Product details
Overview
TDA7802PD from STMicroelectronics is a quad-channel Class AB digital-input audio power amplifier in PowerSO36 package, integrating 24-bit DAC, I²S/TDM interface, programmable PLL, and full diagnostics. It delivers 4 × 28 W into 4 Ω at 14.4 V (THD = 10%), supports 6–18 V supply (start-stop compatible), and meets AEC-Q100 Rev. G for automotive infotainment systems.
For engineers reviewing the TDA7802PD datasheet, TDA7802PD pinout, TDA7802PD application, or TDA7802PD equivalent, key selection criteria include 110 dB A-weighted dynamic range, 1 Ω load driving capability (PowerSO36 only), I²C-configurable gain/mute modes, DC/AC speaker load detection, and thermal/clip diagnostics via dedicated open-drain CDdiag pin.
Technical Context
The TDA7802PD implements a fully integrated BCD-process quad bridge amplifier with on-chip 24-bit D/A conversion, achieving ≥115 dB SNR and >110 dB A-weighted dynamic range. Its SB-I high-efficiency architecture reduces average dissipation by up to 50% versus conventional Class AB under real music signals.
A programmable PLL locks to 64×Fs or 50×Fs input clocks across 44.1/48/96/192 kHz sample rates. Diagnostics include per-channel DC offset detection, AC load status, overcurrent, thermal warning, and POR reporting - all accessible via I²C bus or monitored on the open-drain CDdiag pin.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Channels | 4 independent bridge outputs (front left/right, rear left/right) |
| Max Output Power | 4 × 72 W into 2 Ω @ 14.4 V, enabling high-SPL cabin audio without external heatsinking |
| Dynamic Range | 110 dB (A-weighted), ensuring low-noise reproduction of quiet passages in automotive cabin environments |
| Supply Voltage Range | 6–18 V DC, supporting start-stop battery profiles down to 6 V without mute or dropout |
| Digital Input Interface | I²S, TDM-4Ch/8Ch/16Ch, 1.8 V/3.3 V logic compatible - direct connection to SoC/DSP without level-shifting |
| Diagnostics | Per-channel DC offset, short-to-rail, open-load, thermal warning, and clip detection reported via I²C or CDdiag pin |
| Package | PowerSO36 (slug-up), thermally optimized for PCB copper pour mounting and high-power dissipation |
Pinout & Package
PowerSO36 is a thermally enhanced slug-up surface-mount package with exposed die attach pad (TAB) for direct PCB thermal coupling. Pin 1 is TAB (thermal ground), and pins 14 & 24 are NC (no internal connection).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 TAB | Thermal ground / mechanical anchor | Must be soldered to large copper pour for thermal conduction; not electrically isolated |
| 2 CDdiag | Open-drain diagnostic output | Active-low indicator for thermal warning, overcurrent, DC offset, or POR - requires external pull-up |
| 3 OUT4−, 7 OUT4+, 32 OUT3+, 36 OUT3−, 12 OUT2+, 17 OUT2−, 19 OUT1−, 23 OUT1+ | Bridge output terminals | Each pair drives one speaker; no external bootstrap capacitors required |
| 4 & 6 VCC34, 13 & 16 VCC12 | Positive supply rails | Dual rail design isolates front/rear channel supplies to reduce crosstalk and improve PSRR |
| 5, 15, 22, 33 PWGNDx | Channel-specific power grounds | Separate ground returns per channel minimize ground bounce and inter-channel interference |
| 10 & 35 ADD1/ADD2 | I²C address select inputs | Set device I²C address (0x48–0x4F) for multi-amplifier bus configurations |
| 8 SDAlm, 9 SCLlen | I²C data/clock or legacy mute/enable | Hardware fallback: SDAlm = low mutes all channels; SCLlen = low disables I²C and enables H/W control mode |
| 20 LOAD1A, 21 LOAD1B | Load configuration inputs | Select 1 Ω or 2 Ω minimum load per channel pair - enables safe 1 Ω operation in PowerSO36 only |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-channel digital-input audio amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDA7801TR | Same die, Flexiwatt27 package; lacks LOAD1A/LOAD1B pins and 1 Ω driving capability | Lower thermal performance; limited to ≥2 Ω loads; no hardware load selection | Select when board space constraints favor through-hole mounting and 1 Ω operation is unnecessary |
| MAX9744ASA+ | Class D, 20 W × 4 into 4 Ω; I²C-only control; no integrated DAC or TDM support | No native digital audio format flexibility; requires external DAC for non-I²S sources | Select when peak efficiency (>90%) and minimal heatsink area are prioritized over SNR and diagnostic depth |

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage for continuous operation of the TDA7802PD?
The TDA7802PD operates continuously from 6 V to 18 V DC. At 6 V, it maintains full functionality including diagnostics, I²C communication, and audio playback - validated for engine cranking and start-stop battery profiles per AEC-Q100 requirements.
Does the TDA7802PD require external bootstrap capacitors for its output stage?
No. The TDA7802PD uses an internally compensated bridge output stage with integrated charge pumps. External bootstrap capacitors are not required - simplifying PCB layout and reducing BOM count compared to discrete Class AB solutions.
How is speaker load detection implemented on the TDA7802PD?
Speaker load status is determined via integrated DC and AC sensing circuitry per channel. DC detection identifies open/short conditions; AC detection verifies impedance magnitude and phase. Results are reported individually via I²C register reads or aggregated on the open-drain CDdiag pin.
Can the TDA7802PD operate without I²C communication enabled?
Yes. When SCLlen is held low, the device enters hardware control mode: SDAlm acts as a global mute, UNMUTEhw enables playback, and LOAD1A/LOAD1B set fixed load configuration. All diagnostics remain active and reportable via CDdiag pin.
