Description of External Parts

input

O muling
C3,C4: Input filter capacitors -v c c Unit (resistance: fl, capacitance: F)

• A filter formed with R5 or R6 can be used to reduce noise at high frequencies.

C5,C6: Input coupling capacitors
• Used to block DC current. When the reactance of the capacitor increases at low frequencies,
the dependence of 1/f noise on signal source resistance causes the output noise to worsen. It is
better to decrease the reactance.
• To reduce the pop noise at the time of application of power, it is effective to increase C5, C6
that fix the time constant on the input side and to decrease C9, CIO on the NF side.
C9,C10: NF capacitors
• These capacitors fix the low cutoff frequency as shown below.

fL= tH21
2.-C9.R7
To provide the desired voltage gain at low frequencies, it is better to increase C9. However,
do not increase C9 more than needed because the pop noise level becomes higher at the time
of application of power.
C19 Decoupling capacitor
• Used to eliminate the ripple components that mix into the input side from the power line
( + V CC )-
C15, C16 : Bootstrap capacitors
• When the capacitor value is decreased, the distortion is liable to be higher at low frequencies.
C17, C18 : Oscillation blocking capacitors
• Must be inserted as close to the IC power supply pins as possible so that the power supply
impedance is decreased to operate the IC stably.
• Electrolytic capacitors are recommended for C17, C18.
C20 : Capacitor for ripple filter
• Capacitor for the TRIO-used ripple filter in the IC system
C13, C14 : Oscillation blocking capacitors
• A polyester film capacitor, being excellent in temperature characteristic, frequency chara-
cteristic, is recommended for C13, C14.
R5, R 6 : Resistors for input filter
R3, R 4 : Input bias resistors
• Used to bias the input pin potential to zero. These resistors fix the input impedance
practically.
R7, R 9 : These resistors fix voltage gain VG.
(R8.R10) It is recommended to use R7 (R8) = 560ft, R9 (RIO) = 56kQ for VG = 40dB.
• To adjust VG, it is desirable to change R7 (or R8).
• When R7 (or R8) is changed to adjust VG, R3 ( = R4) = R9 ( = R10) must be set to ensure V N
balance.
R l l , R20 : Bootstrap resistors
(R12, R21) • The quiescent current is set by these resistors 4.7kQ + 4.7kQ. It is recommended to use this
resistor value. Continued on next page.

R15 : Resistor for ripple filter
• (Limiting resistor for predriver TR at the time of load short)
R14 : Used to ensure plus/minus balance at the time of clip.
R18, R19 : Resistor for ripple filter
• When muting TR11 is turned ON, current flows from ground to - V c c through TR11. It is
recommended to use lkft (1W) + lkft (1W) allowing for the power that may be dissipated on
that occasion.

Thermal Design -vcc

The IC power dissipation of the STK4231II at the IC-operated mode is 137 W max. at load resistance 8Q
(simultaneous drive of 2 channels) for continuous sine wave as shown in F i g . l .

 STK4231II
In an actual application where a music signal is used, it is impractical to estimate the power dissipation
based on the continuous signal as shown above, because too large a heat sink must be used. It is
reasonable to estimate the power dissipation as 1/10 Po max. (EIAJ).
That is, Pd = 8 6 W a t 8 Q
Thermal resistance 0c-a of a heat sink for this IC power dissipation (Pd) is fixed under conditions 1 and 2
shown below.
Condition 1: T c = Pd X 0c-a + Ta ^ 125°C (1)
where Ta : Specified ambient temperature
T c : Operating case temperature
Condition 2 : Tj = Pd X (0c-a) + Pd/4 X (0j-c) + T a ^ 150°C (2)
where Tj : Junction temperature of power transistor

Assuming that the power dissipation is shared equally among the four power transistors (2 channels X 2),
thermal resistance 0j-c is 1.1°C/W and
Pd X (0c-a +1.1/4) + T a ^ 150°C (3)
Thermal resistance 0c-a of a heat sink must satisfy inequalities (1) and (3).
Fig.2 shows the relation between Pd and 0c-a given from (1) and (3) with Ta as a parameter.

[Example] The thermal resistance of a heat sink is obtained when the ambient temperature specified for a
stereo amplifier is 50°C.
Assuming V C c = ±51.OV, R L = 8 Q ,
R l = 8Q : Pd = 86W at 1/10 Po max.
The thermal resistance of a heat sink is obtained from Fig.2.
R L = 8ft:0c-a = O.87°C/W
Tj when a heat sink is used is obtained from (3).
R L = 8£l:Tj = 148.5°C
