Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to apparatus and methods for dynamically adjusting the common-mode input signal of a power amplifier, such as a class-D power amplifier. One example power amplifier circuit generally includes a first amplifier having a signal input and a power input; and a common-mode adjustment circuit having a first input coupled to the power input of the first amplifier, having an output coupled to the signal input of the first amplifier, and being configured to generate a common-mode signal to apply to the signal input of the first amplifier, based on a power supply voltage on the power input of the first amplifier.
