DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFIER EXPLANATION
The LM4898 is a fully differential audio amplifier that fea-
tures differential input and output stages. Internally this is
accomplished by two circuits: a differential amplifier and a
common mode feedback amplifier that adjusts the output
voltages so that the average value remains V
setting the differential gain, the amplifier can be considered
to have two "halves". Each half uses an input and feedback
resistor (R
(see Figure 1). With R
at -R
It is extremely important to match the input resistors to each
other, as well as the feedback resistors to each other for best
amplifier performance. See the Proper Selection of External
Components section for more information. A differential am-
plifier works in a manner where the difference between the

two input signals is amplified. In most applications, this
would require input signals that are 180˚ out of phase with
each other. The LM4898 can be used, however, as a single
ended input amplifier while still retaining its fully differential
benefits. In fact, completely unrelated signals may be placed
on the input pins. The LM4898 simply amplifies the differ-
ence between them.
All of these applications, either single-ended or fully differ-
ential, provide what is known as a "bridged mode" output
(bridge-tied-load, BTL). This results in output signals at Vo1
and Vo2 that are 180˚ out of phase with respect to each
other. Bridged mode operation is different from the single-
ended amplifier configuration that connects the load be-
tween the amplifier output and ground. A bridged amplifier
design has distinct advantages over the single-ended con-
figuration: it provides differential drive to the load, thus dou-
bling maximum possible output swing for a specific supply
voltage. Four times the output power is possible compared
with a single-ended amplifier under the same conditions.
This increase in attainable output power assumes that the
