TDA1566 Audio Amplifier 2x46W / 1x92W

TDA1566 general description:



The TDA1566 is a car audio power amplifier with a complementary output stage realized in BCDMOS. The TDA1566 has two Bridge Tied Load (BTL) output stages and comes in a HSOP24 or DBS27P package. The TDA1566 can be controlled with or without I2C-bus. With I2C-bus control gain settings per channel and diagnostic trigger levels can be selected. Failure conditions as well as load identification can be read with I2C-bus. The load identification detects whether the outputs of a BTL channel are connected with a DC or AC load and discriminates between a speaker load, a line driver load and an open (unconnected) load. The TDA1566 can be configured in a single BTL mode and drive a 1 Ω load. For the single BTL mode it is necessary to connect on the Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) the outputs of both BTL channels in parallel.  TDA1566 Audio Amplifier 2x46W / 1x92W

TDA1566 features:


  • Operates in I2C-bus mode and non-I2C-bus mode
  • TH version: four I2C-bus addresses controlled by two pins; J version: two I2C-busaddresses controlled by one pin
  • Two 4 Ω or 2 Ω capable BTL channels or one 1 Ω capable BTL channel
  • Low offset
  • Pop free off/standby/mute/operating mode transitions
  • Speaker fault detection
  • Selectable gain (26 dB and 16 dB)
  • In I2C-bus mode:
  • DC load detection: open, short and speaker or line driver present
  • AC load (tweeter) detection
  • Programmable trigger levels for DC and AC load detection
  • Per channel programmable gain (26 dB and 16 dB, selectable per channel)
  • Selectable diagnostic levels for clip detection and thermal pre-warning
  • Selectable information on the DIAG pin for clip information of each channelseparately and independent enabling of thermal-, offset- or load fault
  • Independent short-circuit protection per channel
  • Loss of ground and open VP safe
  • All outputs short-circuit proof to VP, GND and across the load
  • All pins short-circuit proof to ground
  • Temperature controlled gain reduction at high junction temperatures
  • Fault condition diagnosis per channel: short to ground, short to supply, shorted leadand speaker fault (wrongly connected)
  • Low battery voltage detection
  • TH version: pin compatible with the TDA8566TH1
