FBC
Feedback resistor connected from either the OUT1A/OUT2A to
FBKOUT1/FBKOUT2 or OUT1B/OUT2B to FBKGND1/FBKGND2. The value of this

Application Information Section.
C
FB
Feedback delay capacitor that both lowers the idle switching frequency and filters
high frequency noise from the feedback signal, which improves amplifier
performance. The value of C
FB
should be offset between channel 1 and channel 2
so that the idle switching difference is greater than 40kHz. Please refer to the
Application / Test Circuit.
R
OFB
Potentiometer used to manually trim the DC offset on the output of the TK2019.
R
OFA
Resistor that limits the manual DC offset trim range and allows for more precise
adjustment.
R
REF
Bias resistor. Locate close to pin 15 and ground at pin 20.
C
S
Supply decoupling for the power supply pins. For optimum performance, these
components should be located close to the TC2001/TPS1035 and returned to their
respective ground as shown in the Application/Test Circuit.
C
Z
Zobel capacitor, which in conjunction with R
Z
, terminates the output filter at high
frequencies. Use a high quality film capacitor capable of sustaining the ripple current
caused by the switching outputs.
R
Z
Zobel resistor, which in conjunction with C
Z
, terminates the output filter at high
frequencies. The combination of R
Z
and C
Z
minimizes peaking of the output filter
under both no load conditions or with real world loads, including loudspeakers which
usually exhibit a rising impedance with increasing frequency. The recommended
power rating is 1 Watt.

waveform into an audio signal. Forms a second order filter with a cutoff frequency

– GND on each supply pin. A 35V rating is
required for this component.
C
BOOT
Boot strap capacitor that enables the charge pump for the high side gate drive for
the internal H-bridge.
D
BOOT
Bootstrap diode. This diode charges up the bootstrap capacitor when the output is
at ground to drive the high side gate circuitry. A fast or ultra fast recovery diode is
recommended for the bootstrap circuitry. In addition, the bootstrap diode must be
able to sustain the entire VDD voltage. Thus a 50V (or greater) diode should be
used.

DM
Differential mode capacitor that reduces residual switching noise.
