A transmitting device for driving a high-frequency antenna of a magnetic-resonance device using a target signal capable of being amplitude-modulated is provided. A number N of similarly embodied amplifier modules, where N is at least two, a signal-conditioning device, and a combining device for combining output signals of the amplifier modules into the target signal are provided. The signal-conditioning device generates N drive signals having a predetermined pulse frequency that consist of pulses having a length dependent on a desired target amplitude and having a phase corresponding to the desired target phase and a frequency corresponding to the desired target frequency. The pulses of the individual drive signals are mutually offset in time by, in each case, 1/N of a pulse period corresponding to the pulse frequency. Each drive signal is fed to an amplifier module.
