5 Conclusions

As demonstrated in this document, the thermal foldback in TAS2110, TAS2562, TAS2563 and TAS2564 enables these amplifiers to output audio as the die temperature approaches 140°C. The necessary configuration for this feature can be applied directly from PurePath Console 3 and, as shown in this application note, it is very straightforward and yet very flexible for every use-case.
