    摘要: A circuit of reducing a pop-up noise in a digital amplifier includes a switch unit and a switch signal generator. The switch unit is coupled in parallel to an output load between an output node of the digital amplifier and a reference node. The switch unit controls a current flowing through the output load by forming a conduction path between the output node and the reference node in response to a switch signal. The switch signal generator generates the switch signal in response to a switch control signal indicating a power-on or a power-off. The pop-up noise is reduced by the conduction path that is formed when the digital amplifier is powered on or off.

    摘要: A half-bridge three-level pulse width modulation (PWM) amplifier includes a prescaling unit, a PWM generator configured to convert the input signal to a three-level PWM signal having a first level, a second level and a reference level and an output stage. The prescaling unit scales an input signal according to at least one gain value to provide a scaled signal. The PWM generator varies the width of pulses having the first level and varies the width of pulses having a second level based on the scaled signal. The output stage drives an output node to a level of a first power supply voltage, a second power supply voltage or a third power supply voltage based on the three-level PWM signal. The output node is connected to a load. The magnitude of the at least one gain value compensates for variations of power supply voltages.

    摘要: An audio amplifier includes a compensation unit, an output unit and a calibration unit. The compensation unit generates a compensation signal based on a digital input signal, a digital reference code, a mode signal and a digital approximation code. The output unit generates an output signal based on the compensated input signal. The calibration unit generates the digital approximation code based on the output signal and the mode signal. The digital approximation code includes a plurality of bits that are generated sequentially.
