Power Supply (PSU) Interface (J901 and J900)
The TAS5518-5152K8EVM 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 power-supply cable must be minimized. Increasing the length of PSU cable
is equal to increasing the distortion for the amplifier at high output levels and low
frequencies.
Maximum output-stage supply voltage depends of the speaker load resistance. Check the recommended
maximum supply voltage in the TAS5152 data sheet.

The rated current corresponds to two-channel full scale (80 W each), which is adequate for a
standard eight-channel amplifier design.
The recommended TAS5152 power-up sequence is shown in Figure 2-1 . For proper TAS5152 operation,
the RESET signal should be kept low during power up. RESET is pulled low during power up for 200 ms
by the onboard reset generator (U73).
