Abstract
A power amplifier is disclosed. In one embodiment, the power amplifier is a Class-D Amplifier having a differential pulse width modulator is disclosed. The differential pulse width modulator has an input for receiving an input signal, a first output for outputting a first signal and a second output for outputting a second signal. A difference between the first signal and the second signal represents the pulse modulated signal. The differential pulse width modulator further has a comparator for comparing the first and second output signals. The comparator switches both the first and second output signal from a high state to a low state, if both the first and second output signals are in a high state.
