MA5332MS
MERUS™ 2-channel analog input class D audio amplifier multichip module
The MERUS™ MA5332MS multichip module offers the same or even higher output power as monolithic alternatives without a heatsink and 50 percent less footprint. This MCM (multi-chip module) solution integrates a dual-channel PWM controller, high-voltage gate driver, and 4 low RDS(ON) MOSFETs. Like its predecessor, IR43x2M, it includes standard class D protection features for reliable operation over various environmental conditions. As a powerful upgrade to IR43x2M and other monolithic solutions, the MA5332MS’ 7x7 mm PG- IQFN-42 package showcases the benefit of a small footprint, high power density, and operation without a heatsink.
Summary of Features
