method for the measurement of TIM consists of feeding sine waves superimposed onto square wavers, into the
amplifier under test. The output spectrum is then examined using a spectrum analyzer and compared to the input.
This method suffers from serious disadvantages: the accuracy is limited, the measurement is a tatter delicate
operation and an expensive spectrum analyzer is essential. A new approach (see Technical Note 143(Applied by
SGS to monolithic amplifiers measurement is fast cheap, it requires nothing more sophisticated than an
oscilloscope-and sensitive-and it can be used down to the values as low as 0.002% in high power amplifiers.
The "inverting- sawtooth" method of measurement is based on the response of an amplifier to a 20KHz saw-tooth
wave-form. The amplifier has no difficulty following the slow ramp but it cannot follow the fast edge. The output will
follow the upper line in Fig.23 cutting of the shade area and thus increasing the mean level. If this output signal is
filtered to remove the saw-tooth, direct voltage remains which indicates the amount of TIM distortion, although it is
difficult to measure because it is indistinguishable from the DC offset of the amplifier. This problem is neatly avoided
in the IS-TIM method by periodically inverting the saw-tooth wave-form at a low audio frequency as shown in
Fig.24.Inthe case of the saw-tooth in Fig. 25 the means level was increased by the TIM distortion, for a saw-tooth in
the other direction the opposite is true.

The result is an AC signal at the output whole peak-to-peak value is the TIM voltage, which can be measured
easily with an oscilloscope. If the peak- topeak value of the signal and the peak-to-peak of the inverting sawtooth are
measured, the TIM can be found very simply from:

Vo(Vp-p)
In Fig.25 The experimental results are shown for the 30W amplifier using the TDA2030A as a driver and a low-cost
complementary pair. A simple RC filter on the input of the amplifier to limit the maximum signal slope(SS) is an
effective way to reduce TIM.
The Diagram of Fig.26 originated by SGS can be used to find the Slew- Rate(SR) required for a given output power
or voltage and a TIM design target.
For example if an anti-TIM filter with a cutoff at 30kHz is used and the max. Peak to peak output voltage is 20V then,
referring to the diagram, a Slew-Rate of 6V/ ms is necessary for 0.1% TIM.
As shown Slew-Rates of above 10V/ ms do not contribute to a further reduction in TIM.
Slew-Rates of 100V/ms are not only useless but also a disadvantage in hi-fi audio amplifiers because they tend to turn
the amplifier into a radio receiver.
POWER SUPPLY
Using monolithic audio amplifier with non regulated supply correctly. In any working case it must provide a supply
voltage less than the maximum value fixed by the IC breakdown voltage.
In average conditions, the continuous power supplied is lower. The music power/continuous power ratio is greater
in case than for the case of regulated supplied, with space saving and cost reduction.

THERMAL SHUT-DOWN
The presence of a thermal limiting circuit offers the following advantages:
1).An overload on the output (even if it is permanent),or an above limit ambient temperature can be easily supported
since the Tj can not be higher than 150 C
2).The heatsink can have a smaller factor of safety compared with that of a congenital circuit, There is no possibility of
device damage due to high junction temperature increase up to 150, the thermal shut-down simply reduces the power
dissipation and the current consumption.
APPLICATION SUGGESTION
The recommended values of the components are those shown on application circuit of Fig.14. Different values can be
used. The following table can help the designer.
