STMicroelectronics recommends using a 10uF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 100nF ceramic capacitor, both connected as close as possible to the power supply pins (VP and VN) to ensure stable operation.
The gain setting of the TDA7499 can be optimized by adjusting the values of resistors R1 and R2 in the feedback network. A higher gain setting can be achieved by increasing the value of R1 or decreasing the value of R2. However, be careful not to exceed the maximum gain recommended in the datasheet to avoid oscillations.
The maximum power dissipation of the TDA7499 is dependent on the ambient temperature and the thermal resistance of the package. According to the datasheet, the maximum power dissipation is 20W at 25°C ambient temperature for the PowerSSO-36 package. However, this value can be derated for higher ambient temperatures.
To protect the TDA7499 from back-EMF and voltage transients, STMicroelectronics recommends using a diode (e.g. 1N4007) in parallel with the speaker load to clamp the voltage. Additionally, a TVS diode (e.g. SMAJ24A) can be used to protect the IC from voltage transients on the power supply lines.
To ensure optimal performance and minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI), STMicroelectronics recommends a PCB layout that separates the analog and power supply sections, uses a solid ground plane, and keeps the signal traces as short as possible. Additionally, the power supply decoupling capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the power supply pins.
