External Class-H Boost Controller

The TAS2120device has implemented Class-H algorithm allowing users to optimize the efficiency in the system by controlling external power supply and maintaining just enough margin to provide high dynamic range without clipping distortions.

When enabled, the controller generates PWM signal at device CLH pin with duty cycle proportional to peak voltage on the speaker. Using an external RC filter signal is converted to an analog voltage and can be used to control boost converters with feedback input.

The figure below shows how CLH pin can be connected to the external boost control RC network.

                    Components Figure 6-12 CLH Pin and External Components

By default, the CLH pin has an open drain configuration which allows an easy implementation of a multi-channel control loop using only one RC circuitry in wired-or configuration.
