Abstract

See full text

A high-power PWM system with improved low-power performance and which includes an oscillator configured to provide a substantially periodic signal to a pulse-width modulator. The pulse-width modulator outputs a PWM signal, derived from the analog signal and the periodic signal, on the PWM output node to a high-power amplifier that can select from a number of power-supply voltages. The PWM system improves amplification accuracy at low input signal levels by selecting a reduced power-supply voltage. The pulse width of the PWM signal is increased proportional to the decrease in the power-supply voltage to maintain the gain factor of the system at low power.
