APPLICATION OF THE DELTA-SIGMA MODULATION IN THE SWITCHING MODE POWER AMPLIFIERS
Abstract
The possibility of signal amplification in switching mode power amplifiers using a deltasigma (ΔΣ) modulation is analyzed. A comparison of the spectral structures of square waves with
ΔΣ-modulation and pulse width modulation (PWM )is provided . The estimation of non-linear distortions of the signal in both cases is given. The use of ΔΣ-modulation in power amplifiers on gallium nitride (GaN) transistors permits to rich high efficiency and minimum distortions of the amplified signal.
