TAS54x4C Design Guide

The TAS5414C-Q1 and TAS5424C-Q1 devices are 4-channel class-D amplifiers in one integrated circuit
(IC). The devices were developed for automotive use and are qualified in accordance with the AECQ100
specification. When designing the control code to operate the TAS5414B, TAS524B, TAS5414C,
TAS5424C, and TAS5412 devices through I

C, the unique device characteristics must be taken into

account for proper system function. This design guide includes software development guidelines as well
as hardware instructions to provide the necessary circuit topologies and part types to meet strict OEM-
audio specifications and the EMI standards of CISPR25.
