Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method and apparatus for high performance class D audio amplifier circuit that includes: a modulator circuit for receiving a PWM input signal and generating a control signal, a driver control circuit, a switching circuit, and a feedback circuit. The driver control circuit is adapted to generate a drive signal for the switching circuit. The driving signal provides compensation for noise and distortions in a PWM output signal at each cycle by selecting either a first pulse signal or a second pulse signal based on the information of the control signal.
