Abstract

See full text

A circuit, system and method provide the suppression of pop at power up of audio amplifiers. The output driver is tri-stated at power up and is enabled after a predetermined time constant. In one embodiment, the output driver includes a MOS transistor pair connected in a push-pull configuration and switches that are under the control of a delay circuit. the. The output driver and the delay circuit may be part of a power amplifier in an audio system. The delay circuit may be implemented using mixed analog and digital signals or a digital controller configured to receive a clock frequency and execute a machine readable program code. The delay circuit is responsive for the start-up behavior of the audio system.
