NAU8223
3.1W Stereo Filter-Free Class-D Audio Amplifier
1
Description
The NAU8223 is a stereo high efficiency filter-free Class-D audio amplifier, which is capable of driving a 4 load with
up to 3.1W output power. This device provides chip enable pin with extremely low standby current and fast start-up time
of 3.4ms. It has five selectable gain settings (i.e. 0dB, 6dB, 12dB, 18dB and 24dB), which can be controlled by a single
gain pin.
The NAU8223 is ideal for the portable applications of battery drive, as it has advanced features like 87dB PSRR, 91%
efficiency, ultra low quiescent current (i.e. 2.1mA at 3.7V for 2 channels) and superior EMI performance. It has the
ability to configure the inputs in either single-ended or differential mode.
NAU8223 is available in Miniature QFN-20 package and TSSOP-20 package.
