About home theater or installation speaker systems

Home theaters have been, and still are, a fundamental part of an audio-visual entertainment system that allows people to enjoy movies or music at home. Home theater speaker systems are also evolving into the form of installation speaker systems that are more customized and can be integrated into private rooms. These systems require high power and efficiency, must be easy to connect to and use, and must produce the highest-quality sound. Infineon's scalable Class D amplifier solutions can help you design powerful, energy-efficient, easy-to-use systems with extraordinary sound quality.

100 W-400 W MERUS™ multi-chip-module Class D audio amplifiers

Our MERUS™ multi-chip-module (MCM) Class D amplifiers integrate the record-proven Class D controllers and state-of-the-art low Rds(on) MOSFETs into small QFN packages, which offer ultra-high efficiency at full load without the need for bulky heatsinks. The MCM devices also offer flexible power supply configurations (single rail or split rail) and support multiple speaker load configurations (2x single-ended, 1x BTL, or 1x paralleled-single-ended) which reduces the number of low-pass-filters needed by half. 

Integrated Class D audio amplifier ICs
400 W - 3 kW MERUS™ discrete Class D audio solutions

Our MERUS™ discrete audio solutions include highly scalable amplifier driver IC and power MOSFET combinations, which offer superb audio performance and scalable output power up to 3000 W per channel. Combined with Infineon's wide power MOSFET portfolio and GaN HEMTs, MERUS™ discrete audio solutions have become the standard of high-efficiency, robust, and high-reliability industrial reference in the high-power Class D amplification market.

Power MOSFETs
AC-DC power conversion

Infineon’s latest generation of CoolSET™ AC-DC integrated power stages in fixed-frequency and quasi-resonant switching schemes offer increased robustness and outstanding performance. These AC-DC solutions are enabled by the integration of the latest 700 V and 800 V CoolMOS™ P7 superjunction MOSFET family in both DIP-7 and DSO-12 packages. These solutions are a perfect fit for your home theater or installation speaker systems.

Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® combos

Infineon's AIROC™ Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® combos integrate IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac WLAN and Bluetooth® in a single-chip solution that enables small-form-factor IoT designs. Combo solutions are available for both 1x1 SISO with up to 433 Mbps PHY data rates and 2x2 MIMO with up to 867 Mbps PHY data rates. These solutions can be coupled with external MCUs for RTOS, along with Linux on application processors to implement a complete Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® system. We support our Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® customers through our global network of IoT partners using production-ready, fully certified AIROC™ Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® combo modules based on both Linux and RTOS-based platforms.

Infineon's Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® combo solutions make it quick, simple, and cost-effective to connect your home theater or installation speaker system with other devices.
