INDUCTOR SELECTION
The TPA6141A2 requires one inductor for its DC/DC converter. The following table lists recommended inductors.
Inductors not shown on this table can be used if they have similar performance characteristics.
When selecting an inductor observe the following rules:
• Lower DCR increases DC/DC converter efficiency.
• The minimum working inductance should never be below 1 μH.
• Include temperature and aging derating factors into the inductor value calculations.

GAIN CONTROL
The TPA6141A2 has two gain settings which are controlled with the GAIN pin. The following table gives an
overview of the gain function.

GROUND SENSE FUNCTION
The ground sense pin, SGND, reduces ground-loop noise when the audio output jack is connected to a different
ground reference than codec and amplifier ground. Always connect the SGND pin to the headphone jack. This
reduces output offset voltage and eliminates turn-on pop. Figure 27 shows how to connect SGND when an FM
radio antenna function is implemented on the headphone wire. The nH coil and capacitor separate the RF signal
from the audio GND signal. In this case, SGND is used to eliminate the offset voltage that is generated from the
audio signal current and the RF coil low-frequency impedance.
The voltage difference between SGND and AGND cannot be greater than ±300 mV. The amplifier performance
degrades if the voltage difference between SGND and AGND is greater than ±300 mV.
