Product details

The 4.1W rating into 4Ω is the maximum continuous output power per channel at the specified load and supply voltage.

Depop, differential inputs, shutdown — why they matter

The depop circuit eliminates the audible pop when the amplifier turns on or off, which is critical for battery-powered devices where the amp cycles with the audio stream. Differential inputs reject ground-loop noise picked up on long input traces — useful when the audio source is a separate codec or Bluetooth module on the same board. The shutdown pin pulls the quiescent current to near zero, extending standby life in portable gear.

WLP package — plan the assembly process

The 16-WLP package is a bare-die-scale package with solder bumps directly on the die.

Frequently asked questions

Can MAX98502EWE+T drive a 4Ω speaker directly?

Yes, the MAX98502EWE+T is rated for 4.1W into a 4Ω load, so it can drive a 4Ω speaker directly within that power limit.
