19-3860; Rev 0; 12/05 EVALUATION KITAVAILABLEQuad Audio Line Driver with 3VRMS OutputMAX9727General DescriptionFeatures The MAX9727 quad audio line driver with 3VRMS output is o 2.7V to 5.5V Single-Supply Operation ideal for portable audio devices where board space and o High 100dB PSRR cost is at a premium. The device uses Maxim’s DirectDriveTM architecture that produces a ground-refer- o 109dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) enced output from a single supply, eliminating the need o Ground-Referenced Outputs for large DC-blocking capacitors and saving cost, board o No Audible Clicks or Pops at Power-Up/Down space, and component height. A high 100dB PSRR and low 0.0005% THD+N ensures clean, low-distortion ampli- o Differential Inputs fication of the audio signal. Each MAX9727 amplifier can o 3VRMS into 1kΩ Load at 5V provide 3VRMS to a 1kΩ load with less than 0.003% o 2VRMS into 1kΩ Load at 3.3V THD+N while operating from a single +5V supply. Each MAX9727 amplifier can provide 2V o 3mA Supply Current Per Channel RMS to a 1kΩ load with less than 0.003% THD+N while operating from a single o Unity-Gain Stable +3.3V supply. o 100nA Low-Power Shutdown Mode A shutdown input disables the amplifiers and reduces o CLOAD Drive > 220pF quiescent current consumption to less than 100nA. The MAX9727 features Maxim’s comprehensive click-and- o ±8kV HBM ESD-Protected Outputs pop suppression circuitry that reduces audible clicks and Ordering Information pops during startup and shutdown.
