Product details
Overview
TS482IDT from STMicroelectronics is a dual-channel, rail-to-rail input/output stereo headphone amplifier delivering up to 100mW per channel into 16Ω at 5V supply, with 0.1% THD+N, 110dB(A) SNR, and 85dB PSRR. It operates from 2V to 5.5V and integrates click-reduction circuitry for clean power-on/off transitions in portable audio systems.
For engineers reviewing the TS482IDT datasheet, TS482IDT pinout, TS482IDT application, or TS482IDT equivalent, this device is selected for low-voltage, high-fidelity stereo output stages requiring stable gain configuration, high crosstalk rejection (100dB), and unity-gain stability with external resistors.
Technical Context
The TS482IDT implements two independent, fully differential-capable op-amp channels optimized for capacitive-coupled headphone loads. Its rail-to-rail input stage accepts common-mode voltages from GND to VCC, while the output stage drives 16–32Ω loads with symmetrical swing (e.g., 0.4–4.6V at 5V supply, RL=16Ω).
Gain is externally set via resistor networks (Rin/Rfeed), supporting inverting configurations with Av = –Rfeed/Rin; it remains unity-gain stable without compensation. The internal biasing network (Rpol) establishes VCC/2 DC reference for AC-coupled inputs and outputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Power | 100mW per channel into 16Ω @ 5V, 0.1% THD+N - sufficient for loud, distortion-free playback on standard headphones |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2V to 5.5V - enables direct integration with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V) or dual-cell alkaline (2.4–3.2V) power rails |
| PSRR | 85dB @ 100Hz, 5V - suppresses ripple from noisy DC-DC converters in compact portable designs |
| SNR | 110dB(A) @ 5V - ensures ultra-low noise floor for high-resolution audio playback |
| Crosstalk | 100dB @ 1kHz, RL=32Ω - preserves stereo imaging integrity in shared-ground headphone outputs |
| THD+N | 0.03% typical @ 1kHz, 90mW into 16Ω - meets Hi-Fi-grade linearity requirements |
| Slew Rate | 0.7 V/µs @ RL=16Ω - supports full-swing 20kHz signals without slew-induced distortion |
Pinout & Package
TS482IDT is housed in an SO-8 package (8-pin small outline integrated circuit) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin numbering follows standard SO-8 convention (pin 1 marked by notch or dot).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN− (1) | Inverting input of Channel 1 - connects to feedback network for gain setting |
| 2 | VIN+ (1) | Non-inverting input of Channel 1 - accepts AC-coupled left audio signal |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be low-impedance, star-connected to bypass capacitors |
| 4 | VCC | Positive supply rail - requires ≥220µF bulk + 1µF ceramic bypass near pin |
| 5 | OUT (1) | Channel 1 output - drives left headphone load via series coupling capacitor |
| 6 | OUT (2) | Channel 2 output - drives right headphone load via series coupling capacitor |
| 7 | VIN+ (2) | Non-inverting input of Channel 2 - accepts AC-coupled right audio signal |
| 8 | VIN− (2) | Inverting input of Channel 2 - connects to feedback network for gain setting |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Enables full dynamic range utilization from 2V supply, maximizing headroom in battery-powered devices |
| Click reduction | Internal circuitry minimizes turn-on/turn-off transients - eliminates audible pop in headset applications |
| Unity-gain stable | Operates reliably with Av = 1 using only external resistors - no compensation capacitor required |
| High PSRR & SNR | 85dB PSRR and 110dB(A) SNR jointly ensure clean audio under noisy power conditions |
| Low-voltage operation | Delivers 11.5mW/channel into 16Ω at 2V - supports ultra-low-power standby and wake-up audio |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar stereo headphone amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4410ETE+ | Higher quiescent current (12mA vs. 7.2mA typ.), 120mW output @ 5V/16Ω, but requires external charge pump for negative rail | Targeted at higher-output, higher-battery-voltage systems (e.g., 5V-only USB-powered docks) | Select when >100mW output or extended frequency response (>200kHz GBW) is required |
| TAS5707PAP | Digital-input Class-D amplifier with integrated DSP; not pin-compatible, requires I²S interface and firmware setup | Used in smart TV/audio systems needing multi-format decoding and parametric EQ | Select only for new designs embracing digital audio architecture - not a drop-in replacement |
Compared with MAX4410ETE+ and TAS5707PAP, the TS482IDT offers superior power efficiency at low supply voltages (2–3.3V), simpler analog interface, and guaranteed click-free operation - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, battery-constrained portable audio endpoints.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended load impedance for TS482IDT?
The TS482IDT is characterized and specified for loads ≥16Ω. Driving lower impedances (e.g., 8Ω) risks exceeding maximum output current (120mA per channel at 5V) and may cause thermal shutdown or increased THD+N beyond datasheet limits. ST does not guarantee performance below 16Ω.
Can TS482IDT operate with a single 2.5V supply?
Yes - the TS482IDT is fully specified down to 2V supply and delivers 20.5mW per channel into 16Ω at 2.5V with 0.1% THD+N. Its rail-to-rail input/output architecture ensures usable headroom even at this voltage, enabling compatibility with partially discharged Li-ion cells.
Is external DC biasing required for the inputs?
No - the TS482IDT includes internal biasing circuitry that sets VIN+ and VIN− reference points. However, AC-coupling capacitors (Cin) are mandatory at inputs to block external DC offsets; the internal Rpol network provides VCC/2 bias for the amplifier core.
Does TS482IDT support shutdown mode?
No - the TS482IDT has no dedicated enable/shutdown pin. Power-down is achieved by removing VCC. For active control, external MOSFET switching of VCC or use of a companion low-quiescent regulator with enable is recommended.
