Abstract :
A 300 mW single-chip CMOS class-D audio power amplifier employing new control methods is proposed. A high frequency modulator that is suitable for portable applications is adopted in this power amplifier. Zero voltage switching (ZVS) and adaptive power control (APC) are used to minimize the power loss. The new class-D amplifier chip is implemented using a standard 0.35 mu CMOS process, and the test results are shown
