The TPA3111D1-Q1 device is a high-performance CMOS audio amplifier that requires adequate power supply decoupling to ensure that the output total harmonic distortion (THD) is as low as possible. Power supply decoupling also prevents oscillations for long lead lengths between the amplifier and the speaker.
Optimum decoupling is achieved by using a network of capacitors of different types that target specific types of noise on the power supply leads. For higher frequency transients due to parasitic circuit elements such as bond wire and copper trace inductances as well as lead frame capacitance, a good quality low equivalent-series-resistance (ESR) ceramic capacitor with a value between 220 pF and 1000 pF works well. This capacitor should be placed as close to the device PVCC pins and system ground (either PGND pins or PowerPAD) as possible.
For mid-frequency noise because of filter resonances or PWM switching transients as well as digital hash on the line, place another good quality capacitor, with a typical value of 0.1 µF to 1 μF, as close as possible to the PVCC pins which works best. For filtering lower frequency noise signals, a larger aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a value of 220 µF or greater placed near the audio power amplifier is recommended. The 220-µF capacitor also serves as a local storage capacitor for supplying current during large signal transients on the amplifier outputs. The PVCC pins provide the power to the output transistors, so a 220-μF or larger capacitor should be placed on each PVCC pin. A 10-μF capacitor on the AVCC pin is adequate. Also, a small decoupling resistor between the AVCC and PVCC pins can be used to keep high frequency Class-D noise from entering the linear input amplifiers.
