Abstract
A pulse width modulator (PWM) circuit is provided. The PWM circuit includes a selective synchronization circuit configured to receive vector signals, and selectively synchronize the vector signals. The synchronized vector signals are provided to a tap selection circuit configured to output tap selection signals that are logically combined by a transition generating circuit to produce a pulse width modulated signal based on logically detected transitions in the tap selection signals.
