Arrangement for Pulse-Width Modulating an Input Signal

摘要

An arrangement for pulse-width modulating an analog or digital input signal is provided. The non-linear distortion generated in the pulse-width modulator is precompensated by applying a signal with reversed error to the pulse-width modulator. The signal with reversed error is generated by a further pulse-width modulator that receives the input signal and whose output signal is subtracted from twice the input signal. The arrangement may e.g. be used to drive class D audio amplifiers.
