ELECTRONIC APPARATUS COMPRISING A SWITCHING-TYPE OUTPUT STAGE, CORRESPONDING CIRCUIT ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD

An embodiment apparatus comprises a switching-type output power stage, a modulator circuit configured for carrying out a pulse-width modulation and converting an electrical input signal into an input signal pulsed between two electrical levels, having a mean value proportional to the amplitude of the input signal, and a circuit arrangement for controlling saturation of an output signal supplied by the switching-type output power stage. The circuit arrangement comprises a pulse-remodulator circuit, between the output of the modulator circuit and the input of the switching-type output power stage, that is configured for supplying, as a driving signal to the switching-type output power stage, a respective modulated signal pulsed between two electrical levels, measuring a pulse width as pulse time interval elapsing between two consecutive pulsed-signal edges of the pulsed input signal, and, if the measurement indicates that the latter is below a given minimum value, remodulating the pulsed input signal.
