What’s that calledClass “D”

In learing political science, there is this coursecalled “AB political science”. In Amplfier, there isalso called Class AB - simply, the combination ofclass A and B - a compromised performance for aHi-Fi (High Fidelity) music. In class A, the ampli-fier is in full conduction and consumed much power,it is the best performance in terms of distortion (high-est music fidelity). In class B, the amplifier is offconduction and will conduct only when there is asufficient audio input signal, making less powerconsuption but notorious in distortion (lowest mu-sic fidelity).

To compromise between usage of power and mu

sic fidelity, the class AB scheme is born. If youheard the stereo of your neighbor sounds so good,that is called Hi-fi or High-Fidelity. If, in some in-stances you heard your neighbor complaining be-cause of a 3rd party involved in their relationship,that is called “infidelity”.

So what is Class D? I bet - “D” means digital, notthe big Daddy-D at 1diy. Class D comes with digi-tal processing, not like the class A,B, AB, G and Hand other class which are analog processing.

If it is called digital - it process digitally, and whatbenefit we can get, if it is process digitally? It im-proved the efficiency, the input power from thetransfomer is processed at about 90%, which lesswaste of power loss during the amplification , ascompared to analog processing of about 45% effi-ciency.

In DR100W_PA, we voted the Philips solution(NXP), a chipset claimed to delivered 100Wrms/channel at a specified test condition. The chipsetis the TDA8920BTH - a class D digital amplifier.

There is also called class T. This is another audiodigital amplfier with different digitral processing tech-nology, known as Tripath’s propriety Digital PowerProcessing (DPPTM) Technology, how is that?Google the TA2022 Tripath chipset to know moreabout class T.

How Class D AmplifierWorks?

Philips documented the TDA8920BTH in detailed,pin description, block diagram, processing defini-tion and applications circuit.

I would suggest that you should refer to this docu-ment, TDA8920B (do not use the TDA8920, itshould comes with a “B” like, TDA8920B), that is a34 pages to read and know about the Philips (NXP)TDA8920BTH - digital class D power amplifier.

How Class D differsfrom Class ABPersonally, this is just my own understanding (so,please, if I am not right, please send an email [email protected] and correct my mis-take - “salamat”). Let’s see the block diagram ofanalog process and digital process as shown inFigure 5.

Analog Process:The simplified illustration of analog process is shownin Figure 5 - a. The input signal of sine wave is fedinto the amplifier input stage, it then increased inamplitude by the Driver stage and finally fed forpower amplification by the Output Stage. The out-put stage will generate heat in processing the re-quired amplitude, it requires a heatrsink to effec-tively dissipate the heat, the bigger the heatsinkthe faster the ehat dissipate. If the heat generatedon the output stage will not dissipate and it willcontinue build up, a thermal run-away might occurwhere the output stage will damage. Most ICamplifier have a thermal sensor that will shut downthe amplifier when overheat occurs.

Digital Process:For digital processing, the same sinewave is fedinto the amplifier input stage, the analog siganl isconverted into Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) thenfed into the Control and Handshake block to drivethe High Driver Stage. An external low pass filter isrequired to recover back the digitized analog am-plified sinewave before it can be fed-in across thespeaker.

What is remarkbly noticed with digital amplifier isthat, the heatsink are small, due to the fact that,digital amplifier process the input power by about90%, it means, close 10% is generated as heat,so it reauires smaller heatsink or no heatsink re-quired at all. While in analog process, it requiresheatsink because about 50% of the input power iswaisted and converted into heat.

A good example between analog and digital pro-cess is the Linear and Switch Mode Power Supply(SMPS), the Linear Power supply requires heatsinkto dissipate the wasted power while the SMPS re-quires very little heatsink.

DR100W_PADesign Source:The DR100W power amplifier schematic diagramis shown in Figure 7. It is basically the same asthe recommended by Philips on Figure 9, page 21of the Philips datasheet.

Well . . . . . Philips makes our design work easyby offering recommended circuit, sounds like plugand play design, making the design EASY, FASTand FUN (but not Affordable since this IC still ex-pensive to us) not like in the 70’s - you start fromscratch. China market offer the component sys-tems . . . . making the whole thing easy.

A “bit” explanation how the TDA8920BTH works according to the DR100W designThe DR100W_PA solution is highly Integrated so-lution packed into a single IC in HSOP24 SMDpackage, see Figure 6 below.

The stereo input signal is fed into the input stagevia pins 8,9 and 5,4 for stereo, and it is internallyprocessed. I do not know “exactly” the signal be-ing processed under the blocks of PWM, Controland Shake and the High Power Driver Stage. WhatI know is that, the analog input signal is convertedinto a PWM with carrier Frequency between 300KHzto 350KHz.

The input signal which is converted into PWM willthen passed to the Control and Handshake blockto drive the High Power Driver stage to provide highlevel switching signal about the same level as thepower supply.

At +28Vdc supply, the output signal at pins 16(and 21) is high power PWM about 28Vrms asshown in Figure 8.

Figure 6 : The TDA8920BTH HSOP 24 Package

From the output waveform, we can see how thePWM react to a varying sinewave input signal. Thewaveform in Figure 7 is low input signal (low level),the waveform shown in Figure 8 is medium inputsignal,

Figure 7 : The PWM output at pin 16

Figure 8 : The PWM output at pin 16 at medium input signal

The waveform in Figure 9 is relatively high inputsinewave signal causing the output nearly at clip-ping. Now, can you see the difference how thehigh powered PWM looks like? We have idea nowhow the processing inside the IC.

Another thing you might notice in Figures 7,8 and9 is the Vrms voltage of the PWM, as :

Figure 7 : 28.0 VrmsFigure 8 : 27.9 VrmsFigure 9 : 25.8 Vrms

At low input signal, it consumed just little powerfrom the Power Supply, at high input signal, thesystem will draw large power from the power sup-ply, unfortunately my power supply cannot deliverthe power required by the TDA8920BTH, so thevoltage will drop, the result of this is that, theTDA8920BTH cannot deliver the real power to theload. I conclude then that, a good Power Supplyis required to drive the TDA8920BTH into full power.

Now, the output of TDA8920BTH is high powerdigital PWM as shown in Figure 7,8 and 9 cannotbe used to directly fed into the speaker, otherwiseyour speaker will complain of feeding him an un-clean sinewave signal, just like a baby is expect-ing a milk where in fact you give him a vodka (whata wild explanation, I guess) the baby will definitelycry, for your speaker I guess it will heat up andeventually burned the voice coil.

To return back the sinewave signal, it need a 2ndorder LC filter, the result is shown in Figure 10,indeed, a boosted replica of the input signal.

Figure 9 : The PWM output at pin 16 at nearly the maximum power

What I noticed is that, if you zoomed the signal,you see that, there are other signal “ride on” intothe sinewave as shown in Figure 10, I tried to cap-ture it but then, my camera gone crazy, wheyyyy!see Figure 11.

Actually, in real world, the LC filter did not filter out(removed) all the high frequency carrier of the PWM,a 349 KHz signal still “ride” into the 1KHz sinewave,and eventually it fed into the speaker.

Is this good or bad? Definitely it is “not desirable”.This can be minimized by adding another filter whichwill further “filter” the high frequency. With theDR100W_PA design, the system is not perfectbut it can function as it was intended.

The 349 KHz cannot be heard by our ears, it willnot contribute also as high frequency noise (I amtalking to the DR100W_PA hardware including thePCB design), thus, it is accepted.

Here, an output signal of the DR100W_PA whenboth channel driven by 4 ohms load with SMPSpower supply. See Figure 13.

This waveform give us an idea how clean (how dirty)the waveform at a certain voltage swing (6.18 vrms)at the load. This voltage swing at the load pro-vides real power of 9.8Watt for that channel, thatis, 6.18x8.18 / 3.89, my load resistance accord-ing to my ohmmeter is 3.98 ohm. Oh! This is notthe maximum power it can deliver, its just a mid-level power for “soak test” - a test condition thatnormally we used most of the time. This test per-form for 24 hours (1diy standard) and yet, we got awarm heatsink temperature. Oh yeah, 20Wrmsstereo at your home is enough for most users.

Disecting the Design :I should say, lets have the design review............

(a) Removing non-standard capacitorThe design can say low cost, since it removed thoseexpensive components. In the Philips document -Figure 9, page 21 - application schematic, theCapacitor C8, C16 and C38 were removed.

These capacitor requires higher voltage more than60Vdc, for the standard capacitor voltage value inthe market, perhaps it is 20Vdc, and it is expen-sive.

(b) Removing the Ferrite Bead at Supply LineThe Ferrite Bead were also removed, please seeFigure 9, page 21 - application schematic, L1 andL2 Bead.

In our applications, the filter used is 10,000uF / 35volts.

conCEPTDR100WEqualizer, Tone Control, PowerAmplifier, MCU Programming

These components were intended for Power Sup-ply filtering. What is the expected effect after re-moving these components? Well, it remains un-known and to be known after subjecting into anintensive testing including reliability test.

(c) Protection CircuitIn the DR100W concept - this is called ProtectionModule or DR100W_PM. This is a circuit blockthat will prevent the speaker from damage whenthe amplifier gone crazy -- when the dc voltageoutput at the speaker (dc offset voltage) is higherthan what the speaker can handle (frankly, we havenot experienced yet our DR100W amplifier to acti-vate the protection circuit).

Let see the circuit in Figure 7. Google is reallycool, please use it to download the PC1237 or theNTE7100 document because it will help us a lot inthe explanation - a details information can be foundon the datasheet.

In our applications, we decided to use +12V a regu-lator power supply using the LM7812, though theIC can be used up to 60Vdc.

The interesting part here is the Overload function(pin 1) which I am interested how it function andwhat it can do - - - it is unfortunate that, due topatent problem (see page 5 of the NEC document),it is not included.......... The team redefined thefunction of this pin, it says that at 0.6V, it will latchup the relay (break the relay -- like disconnectingthe speaker from the amplifier). Using a TTL signalfrom a MCU of the DR100W_CM, we can com-mand the Protection Module (PM) to forced to dis-connect the speaker from the amplifier by sendinga logic 1 signal, and, at standby mode, we cansend a logic 0 so that the PM will not consume toomuch power.

If you have other external application circuit thatmake pin 1 to function as it was originally con-ceive, or you designed a circuit that can make itwork to “protect” the speaker like Clipping detec-tion, I would be glad if you can share it with us,thank you.

Furthermore, we wanted that every module is su-pervised by the DR100W_CM, our prototype useMCU to reset the PM via its pin 3. When the pin 2detect “+” or “-” high offset voltage, it will discon-nect the speaker. To connect back the speakerwhile making it sure that the dc offset voltage isnot preset, we used MCU. (Actually - is a part ofthe Learning process discussed on DR100W con-cept) but then, we learned that, the uPC1237HAcan do that by itself, so, we let this IC handle theresetting for simplicity.

We used the reset, that, when the dc offset is gone,it will latch (reset itself) without any external trig-ger. The other reset available is that, you need toreset the Protection circuit - power off and poweron the supply.

DR100W_PAPower Requirements

According to Philips specifications, you must usea voltage of +/-12.5 to +/-30Vdc for the operation ofthe TDA8920BTH.

That is the voltage, what about the current? Thespecifications did not “really specify” the currentneeded to produce a desired output.

For example, it says that, at +/-27Vdc with 4 ohmsspeaker load, you can get 86W with a 10% distor-tion, again, what is the current needed? Or, whatwould be the transformer current rating to producethis power?

Our visiting friend (a former 1diy member) makehis hand dirty on our work bench, his test showwith different power transformer as shown in Figure17.

He noticed that, EI and Toroid transformer will tendto decreased the voltage being supply to theDR100W_PA board at maximum power, he con-cluded that, these power transformer cannot de-liver the exact “power” the TDA8920BTH requires.(Pertaining to our transformer only, EI core = 18-0-18Vac @ 3 Amp., Toroid = 20-0-20Vac, 250W,SMPS = 30-0-30Vdc @ 3.5 Amp)

Please note, however that, this is only true at maxi-mum output signal, where, in reality, you will notgoing to maximized your power amplifier alwaysfor a normal listening pleasure, unless, you are inthe battle of the band and strictly hate that yourPA cannot deliver 100Wrms per channel.

Only the Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) candeliver the greatest power, but still cannot obtainedthe 100Wrms per channel at 4 ohms load (200WrmsStereo) as specified by DR100W conCEPT speci-fications, not even the Philips (NXP) specificationsof 86Wrms per channel.

Well.... well... well.... I will leave that for the Tweakand Modifications (if there is any) - something thatwe can diy to do - to perform trial and error modifi-cations with an aim to improved it.

DR100W_PA Tweak & Modification

The DR100W power amplifier circuit design is notperfect in terms of performance and specifications,thus, a room for improvement is “waiting” on tehcurrent design.

If you like to make it the best, you need to adjustsome component value, perhaps add componentsand see if you can benchmark or supass the Philipsspecifications described in their datasheet.

Those values and modification, we do not know yet,but we will play around with this module, we willdo Trial and Error to make it the best - at least tomy level and expectation as diyers.

In Figure 16, you can find the mode control but notspecified exactly how to use it. Going back toPhilips datasheet, on page 21 Figure 9, pleaselook at S1 and S2, when S2 is close which forcedpin 6 to logic zero, the amplifier will be in thestandbymode.

If S2 is closed, the mode pin will be in Mute state.By design, we can also perform a digital mute onthe part of the DR100_EQ - which we believe abetter choose of mute. Real life applications willdictate which mute will be used.
