The TPA701 MSOP Audio Power Amplifier Evaluation Module The TPA701 amplifier IC, like most other amplifiers, exhibits its best distortion and noise performance at lower gain levels (see the TPA701 data sheet). Even so, the TPA701 at its highest gain setting has significantly less distortion than most low-cost speakers. Gain versus total harmonic distortion (THD) should be considered in each application. Both the module input signal level and the TPA701 MSOP module gain should be adjusted to obta
