Power Supply (PSU) Interface (J70, J71, and J73) 2.1 Power Supply (PSU) Interface (J70, J71, and J73) The TAS5508−5121K8EVM module must be powered from external power supplies. High-end audio performance requires a stabilized power supply with low ripple voltage and low output impedance. Note: The length of the power supply cable must be minimized. Increasing length of PSU cable is equal to increasing the distortion for the amplifier at high output levels and low frequencies.

Short-Circuit Protection and Fault-Reporting Circuitry 3.1 Short-Circuit Protection and Fault-Reporting Circuitry The TAS5121 is a self-protecting device that provides device fault reporting (including high-temperature protection and short-circuit protection). The TAS5121 is configured in back-end auto-recovery mode and, therefore, resets automatically after all errors (M1, M2, and M3 is set low).
Device Fault Reporting 3.2 Device Fault Reporting The OTW and SD outputs from the TAS5121 indicate fault conditions. See the TAS5121 data sheet (SLES086) for a description of these pins. The temperature warning signals at the TAS5508−5121K8EVM board are wired-OR to one temperature warning signal [OTW – pin 22 in control interface connector (J30)]. Shutdown signals are wired-OR into two shutdown signals [SD1 and SD2 – pin 20 and pin 21 in control interface connector (J30)].
