Note 1: U-PRO is fully protected for ZL < ZL Min. Connection of loads < ZL Min is not recommended as a low load impedance in
combination with the amplifier current limit will limit maxim output power.
* Using the U-PRO2 Amplifier module in BTL mode (Bridge Tied Load) is not allowed, as the two output channels have asymmetrical
power ratings, and current limits.

Note 1: For details see U-PRO Application Manual covering Powered Speaker
Note 2: The Auxiliary power supply cannot be loaded with the maximum rated load current for all four outputs simultaneously as this
will violate the 9 Watt total output power limit. Use the typical Voltage levels from Table 2-5 in combination with the actual load
currents to calculate the total power consumption. The calculated total power consumption must comply with the 9 Watt total output
power limit.

4 Control and readout specification
4.1 Control pins

തതതതതതത
‫ – ܍ܜܝۻ‬When muting the U-PRO1/U-PRO2 module, the amplifier outputs will be disabled. It typically takes
0.5ms to disable and only 1ms to enable the amplifier.
The mute function may be used with an external wake-on-music circuit to lower the mains power
consumption when the module is unused, but still with the module ready to play in typically 1ms – making
it unnoticeable for the user.
തതതതതതതതതതത – With the U-PRO1/U-PRO2 module in standby the mains power consumption is put to a
‫ܡ܊܌ܖ܉ܜ܁‬
minimum. In standby it is possible to comply with the ErP directive (1275/2008/EC) & Energy Star
specification with a total power consumption of less than 0.5W. This includes a current draw of up to 25
mA on the +7.5V supply for external standby control circuitry.
Signal_Present – This signal is part of the “Wake on Music” function built into the U-PRO1/U-PRO2
module. If left open the signal is internally pulled high and “Wake on Music” is not used. If pulled low
continuously for a selectable amount of time set by the “Signal Time Out Select” the amplifiers will first
be muted to save power but are still able to be un-muted within 1ms. If signal present continues to be low
the U-PRO1/U-PRO2 module will enter standby mode. The U-PRO1/U-PRO2 module exits standby mode as
soon as the signal present signal is released and is ready within typically 660ms.
A suitable circuit for sensing the audio with a sensitivity of 4mVrms and controlling the Signal Present pin
can be found in the U-PRO Series Application Manual.
Signal_TimeOut – This signal is part of the “Wake on Music” function built into the U-PRO1/U-PRO2
module. Placing a resistor from this pin to GND makes it possible to choose between 3 different timing
settings. See the U-PRO Series Application Manual for details.
T-V_Sel/SMPS_OL – This pin can be either an input or an output depending on the selected timing
resistor connected to Signal_TimeOut (pin 14) described above. In the Temp/VAC mode, it will be an input
pin – possible to toggle – allowing to read out either the mains voltage or amplifier temperature in real-
time. In the Low Rail mode, it is an output pin indicating whether the (+/-70V) rail voltages are below +/-
50V, or not – useful for a Front End circuit to activate a limiter that prevents the rail voltages from being
pulled below the level where sound will disappear temporarily.
4.2 Readout pins
The U-PRO1/U-PRO2 module has various readouts to monitor the state of the module.
Temp/VAC_Out – Amplifier temperature or mains voltage readout; by toggling a control-pin, either mains
voltage, or amplifier temperature can be read real-time.
 Amplifier temperature – The output stage temperature from 0-100° is expressed as a DC voltage
from 0-3.3V. When the module enters thermal protection at 85°C, equivalent to 2.805V, the
voltage will jump to 3.3 V indicating thermal protection is active. This makes it possible to both
read the live temperature and read when the module is disabled due to thermal protection. The
module exits thermal protection when the temperature drops below 80°C and the voltage will
return to a live readout of the actual maximum temperature.
 Mains voltage – The AC mains voltage from 85-265VAC is expressed as a DC voltage from 0.213V
to 2.925V. This readout may be used to adjust external limiters to match the mains voltage
dependent output power.
Amplifier Output Voltage readout – There are two amplifier output voltage readouts
Vout_Monitor_Ch1 and Vout_Monitor_Ch2, one for each channel. These readouts are voltage divisions of
the output signals in the range of ±10 Vp corresponding to ±70Vp at the output.
തതതതതതത only. This readout is an open-
Amplifier Clip readout – There is one amplifier clip readout, Clip_1
collector output. The readout pin will be pulled low if the (audio) output voltage for Ch1 becomes too high
compared to the internal rail voltages (Voltage Clipping), or if the Ch1 amplifier reaches internal current
protection. This readout may be used for signal clip/limiting indications. There is no voltage clip readout
for Ch2 since this is an HF channel not normally clipped and if clipped the distortion is less obvious.
Current clipping on a HF driver is not normally reached but in case current clipping on Ch2 occurs, this
event is shown as clip on the Ch1 clip readout - തതതതതതത
Clip_1.
തതതതതതതതതതതതതതതതതതതതതതത
۲ܑ‫܌܉܍܀_ܛ‬/‫ – ܜ܋܍ܜܗܚ۾‬This readout is an open-collector output which will be pulled low when the module is
either muted or has entered an internal protection.
5 Protection features
The U-PRO1/U-PRO2 has built-in protection features to protect the amplifier module against abuse and/or
extreme use scenarios, and to protect the speaker drivers from being damaged in case of a malfunction.
Temperature – Temperature protection of the power supply and amplifiers is implemented to prevent
the module from thermal runaway. When thermal protection is engaged both amplifiers are muted until
the temperature has dropped 5°C, or for a minimum of 10s.
Over Current – If an amplifier output is shorted or reaches its current limit, the clip readout will be
activated to allow an external limiter/DSP to limit the input signal. If the limiter is not capable of limiting
the signal, the module will enter over-current protection and mute the amplifier output(s) until the
internal protection timing allows the module to re-enable the amplifier(s).
DC Protection – If DC-voltage is detected at one of the amplifier outputs, the U-PRO1/U-PRO2 mutes the
outputs. If DC still is present after 3 cycles, the U-PRO1/U-PRO2 DC protection circuit switches off the +/-
70V power supply. Resetting of the latched protection circuit requires cycling of the AC mains.
HF Protection – A high frequency protection is implemented to protect the amplifier output filter
components from overload – refer to Figure 3-23. If a high frequency (and high amplitude) signal is
present for a longer period of time, the module will enter HF protection and mute (both) amplifier
output(s) until the internal protection timing allows the module to re-enable the amplifier(s).

This signal is part of the “Wake on Music” function built into the U-PRO
series modules. If left open the signal is internally pulled high and
“Wake on Music” is not used. If pulled low continuously for a
selectable amount of time set by the “Signal Time Out Select” the
Signal_Present 12 - amplifier(s) will first mute to save power but still be able to un-mute
within 1ms. If the signal present continues to be low the U-PRO series
module will enter standby mode. The U-PRO series module exits
standby mode as soon as the signal present signal is released and is

Signal_TimeOut 14 I Table 6-3 for a list of resistor values and corresponding timings. If the
Signal Present input is not used the Signal_TimeOut pin can be left
unconnected.
This pin can be either an input or an output depending on the selected
T-V_Sel/SMPS_OL 15 I/O

If timing resistor T1, T2 or T3 is selected (see Table 6-3) it will be an
input pin where it is possible to select either temperature or AC mains
readout for the signal Temp/Vac_Mon (pin 6). If pin 15 is left un-
connected, the internal pull-up will by default select temperature as
the read out on pin 6. If pin 15 is actively pulled low by an open-
collector, the mains RMS voltage will be the read out on pin 6.
If timing resistor T1(Low Rail), T2(Low Rail) or T3(Low Rail) is selected
(see Table 6-3) it will be an output pin that indicates whether the (+/-
70V) the rail voltage is below +/-50V.
