Abstract: In a Class-D amplifier, first/second ratios and first/second RC time constants are sequentially matched by trimming. An integrator is coupled to differential first/second paths. The first/second ratios are of a feedback resistor to an input resistor in the first/second paths. R's of the first/second RC time constants are the resistors of the first/second matched ratios. C's of the first/second RC time constants are integrating capacitors in the first/second path. For each of multiple power rails, a ramp amplitude is determined based on a sensed voltage. Concurrently, the driver stage is switched from first to second power rails and quantizer switched from first to second ramp amplitudes to achieve constant combined quantizer/driver stage gain. Based on a sensed load current, an IR drop is determined for a respective output impedance of the driver stage and added to a loop filter output to compensate for the respective output impedance.
