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.

Note 1:
All devices are 100% production tested at +25°C. All temperature limits are guaranteed by design.
Note 2:
Testing performed with a resistive load in series with an inductor to simulate an actual speaker load. For R
L
= 8Ω, L = 68μH.
For R
L
= 4Ω, L = 33μH.
Note 3:
PSRR is specified with the amplifier inputs connected to AGND through C
IN
.
Note 4:
The MAX9704 continuous 8Ω and 16Ω power measurements account for thermal limitations of the 32-pin TQFN-EP pack-
age. Continuous 4Ω power measurements account for short-circuit protection of the MAX9703/MAX9704 devices.
