Class AB stereo line driver for portable and industrial audio
Integrated depop circuitry eliminates the power-on pop that otherwise requires external mute FETs or timing capacitors. Short-circuit and thermal protection reduce the risk of field failures in unenclosed or vented enclosures. A shutdown pin allows the amplifier to be gated by a system GPIO for power savings when the audio path is idle.
Sourcing and lifecycle — no obsolescence risk
The DRV601RTJT is listed as Active on TI's product status. No last-time-buy or end-of-life notices are in effect. For a BOM line that needs a stable audio driver across multiple production runs, this part carries no discontinuity risk. ROHS3 compliant, lead-free, no exemptions expiring. Sourced through independent distribution, the DRV601RTJT is quoted to order against an RFQ.
