Introduction
This section provides an overview of the Texas Instruments (TI) TPA2012D2 NanoFree™ WCSP audio
amplifier evaluation module (TPA2012D2 EVM). It includes a brief description of the module and a list of
EVM specifications.
1.1 TPA2012D2 EVM Specifications
Supply voltage range, VDD
2.5 V to 5.5 V
2.5 A
Power supply current rating required
Continuous output power, PO: 4-Ω BTL, VDD = 5 V
Audio input voltage, VI
1.2 W (see note)
0 V to VDD
4 Ω
Minimum load impedance, ZL
Note:
The TPA2012D2 in the RTJ package (QFN) is rated at 2.1 W/channel. The YZH package
(WCSP) is thermally limited to 1.2 W/channel on the EVM. For layouts with higher trace
density and additional copper, the maximum output power will be larger. See the data
sheet for device descriptions.

Shutdown Controls
1. The TPA2012D2 provides independent shutdown controls so that each channel can be controlled
separately. The shutdown pins, SDL and SDR, are active low. This means that a low voltage (ground)
on this pin places the appropriate channel in shutdown mode. Using the pushbuttons provided on the
EVM, the TPA2012D2 can be placed in shutdown by pressing and holding the button(s) down. Both
buttons must be depressed in order for both channels of the TPA2012D2 to turn off. When the buttons
are released, the appropriate channel on the device restarts.
2. The jumper J1 can be used to tie SDL and SDR signals together. With jumper J1 installed, both
channels can be placed in shutdown by pressing either SDL or SDR. This is the default configuration
of the EVM.
2.2 Power Up
1. Verify the correct connections as described in Sections 2.1.1 and 2.1.2.
2. Verify the voltage setting of the power supply is between 2.5 V and 5.5 V and turn ON the power
supply. Proper operation of the EVM should begin.
3. Adjust the audio signal source as needed.

FCC Warnings
This equipment is intended for use in a laboratory test environment only. It generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and has not been tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to subpart J of part 15 of FCC rules,
which are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference. Operation of this equipment in other
environments may cause interference with radio communications, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to
take whatever measures may be required to correct this interference.

EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 2.5 V to 5 V and the output voltage range of xxx V to xxx V.
Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible damage to the EVM. If there are
questions concerning the input range, please contact a TI field representative prior to connecting the input power.
Applying loads outside of the specified output range may result in unintended operation and/or possible permanent damage to the
EVM. Please consult the EVM User's Guide prior to connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load
specification, please contact a TI field representative.
During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than 60ï½ C. The EVM is designed to
operate properly with certain components above 60ï½ C as long as the input and output ranges are maintained. These
components include but are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors.
These types of devices can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User's Guide. When placing measurement
probes near these devices during operation, please be aware that these devices may be very warm to the touch.
