    Abstract: Signal processing is applied to a digital audio input signal to provide an analog audio output signal using a switching converter circuit driven by a pulse-width-modulated (PWM) signal. The analog audio output signal is sensed to provide an analog feedback signal. The signal processing that is applied includes: converting the digital audio input signal to producing an analog replica; producing an analog error signal indicative of a difference between the analog replica of the digital input signal and the analog feedback signal; converting the analog error signal to produce a digital error signal; digitally filtering the digital error signal to produce a filtered digital error signal; and generating the PWM signal from the filtered digital error signal.
