Abstract

A class D amplifier circuit receives an analog audio signal with a first reference voltage as its center level, and outputs an output pulse signal having a duty cycle that corresponds to the analog audio signal. A bias circuit generates a second reference voltage having a voltage level obtained as a division of the first reference voltage and the power supply voltage. A periodic voltage generating circuit of the class D amplifier circuit generates a periodic voltage having a triangle waveform or otherwise a sawtooth waveform having an amplitude that corresponds to the second reference voltage.
