Product details
Overview
TS482ID from STMicroelectronics is a dual-channel rail-to-rail stereo headphone amplifier IC delivering up to 100mW per channel into 16Ω at 5V, with 110dB(A) SNR, 85dB PSRR, and switch ON/OFF click reduction circuitry. It operates from 2V to 5.5V supply and supports unity-gain stable configurations for portable audio systems including notebook computers and set-top boxes.
For engineers reviewing the TS482ID datasheet, TS482ID pinout, TS482ID application, or TS482ID equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, SO-8 package pin mapping, real-world output power vs. supply voltage behavior, crosstalk immunity at 1kHz, and validated alternative options for low-voltage stereo amplification.
Technical Context
The TS482ID integrates two independent fully differential amplifier channels with rail-to-rail input and output stages, enabling full dynamic range utilization in single-supply portable systems. Its internal click-reduction logic actively manages bias sequencing during power-up/down to suppress audible transients.
It features unity-gain stability with external gain-setting resistors (Rin/Rfeed), supports load impedances ≥16Ω, and maintains >100dB crosstalk rejection at 1kHz across 16–32Ω loads - critical for stereo separation in compact PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Power | 100mW per channel into 16Ω @ 5V (0.1% THD+N); enables loud, clean playback on low-impedance headphones without external boost. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2V to 5.5V - supports direct Li-ion battery (3.0–4.2V) and USB-powered (5V) operation without LDO pre-regulation. |
| SNR (A-weighted) | 110dB @ 5V - ensures negligible background noise in quiet listening environments, meeting high-fidelity portable audio requirements. |
| PSRR | 85dB @ 100Hz, 5V - rejects ripple from noisy shared power rails (e.g., digital SoC supplies), preserving analog signal integrity. |
| Crosstalk | 100dB @ 1kHz, 16Ω - prevents left/right channel bleed in stereo headset outputs, essential for spatial audio fidelity. |
| THD+N | 0.03% @ 1kHz, 90mW into 16Ω - delivers low-distortion audio even near full output, avoiding harshness in treble content. |
| Slew Rate | 0.7 V/µs @ RL=16Ω - supports transient response for wideband audio (20Hz–20kHz) without slew-induced distortion. |
Pinout & Package
TS482ID is supplied in an SO-8 package (surface-mount, 150°C/W thermal resistance on 4-layer PCB). Pin functions are electrically validated per STMicroelectronics datasheet Rev 2 (Nov 2005).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN− (1) | Inverting input for Channel 1; connects to feedback network for gain setting and DC bias control. |
| 2 | VIN+ (1) | Non-inverting input for Channel 1; accepts AC-coupled audio signal with DC bias at VCC/2. |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference for both channels; requires low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| 4 | VCC | Positive supply rail (2–5.5V); bypassed externally with ≥220µF capacitor to stabilize under dynamic load current. |
| 5 | OUT (1) | Channel 1 output; drives headphone load directly via AC-coupling capacitor (e.g., 220µF). |
| 6 | OUT (2) | Channel 2 output; independently driven with identical performance to OUT(1) for true stereo symmetry. |
| 7 | VIN+ (2) | Non-inverting input for Channel 2; mirrors VIN+(1) functionality for second audio channel. |
| 8 | VIN− (2) | Inverting input for Channel 2; completes dual-channel gain configuration with matched Rin/Rfeed. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Enables full 0–VCC swing at input and output, maximizing headroom and dynamic range on low-voltage supplies (e.g., 2.5V). |
| Click reduction | Dedicated internal circuitry eliminates audible pop/click during power-on/off transitions - no external mute control required. |
| Unity-gain stable | Operates stably at Av = 1 with external resistive feedback, simplifying design for line-level or headphone drive applications. |
| High PSRR (85dB) | Rejects switching noise from shared DC-DC converters, allowing co-location with digital processors on same PCB. |
| Low quiescent current | 7.2mA typical @ 5V - extends battery life in portable devices while maintaining full audio performance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar stereo headphone amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TAS5707PAP | Class-D, 3W/channel into 8Ω, requires external LC filter; higher efficiency but larger solution size. | Better suited for powered speakers; not drop-in for low-impedance headphone loads due to output filtering needs. | Select when >100mW output or >85% efficiency is mandatory; avoid for direct 16Ω headphone drive. |
| MAX4410ETE+ | Class-AB, 85mW/channel into 16Ω @ 5V, 95dB SNR, SO-8 package, no integrated click suppression. | Requires external mute circuitry for pop-free operation; lower SNR limits high-resolution audio fidelity. | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where 15mW lower output and added BOM complexity are acceptable. |
Compared with TAS5707PAP and MAX4410ETE+, TS482ID uniquely combines 100mW output, 110dB SNR, built-in click reduction, and SO-8 compatibility - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-powered stereo audio endpoints requiring zero-audible-artifact performance.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage for reliable operation of TS482ID?
The TS482ID is fully specified down to 2V supply voltage, delivering 11.5mW per channel into 16Ω at that level with 0.025% THD+N. Operation below 2V is outside absolute maximum ratings and may cause instability or undefined behavior.
Does TS482ID require external compensation components for stability?
No - the TS482ID is unity-gain stable and does not require external compensation capacitors. Stability is ensured across all gains using only resistive feedback (Rin/Rfeed) per channel, as confirmed by phase margin measurements ≥40° at 5V/16Ω load.
Can TS482ID drive 32Ω headphones effectively?
Yes - it delivers 65mW per channel into 32Ω at 5V (0.1% THD+N), with 95dB SNR and 100dB crosstalk. Output swing remains rail-to-rail, ensuring full dynamic range even at higher impedances common in studio-grade earphones.
Is thermal derating required for continuous operation in SO-8 package?
Yes - with RthJA = 150°C/W on a 4-layer PCB, continuous 100mW output into 16Ω at 5V generates ~125mW total dissipation. Ambient temperature must be limited to ≤55°C to keep junction temperature below 150°C per absolute maximum ratings.
