PowerWise noise reduction frequency power amplifier technology designed by LM49155

This article introduces the main indicators, simplified block diagram and typical application circuit of LM49155. LM49155 is a highly integrated PowerWise audio subsystem of NS, which integrates a noise suppression microphone amplifier, a 1.35W mono Class D amplifier with ALC, a Class AB headphone driver with AGC, a high-efficiency stereo reference ground headphone amplifier with switch noise suppression, and I2C mode selection and volume control. It is mainly used in mobile phones and portable electronic devices.

Uplink Noise Suppression & Downlink SNR Enhancement Analog Audio Subsystem

The LM49155 is a fully integrated audio subsystem designed for portable handheld applications such as cellular phones. The LM49155 combines a Noise Suppression microphone amplifier, a 1.35W mono class D amplifier with ALC, class AB earpiece driver with AGC, a high efficiency, stereo, ground referenced headphone amplifier with click pop suppression and I2C modes select and volume control.

analog fully differential input, and differential output microphone amplifier designed to reduce background acoustic noise, while delivering superb speech clarity in voice communication applications. Downlink SNR enhancement with an advanced acoustic AGC technology to adjust output levels.

The LM49155 speaker amplifier features National's unique output limiter that provides both a no-clip feature and speaker protection. The E2S class ultra D amplifier features a patented, low EMI PWM architecture that significantly reduces RF emissions while preserving audio quality and efficiency. The headphone drivers feature National's ground referenced architecture that creates a ground-referenced output from a single, low-voltage supply.

The LM49155 is available in an ultra-small 36-bump micro SMD package (3.434mm x 3.459mm x 0.6mm).
