APPLICATION NOTES
Example of the TDA1563Q in a car radio system
solution
The PCB shown here is used to demonstrate an audio
system solution with Philips Semiconductors devices for
car audio applications. The board includes the SAA7705H:
a high-end CarDSP (Digital Signal Processor), the
TDA3617J: a voltage regulator providing 9 V, 5 V and
3.3 V outputs, and two TDA1563Qs to provide four 25 W
power outputs. A complete kit (application report, software
and demo board) of this “car-audio chip-set demonstrator”
is available.
The TDA1563Q is a state of the art device, which is
different to conventional amplifiers in power dissipation
because it switches between SE mode and conventional
BTL mode, depending on the required output voltage
swing. As a result, the PCB layout is more critical than with
conventional amplifiers.
NOTES AND LAYOUT DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The TDA1563Q mutes automatically during switch-on
and switch-off and suppresses biasing clicks coming
from the CarDSP circuit preceding the power amplifier.
Therefore, it is not necessary to use a plop reduction
circuit for the CarDSP. To mute or to enlarge the mute
time of the system, the voltage at the mode pin of the
amplifiers should be kept between 2 V and 3 V.
2. The input reference capacitor at pin 3 is specified as
1 µF but has been increased to 10 µF to improve the
switch-on plop performance of the amplifiers. By doing
this, the minimum switch-on time increases from
standby, via internal mute, to operating from 150 ms to
600 ms.
3. It is important that the copper tracks to and from the
electrolytic capacitors (SE capacitors and supply
capacitors) are close together. Because of the
switching principle, switching currents flow here.
Combining electrolytic capacitors in a 4-channel
application is not recommended.
4. Filters at the outputs are necessary for stability
reasons. The filters at output pins 8 and 10 to ground
should be connected as close as possible to the
device (see layout of PCB).

Product specification
TDA1563Q
5. Connect the supply decoupling capacitors of 220 nF
as closely as possible to the TDA1563Qs.
6. Place the tracks of the differential inputs as close
together as possible. If disturbances are injected at the
inputs, they will be amplified 20 times. Oscillation may
occur if this is not done properly.
7. The SE line output signal of the CarDSP here is
offered as a quasi differential input signal to the
amplifiers by splitting the 100 Ω unbalance series
resistance into two 47 Ω balanced series resistances.
The return track from the minus inputs of the amplifiers
are not connected to ground (plane) but to the line out
reference voltage of the CarDSP, VrefDA.
8. The output signal of the CarDSP needs an additional
1st order filter. This is done by the two balanced series
resistances of 47 Ω (see note 7) and a ceramic
capacitor of 10 nF. The best position to place these
10 nF capacitors is directly on the input pins of the
amplifiers. Now, any high frequency disturbance at the
inputs of the amplifiers will be rejected.
9. Only the area underneath the CarDSP is a ground
plane. A ground plane is necessary in PCB areas
where high frequency digital noise occurs. The audio
outputs are low frequency signals. For these outputs,
it is better to use two tracks (feed and return) as closely
as possible to each other to make the disturbances
common mode. The amplifiers have differential inputs
with a very high common mode rejection.
10. The ground pin of the voltage regulator is the
reference for the regulator outputs. This ground
reference should be connected to the ground plane of
the CarDSP by one single track. The ground plane of
the CarDSP may not be connected to “another” ground
by a second connection.
11. Prevent power currents from flowing through the
ground connection between CarDSP and voltage
regulator. The currents in the ground from the
amplifiers are directly returned to the ground pin of the
demo board. By doing this so, no ground interference
between the components will occur.

Advantages of high efficiency

• Power conversion improvement (power supply)
Usually, the fact that the reduction of dissipation is handbook, halfpage VP = 14.4 V
Power
directly related to supply current reduction is neglected. dissipation
One advantage is less voltage drop in the whole supply reduction of 40%
Supply at Po = 1.6 W
chain. Another advantage is less stress for the coil in the current
reduction of
supply line. Even the adapter or supply circuit remains 32%
cooler than before as a result of the reduced heat
dissipation in the whole chain because more supply
current will be converted to output power.
Same junction Same heatsink
• Power dissipation reduction temperature
choice
size
This is the best known advantage of high efficiency
amplifiers.
• Heatsink size reduction
Heatsink Heatsink
The heatsink size of a conventional amplifier may be size temperature
reduced by approximately 50% at VP = 14.4 V when the reduction of reduction of
50% 40%
TDA1563Q is used. In this case, the maximum heatsink
temperature will remain the same. MGS824

• Heatsink temperature reduction

The power dissipation and the thermal resistance of the
heatsink determine the heatsink temperature rise. When
the same heatsink size is used as in a conventional
amplifier, the maximum heatsink temperature
decreases and also the maximum junction temperature,
which extends the life of this semiconductor device.
The maximum dissipation with music-like input signals
decreases by 40%.
It is clear that the use of the TDA1563Q saves a significant
amount of energy. The maximum supply current
decreases by approximately 32%, which reduces the
dissipation in the amplifier as well in the whole supply
chain. The TDA1563Q allows a heatsink size reduction of
approximately 50% or a heatsink temperature decrease of
40% when the heatsink size is not changed.
Fig.27 Heatsink design
Advantage of the concept used by the TDA1563Q
The TDA1563Q is highly efficient under all conditions,
because it uses a SE capacitor to create a non-dissipating
half supply voltage. Other concepts rely on both input
signals being the same in amplitude and phase. With the
concept of an SE capacitor, it does not matter what kind of
signal processing is done on the input signals.
For example, amplitude difference, phase shift or delays
between both input signals, or other DSP processing, have
no impact on the efficiency.

SOLDERING
Introduction to soldering through-hole mount
packages
This text gives a brief insight to wave, dip and manual
soldering. A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be
found in our “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit
Packages” (document order number 9398 652 90011).
Wave soldering is the preferred method for mounting of
through-hole mount IC packages on a printed-circuit
board.
Soldering by dipping or by solder wave
The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is
260 °C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact
with the joints for more than 5 seconds.
The total contact time of successive solder waves must not
exceed 5 seconds.
The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but
the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the
specified maximum storage temperature (Tstg(max)). If the
printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling
may be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the
temperature within the permissible limit.
Manual soldering
Apply the soldering iron (24 V or less) to the lead(s) of the
package, either below the seating plane or not more than
2 mm above it. If the temperature of the soldering iron bit
is less than 300 °C it may remain in contact for up to
10 seconds. If the bit temperature is between
300 and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.
