Core Features & Advantages

The TDA7297 delivers a complete dual-channel Class-AB audio amplification solution with minimal external component count and integrated protection circuitry.

  • Primary Function: Stereo Class-AB dual bridge audio power amplifier designed for TV and portable radio applications.
  • Advantages:
    • Minimal External Components: No SVR capacitor, no bootstrap capacitor, and no Boucherot cells required — reduces BOM cost and PCB footprint significantly.
    • Internally Fixed Gain (32 dB): Eliminates external gain-setting resistors, ensuring consistent channel matching (ΔGv ≤ 0.5 dB) and simplifying design.
    • Comprehensive Protection: Integrated short-circuit protection and thermal overload shutdown at 150°C protect both the IC and connected speakers under fault conditions.

Typical Application Scenarios

  • Industry: Consumer Electronics / Audio
  • Equipment: Televisions, portable radios, Bluetooth speakers, DIY audio amplifier boards
  • Use Cases:
    • TV built-in stereo speaker driver delivering 2×15W into 8Ω loads from a single 12-16V supply rail.
    • Portable Bluetooth speaker amplifier with standby/mute control for power management and pop-noise suppression during turn-on/off.
    • DIY desktop speaker system with simplified circuit requiring only input coupling capacitors and supply decoupling.
