Power Supply and Grounding
The CS3511 requires careful attention to power supply and grounding arrangements if its potential perfor-
mance is to be realized.
Extensive use of power and ground planes, ground plane fill in unused areas and surface mount decoupling
capacitors are recommended. It is necessary to de-couple the power supply by placing capacitors directly
between the power and ground of the CS3511. Decoupling capacitors should be as close to the pins of the
CS3511 as possible. The lowest value ceramic capacitor should be closest to the pin and should be mount-
ed on the same side of the board as the CS3511 to minimize inductance effects. The CRD3511 reference
design demonstrates the optimum layout and power supply arrangements.
QFN Thermal Pad
The CS3511 is available in a compact QFN package. The underside of the QFN package reveals a large
metal pad that serves as a thermal relief to provide for maximum heat dissipation. This pad must mate with
an equally dimensioned copper pad on the PCB and must be electrically connected to PGND. A series of
thermal vias should be used to connect this copper pad to one or more larger ground planes on other PCB
layers; the copper in these ground planes will act as a heat sink for the CS3511. The CRD3511 reference
design demonstrates the optimum thermal pad and via configuration.
Layout Considerations
The CS3511 is a power (high current) amplifier that operates at relatively high switching frequencies. The
outputs of the amplifier switch between the supply voltage and ground, at high speeds, while driving high
currents. This high-frequency digital signal is passed through an LC low-pass filter to recover the amplified
audio signal. Since the amplifier must drive the inductive LC output filter and speaker loads, the amplifier
outputs can be pulled above the supply voltage and below ground by the energy in the output inductance.
Additionally, the CS3511’s junction temperature rises when supplying power to loads and relies on the PCB
for heat sinking.
To avoid subjecting the CS3511 to potentially damaging voltage stress and output-power-limiting elevated
junction temperatures, it is critical to have a good printed circuit board layout. It is strongly recommended
that the Cirrus CRD3511 layout be used for all applications and only be deviated from after careful analysis
of the effects of any changes. Please refer to Cirrus Logic application note AN315 for further information
regarding the layout of the CS3511.
Maximum Supply Voltage
The absolute maximum allowable voltage on the VP supply pins (pins 10, 15 and 20) is shown in the

pins during operation is shown in the
During normal operation, the output pins (pins 9, 12, 13, and 16) may experience overshoot voltages due
to inductive kickback. Care should be taken to properly de-couple the VP pins because overshoot on the
output pins can travel through the CS3511 output devices and appear on the VP pins. Without proper
power supply decoupling, this can cause ripple voltages on the VP pins that might exceed their absolute
maximum voltage shown in the
treme cases and can be prevented by placing the high-frequency decoupling capacitors close to the VP
pins.
