Abstract
A system includes an audio amplifier, a duty cycle detector, a channel equalizer, and a sample-and-hold circuit. The audio amplifier is configured to amplify an analog audio signal to produce an amplified audio signal. The duty cycle detector is configured to generate a saturation detect signal at a first state upon detection that the amplified audio signal produced by the audio amplifier is clipped. The channel equalizer is configured to generate an initial estimate of a speaker terminal voltage. The sample-and-hold circuit is configured to sample and hold the initial estimate of the speaker terminal voltage as a final estimate of the speaker voltage when the saturation detect signal is in the first state.
