8.1 Application Information

TAS2573 is a mono channel digital-in class-D amplifier with integrated Boost, I-V sense, battery voltage and temperature monitoring capabilities. The on-chip DSP supports Smart Amp Audio Tuning, Speaker Protection and Advanced Battery Guard algorithms. I2S audio data is supplied by host processor via SDIN data port along with the bit clock and frame sync signals and the device sends echo reference stream back through the SDOUT data port. I2C bus is used for configuration and control.

The device needs external power supply voltages: VBAT - 2.5V to 5.5V, VDD - 1.65V to 1.95V and supports the 1.2V or 1.8V IOVDD rail.

PurePathTM Console 3 (PPC3) software is the recommended tool to configure the device, and PPC3 enables optimization of device and algorithm performance parameters depending on different application scenarios.
