Abstract
A system may include a charge pump configured to transfer electrical energy from a source of electrical energy coupled to an input of the charge pump to an energy storage device coupled to an output of the charge pump and configured to store the electrical energy transferred from the source of electrical energy, a power converter configured to transfer electrical energy from the energy storage device to an output of the power converter, wherein the power converter comprises a first plurality of switches and a power inductor arranged such that one switch of the first plurality of switches is coupled between the power inductor and the output of the charge pump, an output stage configured to transfer electrical energy between the output of the power converter to a load coupled to an output of the output stage, the output stage comprising a second plurality of switches, and a controller configured to generate an output voltage at the output of the output stage as an amplified version of an input signal.
