    Abstract: An integrated circuit for producing a small slope voltage ramp (V OUT ) is constituted by a circuit generating a periodic triangular current signal (I GM1 ), a circuit generating, at the beginning of each period of the triangular signal, a pulse (V) of a certain duration (τ) much smaller than the period (T) of the triangular signal, a loop input at a node (B) with the triangular current signal and producing on the output node the desired slow voltage ramp (V OUT ).
    The loop comprises a first hold circuit (C2, B UFFER2 ) coupled to the input node (B) by way of a first switch (SW2) controlled by the pulse (V), a transconductance operational amplifier (OTA1), whose inputs are respectively coupled to the input node (B) and to the output node (V OUT ), a second hold circuit (C1, B UFFER1 ) coupled to the output of the operational transconductance amplifier (OTA1) by way of a second switch (SW1) controlled in a complementary manner respect to the first switch (SW2), and a resistor (R) of a much smaller value than the ratio between the period (T) of the triangular signal and the capacitance of the storage capacitor (C2) of the first hold circuit, connected between the output of the second hold circuit and the input node (B).

    Abstract: The amplifier (1, 2) has an input (2a); an output (2c) supplying an output signal (Vo), and a feedback network (5) connected between the input (2a) and the output (2c), and a distortion detection circuit (1). The feedback network (5; 55) includes a first and a second feedback element (6, 7) arranged in series and forming an intermediate node (10) supplying an intermediate signal (VB) in phase with the output signal (Vo) in absence of distortion, and in phase-opposition with the output signal in presence of distortion. The distortion detection circuit (1) includes a phase-comparating circuit (12, 15) which detects the phase of the output signal (Vo) and of the intermediate signal (VB), and generates a distortion-indicative signal (VCD), when the intermediate signal (VB) is in phase opposition with respect to the output signal (Vo).

    Abstract: A method of preventing abrupt voltage changes at the outputs of a pair of amplifiers and a common mode control circuit of a pair of amplifiers that reduce EMI and increased distortions occur when the correlation between the signals that are fed to the four channels of the audio system diminishes has been found.
    This result is attained by properly generating for each amplifier a reference potential as a saturated replica of the respective differential input signal of the amplifier that saturates when the amplifier switches to a bridge configuration.
    This method is implemented in a common mode control circuit for a pair of amplifiers self-configuring in a bridge configuration for driving a first load and in a single-ended mode of operation of one of the amplifiers for driving the first load, in function of the level of a differential input signal, comprising for at least one of the pair of amplifiers a common mode feedback differential amplifier, a storage capacitor connected between any one of the two inputs of the feedback amplifier and a node at a reference potential, by providing the common mode control circuit of means for generating this reference potential.
