1.3 Description
1.4 TPA2031D1EVM Specifications
www.ti.com Introduction
The TPA2031D1 audio power amplifier evaluation module is a complete, low-power single-channel audiopower amplifier. It consists of the TI TPA2031D1 2.5-W low-voltage Class-D audio power amplifier IC in avery small NanoFree™ WCSP package, along with a small number of other parts mounted on a circuitboard that is approximately 1.25-inches square.
Single in-line header pins are mounted to the underside of the module circuit board. These pins allow theEVM to be plugged into the TI Plug-N-Play audio-amplifier evaluation platform, or to be wired directly intoexisting circuits and equipment when used stand-alone.
The platform, which has room for a pair of TPA2031D1 evaluation modules, is a convenient vehicle fordemonstrating TI's audio power amplifier and related evaluation modules. The EVMs simply plug into theplatform, which automatically provides power to the modules, interconnects them correctly, and connectsthem to a versatile array of standard audio input and output jacks and connectors. Easy-to-useconfiguration controls allow the platform and EVMs to quickly model many possible end-equipmentconfigurations.
There is nothing to build, nothing to solder, and nothing but the speakers included with the platform toconnect.

2.1 Precautions
Operation www.ti.com
Follow the steps in this chapter to prepare the TPA2031D1 audio-amplifier EVM for use. Using theTPA2031D1 EVM with the TI Plug-N-Play audio-amplifier evaluation platform is a quick, easy way toconnect power, signal and control inputs, and signal outputs to the EVM, using standard connectors.However, the audio-amplifier evaluation module can be used stand-alone by making connections directlyto the module pins, and it can be wired directly into existing circuits or equipment.
The platform switch and jumper settings shown in Table 1 are typical for the TPA2031D1 EVM. In thisconfiguration, inserting a plug into the platform headphone jack (J10) shuts down the TPA2031D1amplifier IC on the EVM.

CAUTION
Power Supply Input Polarity and Maximum Voltage
Always ensure that the polarity and voltage of the external power connected toVCC power input connector J1, J2, and/or VDD power input connector J6 arecorrect. Overvoltage or reverse-polarity power applied to these terminals canopen onboard soldered-in fuses and cause other damage to the platform,installed evaluation modules, and/or the power source.
CAUTION
Inserting or Removing EVM Boards
Do not insert or remove EVM boards with power applied—damage to the EVMboard, the platform, or both may result.

FCC Warning
This evaluation board/kit is intended for use for ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT, DEMONSTRATION, OR EVALUATION PURPOSESONLY and is not considered by TI to be a finished end-product fit for general customer use. It generates, uses, and can radiate radiofrequency energy and has not been tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules, which aredesigned to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference. Operation of this equipment in other environments maycause interference with radio communications, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures maybe required to correct this interference.
EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage and the output voltage ranges as specified in the table below.
