PRODUCTION DATA.
The typical requirements for designing the external components around the TPA3110D1-Q1 include efficiency and EMI/EMC performance. For most applications, only a ferrite bead is needed to filter unwanted emissions. The ripple current is low enough that an LC filter is typically not needed. As the output power increases, causing the ripple current to increase, an LC filter can be added to improve efficiency. An LC filter can also be added in cases where additional EMI suppression is needed.
In addition to discussing how to choose a ferrite bead and when to use an LC filter, the following sections also discuss the input filter and power supply decoupling. The input filter must be chosen with the input impedance of the amplifier in mind. The cut-off frequency should be chosen so that bass performance is not impacted. Power supply decoupling is important to ensure that noise from the power line does not impact the audio quality of the amplifier output.
