THE BALANCED CURRENT AMPLIFIER A NEW PARADIGM FOR THE 21ST CENTURY In 1931 Loy Barton, a research worker employed by David Sarnoff , unearthed the paradigm that has dominated all electronic power amplifiers used for audio reproduction and industrial power to this present day. Many incremental additions have embellished Loy’s original invention since its inception. The embellishments have many n...

Class D power amplifiers, one of the most critical devices for application in sound systems, face severe challenges due to increasing requirement smartphones, digital television, sound, and other terminals. The audio amplifier has developed from a transistor field-effect tube amplifier, amplifiers have made significant progress circuit technology, components, ideological understanding. stumblin...

Class D amplifiers are typically very efficient, making them ideal candidates for portable applications that require long battery life and low thermal dissipation. However, electromagnetic interference (EMI) is an issue that commonly accompanies the Class D switching topology. Activeemissions limiting reduces radiated emissions and enables "filterless" operation, allowing designers to create sm...

Currently the multiple wireless data transmission technologies have been commercially implemented, such as long-term evolution (LTE), Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. There is a keen requirement to combine the power amplifiers for those technologies into a single one which can amplifies concurrent multi-band signals. On the physically layer, there are two popular architectures, namely parallel single-band...

Piezoelectric actuators are widely used in smart materials for vibration and noise control, precision actuators, etc. [1]. These actuators are largely capacitive and the reactive power applied on them can go to several tens of Watts. High-voltage, high-power class-D amplifiers [2-5] are ideal drivers for such loads, because of their high power efficiency. Preferably, efficiency should be high b...
