TPA6120A2: About balence output current

Part Number: TPA6120A2
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OPA627

HI

  I would like to use one tpa6120  to get balence output voltage shown in the pic attched.  I am calculating the output current like this (assume  output resistance =0) :   20v/32=  0.625A.  So the tpa6120 will output 0.625A ?  and what is the relation bettwen 0.625A and 10v output voltage (U=I*R) ?

    and the total current of consumed is 0.625*2 or 0.625 ？

    Hi Liang,

    Total current consumption is not the same as output current. It depends on the efficiency.
    This is not a common use case of the device, so current consumption is not specified for this specific case. An EVM can be used to test the device performance and current consumption.

    I  found some product using this balance circuit， so I would like to design a first version directly，but it is better to have a estimattion of one chip power current . I am not sure if  a  700mA  margin is enough for one  chip.

    Liang,

    What package are you intended to use: DWP or RGY?
    I can provide some current consumption measurements obtained with EVM, if that helps you.
    Please let me know some specifics so I can test like:
    - You need to drive +/-10Vpp at the output?
    - Load impedance; is 16 and 32 ohm OK for testing?

    Hi  , that will be great helpful .

       The detail specifics is :   +-10v power supply for tpa6120,  consider the mini load 16o, and the input balance signal is acturely +-8.5v pp because of the PGA2130' s limit . there are two tpa6120 in my design, but we can take one chip for test .  (the whole system include 8 opa627, one ak4497,  two PGA2130,  and two TPA6120. all work in +-10v power, except ak4497 on 5v) I would like use  two +- 1.5 A ldo power supply.

    Hi Liang,

    Below are a couple tables with current values, please note that the current value in the table is the addition of both (positive and negative) supplies. Based on this I think your 700mA is a good current range for 1 unit.

    16Ω
      mA
    Idle 38
    1kHz @ 1%THD+N 550
    1kHz @ 10%THD+N 628

    32Ω
      mA
    Idle 38
    1kHz @ 1%THD+N 400
    1kHz @ 10%THD+N 450

    Best regards,

    Hi Thanks a lot !

     This is great helpful, and also I think this can be add to the datasheet as a common use . And one question ,  the 10% THD+N is too high for hifi use, so do you record the input pp voltage when the THD+N is 1% ?
