Abstract
An audio power amplifier includes a differential amplifier circuit that serves as an input circuit. The differential amplifier circuit includes a signal GND (SG) terminal that receives a SG voltage, and an audio signal input terminal that receives an audio signal. A SG voltage generation circuit is provided to output the SG voltage. The SG voltage generation circuit includes a voltage follower amplifier that outputs a current, a reference voltage source that is input to the voltage follower amplifier, and a current control circuit that controls the current output from the voltage follower amplifier. The SG voltage rises in a prescribed manner while suppressing a pop sound during its transition.
