Introduction

The STA538 is a digital stereo class-D audio amplifier. It includes an audio DSP, a ST proprietary high-efficiency class-D driver and CMOS power output stage. It is intended for high-efficiency digital-to-power-audio conversion for portable applications. The STA538 also provides output capabilities for FFXTM. In conjunction with a power device, the STA538 provides high-quality digital amplification.
