Type: Single-chip audio power amplifier (class AB, low-voltage)
Typical use: Portable audio devices, battery-powered speakers, phones, multimedia devices.
Package: Commonly available in SOP-8 or MSOP-8 (check supplier).
Supply voltage (Vcc): Typical range 2.5 V to 5.5 V (verify with specific vendor datasheet)
Output power: Up to ~3 W per channel into 4 Ω at 5 V (single-ended) — actual power depends on supply voltage, load impedance, and THD+N.
Quiescent current: Typically low (tens to hundreds of μA in standby; a few mA in active mode) — refer to datasheet section for exact figures.
Shutdown/Standby pin: Usually provided to reduce power consumption.
Gain: Fixed internally (commonly around 20–30 dB) or set by external resistors depending on variant.
Thermal protection: Integrated thermal shutdown and short-circuit protection.
Pop-and-click suppression: Soft-start and mute functions included on many revisions.
Inputs: Differential or single-ended input pins; input coupling capacitors recommended.
Outputs: BTL (bridge-tied load) outputs for speaker driving, may also support single-ended configurations with external components.
ESD protection: I/O protection on most commercial samples.
