Product details

Integrated features cut external BOM

Depop, mute, short-circuit and thermal protection, shutdown, and volume control are all on-chip. That means no external muting FETs, no separate protection supervisor, and no volume pot — the I²C volume control handles level setting from the system processor.

Industrial temperature range and active lifecycle

No LTB or NRND notices are in effect.

Frequently asked questions

What is the output power of MAX9744ETH+ per channel?

It delivers 22.5W per channel into a 4Ω load, stereo output.

Does MAX9744ETH+ require an external bootstrap capacitor?

No external bootstrap capacitor is needed — the integrated Class D output stage handles the bootstrap internally. The datasheet covers the full pinout and recommended external components.

What is the efficiency of MAX9744ETH+?

Class D amplifiers typically achieve >85% efficiency at full output. The exact efficiency curve is in the datasheet.

Can MAX9744ETH+ drive 4 ohm speakers?

Yes, it is rated for 22.5W per channel into 4Ω. It can drive 4Ω speakers.
