LOW FREQUENCY ROLL OFF WITH OUTPUT
CAPACITORS
The DC voltage on the outputs of the TS486/487
is blocked by the output capacitors COUT1 and
COUT2 . Each output capacitor COUT in series with
the resistance of the load RL is equivalent to a first
order high pass filter.
Assuming that Fmin is the lowest frequency to be
amplified (with a 3dB attenuation), the minimum
value of COUT is:
COUT > 1 / (2*π*Fmin*RL)
The following curve gives directly the low roll-off

DECOUPLING CAPACITOR CB
The internal bias voltage at Vcc/2 is decoupled
with the external capacitor CB.
The TS486 and TS487 have a specified Power
Supply Rejection Ratio parameter with CB = 1µF.
A higher value of CB improves the PSRR, for
example, a 4.7µF improves the PSRR by 15dB at
200Hz (please, refer to fig. 76 "PSRR vs Bypass
Capacitor").
POP PRECAUTIONS
Generally headphones are connected using a
connector as a jack. To prevent a pop in the
headphones when plugged in the jack, a resistor
should be connected in parallel with each
headphone output. This allows the capacitors
Cout to be charged even when no headphone is
plugged.
A resistor of 1 kΩ is high enough to be a negligible
load, and low enough to charge the capacitors
Cout in less than one second.
