研究目的
To propose a fully integrated CMOS Class D amplifier (CDA) that achieves high audio fidelity, high noise immunity, and high power efficiency without resorting to high switching frequency or complex multiple feedback loops.
研究成果
The prototype CDA achieves a THD + N of 0.0027%, a power efficiency of 94%, and a PSRR of 101 dB at 217 Hz and 90 dB at 1 kHz, with a versatile supply voltage operating range from 1.2 V to 3.6 V. It features the highest PSRR and power efficiency among benchmarked state-of-the-art designs.
研究不足
The prototype CDA is integrated with other unrelated designs on a large die for cost reasons, which may not be optimal for all applications. The switching frequency, while varying, is relatively low, which may limit some high-frequency applications.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The proposed CDA design includes a novel input-modulated carrier generator and a phase-error-free PWM modulator to allow high loop-gain for high PSRR without compromising linearity or dynamic range.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The prototype CDA is fabricated using a commercial 65 nm CMOS process and tested with an 8 ? load.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Rohde & Schwarz UPV Audio analyzer for measurements, power supply for PSRR and PS-IMD measurements.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Measurements include THD + N, PSRR, power efficiency, and output signal spectrum under different supply voltages and loads.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Performance benchmarking against state-of-the-art CDAs based on measured parameters.
