LM4871: Need support in calculating the power supply required

Part Number: LM4871

Dear team,

I am planning to use LM4871MX for my design. I am planning to operate the device at 3.3V and device is expected to drive at 8ohms loads.

How much current should be supplied at 3.3v rails for proper operation.

  • Hi Amal,

    You can estimate the power supply requirements based on the data from power dissipation vs output power plot in D/S Figure 20. Adding both the dissipated and output power you estimate the total power consumed by the amplifier, then based on supply V you can calculate supply A.
