Abstract:
A class D amplifier and a method of pulse width modulation are provided. The class D amplifier includes a sigma delta modulator, a reference signal generator, a pulse width modulator and an amplifier. The sigma delta modulator converts an M bit input signal into N bit pulse code modulation data (M and N are integers and M>N). The reference signal generator counts a system clock and generates an N bit reference signal having 2N data blocks in a sampling period of the pulse code modulation data. The pulse width modulator generates a plurality of pulse width modulation signals having at least two switching periods within the sampling period of the pulse code modulation data. The pulse width modulation signals have pulse widths varied based on a unit time interval of the reference signal. The unit time interval corresponds to one of the data blocks of the reference signal.
Abstract:
There is provided a phase-locked loop lock detector circuit for detecting a lock or unlock state of a PLL circuit. A synchronization circuit synchronizes a lock window signal with a reference frequency signal. A rising edge detection circuit and a falling edge detection circuit output a state of an error signal at a rising edge of an output signal of the synchronization circuit and at a rising edge of an inverted lock window signal, respectively. A logic circuit performs an AND operation on outputs of the detection circuits, and outputs a signal indicating the lock or unlock state.
Abstract:
In a method of detecting a fault in a class D amplifier, an amplifier output signal is generated based on inverting a pulse width modulation signal corresponding to received audio data. The amplifier output signal is low pass filtered and hysteretically filtered (Schmitt Triggered). The filtered amplifier output signal is sampled (latched) using the pulse width modulation signal as a sampling (latch) clock signal, to generate a first comparison signal. The pulse width modulation signal is sampled (latched) using the filtered amplifier output signal as a sampling (latch) clock signal, to generate a second comparison signal. A fault detection signal for detecting the fault is generated by comparing the first and second comparison signals. Since the first pulse width modulation signal and the filtered amplifier output signal are robustly compared, a fault occurrence may be directly and reliably detected.
Abstract:
A signal quality measuring method and apparatus in which a quality of a signal detected from an RF signal read out from a disk or a communications channel is measured by using eye pattern signals of the detected RF signals. Eye pattern signals representing time change of a waveform of the detected signal are generated and a signal quality value is generated based on an eye depth and/or an eye width measured from the eye pattern signals. A histogram of the eye pattern signals is used to identify a plurality of main level values which are used as a reference value in measuring the signal quality. Accordingly, signal characteristics in a high-density storage medium system or communication system may be accurately represented.
