LM4923
1.1 Watt Fully Differential Audio Power Amplifier With
Shutdown Select
General Description
The LM4923 is a fully differential audio power amplifier
primarily designed for demanding applications in mobile
phones and other portable communication device applica-
tions. It is capable of delivering 1.1 watt of continuous aver-
age power to an 8
BTL load with less than 1% distortion
(THD+N) from a 5V
DC
power supply.
Boomer audio power amplifiers were designed specifically to
provide high quality output power with a minimal amount of
external components. The LM4923 does not require output
coupling capacitors or bootstrap capacitors, and therefore is
ideally suited for mobile phone and other low voltage appli-
cations where minimal power consumption is a primary re-
quirement.
The LM4923 features a low-power consumption shutdown
mode. To facilitate this, Shutdown may be enabled by logic
low. Additionally, the LM4923 features an internal thermal
shutdown protection mechanism.
The LM4923 contains advanced pop & click circuitry which
eliminates noises which would otherwise occur during
turn-on and turn-off transitions.

Note 1: All voltages are measured with respect to the ground pin, unless otherwise specified.
Note 2: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC and AC electrical specifications under particular test conditions which
guarantee specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the Operating Ratings. Specifications are not guaranteed for parameters where no limit
is given, however, the typical value is a good indication of device performance.
Note 3: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by T
JMAX
,
JA
, and the ambient temperature T
A
. The maximum
allowable power dissipation is P
DMAX
= (T
JMAX

) /

or the number given in Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. For the LM4923, see power
derating curve for additional information.
Note 4: Human body model, 100pF discharged through a 1.5k
resistor.
Note 5: Machine Model, 220pF 240pF discharged through all pins.
Note 6: Typicals are measured at 25C and represent the parametric norm.
Note 7: Datasheet min/max specification limits are guaranteed by design, test, or statistical analysis.
Note 8: 10
