Dumb question: wire link possible between PWM controller and PWM input amp ?

Hi,


I'm pretty sure this is a stupid question (because of EMi and high freq...), but I dare asking.


Can there be a short (10-15cm) wire connection between an audio PWM controller (like TAS5508 or STA311) and PWM input amps (like TAS5634 or STA508) ?


Context:


I Look at more power than STA326, and it seems that it only comes in 2 packages: controller + power amp.


I need multi amp, so I wonder if a modular design is an option with 1 controller board and several amp boards.


I looked at respective datasheets and did not found the answer. Only warnings about EMI and high freqs...

Hello and thanks for the feedback. I had a similar answer from the TI staff on the TI community forum. Should be good for 10-15 cm.


At the moment, I balance between:
- keeping my current FDA path (STA326) open loop controller + PWM input amp,
- move to latest TI designs, like TPA/TAS3251, with a bit of feedback (closed loop)...


Fort controller + PWM input amps, I don't see so many efforts in improving those ranges of chips over the last years (TI / ST)...
