EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the supply voltage range of 8 V to 18 V.
Exceeding the specified supply voltage range may cause unexpected operation and/or
irreversible damage to the EVM. If there are questions concerning the supply voltage range,
please contact a TI field representative prior to applying power to the device under test (DUT).
Applying loads outside of the specified load impedance 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
65°C. The EVM is designed to operate properly with certain components above 65°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.

1.1 Description
The TPA3001D1 evaluation module (EVM) is a 20-W class-D mono audio
power amplifier complete with a small number of external components
mounted on a circuit board measuring approximately 2 1/4 inches by 1 1/2
inches (Figure 1–1 and Figure 1–2).

Note:
Single in-line header pins extend from the underside of the module circuit
board to allow the EVM to be plugged into the TI Plug-N-Play audio amplifier
evaluation platform, or to be wired directly into existing circuits and equip-
ment when used stand-alone operation.

Introduction
The platform, which has room for a single TPA3001D1EVM, is a convenient
vehicle for demonstrating TI’s audio power amplifier and related evaluation
modules. The EVMs simply plug into the platform, which automatically
provides power to the modules, interconnects them correctly, and connects
them to a versatile array of standard audio input and output jacks and
connectors. Easy-to-use configuration controls allow the platform and EVMs
to quickly model many possible end-equipment configurations.

Follow the steps in this chapter to quickly prepare the TPA3001D1EVM for
use. Using the TPA3001D1EVM with the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier
evaluation platform is a quick and easy way to connect power, signal and
control inputs, and signal outputs to the EVM using standard connectors.
However, the audio amplifier evaluation module can be used in stand-alone
operation by making connections directly to the module pins, and it can be
wired directly into existing circuits or equipment.

2.1 Configuration
The platform switch and jumper settings shown in Table 2–1 are typical for the
TPA3001D1EVM and cause the TPA3001D1 to shut down when a plug is
inserted into platform headphone jack J10 (see Note 3 in Table 2–1).

AC/DC (J2) OFF ON OFF ON X Mode X X ON OFF U5
Notes: 1) ON = Jumper installed, OFF = Jumper NOT Installed, X = Don’t care
2) Set to ON when tone control board SLOP109 is installed in U1, otherwise set to OFF.
3) R3 must be removed from the TPA3001D1EVM to allow the headphone jack to control the shutdown of the
TPA3001D1.

2.2 Precautions
Power Supply Input Polarity and Maximum Voltage
Always ensure the polarity and voltage of the external power connected to
VCC power input connector J1, J2, and/or VDD power input connector J6 are
correct. Overvoltage or reverse-polarity power applied to these terminals
can open onboard soldered-in fuses and cause other damage to the
platform, installed evaluation modules, and/or the power source.
Inserting or Removing EVM Boards
Do not insert or remove EVM boards with power applied. Damage to the
EVM board, the platform, or both may result.

Quick Start
2.3 Quick Start List for the Platform
Follow these steps when using the TPA3001D1EVM with the TI plug-n-play
audio amplifier evaluation platform (see the platform user’s guide, SLOU011,
for additional details).
Platform Preparations
1) Ensure all external power sources and platform power switch S1 are set
to OFF.
2) Install aTPA3001D1 module in platform socket U2, taking care to align the
module pins correctly (EVM power pins engage sockets U2 and U3).
3) Set switch S2 to OFF.
4) Set switch S3 to U5.
5) Set jumper JP6 to select the Mode control input.

VCC (J1) ON ON X Mode X X ON OFF U5
Notes: 1) ON = Jumper installed, OFF = Jumper NOT Installed, X = Don’t care
2) Set to ON when tone control board SLOP109 is installed in U1.
Power Supply
Do not exceed 15 V on the plug-n-play platform, or Zener diode VR1 may
fail. If a power supply greater than 15 V is to be used, VR1 must be removed.
6) Ensure power switch S1 is set to OFF. Connect a regulated power supply
with an output of 8 V to 15 V to J1, taking care to observe marked polarity.
7) Set jumper JP1 for DC source to be from input J1.
8) Set jumper JP4 for VCC power to EVMs.
Inputs and Outputs
9) Ensure that the audio signal source level is set to minimum.
10) Connect the audio source to the right RCA phono jack J3 or the mono min-
iature phone jack J4.
11) Connect speakers to the right RCA jack J7 or to the stripped wire speaker
connectors J8.

13) Verify correct voltage and input polarity and set the external power supply
and platform power switch S1 to ON.
Note:
Platform LED1 should light indicating the presence of VCC, and the evalua-
tion module(s) installed on the platform should begin operation.
14) Set switch S2 to ON if tone control board SLOP109 is installed in U1.
15) Adjust the signal source level as needed.
2.4 Quick Start List for Stand-Alone Operation
Follow these steps to use the TPA3001D1EVM as a stand-alone unit, or when
connecting it into existing circuits or equipment. Connections to the
TPA3001D1 module header pins can be made via individual sockets,
wire-wrapping, or soldering to the pins, either on the top or the bottom of the
module circuit board.
Power Supply
1) Ensure that all external power sources are set to OFF.
2) Connect an external regulated power supply set from 8 V to 18 V to the
module VCC and GND pins taking care to observe marked polarity. It is
only necessary to use the ground pins adjacent to the module power pins.
Inputs and Outputs
3) Ensure that audio signal source level adjustments are set to minimum.
4) Connect the audio source across the module IN+ and IN–pins, taking care
to observe marked polarity. For single-ended input, the negative input pin
(IN–) should be connected to the ground of the audio signal source.
5) Connect a speaker to the module OUT+ and OUT–pins, taking care to
observe marked polarity.

Evaluation Module Preparations
6) Adjust the source signal level as needed.
7) Use jumpers GAIN0 and GAIN1 to set the gain as shown in Table 2–5.

ON ON 12
ON OFF 18

Note: ON = Jumper installed, OFF = Jumper NOT installed
Control Inputs
Note:
The control signals applied to the EVM shutdown inputs must have sufficient
current capability to overcome the 120–kΩpullup resistor on each input.
Holding down S1 places the amplifier in the shutdown state. Releasing S1
returns the amplifier to the active state.
Refer to the TPA3001D1 data sheet (SLOS398) for logic threshold voltage
ratings.
8) SHUTDOWN: This pin is active low. A low on this pin shuts down the ampli-
fier; a high on this pin places the amplifier in an active state. Leaving this
pin floating also allows normal amplifier operation.
Power Up
9) Verify correct voltage and input polarity and set the external power supply
to ON. The EVM should begin operation.
10) Adjust the signal source level as needed.
