Typical RF waveform of a TDMA/GSM cellphone High-Frequency RF in 217Hz bursts Amplifier Outputs (Bandwidth limited andlt;20 MHz) Amplifier Outputs (Bandwidth limited andlt;20 MHz) Inverting Amplifier (A) Output Inverting Follower (B) Output High-frequency signal gated by a 217Hz square wave No RF Rectification due to differential feedback of audio amplifier. The BTL (Fully Differential) Amplifier The BTL (Master/Slave) Amplifier Buzzing and Clicking Noise Audio Amplifier Design Fully-Differential for Superior Noise Rejection See speaker notes for more information

Slide6: 

No Common-mode Noise Rejection on input Gain setting amplifier Inverting amplifier Noise on input Noise on output Noise on output 1 Noise coupled onto inputs will be amplified to the outputs RF noise coupled onto outputs will cause RF Rectification – BAD! 1 2 2 2 No feedback to input signal = NOISE on the outputs!

DirectPath™ Advantage with 16-W Load: 

DirectPath™ Advantage with 16-W Load VDD = 3.3V TPA6040A4 headphone Traditional HP Driver CO = 22uF Traditional HP Driver CO = 44uF Traditional HP Driver CO = 69uF Bass response very limited using traditional HP drivers – DC blocking capacitors also block bass! Amplitude vs. Frequency See speaker notes for more information

Similar Performance Under No Load Condition: 

Similar Performance Under No Load Condition TPA6040A4 headphone VDD = 3.3V Traditional HP Driver CO = 22uF Traditional HP Driver CO = 44uF Traditional HP Driver CO = 69uF Amplitude vs. Frequency With no load, the high-pass filter is formed with the blocking capacitor and a high-impedance probe…little effect.
