The TS472 also includes a common-mode feedback loop that controls the output bias value to average it at VCC/2. This allows the device to always have a maximum output voltage swing, and by consequence, maximize the input dynamic voltage range. The advantages of a fully-differential amplifier are: Very high PSRR (power supply rejection ratio). ● High common mode noise rejection. ● In theory, the filtering of the internal bias by an external bypass capacitor is not necessary. However, to reach maximum performance in all tolerance situations, it is better to keep this option. Higher cut-off frequency The higher cut-off frequency FCH of the microphone preamplifier depends on the external capacitors C1, C2. TS472 has an internal first order low-pass filter (R = 40 kΩ, C = 100 pF) to limit the highest cut-off frequency on 40 kHz (with a 3 dB attenuation). By connecting C1, C2 you can decrease FCH by applying the following formula. 1 F CH = --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------3 – 12 2π ⋅ 40 × 10 ⋅ ( C 1, 2 + 100 × 10 ) Figure 32 represents the higher cut-off frequency in Hz versus the value of the output capacitors C1, C2 in nF. Figure 32. Higher cut-off frequency vs. output capacitors 40 Higher Cut-off Frequency (kHz) 4.2 ● 10 1 200 400 600 C1, C2 (pF) 800 1000 For example, FCH is almost 20 kHz with C1,2 = 100 pF. Doc ID 11015 Rev 6 13/25 Application information 4.3 TS472 Lower cut-off frequency The lower cut-off frequency FCL of the microphone preamplifier depends on the input capacitors Cin and output capacitors Cout. These input and output capacitors are mandatory in an application because of DC voltage blocking. The input capacitors Cin in series with the input impedance of the TS472 (100 kΩ) are equivalent to a first order high-pass filter. Assuming that FCL is the lowest frequency to be amplified (with a 3 dB attenuation), the minimum value of Cin is: 1 C in = -----------------------------------------------------3 2π ⋅ F CL ⋅ 100 × 10 The capacitors Cout in series with the output resistors Rout (or an input impedance of the next stage) are also equivalent to a first order high-pass filter. Assuming that FCL is the lowest frequency to be amplified (with a 3 dB attenuation), the minimum value of Cout is: 1 C out = -----------------------------------------2π ⋅ F CL ⋅ R out Figure 33. Lower cut-off frequency vs. input capacitors Figure 34. Lower cut-off frequency vs. output capacitors 1000 1000 Rout=10kΩ Lower Cut-off frequency (Hz) Lower Cut-off frequency (Hz) ZinMAX Typical Zin 100 ZinMIN 10 1 10 Cin (nF) 100 100 Rout=100kΩ 10 1 10 100 1000 Cout (nF) Figure 33 and Figure 34 give directly the lower cut-off frequency (with 3 dB attenuation) versus the value of the input or output capacitors. Note: If FCL is kept the same for calculation purposes, take into account that the 1st order highpass filter on the input and the 1st order high-pass filter on the output create a 2nd order high-pass filter in the audio signal path with an attenuation of 6 dB on FCL and a roll-off of 40 dB/decade. 4.4 Low-noise microphone bias source The TS472 provides a very low noise voltage and power supply rejection BIAS source designed for biasing an electret condenser microphone cartridge. The BIAS output is typically set at 2.0 VDC (no load conditions), and can typically source 2 mA with respect to drop-out, determined by the internal 100 Ω resistance (for detailed load regulation curves see Figure 8). 14/25 Doc ID 11015 Rev 6 TS472 Application information 4.5 Gain settings The gain in the application depends mainly on: ● the sensitivity of the microphone, ● the distance to the microphone, ● the audio level of the sound, ● the desired output level. The sensitivity of the microphone is generally expressed in dB/Pa, referenced to 1 V/Pa. For example, the microphone used in testing had an output voltage of 6.3 mV for a sound pressure of 1 Pa (where Pa is the pressure unit, Pascal). Expressed in dB, the sensitivity is: 20Log(0.0063) = -44 dB/Pa To facilitate the first approach, Table 10 gives voltages and gains used with a low-cost omnidirectional electret condenser microphone of -44 dB/Pa. Table 10. Typical TS472 gain vs. distance to the microphone (sensitivity -44 dB/Pa) Distance to microphone Microphone output voltage TS472 gain 1 cm 30 mVRMS 20 20 cm 3 mVRMS 100 The gain of the TS472 microphone preamplifier can be set as follows. 1. From -1.5 dB to 41 dB by connecting an external grounded resistor RGS to the GS pin. This enables the gain to be adapted more precisely to each application. Table 11.

This setting can help to reduce a number of external components in an application, because 2.0 VDC is provided by the TS472 itself on the BIAS pin. Doc ID 11015 Rev 6 15/25 Application information TS472 Figure 37 gives other values of the gain vs. voltage applied on the GS pin. Figure 37.

One must also take into account that all advantages of the differential configuration principles are lost (see the difference in PSRR in Table 5). 4.6 Wake-up time When the standby mode is released to switch the device to ON, a signal appears on the output a few microseconds later, and the bypass capacitor Cb is charged within a few milliseconds. As Cb is directly linked to the bias of the amplifier, the bias will not work properly until the Cb voltage is correct. In a typical application, when a biased microphone is connected to the differential input via the input capacitors (Cin), (and the output signal is in line with the specification), the wake-up time will depend upon the values of the input capacitors Cin and the gain. When the gain is lower than 0 dB, the wake-up time is determined only by the bypass capacitor Cb, as described above. For a gain superior to 0 dB, refer to Figure 38. Figure 38.

To obtain high power supply rejection and low noise performance, it is mandatory that the layout track to these components be as short as possible. Decoupling capacitors on VCC and bypass pin are needed to eliminate power supply drops. In addition, the capacitor location for the dedicated pin should be as close to the device as possible. Single-ended input configuration It is possible to use the TS472 in a single-ended input configuration. The schematic in Figure 39 provides an example of this type of configuration. Figure 39.
