Dear Support Team,
I am using the TDA7293 as per datasheet recommendations. I am also using the MUTE and STBY pins but not the CLIP-DET pin. Everything is working without any issues. My question is: 1. Can I connect the CLIP-DET pin on TDA7293 to the MUTE pin using a 1N4148 diode such that the anode connects to the MUTE pin and the cathode connects the CLIP-DET pin? My idea is to mute the amplifier whenever it clips. 2. Is the TDA7293 sensitive about the voltage on STBY pin during start-up? Is there any condition around the voltage on STBY pin (e.g. OPEN) such that under that condition the IC can get damaged or just blow-up? 3. There are some threads around on the internet about the TDA7293 getting blown-up. What are the specific conditions under which this can happen? 4. Can I use the TDA7293 as a non-inv V-I converter such that the loudspeaker and the current sense resistors become the gain resistors? Thanks in advance!! With warm regards, Ravindra.2016-06-02 07:45 PM
