Product details
Overview
TDA7491HV13TR from STMicroelectronics is a dual-channel BTL Class-D audio amplifier IC designed for LCD TV and monitor audio systems. It delivers 20 W + 20 W continuous output into 8 Ω at 10% THD with 18 V supply, operates from a single 5–18 V rail, achieves 90% efficiency, features four selectable fixed gains (20/26/30/32 dB), and integrates differential inputs and thermal/short-circuit protection.
For engineers reviewing the TDA7491HV13TR datasheet, TDA7491HV13TR pinout, TDA7491HV13TR application, or TDA7491HV13TR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world audio system integration details, gain configuration logic, and thermal design guidance for compact TV speaker modules.
Technical Context
The TDA7491HV13TR implements two identical fully integrated Class-D BTL channels with internal PWM modulation, differential input stage, and independent digital control inputs (STBY, MUTE, GAIN0/GAIN1). Its architecture eliminates external LC filter dependency for basic operation while supporting external synchronization via SYNCLK and oscillator tuning via ROSC.
It integrates dual 3.3 V regulators (VDDPW for power stage, VDDS for signal blocks), open-drain diagnostic output (DIAG), supply voltage rejection (SVR) monitoring, and thermal shutdown at 150 °C. The exposed pad down (EPD) package enables direct PCB thermal coupling without heatsink.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel Class-D audio amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDA7491P | Same pinout and electrical specs but in PowerSSO-36 EPU (exposed pad up); Rth j-amb = 24 °C/W vs. 24 °C/W for EPD - identical thermal performance on recommended PCB | Requires top-side thermal interface; less suitable for bottom-layer-only thermal relief designs | Select when PCB stack-up favors top-side copper pour or when mechanical constraints prohibit bottom-side pad access |
| TDA7491LP | Lower 15 W + 15 W output rating (8 Ω, 10% THD, 15 V); same gain options and protection features; shares pinout | Targeted at cost-sensitive 1080p monitors with smaller speakers; reduced thermal margin | Choose for lower-power applications where peak output ≤15 W/channel suffices and BOM cost reduction is critical |
Compared with TDA7491P and TDA7491LP, the TDA7491HV13TR offers higher output power headroom (20 W/channel), identical pin compatibility, and optimized thermal path for bottom-side PCB cooling - making it the preferred choice for 4K UHD TV audio subsystems demanding sustained full-power operation.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage for reliable operation of the TDA7491HV13TR?
The TDA7491HV13TR operates reliably down to 5 V supply, with undervoltage protection engaging at 4.5 V (typical). Below 5 V, output power drops significantly - e.g., 7.2 W per channel into 8 Ω at 12 V and 10% THD - and THD increases above specification limits. Full 20 W capability requires ≥16 V for 6 Ω loads or ≥18 V for 8 Ω loads.
How does the ROSC pin affect system design?
The ROSC pin sets the internal PWM switching frequency (290–350 kHz typical) using an external resistor to ground. A 39 kΩ resistor yields ~320 kHz, optimizing EMI and LC filter size (e.g., 33 µH + 220 nF for 8 Ω). Lower frequencies reduce EMI but increase inductor size; higher frequencies improve filter attenuation but raise gate-drive losses.
Can the TDA7491HV13TR drive 4 Ω speakers?
Yes - the TDA7491HV13TR delivers 20 W per channel into 4 Ω at 10% THD with 14 V supply, as confirmed in characterization curves (Figure 4–13). However, power dissipation rises significantly: at 20 W into 4 Ω, junction temperature must be monitored closely, and PCB thermal design must exceed the recommended 9 cm² copper area with vias to maintain safe operation below 150 °C.
What is the function of the SVR pin, and how is it used?
The SVR pin outputs an analog voltage proportional to supply rail stability, used for dynamic headroom management. It is not a regulation feedback node but a diagnostic signal: its voltage scales with VCC, allowing system MCU to adjust input gain preemptively during brown-out conditions to avoid clipping - enhancing perceived audio quality under varying input voltage.
