2.6W Stereo Audio Power Amplifiers and
DirectDrive Headphone Amplifiers
General Description
The MAX9750/MAX9751/MAX9755 combine a stereo,
2.6W audio power amplifier and stereo DirectDrive
110mW headphone amplifier in a single device. The
headphone amplifier uses Maxim’s patented DirectDrive
architecture that produces a ground-referenced output
from a single supply, eliminating the need for large DC-
blocking capacitors, saving cost, space, and component
height. A high 90dB PSRR and low 0.01% THD+N
ensures clean, low-distortion amplification of the audio
signal.
The MAX9750 features an analog volume control, and a
BEEP input. The MAX9751 features a 2:1 input multiplexer,
allowing multiple audio sources to be selected. All devices
feature a single-supply voltage, a shutdown mode, logic-
selectable gain, and a headphone sense input. Industry-
leading click-and-pop suppression eliminates audible
transients during power and shutdown cycles.
The MAX9750/MAX9751/MAX9755 are offered in space-
saving, thermally efficient 28-pin thin QFN (5mm x 5mm
x 0.8mm) and 28-pin TSSOP-EP packages. Both devices
have thermal-overload and output short-circuit protec-
tion, and are specified over the extended -40°C to +85°C
temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
