MAX98365DEWC+T

Audio Amplifiers Overview

The MAX98365DEWC+T is a digital input Class-D audio amplifier manufactured by Analog Devices. It operates on a single PVDD supply ranging from 3V to 14V and delivers up to 13.8W into an 8Ω load at 14V. The device features a flexible digital audio interface supporting I2S, left-justified, and 8-channel TDM formats with sample rates from 8kHz to 192kHz. It utilizes a 12-bump wafer-level package (WLP) measuring 1.21mm x 1.78mm.

Audio Amplifiers Feature Summary

• Eliminates the need for external master clock signals through automatic recognition of PCM and TDM clocking schemes.
• Employs spread-spectrum modulation and edge-rate limiting to achieve low EMI without requiring output filters.
• Features a novel pinout design that allows cost-effective WLP implementation without expensive in-pad vias.

Audio Amplifiers Applications

• Smart Speakers
• Notebook Computers
• IoT Devices
• Gaming Devices
• Smartphones

Audio Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'D' corresponds to the volume ramp-up variant during procurement. Confirm the '+T' designation indicates tape-and-reel packaging. Ensure compatibility with the required logic voltage levels for the digital audio interface before finalizing orders.

Audio Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component when high power efficiency and minimal external components are required. The absence of MCLK simplifies system architecture. Verify that the application supports the specific gain settings configured via the GAIN_SLOT pin for the desired output level.

Audio Amplifiers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX98365 family of plug-and-play digital Class-D amplifiers. The family includes variants differentiated by turn-on behavior and supported audio protocols.

Audio Amplifiers FAQ

What distinguishes the MAX98365D variant from other models?

The MAX98365D model features a 13ms volume ramp-up during turn-on and turn-off, unlike the MAX98365A/B which have a 1ms turn-on time.

Does the MAX98365 require an external Master Clock?

No, the device eliminates the need for an external MCLK signal by automatically recognizing different PCM and TDM clocking schemes.
