GETTING STARTED. Analog Devices SSM2375 Filterless Class-D Audio Amplifier
Below you will find brief information for Audio Amplifier SSM2375 Filterless Class-D Audio Amplifier. The SSM2375 is a high efficiency, Class-D audio amplifier designed to maximize performance for mobile phone applications. It requires a minimum of external components and operates from a single 2.5 V to 5.5 V supply. It is capable of delivering 3 W of continuous output power with less than 1% THD + N driving a 3 Ω load from a 5.0 V supply. The SSM2375 includes an optional modulation select pin that enables a low EMI mode, which significantly reduces the radiated emissions at the Class-D outputs, particularly above 100 MHz.

Frequently asked questions
The SSM2375 evaluation board provides a complete application circuit for driving a loudspeaker, enabling testing and evaluation of the SSM2375 audio amplifier.
The SSM2375 can deliver up to 3W of continuous output power with less than 1% THD + N driving a 3 Ω load from a 5.0 V supply.
The SSM2375 uses Spread spectrum pulse density modulation (PDM) to provide lower EMI-radiated emissions compared with other Class-D architectures. The inherent randomized nature of spread spectrum PDM eliminates clock intermodulation (beating effect) of several amplifiers in close proximity. The SSM2375 includes an optional modulation select pin that enables a low EMI mode, which significantly reduces the radiated emissions at the Class-D outputs, particularly above 100 MHz.
The SSM2375 evaluation board offers gain settings of 0 dB, 3 dB, 6 dB, 9 dB, and 12 dB, which can be selected by using jumpers on the board.
The recommended loudspeaker impedance for the SSM2375 evaluation board is 3 Ω or higher. Using a lower impedance may lead to excessive current draw and potential damage to the amplifier.
