EVAL_AUDIO_MA12040P

概要

Evaluation board - audio board using highly power efficient digital-input multilevel MERUS™ class D amplifier IC MA12040P

This audio evaluation kit contains all hardware and software elements that are needed to evaluate the highly power efficient MERUS™ digital input multilevel class D amplifier IC 2x40 W (MA12040P). The IC is specifically targeted for high performance filter-less and heatsink-free audio applications.

  • Configurable number of audio channels: 2xBTL or 4xSE or 1xBTL+2xSE
  • Audio input format: digital (I2S)
  • Recommended supply voltage (PVDD) range:  10 V to 28 V max.
  • Output noise level: <150 µVrms (AW)
  • Dynamic range:  >97 dB
  • Idle power consumption at 18 V PVDD: <350 mW

Summary of features

  • Configurable, single-voltage-supply amplifier board
  • PC programming interface board (w. USB connection)
  • Coils to be used in series with standard resistive loads (to mimic speaker impedances) for more accurate efficiency measurements
  • Full set of documentation, with a Windows based graphical user interface for PC installation and 1:1 measurement data for this specific amplifier board (all provided on the included memory stick)

 

Summary of benefits

  • The evaluation kit provides an easy to use test and validation setup for the MA12040P multilevel amplifier IC
  • Allows users to experience the unique sound quality of a multilevel class D amplifier with a digital I2S input and speaker setup of choice
  • Facilitates accurate power efficiency and audio performance measurements using standard audio analyzer hardware
  • Includes pre-recorded measurement data to help the user validate measurements from own test setup
