A Low-EMI, High-DR Class-D Audio Amplifier With Double-Sided Voltage-Boosting Modulation

A Low-EMI, High-DR Class-D Audio Amplifier With Double-Sided Voltage-Boosting Modulation 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a digital-input class-D audio amplifier (CDA) that employs a double-sided voltage-boosting (DSVB) modulation scheme, integrating a capacitively coupled chopper amplifier (CCCA) with a single-inductor buck–boost power stage. The CCCA achieves a high dynamic range (DR) due to its very low noise floor and is implemented with …

A 10 to 40 GHz Reflection-Mode N-Path Filter

A 10 to 40 GHz Reflection-Mode N-Path Filter 150 150

Abstract:

A bandpass reflection-mode N-path filter (RMNF) with 2-GHz bandwidth and 10 to 40 GHz center-frequency tuning is presented. The design includes a broadband hybrid coupler, N-path reflectors, comprising four-phase passive mixers terminated with third-order in-phase and quadrature-phase active baseband loads, and a broadband clock-generation network. The reflectors realize an in-band open circuit …
