If the voltage present across the load becomes rapidly zero (due to the fast switch off) a small pop occurs,
depending also on Cout,Rload.
The parameters that set the switch off time constant of the st-by pin are:
The time constant is given by :
T ≈ Csvr · 2000Ω // Rext + Cst-by · 2500Ω // Rext
The suggested time constants are :
T > 120ms with C
T > 170ms with C
If Rext is too low the Csvr can become too high and a different approach may be useful (see next section).
Figg 43, 44 show some types of electronic switches (µP compatible) suitable for supplying the st-by pin (it
is important that Qsw is able to saturate with V
Also for turn off pop the bridge configuration is superior, in particular the st-by pin can go low faster.
5.4 Global Approach to Solving Pop Problem by Using the Muting/Turn On Delay Function
In the real case turn-on and turn-off pop problems are generated not only by the power amplifier, but also
(very often) by preamplifiers,tone controls, radios etc. and transmitted by the power amplifier to the loud-
speaker.
A simple approach to solving these problems is to use the mute characteristics of the TDA7350A. If the
SVR pin is at a voltage below 1.5 V, the mute attenuation (typ)is 30dB .The amplifier is in play mode when
Vsvr overcomes 3.5 V.
With the circuit of fig 45 we can mute the amplifier for a time Ton after switch-on and for a time Toff after
switch-off. During this period the circuitry that precedes the power amplifier can produce spurious spikes
that are not transmitted to the loudspeaker.
This can give back a very simple design of this circuitry from the pop point of view. A timing diagram of
this circuit is illustrated in fig 46.
Other advantages of this circuit are:
