• Manufacturer Part Number: max9705aeub+
• Description: Max9705 2.3w, Ultra-low-emi, Filterless, Class D Audio Amplifier
• Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated Products, Inc.

The MAX9705 ultra-low-EMI, filterless, Class D audio
power amplifier features several improvements to switch-
mode amplifier technology. The MAX9705 features output
driver active emissions limiting circuitry to reduce EMI.
Zero dead time technology maintains state-of-the-art effi-
ciency and THD+N performance by allowing the output
FETs to switch simultaneously without cross-conduction.
A unique filterless modulation scheme, synchronizable
switching frequency, and spread-spectrum mode create
a compact, flexible, low-noise, efficient audio power
amplifier while occupying minimal board space. The dif-
ferential input architecture reduces common-mode noise
pickup with or without the use of input-coupling capaci-
tors. The MAX9705 can also be configured as a single-
ended input amplifier without performance degradation.
Thermal-overload and short-circuit protection prevent the
MAX9705 from being damaged during a fault condition.
The amplifier is disabled if the die temperature reaches
+125°C. The die must cool by 10°C before normal opera-
tion can continue. The output of the MAX9705 shuts down
if the output current reaches approximately 2A. Each out-
put FET has its own short-circuit protection. This protec-
tion scheme allows the amplifier to survive shorts to either
supply rail. After a thermal overload or short circuit, the
device remains disabled for a minimum of 50µs before
attempting to return to normal operation. The amplifier will
shut down immediately and wait another 50µs before turn-
ing on if the fault condition is still present. This operation
will cause the output to pulse during a persistent fault.

Comparators monitor the MAX9705 inputs and com-
pare the complementary input voltages to the sawtooth
waveform. The comparators trip when the input magni-
tude of the sawtooth exceeds their corresponding input
voltage. Both comparators reset at a fixed time after the
rising edge of the second comparator trip point, gener-
ating a minimum-width pulse t
the second comparator (Figure 1). As the input voltage
increases or decreases, the duration of the pulse at one
output increases (the first comparator to trip), while the
other output pulse duration remains at t

The MAX9705 features two FFM modes. The FFM modes
are selected by setting SYNC = GND for a 1.1MHz
switching frequency, and SYNC = FLOAT for a 1.45MHz
switching frequency. In FFM mode, the frequency spec-
trum of the Class D output consists of the fundamental
switching frequency and its associated harmonics (see
the Wideband Output Spectrum Fixed-Frequency Mode
graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics). The
MAX9705 allows the switching frequency to be changed
by +32%, should the frequency of one or more of the
harmonics fall in a sensitive band. This can be done at
any time and does not affect audio reproduction.
The MAX9705 features a unique, patented spread-spec-
trum mode that flattens the wideband spectral components,
