Abstract
Various implementations include systems for amplifying input signals. In particular implementations, a system includes a common mode voltage controller configured to receive an input signal and output a pair of adjusted signals; a modulator that generates a pair of pulse width modulation (PWM) signals in response to the adjusted signals; and a self-boosting push pull amplifier configured to receive the PWM signals and generate an amplified output, wherein the self-boosting push pull amplifier is configured to generate a differential mode voltage representative of an amplified version of the input signal, wherein the adjusted audio signals generated by the common mode voltage controller include a dynamically adjusted gain and duty cycle offset that causes the self-boosting push pull amplifier to operate with a reduced common mode voltage.
