Product details
Overview
TDA1910 from STMicroelectronics is a monolithic 10W Class-AB audio power amplifier in Multiwatt11 vertical package, designed for high-fidelity TV and Hi-Fi applications. It delivers 10W output at 24V/4Ω with ≤0.5% THD per DIN 45500, features integrated muting, thermal shutdown, and achieves 65% efficiency at 12W output.
For engineers reviewing the TDA1910 datasheet, TDA1910 pinout, TDA1910 application, or TDA1910 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs, muting circuit behavior, thermal resistance (3°C/W junction-to-case), and real-world design values including input sensitivity (220mV @ 24V/4Ω), SVR (60dB), and S/N ratio (103dB).
Technical Context
The TDA1910 employs a fully complementary Class-AB output stage with internal bias stabilization and direct-coupled feedback architecture. Its open-loop gain is 75dB, closed-loop gain fixed at 30dB (±0.5dB), and small-signal bandwidth spans 10Hz–120kHz with power bandwidth of 40Hz–15kHz at ≤5% distortion.
Muting is implemented via voltage-controlled impedance switching at Pin 11: applying 0–1.3V enables >60dB attenuation by reducing Pin 1 input resistance to ~10Ω; 1.9–4.7V disables muting with Pin 1 resistance rising to ~200kΩ. Thermal shutdown activates at 110–125°C case temperature, limiting junction temperature to 150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Power | 10W @ 24V/4Ω, d ≤ 0.5% (DIN 45500 compliant) |
| Supply Voltage Range | 8–30V - supports 24V nominal TV/HDTV rails with 30V transient tolerance |
| THD+N | 0.2% @ 10W/4Ω - ensures low audible distortion in mid-power Hi-Fi output |
| Supply Rejection | 60dB @ 100Hz ripple - suppresses power supply noise without external regulation |
| Input Sensitivity | 220mV RMS @ 24V/4Ω/12W - matches standard line-level preamp outputs |
| Thermal Resistance | 3°C/W junction-to-case - enables heatsink sizing for 20W max dissipation at 90°C case |
| Signal-to-Noise Ratio | 103dB @ 10KΩ source, A-weighted - exceeds broadcast-grade audio requirements |
Pinout & Package
Package: Multiwatt11 Vertical (11-pin single-in-line, screw-mount compatible, thermally enhanced metal tab). Mounting requires silicon grease interface to heatsink; no electrical isolation needed.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Input (Inverting) | High-impedance node (60–100kΩ) whose resistance varies with muting state - used for tone control or signal gating |
| 2 | Ground | Power ground reference for all internal stages and output coupling |
| 3 | Bootstrap | Connects to C7 (47µF) to extend positive swing headroom and reduce crossover distortion |
| 4 | Non-inverting Input | DC-biased at Vs/2 via internal divider; accepts AC-coupled line-level signals |
| 5 | Feedback | Connects to R2/R3 network to set closed-loop gain (30dB typical) |
| 6 | Output | Class-AB push-pull output capable of ±3A peak into 4Ω; requires DC-blocking capacitor (C9 = 2200µF) |
| 7 | VCC | Main supply input (8–30V); bypassed externally with C5 (0.1µF) and C6 (10µF) |
| 8 | Muting Control | Threshold input (Pin 11): 0–1.3V = mute-on (60dB attenuation); 1.9–4.7V = mute-off |
| 9 | Heatsink Tab | Internally connected to ground; serves as primary thermal path and mechanical mounting point |
| 10 | Not Connected | No internal connection - left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice |
| 11 | Muting Threshold | High-impedance (≥150kΩ) control input that sets muting state; drives <10µA current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Muting Function | 60dB signal attenuation via Pin 11 voltage threshold; eliminates switch-on thumps and tuning transients |
| Thermal Shutdown | Active protection at 110–125°C case temperature; prevents permanent damage during sustained overload |
| Low Noise Performance | 1.3µV input-referred noise (Rg=1kΩ) and 103dB S/N ratio enable clean audio in unshielded TV chassis |
| High PSRR | 60dB supply rejection at 100Hz allows direct use with switched-mode TV power supplies without LDO pre-regulation |
| Robust Output Stage | 3.5A non-repetitive peak current capability supports dynamic bass transients into 4Ω loads |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar audio power amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDA2030A | Lower 14W max output (24V/4Ω), no integrated muting, higher 0.5% THD at full power | Suitable for non-muting applications like basic speaker drivers where cost is prioritized over transient suppression | Select when muting is handled externally and thermal margin is less critical |
| LM1875 | Higher 20W output but requires ±15V dual supply; no muting or thermal shutdown; TO-220 package demands larger heatsink | Better for high-fidelity stereo amplifiers using split-rail supplies, not 24V single-rail TV systems | Select only if redesigning power supply topology and board layout to accommodate dual rails |
Compared with TDA1910, TDA2030A offers lower cost but lacks muting and tighter THD control, while LM1875 delivers more power at the expense of supply complexity and missing protection features essential for consumer TV integration.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage required for full 10W output?
The TDA1910 requires ≥24V supply to deliver its rated 10W output into 4Ω at ≤0.5% THD. At 18V, maximum output drops to 6.5W under identical conditions. Operation below 8V is prohibited per absolute maximum ratings and will disable internal biasing.
How does the muting function interface with a microcontroller GPIO?
A microcontroller GPIO can drive Pin 11 directly: outputting 0–1.3V mutes the amplifier (>60dB attenuation), while 1.9–4.7V unmutes it. Since Pin 11 draws <10µA, no buffer or level shifter is needed - even 3.3V GPIOs can achieve muting via resistor divider to meet threshold ranges.
Can TDA1910 drive an 8Ω speaker, and what is the expected output power?
Yes - at 24V supply, the TDA1910 delivers 7.5W into 8Ω with ≤0.5% THD (40–15kHz). Efficiency drops slightly to ~62%, and quiescent drain current decreases to 475mA. No circuit changes are needed beyond adjusting C9 to 1000µF for extended low-frequency response.
Is heatsinking mandatory, and what thermal resistance is recommended?
Yes - the TDA1910 dissipates up to 20W at 90°C case temperature. With Rth(j-case) = 3°C/W, a heatsink with ≤4°C/W thermal resistance (including interface grease) is required to maintain Tj ≤150°C at full load. ST recommends mounting via screw or clip directly to the metal tab (Pin 9).
