FAN7005MUX

Overview

The FAN7005MUX is a dual, fully differential audio power amplifier manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. It delivers 200mW of continuous output power into an 8Ω load. The device operates with a supply voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V. It features a shutdown mode for power conservation and is housed in an 8-MSOP package.

Feature Summary

• Dual fully differential architecture for stereo audio amplification
• Integrated shutdown control for low-power standby operation
• Optimized for low-voltage portable applications

Applications

• Portable media players
• Mobile phones
• Personal digital assistants

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer marking on the component surface to confirm it originates from Fairchild Semiconductor or its successor entity. Ensure the part number suffix matches the specific package variant required for your PCB layout. Cross-reference the date code against current production status to avoid obsolete stock issues during assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution for low-power stereo audio is required. The MSOP package suits space-constrained designs. Verify that the system supply voltage remains within the 2.5V to 5.5V operational range to ensure stable performance and prevent damage to the internal circuitry.

Part Context

This part belongs to the FAN7005 series of audio amplifiers. The MUX suffix typically denotes the specific tape-and-reel packaging format and pin configuration compatible with standard surface-mount assembly processes. It serves as a specialized solution for consumer electronics requiring high efficiency in small form factors.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents such as the FAN7005MU if different packaging is needed. Verify pin compatibility before substituting with other stereo amplifiers from the same family.
