APPLICATION NOTE
Almost all switching amplifiers operate by generating a
high frequency square wave of variable duty cycle. This
square wave can be generated much more efficiently than
an analog waveform. By varying the duty cycle from 0 to
100%, a net dc component is created that ranges between
the negative and positive supply voltages. A low pass filter
delivers this dc component to the speaker. The square wave
must be generated at a frequency well above the range of
hearing in order to be able to cover the full audio spectrum
from dc to 20 kHz. Figure 1 shows a square wave
generating a sine wave of one–ninth its frequency as its
duty cycle is varied.

Figure 1. Switching Amplifier Basic Waveforms
The concept of switching amplifiers has been around for
about 50 years but they were impractical before the advent
of complementary TMOS power MOSFETs. Vacuum tubes
were fast enough but they were rather poor switches. A
totem pole circuit with supply voltages of ±250 volts would
drop about 50 volts when switching a current of 200
milliamps. The efficiency of a tube switching amp could
therefore not exceed 80%. The transformer needed to
match the high plate impedance to the low impedance
speaker filter was impractical as well.
This document may contain references to devices which are no
longer offered. Please contact your ON Semiconductor represen-
tative for information on possible replacement devices.
With the introduction of complementary bipolar power
transistors in the late 1960s, switching amplifiers became
theoretically practical. At low frequencies, bipolar transistors
have switching efficiencies of 99% and will directly drive
a low impedance speaker filter. The requirement for
switching frequencies above 100 kHz resulted in excessive
losses however. Bipolar drive circuitry was also complex
because of its large base current requirement.
With the advent of complementary (voltage/current
ratings) TMOS power MOSFETs, gate drive circuitry has
been simplified. These MOS devices are very efficient as
switches and they can operate at higher frequencies.
A block diagram of the amplifier is shown in Figure 2.
An output switch connects either +44 or –44 volts to the
input of the low pass filter. This switch operates at a carrier
frequency of 120 kHz. Its duty cycle can vary from 5% to
95% which allows the speaker voltage to reach 90% of
either the positive or negative supplies. The filter has a
response in the audio frequency range that is as flat as
possible, with high attenuation of the carrier frequency and
its harmonics. A 0.05 ohm current sense resistor (R27) is
used in the ground return of the filter and speaker to provide
short circuit protection.
The negative feedback loop is closed before the filter to
prevent instabilities. Feedback cannot be taken from the
speaker because of the phase shift of the output filter, which
varies from 0° at dc to nearly 360° at 120 kHz. Since the
filter is linear, feedback may be taken from the filter input,
which has no phase shift. Unfortunately, this point is a high
frequency square wave which must be integrated to
determine its average voltage. The input is mixed with the
square wave output by resistors R4 and R5 shown in Figure
2. The resultant signal is integrated, which accurately
simulates the effect of the output filter. The output of the
integrator will be zero only if the filter input is an accurate
inverted reproduction of the amplifier input. If the output
is higher or lower than desired, the integrator will generate
a negative or positive error voltage. This error voltage is
applied to the input of the switch controller, which makes
the required correction. The integrator introduces a 90°
phase shift at high frequencies which leaves a phase margin
of nearly 90°.

Figure 2. Block Diagram of Class D Amplifier
The switch controller has three main functions. First, it
insures that the output duty cycle is never less than 5% or
greater than 95%. This is made necessary by the use of ac
coupling for the drive. Second, it controls the output duty
cycle in response to the error voltage input. This duty cycle
is a linear function of the error voltage input. Third, it
provides short circuit protection to the amplifier in
response to the current sense input. If overcurrent is
detected, the error voltage input will be overridden and the
amplifier output voltage reduced as necessary to bring the
current back within limits.
A class B analog amplifier has a theoretical efficiency of
78.5% when producing a sine wave at the point of clipping.
A switching amplifier, or so called class D amplifier, must do
much better to justify its extra complexity. The switching
amplifier described in this paper achieves an efficiency of
92% at its rated power of 72 watts. Its efficiency peaks at
95% for 30 watts output and falls to 50% for 1.5 watts
output. These efficiencies result from the good performance
of TMOS power MOSFETs at high switching frequencies
and the simplicity of complementary drive circuitry.
Above the 100 watt level, a switching amplifier costs less
than a conventional amplifier although it is slightly more
complex. The heatsink size is about one–tenth and the
weight is about one–fourth that of a class B amplifier.

Figure 3. 20 kHz Butterworth Filter Frequency
Response
A switching amplifier must switch at a frequency well
above the highest frequency to be reproduced. A low pass
filter must follow the switching stage to eliminate the high
frequency square waves and pass the audio to the speaker.
High switching frequencies can simplify filter design, but
cause excessive losses in the switching devices. Low
switching frequencies limit the upper frequency response
of the amplifier and complicate filter design. The amplifier
described in this paper operates at a switching frequency of
120 kHz. Its response extends down to dc, with an upper
–3 dB point of 20 kHz.
The filter chosen here is a 4 pole Butterworth Low Pass
which is maximally flat in the passband. It is designed to
be driven by a voltage source and loaded into 8 ohms. This
type of filter has a transfer function of

ǒ f Ǔ8
fc
where f is the frequency of interest and fc is the cutoff
frequency. At the 120 kHz switching frequency, this filter
has a voltage attenuation of 62 dB. With a ±44 volt square
wave into the filter at 120 kHz, the maximum residue is a
sine wave of about 30 millivolts rms. The filter is only 0.1 dB
down at 12.5 kHz and 1 dB down at 17 kHz as shown in
Figure 3. The –3 dB point is 20 kHz.
The frequency response of the filter will be flat only if it
is properly loaded into 8 ohms. A 16 ohm speaker load will
cause high frequency peaking and a 4 ohm speaker will
cause high frequency loss. The output impedance of the
filter changes across the band as shown in Figure 4. It
exhibits a parallel resonance at 11.4 kHz and 35.2 kHz, and
a series resonance at 20 kHz. In practice, these resonances
cause no difficulty with typical speakers and crossover
networks.
This amplifier and a high quality conventional amplifier
were both fed pink noise while driving full range speakers.
A broad band audio spectrum analyzer with a calibrated
microphone was used to measure sound pressure level. The
difference in sound pressure level between the two, if any,
was well under 1 dB from 60 Hz to 16 kHz.

Figure 4. Four Pole Butterworth Filter
Output Impedance
60
The amplifier output impedance at dc is about 4
milliohms and gradually becomes inductive. At 100 Hz, its
output impedance is 0.1 ohm giving a damping factor of 80.
Damping factor is the ratio of load impedance to amplifier
output impedance.
The complementary power MOSFET output stage of the
amplifier is shown in Figure 5. It generates a ±44 volt
square wave whose duty cycle can vary from 5% to 95%.
This variable duty cycle square wave is fed to the output
filter where the low frequency component is passed on to
the 8 ohm speaker. This filter allows frequencies under
20 kHz to pass with negligible loss, but greatly attenuates
the switching frequency. Since both sources are connected
to a supply rail, a drive of 10 volts peak to peak on each gate
insures full turn on. A buffer amp using ±5 volts supplies
provides this drive.
The 4.7 ohm resistors, R17 and R18, in each gate lead
prevents high frequency oscillation during switching. The 12
volt Zeners, CR3 and CR4, serve both as conventional
diode clamps and provide static discharge protection. They
act as dc restorers, and are made necessary by the ac
coupling. The 10 k resistors, R15 and R16, provide a slight
discharge path to keep conduction pulses in the clamp
diodes. They also discharge the gates in about 1
millisecond if the drive signal is lost. About 9 volts of
turn–on bias is applied to each gate. Tight coupling
between the gates prevents simultaneous turn–on of both
devices.
The output stage inverts the drive signal and generates
rise and fall times of about 30 nanoseconds. It is designed
to put out a maximum current of ±5 amps down to a
frequency of 0.1 Hertz. Below that frequency, maximum
current may need to be derated to prevent alternate
overheating of each output device. Excessive heatsink
temperature increases the ON resistance and the storage
time of the source drain diode. The resultant increase in
losses can lead to thermal runaway.
The drive waveform duty cycle must be a linear function
of the control voltage. The Duty Cycle Controller is shown
in Figure 6. A square wave of ±5 volts at 120 kHz is coupled
through C1 and R1 to integrator U1B. C1 blocks dc and R1
is the integrator resistor. C2 is the integrator capacitor
which generates a ±2 volt triangle on the output of U1B. R2
provides a small amount of dc leakage to insure that the
output has no significant dc component. R3 couples the
triangle to the noninverting input of comparator U1D. It
improves the waveform by isolating the input capacitance
of the comparator from the integrator. The dc offset on the
triangle is equal to the offset of U1B and its linearity is
better than 1%.
Input audio is applied to the inverting input of U2C
through R4. The output square wave of the power amp is
applied through R5 to the same summing point. U2C
functions as an integrator with C3 as the integrator
capacitor. Since R5 is 20 times R4, an inverting voltage
gain of 20 must result if the input of U2C is to be at ground.
The output of U2C serves as the error voltage and is fed to
the inverting input of U1D through R6 and R7. C4
eliminates short spikes on the error buss. Current limiting
circuitry is connected to the junction of R6 and R7. When
current drawn from the amplifier tries to exceed safe limits,
the error voltage is overridden and overcurrent is prevented.
