AN7513

Overview

The AN7513 is a single-channel audio power amplifier IC utilizing a BTL (Balanced Transformer-Less) architecture. It delivers 1 W of output power into an 8 Ω load with a 5 V supply voltage. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3.5 V to 13.5 V and features an integrated standby function alongside an on-chip volume control attenuator. Designed for low external component count, it incorporates thermal shutdown protection and ripple rejection circuits. The unit is housed in an 8-pin DIP package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a BTL amplifier topology to minimize external circuitry requirements.
• Includes built-in standby mode and programmable volume attenuation functions.
• Features internal thermal shutdown circuitry that automatically resets upon cooling.

Applications

• Televisions
• Radios
• Personal computers

Procurement Notes

Verify the current lifecycle status before procurement as the component is classified under Maintenance/Discontinued categories by Panasonic. Confirm availability through official distributors or authorized channels, as standard stock may be limited. Ensure compliance with export regulations if applicable. Request the latest product standards prior to final design implementation to verify specifications have not changed.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a simple, low-power audio amplification solution with minimal external parts. The integrated volume control and standby features simplify system design. Ensure the operating supply voltage remains within the 3.5 V to 13.5 V range. Consider the thermal dissipation characteristics when designing for higher ambient temperatures or increased output power levels.
