Abstract
Class D amplifier circuitry comprising: modulator circuitry; and output stage circuitry, wherein the modulator circuitry is configured to: receive an input signal and first and second carrier signals, wherein the second carrier signal is offset in amplitude with respect to the first carrier signal; generate first and second modulated output signals, each of the first and second modulated output signals being based on the input signal and the first and second carrier signals; and generate a plurality of control signals for the output stage circuitry per signal period of the modulated output signals, wherein the plurality of control signals are based on the first and second modulated output signals, and wherein at least one of the plurality of control signals per signal period comprises a signal level transition.
