3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA8932 is a high efficiency class-D amplifier with low dissipation.
The maximum output power is 2x25W in stereo half-bridge application (Rl=4 ohm) or 1x50W in mono full
bridge application (Rl=8 ohm). Due to the high efficiency the device can be used without any external heat
sink when playing music. If proper cooling via the PCB is implemented, a continuous output power of 2 x
15W is feasible. Due to the implementation of thermal foldback even for high supply voltages and/or lower
load impedances the device can be operated with considerable music output power without the need for
an external heat sink.
The device has two full differential inputs driving four integrated power switches, combined in two
independent outputs. It can be used as mono full bridge (BTL) or as stereo half bridge (SE).

8 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
8.1 General
The TDA8932 is a mono full bridge (BTL) or stereo half bridge (SE) audio power amplifier using class-D
technology. The audio input signal is converted into a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal via an analog
input stage and PWM modulator. To enable the output power DMOS transistors to be driven, this digital
PWM signal is applied to a control and handshake block and driver circuits for both the high side and low
side. A 2nd-order low-pass filter converts the PWM signal to an analog audio signal across the
loudspeakers.
The TDA8932 contains two independent half bridges with full differential input stages. The loudspeakers
can be connected in the following configurations:
• Mono full bridge (Bridge-Tied Load, BTL)
• Stereo half-bridge (Single-Ended, SE)
The TDA8932 contains common circuits to both channels such as the oscillator, all reference sources, the
mode functionality and a digital timing manager. The following protections are built-in: thermal fold back,
temperature, current and voltage protections.
8.2 Mode selection / interfacing
The TDA8932 can be switched in three operating modes via POWER UP and ENGAGE inputs:
• Sleep mode; with a very low supply current
• Mute mode; the amplifiers are switching idle (50% duty cycle), but the audio signal at the output is
suppressed by disabling the Vl-converter input stages. In this mode the reference currents and voltages
are present. The HVP capacitors have been charged to half the supply voltage (asymmetrical supply
only).
• Operating mode; the amplifiers are fully operational with output signal.
Both pins POWER UP and ENGAGE refer to pin CGND.
In the table 4 below the different modes are given as function of the voltages on the POWER UP and
ENGAGE pins.
Mode selection POWER UP ENGAGE
Sleep Vpower up< 0.8 V X (don’t care)
Mute 2 V < Vpower up < 6.5 V Note1 Vengage< 0.8 V Note1
Operating 2 V < Vpower up < 6.5 V Note1 3 V < Vengage < 6.5 V Note1
Table 4: Mode selection TDA8932
Note 1 in case of symmetrical supply conditions the voltage applied on the POWER UP and ENGAGE inputs must
never exceed the supply voltage VDDx

If the transition between mute and operating mode is controlled via a time-constant, the start-up will be
pop-free since the DC output offset voltage is applied gradually to the output between mute mode and
operating mode. The bias current setting of the VI converters is related to the voltage on the ENGAGE
pin; in mute mode the bias current setting of the VI converters is zero (VI converters disabled) and in
operating mode the bias current is at maximum.
The time constant required to apply the DC output offset voltage gradually between mute and
operating can be generated by applying a decoupling capacitor on the ENGAGE pin.
The value of the time-constant should be dimensioned for 500 ms using a capacitor of 1µF on the
ENGAGE pin.
8.3 Pulse width modulation frequency
The output signal of the amplifier is a PWM signal with a carrier frequency of approximately 320 kHz.
Using a 2nd-order LC demodulation filter in the application results in an analog audio signal across the
loudspeaker. The PWM switching frequency can be set by an external resistor Rosc connected between
pin OSCREF and VSSD. The carrier frequency can be set between 300 kHz and 500 kHz. Using an external
resistor of 39kΩ on the OSCREF pin, the carrier frequency is set to an optimized value of 320 kHz.
If two or more TDA8932 devices are used in the same audio application, it is recommended to
synchronize the switching frequency of all devices. This is described in chapter 17.4 External Clock.
8.4 Protections
The following protections are included in TDA8932:
• Thermal foldback (TF)
• Over temperature protection (OTP)
• Over current protection (OCP)
• Window protection (WP)
• Supply voltage protections
- Under voltage protection (UVP)
- Over voltage protection (OVP)
- Un Balance Protection (UBP)
The reaction of the device on the different fault conditions differs per protection and is described in the
following sections.
8.4.1 Thermal foldback
If the junction temperature Tj > 140 0C, then the gain is gradually reduced resulting in a smaller output
signal and less dissipation. At Tj > 1500C the outputs are fully muted.
8.4.2 Over temperature protection (OTP)
If the junction temperature Tj > 1600C, then the power stage will shut down immediately.

8.4.3 Over current protection (OCP)
When the loudspeaker terminals are short-circuited or if one of the demodulated outputs of the amplifier is
short-circuited to one of the supply lines, this will be detected by the over current protection (OCP).
If the output current exceeds the maximum output current of 4A, this current will be limited by the amplifier
to 4A while the amplifier outputs remain switching (the amplifier is NOT shut-down completely).
The amplifier can distinguish between an impedance drop of the loudspeaker and low-ohmic short across
the load or to one of the supply lines. This impedance threshold (Zth) depends on the supply voltage used.
When a short is made across the load causing the impedance to drop below the threshold level ( 40V is caused by other/external causes than the TDA8932 will shut down, but the
device can still be damaged since the supply voltage will remain > 40V in this case. The OVP protection is
not a supply clamp.
An additional Un Balance Protection (UBP) circuit compares the positive analog (VDDA) and the negative
analog (VSSA) supply voltage and is triggered if the voltage difference between them exceeds a certain
level. This level depends on the sum of both supply voltages. An expression for the unbalance threshold
level is as follows:
Vth(ubp) ≈ 0.25 x (VDDA + V
