    Abstract: A driver system may include a first n-type field-effect transistor coupled at its non-gate terminals between an output of the driver system and a first terminal of a supply voltage and configured to drive the output when the first n-type field-effect transistor is activated, a second n-type field-effect transistor coupled at its non-gate terminals between an output of the driver system and a second terminal of the supply voltage and configured to drive the output when the second n-type field-effect transistor is activated, a high-side capacitor coupled to the output of the driver system, and a low-side capacitor coupled to the second terminal of the supply voltage, wherein the high-side capacitor and the low-side capacitor are configured to track and correct for mismatches between a first resistance of the first n-type field-effect transistor and a second resistance of the second n-type field-effect transistor.

    Abstract: A system may include a digital modulator configured to modulate an input signal received at an input of the digital modulator to generate a modulated input signal at an output of the digital modulator, a digital gain element having a digital gain and coupled to the digital modulator, an open-loop Class-D amplifier coupled to an output of the digital modulator and configured to amplify the modulated input signal, wherein the open-loop Class-D amplifier is powered from a variable power supply having a variable supply voltage which is variable in response to one or more characteristics of the input signal, and a control circuit configured to control the digital gain to approximately cancel changes in an analog gain of the open-loop Class-D amplifier due to variation in the variable supply voltage in response to the one or more characteristics of the input signal.
