A delta-sigma modulator for use in power amplification of audio signals is configured by an integration circuit, a 1-bit quantizer, an output inversion inhibitor circuit, a delay circuit, and an adder. An analog signal is supplied to the integration circuit by way of the adder, wherein it is subjected to integration. An integration result is subjected to quantization by the 1-bit quantizer to produce 1-bit digital signals. The output inversion inhibitor circuit inhibits an output signal of the 1-bit quantizer from being re-inverted during a re-inversion inhibiting period corresponding to a preset number "N' (where N>=2) of clock pulses counted after the timing when the output signal of the 1-bit quantizer is inverted. The output of the output inversion inhibitor circuit is delayed by one sample and is fed back to the adder by way of the delay circuit.
