Frequently Asked Questions
How much output power can the MAX98360BENL+ deliver, and at what supply voltage?
The MAX98360BENL+ delivers up to 3.2 W of continuous output power into a 4 Ω speaker load when operating from a 5 V supply. At 3 V, output power reduces to approximately 1.4 W into 4 Ω. Its Class-D topology achieves around 92% efficiency, which greatly reduces the heat dissipated compared with linear Class-AB amplifiers at similar power levels.
What audio interface does the MAX98360BENL+ use, and does it require external passive components?
The MAX98360BENL+ accepts a standard I2S digital audio input and requires no external analog filters, gain-setting resistors, or bootstrap capacitors for basic operation. A single decoupling capacitor on the supply rail and a speaker output LC filter are typically sufficient, making the bill of materials extremely small — often under 5 components total — which accelerates prototype development and reduces PCB area.
For a smartwatch or wearable device, how small is the MAX98360BENL+ package footprint?
The MAX98360BENL+ is housed in a 9-bump WLCSP package measuring approximately 1.595 × 1.415 mm, one of the smallest footprints available for an integrated Class-D amplifier. The bump pitch is 0.4 mm, allowing placement in the tightest PCB keepout zones typical in smartwatch modules, hearing-aid platforms, and miniature IoT audio nodes.
How does the MAX98360BENL+ protect speakers and downstream circuitry from fault conditions?
The MAX98360BENL+ includes integrated speaker protection features such as short-circuit current limiting, thermal shutdown activating above approximately 150°C junction temperature, and click-and-pop suppression during power-up and power-down sequences. These built-in protections reduce the need for external protection circuits, simplifying design while safeguarding both the amplifier and connected 4 Ω or 8 Ω loudspeakers in consumer products.
