8.1 Input configuration
The input cut-off frequency is as follows:

Single-ended application: R

= 220 nF:
(2)
As shown in Equation 2, large capacitor values for the inputs are not necessary; therefore
switch-on delay during charging of the input capacitors can be minimized. This results in a
good low frequency response and good switch-on behavior.
The TFA9843AJ has clamps on the inputs. In Standby mode the voltage on the input pins
is clamped for voltages lower than 0.1 V. When the TFA9843AJ is in Mute, Volume
control or Operating mode (maximum gain) the input clamp voltage is 1 V (RMS).
8.2 Power amplifier
The power amplifier is a single-ended amplifier with an all NPN output stage, capable of
delivering a peak output current of 4 A.
8.2.1 Output power measurement
The output power as a function of the supply voltage is measured on the output pins at
THD=10%;seeFigure 7. The maximum output power is limited by the supply voltage of
26 V and the maximum available output current is 4 A repetitive peak current. A minimum
load of 3 is required for supply voltages > 22 V; see Figure 4. The output power is
measured with one channel driven.
