Packing Tape and reel The device can be used as dual-bridge or reconfigured, by connecting pin CONFIG to pins VDD, as a single-bridge with double-current capability or as a half-bridge (binary mode) with half-current capability. A cost-effective, high fidelity audio system can be designed using ST chipset, including a modulator (e.g. the STA309A or STA321) and the STA516BE. This system only requires a simple passive LC demodulation filter to deliver high-quality, high efficiency audio amplification with prove EMI compliance. The efficiency of this digital amplifier is greater than 90% into 8 speakers, enabling the use of smaller power supplies and heatsinks. The STA516BE has an innovative integrated protection system, safeguarding the device against different fault conditions that could damage the overall system.

It is capable of driving a 6 W bridge tied load (BTL) at up 250 W per channel with very low noise at the output, low THD+N and low idle power dissipation. The STA516BE is available in PowerSO-36 slug up package. The package contains a heat slug that is located on the top side of the device for convenient thermal coupling to the heatsink.
