LM4755
Stereo 11W Audio Power Amplifier with Mute
General Description
The LM4755 is a stereo audio amplifier capable of delivering
11W per channel of continuous average output power to a
4
load or 7W per channel into 8
using a single 24V supply
at 10% THD+N. The internal mute circuit and pre-set gain
resistors provide for a very economical design solution.
Output power specifications at both 20V and 24V supplies
and low external component count offer high value to con-
sumer electronic manufacturers for stereo TV and compact
stereo applications. The LM4755 is specifically designed for
single supply operation.

Note 1: All voltages are measured with respect to the GND pin (5), unless otherwse specified.
Note 2: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC and AC electrical specifications under particular test conditions which
guarantee specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the Operating Ratings. Specifications are not guaranteed for parameters where no limit
is given, however, the typical value is a good indication of device performance.
Note 3: For operating at case temperatures above 25C, the device must be derated based on a 150C maximum junction temperature and a thermal resistance
of
JC
= 2C/W (junction to case). Refer to the section Determining the Maximum Power Dissipation in the Application Information section for more information.
Note 4: Human body model, 100 pF discharged through a 1.5 k
resistor.
