GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The TDA1518BQ is an integrated class-B output amplifier in a 13-lead single-in-line (SIL) plastic power package. The device is primarily developed for car radio applications.

FEATURES

• Requires very few external components

• Flexibility in usestereo as well as mono BTL

• High output power (without bootstrap)

• Low offset voltage at output (important for BTL)

• Fixed gain

• Good ripple rejection

• Mute/stand-by switch

• Load dump protection

• A.C. and d.c. short-circuit-safe to ground and VP

• Thermally protected

• Reverse polarity safe

• Capability to handle high energy on outputs (VP= 0 V)

• No switch-on/switch-off plop

• Flexible leads

• Low thermal resistance

• Identical inputs (inverting and non-inverting)

• Compatible with TDA1516BQ (except gain).
