GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ft2128 is a high-efficiency, high-performance, Class-D audio power amplifier with dual modes of automatic level control (ALC). It operates from 3.0V to 5.5V supply. When powered with 5V supply voltage, it is capable of delivering a continuous average output of 3.4W into 3Ω load or 2.8W into 4Ω load with 4% THD+N. The ft2128 features ALC on the audio output **s, which detects the output clipping caused by the over-level input ** and automatically adjusts the voltage gain of the amplifier to eliminate the clipping while maintaining the maximally-allowed dynamic range of the audio output **s. The ALC also eliminates the output clipping due to low battery supply voltage. As a Class-D audio power amplifier, the ft2128 features high efficiency up to 90%, which make the device ideal for use in battery-powered portable devices. It also features minimized click-and-pop noise during turn-on and turn-off transitions. APPLICATIONS ? Portable navigation devices ? Multimedia internet devices ?
