MAXIM公司的MAX97003是一款立體聲單聲道揚聲器耳機放大器，揚聲器耳機放大器有獨立的音量及開關(guān)控制單元，四路輸入可以配置為兩路差分輸入或四路單端輸入方式。該芯片通過內(nèi)部集成可調(diào)動態(tài)范圍壓縮及失真限制器使揚聲器輸出最大音量，在不衰減大信號品質(zhì)的情況下提高小信號的增益。本文通過介紹MAX97003芯片的特性、應用方向和內(nèi)部結(jié)構(gòu)圖實現(xiàn)對該芯片的理解，并通過MAX97003EVKIT開發(fā)參考設計實現(xiàn)快速應用，給出相應開發(fā)板設計特性，原理圖、PCB制板圖及元器件列表。
The MAX97003 audio subsystem combines a mono speaker amplifier with a stereo headphone amplifier. The headphone and speaker amplifiers have independent volume and on/off controls. The four inputs are configurable as two differential or four single-ended inputs.
To minimize output noise, both the headphone and speaker outputs utilize a downward expander/noise gate to attenuate noise when no desired input signal is present.
The speaker output incorporates an adjustable dynamic range compressor (DRC) and distortion limiter to protect the speaker and maximize loudness. This allows high gain for low-level signals without compromising the quality of large signals.
All controls are performed using the two-wire I²C interface. The IC operates in the extended -40°C to +85℃ temperature range, and is available in the 2.0mm x 2.4mm, 20-bump WLP package (0.4mm pitch).
