The AudioMAX Evaluation Amplifier Board allows the
user to quickly connect and evaluate the LX1710
Switching Class-D Mono Controller IC.
connect terminal blocks and an RCA plug are
provided for interfacing to Power, Speaker, and Audio
Input connections. The single stage output filter has
been configured to drive a 4

section LC filter design for component selection,
calculations, and suggested inductor and capacitor
values for other loads).
Board operates from a single supply voltage.
The Class-D Amplifier Controller IC requires a
minimal number of external components to create a
complete amplifier solution. See LXE1710 Evaluation
Board Schematic and Bill of Materials for circuit
specifics.
amplifier that converts a low-level, analog audio input
signal into a high power, pulse-width modulated
(PWM) output.
typical but can be adjusted) is much higher than the
audio bandwidth (20Hz to 20kHz), and is easily
filtered out with a simple LC filter.
circuitry can be generally grouped into three areas
(input circuit, output power stage, and output filter).
The first group is the compensation network and
control setting components.

capacitors set up the controller operating frequency,
response characteristics, and comparator ramp
fundamental to Class-D operation.
The next section is the output stage. The controller
IC generates a PWM output by controlling external
FETs connected in a full bridge configuration. The full
bridge configuration is connected between the single
supply voltage (PVDD) and ground (PGND) with the
output of the bridge driving the LC filter stage.
Because the FETs are either fully “on” or fully “off”,
Class-D topology is extremely efficient (up to 85%
typical), circuit power dissipation is minimal, and
maximum power is delivered to the speaker.
bridge output also drives the RC low pass filter, which
provides the feedback for the control loop through the
FBK+ and FBK- inputs.
The single stage, second order LC filter is used to
remove the switching frequency.
