Abstract
A voltage-switched class-S amplifier circuit includes an output stage configured to receive at least one control signal and operative to generate an output signal as a function of the at least one control signal. The amplifier circuit further includes a driver circuit coupled with the output stage. The driver circuit is configured to receive an input bit stream signal and is operative to generate the control signal as a function of the input bit stream signal in such a manner that a common mode component is eliminated from the control signal.
