In shutdown mode, each amplifier’s circuitry, high-frequency noise can couple into the output resistance is high impedance to small signals. amplifier’s input traces. The signals appear at the The resulting output resistance seen by the load is amplifier’s inputs as common-mode noise.

When configured for differential inputs, the voltage gain of the MAX9727 is set by:
Click-and-Pop Suppression
In conventional single-supply audio amplifiers, the out- R A F = 1 put-coupling capacitor contributes significantly to audi- V RIN1 ble clicks and pops. Upon startup, the amplifier charges the coupling capacitor to its bias voltage, typically half where A the supply. Likewise, on shutdown, the capacitor is dis- V is the desired voltage gain in V/V. RIN1 must be equal to RIN2, and RF1 must be equal to RF2. charged. This results in a DC shift across the capacitor, which appears as an audible transient at the speaker The common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) is limited by connected to the output of the power amplifier of the the external resistor-matching.

Since the MAX9727 does not require out- highest possible CMRR the following condition should put-coupling capacitors, this problem does not arise. be met: Additionally, the MAX9727 features extensive click-and- pop suppression that eliminates any audible transient R R F1 F2 = sources internal to the device. R R IN1 IN2 In some applications, the output of the device driving the MAX9727 may have a DC bias. At startup, the input-coupling capacitor is charged to the input RF1 device’s DC-bias voltage through the input and feed- back resistors of the MAX9727, resulting in a DC shift across the capacitor and an audible click/pop.
