BIASING AND SVR

As shown by fig. 11, all the TDA7385’s main sec-

tions, such as INPUTS, OUTPUTS AND AC-GND

(pin 16) are internally biased at half Supply Volt-

age level (Vs/2), which is derived from the Supply

Voltage Rejection (SVR) block. In this way no cur-

rent flows through the internal feedback network.

The AC-GND is common to all the 4 amplifiers

and represents the connection point of all the in-

verting inputs.

Both individual inputs and AC-GND are con-

nected to Vs/2 (SVR) by means of 100K

Ω resis-

tors.

To ensure proper operation and high supply volt-

age rejection, it is of fundamental importance to

provide a good impedance matching between IN-

PUTS and AC-GROUND terminations. This im-

TO CARRY THE SAME NOMINAL VALUE AND

THEIR TOLERANCE SHOULD NEVER EXCEED

±10 %.

Besides its contribution to the ripple rejection, the

SVR capacitor governs the turn ON/OFF time se-

quence and, consequently, plays an essential role

in the pop optimization during ON/OFF transients.

To conveniently serve both needs, ITS MINIMUM

RECOMMENDED VALUE IS 10

µF.
