IRAUDAMP21: 90W ~ 135W x 2 @ 2Ω, ±12 ~ 22V in

The IRAUDAMP21 reference design is a two-channel, 90W/ch (2Ω/±18V; no heatsink)/ 135W/ch (2Ω/±22V; *with heatsink) half-bridge Class D audio power amplifier. This reference design demonstrates how to use the IR4321 IC, implement protection circuits, and design an optimum PCB layout using PowIRaudio integrated Class D IC. This reference design does not require heatsink or fan cooling for normal operation (one-eighth of continuous rated power).

The reference design provides all the required housekeeping power supplies for ease of use. The two-channel design is scalable for power and the number of channels.

The IR43x1 integrates PWM controller and digital audio MOSFETs forming a high performance Class D audio amplifier. As a result of fully optimized MOSFETs co-packed with a dedicated controller IC, the IR43X1operates without mechanical heatsink attached in a typical music playback usage. High voltage ratings and noise immunity in the controller IC ensures reliable operation over various environmental conditions. A small 5x6 mm PQFN package enhances the benefit of smaller size of Class D topology. The IR43x1 are a lead-free, ROHS compliant.
