Package
MAX9830
The MAX9830 mono 2W Class D amplifier provides
Class AB audio performance with Class D efficiency.
Active emissions limiting edge rate and overshoot con-
trol circuitry greatly reduces EMI. A patented filterless
spread-spectrum modulation scheme eliminates the
need for output filtering found in traditional Class D
devices. These features reduce application component
count.
The MAX9830’s industry-leading 1.6mA at 5V, 1.2mA at
3.6V, quiescent current extends battery life in portable
applications.
The MAX9830 is available in an 8-pin TDFN (2mm x
2mm x 0.8mm) and is specified over the extended
-40°C to +85°C temperature range.
Applications
Notebook and Netbook Computers
Cellular Phones
MP3 Players
Portable Audio Players
VoIP Phones

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 T
A
= +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
= 4Ω, L = 33µH.
For R
L
= 8Ω, L = 68µH.
Note 3:
Amplifier inputs AC-coupled to PGND with C
IN
= 0.47µF.
Note 4:
Specified at room temperature with an 8Ω resistive load in series with a 68µH inductive load connected across BTL outputs.
Mode transitions are controlled by
SHDN.
