General Description

The APA2178 is a stereo, fixed gain, Cap-Free headphone driver which is available in a WLCSP2x2-16 package.

The APA2178 is a ground-reference output, and doesn’t need the output capacitors for DC blocking. The advantages of eliminating the output capacitor are saving the cost, PCB’s space, and component height.

The built-in gain setting can minimize the external component counts and save the PCB space. High PSRR provides increased immunity to noise and RF rectification. In addition to these features, a fast startup time and small package size make the APA2178 an ideal choice for portable multimedia device.
