The DRV601EVM customer evaluation module (EVM) demonstrates the integrated circuits DRV601RTJfrom Texas Instruments (TI).

The DRV601 is a stereo line driver designed to allow the removal of the DC-blocking capacitors forreduced component count and cost. The DRV601 is ideal for single-supply electronics where size andcost are critical design parameters ().

The DRV601 is capable of driving 2 Vrms into a 600- Ωload at 3.3-V supply. The DRV601 has externalgain-setting resistors, that support a gain range of -1 V/V to -10 V/V and line outputs that have ±8 kV IECESD protection. The DRV601 has independent shutdown control for the left and right audio channels.

This EVM is configured with two RCA phone input connectors and two RCA phone output connectors.Power supply is connected via a two-pin 2,54-mm pin header.

The EVM is configured with a gain of –2 V/V.

2.1 Electrostatic Discharge Warning

2.2 Unpacking the EVM

Quick Setup Guide

Many of the components on the DRV601EVM are susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD).Customers are advised to observe proper ESD handling precautions when unpacking and handling theEVM, including the use of a grounded wrist strap at an approved ESD workstation.

CAUTION

Failure to observe ESD handling procedures may result in damage to EVMcomponents.

On opening the DRV601EVM package, ensure that the following items are included:•1 DRV601EVM board with one DRV601RTJ•1 pc. PurePath Digital™ CD-ROM

If either of these items is missing, contact the Texas Instruments Product Information Center nearest youto inquire about a replacement.

Shutdown

To power up the EVM, one power supply is needed. The power supply is connected to the EVM using a2-pin, 2,54-mm pin header, J10.

Table 2. Recommended Supply Voltage

Description Voltage Limitations Current Requirement Cable

Power supply 1.8 V to 4.5 V 0.3 A

CAUTION

Applying voltages above the limitations given in Table 2 may cause permanentdamage to your hardware.

For minimum click and pop during power on and power off, the shutdown pin should be kept low. Thepreferred power-up/down sequence is shown in Figure 4 .

Figure 4. Power-Up/Down Sequence

The charge pump flying capacitor, C13, serves to transfer charge during the generation of the negativesupply voltage. The PVSS capacitor must be at least equal to the charge pump capacitor in order to allowmaximum charge transfer. Low ESR capacitors are an ideal selection, and a value of 1 µF is typical.Capacitor values smaller than 1 µF can be used, but the maximum output can be reduced. It is thereforerecommended to validate the design with thorough testing.

4.2 Decoupling Capacitors

4.3 Supply Voltage Limiting at 4.5 V

4.4 Using the DRV601 as a Second-Order Low-Pass Filter

R1 R3

Component Selection

The DRV601 is a DirectPath™ line driver amplifier that requires adequate power supply decoupling toensure that the noise and total harmonic distortion (THD) are low. A good low equivalent-series-resistance(ESR) ceramic capacitor, C12, typical 1 µF, placed as close as possible to the device V

leads worksbest. Placing this decoupling capacitor close to the DRV601 is important for the performance of theamplifier. For filtering lower frequency noise signals, a 10- µF or greater capacitor placed near the audioamplifier also helps, but is not required in most applications because of the high PSRR of this device.

The charge pump circuit does apply ripple current on the V

line, and a LC or RC filter may be needed ifnoise-sensitive audio devices share the V

supply.

The DRV601 has a build-in charge pump which serves to generate a negative rail for the line driver.Because the line driver operates from a positive and negative voltage supply, circuitry has beenimplemented to protect the devices in the amplifier from an overvoltage condition. Once the supply isabove 4.5 V, the DRV601 can shut down in an overvoltage protection mode to prevent damage to thedevice.

Many of the audio DACs used today require an external low-pass filter, to remove band noise. This ispossible with the DRV601, and the EVM is configured as a 40-kHz second-order, active Butterworth filter.The topology chosen is the MFB Single-Ended. Further, the DRV601 needs a ac-coupling capacitor toremove dc-content from the source.

Figure 5. Second-Order, Active Low-Pass Filter

The component values can be calculated with the help of the TI FilterPro™ program available on:http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/filterpro.html

In Table 3 , various proposals for the filter and gain settings can be found.

The resistor values should be low value to get low noise, but should be high value to get a small sizeac-coupling capacitor. With the proposed values, 15k, 30k, and47k, a DYR of 105 dB can be achievedwith a small 1- µF input ac-coupling capacitor.

5 Layout Recommendations

5.1 Exposed Pad on the DRV601RJT Package

5.2 SGND and PGND Connections

Layout Recommendations

The exposed metal pad on the DRV601RTJ package can be soldered to a pad on the PCB in order toimprove reliability. The pad on the PCB should be allowed to float and not be connected to ground orpower. Connecting this pad to power or ground prevents the device from working properly because it isconnected internally to PVSS.

The SGND and PGND pins of the DRV601 must be routed separately back to the decoupling capacitor inorder to provide proper device operation. If the SGND pins are connected directly to each other, the partfunctions without risk of failure, but the noise and THD performance can be reduced.
