External Components Description
(Figures 1, 2)
Note 15: Optional components dependent upon specific design requirements. Refer to the Application Information section for more information.
OPTIONAL EXTERNAL COMPONENT INTERACTION
Although the optional external components have specific
desired functions that are designed to reduce the bandwidth
and eliminate unwanted high frequency oscillations they may
cause certain undesirable effects when they interact. Inter-
action may occur for components whose reactances are in
close proximity to one another. One example would be the
coupling capacitor, C

Acts as a volume control by setting the voltage level allowed to the amplifier’s input terminals.
Provides DC voltage biasing for the single supply operation and bias current for the positive input terminal.
Provides bias filtering.
Provides AC coupling at the input and output of the amplifier for single supply operation.
Prevents currents from entering the amplifier’s non-inverting input which may be passed through to the load
upon power-down of the system due to the low input impedance of the circuitry when the under-voltage
circuitry is off. This phenomenon occurs when the supply voltages are below 1.5V.
Reduces the gain (bandwidth of the amplifier) at high frequencies to avoid quasi-saturation oscillations of the
output transistor. The capacitor also suppresses external electromagnetic switching noise created from
fluorescent lamps.

Compensation capacitor that works with R
Mute resistance set up to allow 0.5 mA to be drawn from pin 8 to turn the muting function off.
Mute Current curves in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
Mute capacitance set up to create a large time constant for turn-on and turn-off muting.
Works with C
Works with R
Provides high impedance at high frequecies so that R may decouple a highly capacitive load
and reduce the Q of the series resonant circuit due to capacitive load. Also provides a low impedance at low
frequencies to short out R and pass audio signals to the load.
Provides power supply filtering and bypassing.

These two components act as low impedances to certain
