Frequently Asked Questions
What is DirectPath technology?
DirectPath eliminates the need for large DC-blocking output capacitors by using an internal charge pump to generate a negative supply rail. This enables ground-referenced output that drives headphones without coupling capacitors, saving PCB space and improving bass response.
How is volume controlled on LM49251?
The LM49251 includes a 32-step digital volume control accessible via I2C bus. Volume range is 0dB to -42dB in steps, plus mute. The I2C address is configurable. Volume changes include built-in soft-stepping to prevent audible clicks.
What headphone impedance does LM49251 drive?
LM49251 drives headphones from 16Ω to 600Ω. At 32Ω (typical), it delivers 30mW per channel at 0.01% THD+N. At 16Ω, output power increases to 50mW. High-impedance headphones (300-600Ω) work well with reduced power.
What is the power supply requirement?
LM49251 operates from 2.7V to 5.5V single supply. It internally generates the negative rail for DirectPath operation. Typical supply current is 3.5mA in playback. Shutdown mode reduces current to <1µA for battery conservation.
