A short video showing the energy consumed during a maximum output drive condition, and also a demonstration of the pulse width modulation technique used in Class D recreating the audio signal. The amplifier is based on the ADAU1592 from Analog Devices.

  • Why the amplitude were disturbed? It should be only the phase.

  • @gigabrid I think this is more the reactive components of the loud speaker (being inductive) showing the distortion on the amplitude. Also the termination into the oscilloscope is not impedance matched - the loud speaker used is nominally 8 Ohm impedance, the scope I used had either 1MOhm or 50 Ohm termination. You are right though - it should only be a change in pulse density NOT amplitude, but I think this is merely down to real life response of the system.
