A switching power amplifier includes logic circuitry that generates first and second components of a differential signal, based on received amplitude code and a delayed version of the same. The amplitude code includes a sign and a magnitude. When the sign is positive, a first logic path is configured to generate the first component based on the received amplitude code and the second logic path is configured to generate the second component based on the delayed amplitude code. When the sign is negative, the first logic path is configured to generate the first component based on the delayed amplitude code and the second logic path is configured to generate the second component based on the received amplitude code. The switching power amplifier further includes a differential-to-single ended conversion circuit configured to generate a single-ended signal based on the differential signal.
