Functional Description
1
Prevents current from entering the amplifier’s non-inverting input. This current may pass through to the load
during system power down, because of the amplifier’s low input impedance when the undervoltage circuitry
is off. This phenomenon occurs when the V
+
and V
-
supply voltages are below 1.5V.
Inverting input resistance. Along with R
f
, sets AC gain.
Feedback resistance. Along with R
i
, sets AC gain.
Feedback resistance. Works with Cf and Rf creating a lowpass filter that lowers AC gain at high
frequencies. The -3dB point of the pole occurs when: (R

Provides high impedance at high frequencies so that R may decouple a highly capacitive load and reduce
the Q of the series resonant circuit. Also provides a low impedance at low frequencies to short out R and
pass audio signals to the load. Refer to
Figure 5

Provides DC voltage biasing for the transistor Q1 in single supply operation.
