TPA6204A1: Speaker amplifier circuit

Part Number: TPA6204A1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPA2026D2, TPA3111D1, TINA-TI

Tool/software:

I am looking for a replacement for the tpa6204a1. The purpose of the circuit is to drive a speaker. The input is analogue, and class AB amplifier is preferred but class D can be considered as well.
I think the output power of the amplifier should be higher than the rated input power of the speaker if I am not mistaken. So maybe around 6 or 7W output power.

Speaker specs:
Rated Input Power 3 Watts
Max Input Power 4 Watts
Impedance 8 ohm

I would appreciate your help to select the right power amplifier for this speaker. Please let me know if you need any further details.

  • Hey Rabah, 

    On ti.com, navigate to audio speaker amp portfolio. I have circled how to get there in pink.

    I set the load and output power filters to match your speaker spec, TPA2026D2 would be a good choice.

    I have attached an image for guide.

    I hope I was able to help.

  • Hi there,

    That was very helpful I found the right power amplifier (TPA3111D1), and it has a PSPICE MODEL. How do i create a model of the TPA3111D1 on LTSPICE using the library provided by TI, considering the model has multiple subckts ?
    I was able to create all the subckts but i am not sure how to connect them together.
    Or should I change the code to create one model?

  • Hey Rabah, 

    The scope of this thread covers alternative recommendations for TPA6204A1.

    As far as useable TPA3111D1 SPICE models, we only support PSpice Models and TINA Models not LTSPICE. 

    TINA-TI is an easy to use tool. Use this guide to get started.

    I ran a quick transient simulation using the TPA3111D1 TINA-TI reference design.

      

    I hope this was informative.
