Evaluation Board
In addition to the Test Board shown in Figure 3. intended also to evaluate the STA540SA
Amplifier, it is possible to order the dedicated STA543SA evaluation board of Figure 6.
The PCB layout (single layer) is shown in Figure 7.
4.1
Crcuit description
With this board it is possible to amplify three analog signals Left, Right, Subwoofer coming
from separated sources or to generate the BASS part to be sent to the Subwoofer via a
passive crossover network.
All the three channels have a Linear DC volume Control.

It is advisable at this point to modify the value of the DC decoupling capacitors in such a way to
send to L and R speakers only the high frequencies.
For example the frequency response shown in Figure 8. was obtained with Rl = 8ohm, C5=C9=
100uF, R3=R6= 4K7 and C11=220nF
Note: In order to give the input freq response less sensitive to the spread in the Input
Impedance (Rin parameter) , it is possible to add externally two resitors R2,R7 in parallel to
Rin.

Output Stage
The fully complementary output stage was made possible by the development of a new
component: the ST exclusive power ICV PNP.
A novel design based upon the connection shown in Figure 9. has then allowed the full
exploitation of its possibilities.
The clear advantages this new approach has over classical output stages are as follows:
5.5
CD00061065
15/23
STA543SA
5 General structure
Classical solutions adopting composite PNP-NPN for the upper output stage have higher
saturation loss on the top side of the waveform.
This unbalanced saturation causes a significant power reduction. The only way to recover
power consists of the addition of expensive bootstrap capacitors.

5 General structure
Thermal shutdown
Output fault:
short to GND
short to VS
The information is available across an open collector output (pin 12) through a current sinking
when the event is detected
Figure 10. Clipping Detection Waveforms
A current sinking at pin 12 is provided when a certain distortion level is reached at each output.
This function allows gain compression facility whenever the amplifier is overdriven.
5.7.2
Thermal Shutdown
In this case the output 12 will signal the proximity of the junction temperature to the shutdown
threshold. Typically current sinking at pin 12 will start ~10C before the shutdown threshold is
reached.

6 Thermal Information
Thermal Information
In order to avoid the thermal protection intervention that is placed at Tj=150C (Thermal
Muting) or Tj=160C (Thermal Shut-down), it is important the Heat Sinker RTH (C/W)
dimensioning.
The parameters that influence the dimensioning are:
6.1
2Vcc
Vcc
P d ma x = 2 ------------------ + ----------------- = 2 2.62 + 10.5 = 15.76W

150 50
(Heat sink) RTHc-a = --------------------------------------- R TH j c = ---------------------- 2 = 4.3 C/W
P dm ax
15.76
NOTE: The values found gives an heatsinker that is dimensioned to sustain the max. dissipated
power, but as explained in the Application Note (AN1965) the heatsinker can be smaller when
we consider the real application where a musical program is used.
If we consider the so called "Average Listening Dissipated Power" concept we obtain a value
that is about 40% less respect the Pdmax (see AN1965 for reference).
So in the examples (A) and we will obtain the value for the Average Listening Dissipated Power
that is respectively:
-Example (A) : 15.76 W - 40% = 9.45W that gives RTHc-a = 8.5C/W
In Figure 15. is shown the Power Derating curve for the device
