Working of class D amplifier
The typical class d amplifier consists of a sawtooth waveform generator circuit. comparator, switching circuit, and a low-pass filter section. The sawtooth waveform generator will produce a high-frequency sawtooth waveform for sampling the input audio signals.
The comparator’s job is to mix the input signals with the sawtooth waveform. The switching circuit is doing its job of providing the current and voltage gain which is essential for the amplifier circuit. Low pass filter this circuit will filter out the unwanted signals from the switching circuit.
