LOOP FILTER STABILIZATION FOR CLASS D AMPLIFIER

Amplifying a signal includes outputting an output signal from a Class D amplifier configured to operate as a current driver to a load, such as a loudspeaker, the output of the Class D amplifier controlled by a feedback loop, and, in the feedback loop: performing analog filtering using an active anal...

Zusammenfassung:	Amplifying a signal includes outputting an output signal from a Class D amplifier configured to operate as a current driver to a load, such as a loudspeaker, the output of the Class D amplifier controlled by a feedback loop, and, in the feedback loop: performing analog filtering using an active analog filter on an error signal that is based on the output of the Class D amplifier and a reference signal, digitizing a filtered output of the analog filter to produce a sequence of digital values, performing digital filtering on the sequence of digital values to produce a sequence of filtered digital values, and generating a pulse signal to control the output of the Class D amplifier based on the sequence of filtered digital values. The digital filter reduces a destabilizing effect of the loudspeaker's inductance. Associated circuits, systems, modules and electronic devices are disclosed.
