APPLICATION NOTE:
TS486/487 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TS486/487 is a family of dual audio amplifiers able
to drive 16 or 32 headsets. Working in the 2V to
5.5V supply voltage range, they deliver 100mW at
5V and 12mW at 2V in a 16 load. An internal
output current limitation, offers protection against
short-circuits at the output over a limited time
period.
Fixed gain versions of the TS486 and TS487
including the feedback resistor and the input
resistors are also proposed to reduce the number
of external parts.
The TS486 and TS487 exhibit a low quiescent
current of typically 1.8mA, allowing usage in
portable applications.
The standby mode is selected using the
SHUTDOWN input. For TS486 (respectively
TS487), the device is in sleep mode when PIN 5 is
connected at GND (resp. V
