Abstract
A bridged amplifier output stage capable of sharing a common conductor between independent loads. Multi-Channel pulse width modulated output signals are time division multiplexed to reduce the number of required conductors. The output stages are driven such that the non-common conductor time multiplexed off-channel(s) receives a copy of the shared common signal. The differential signal on the off-channel(s) is thereby cancelled even though the common conductor is carrying a signal for use by the on-channel.
