Product specification
2 x 22 W BTL stereo car radio power
amplifier with speaker protection
TDA1557Q
PINNING
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA1557Q contains two identical amplifiers with
differential input stages, and can be used for bridge
applications. The gain of each amplifier is fixed at 46 dB.
Special features of this device are:

when a short circuit to ground is made, which forces a
DC voltage of ≥ 1 V across the loudspeaker, a built-in
protection circuit becomes active and limits the DC
voltage across the loudspeaker to ≤ 1 V
