Description
The TAS5441Q1EVM showcases the TI TAS5441-Q1 analog input class-D closed-loop mono amplifier.
The EVM is usable as stand-alone platform with default I
2
C register settings. The EVM runs in default I2C
register settings, without the need of initialization The EVM can also work with the Purepath™ Console
(PPC3) graphical user interface plug-in for programming the I2C register settings.

The default values in the I2C registers may not be appropriate for your system design. Use the PPC3 user
interface to change the register settings to meet the system needs.
2.1
TAS5441-Q1 Gain
The gain setting for the device is I2C programmable. The four gain options are 20 dB, 26 dB, 32 dB, and
36 dB. Set the gain by modifying I2C control register 0x03. By default, the gain is 26 dB.
2.2
TAS5441-Q1PWM Switching Frequencies
The PWM switching frequency is I2C programmable. The two f
(SW)
options are 400 kHz and 500 kHz.
Programming the frequency in control register 0x03 is via the GUI. By default, f
(SW)
is 400 kHz.
2.3
TAS5441-Q1SpeakerGuard™ Protection Circuitry
The SpeakerGuard™ protection circuitry is programmable for different voltage levels. Programming the
levels in control register 0x03 via the PPC3 GUI. The control register shows the default value for the
SpeakerGuard protection-circuitry voltage level.
