Zusammenfassung:A switching amplifier includes a first portion of a power stage; a second portion of a power stage; a pulse-width modulation (PWM) control loop coupled to control inputs of the first portion of the power stage; and a linear amplifier coupled to control inputs of the second portion of the power stage. The PWM control loop controls a first switch and a second switch of the first portion of the power stage. Between current terminals of the first switch and the second switch is a first signal output of the switching amplifier. The linear amplifier controls a third switch and a fourth switch of the second portion of the power stage. Between current terminals of the third switch and the fourth switch is a second signal output of the switching amplifier.
