUTE as shown in
Figure 41, using an RC circuit.
The low logic level on OTW also pulls down the MUTE pin.
The bridge is shut down and starts cooling or the die temperature
starts reducing. When it reaches around 120°C, the OTW signal
starts going high. While this pin is tied to a capacitor with a
resistor pulled to DVDD, the voltage on this pin starts rising
slowly towards DVDD. When it reaches the CMOS threshold,
MUTE is deasserted and the amplifier starts functioning again.
This cycle repeats itself depending on the input signal
conditions and the temperature of the die. This option allows
Option 1: Using OTW
Option 2: Using ERR

device operation that is safely below the shutdown temperature
of 150°C and allows the amplifier to recover itself without the
need for microcontroller intervention.
Option 2: Using ERR
Option 2 is similar to Option 1 except the ERR pin is tied to
MUTE instead of OTW . See the circuit in Figure 42.
In this case, the part goes into shutdown mode due to any of the
error generating events like output overcurrent, overtempera-
ture, missing PVDD or DVDD, or clock loss. The part recovers
itself based on the same circuit operation in Figure 41.
However, if the part goes into error mode due to overtempera-
ture, then the device would have reached its maximum limit of
150°C (15°C to 20°C higher than Option 1). If it goes into error
mode due to an overcurrent from a short circuit on the speaker
outputs, then the part keeps itself recycling on and off until the
short circuit is removed.
It is possible that, with this operation, the part is subjected to a
much higher temperature and current stress continuously. This,
in turn, reduces the part’s reliability in the long term. Therefore,
using Option 1 for autorecovery from thermal protection and
using the system microcontroller to indicate to the user of an
error condition is recommended.
MUTE AND STDN
The MUTE and STDN pins are 3.3 V logic-compatible inputs
used to control the turn-on/turn-off for ADAU1590.
The STDN input is active low when the STDN pin is pulled low
and the device is in its energy saving mode. The modulator is
inactive and the power stage is in high-Z state. The high logic
level input on the STDN pin wakes up the device. The
modulator is running internally but the power stage is still in
high-Z state.
When the MUTE pin is pulled high, the power stage becomes
active with a soft turn-on to avoid the pop and clicks. The low
level on the MUTE pin disables the power stage and is
recommended to be used to mute the audio output. See the
Power-Up/Power-Down Sequence section for more details.
