TAS5624A DC Blocking Capacitor in SE Mode

Hello Kato-san,

We have not tested this but we would not expect the pop performance to be much different. The output of the Class-D can drive a lot of current into the output DC blocking capacitor and charge it at the PWM ramp rate set by C-Start value. Both 470uF and 10uF capacitors should charge at the same rate.

If anything, the pop performance of the 10uF will be better since the high-pass filter corner frequency is increased. This will help remove any startup noise that occurs below the cutoff frequency set by the DC blocking capacitor.

Best Regards,
Matt
