Amplificador classe d para subwoofer

This paper proposal presents a high power Class-D audio amplifier for subwoofer applications with efficiency above 90%. A regulated dc voltage supply is not needed as well as a low pass output filter overcoming the disadvantages of ordinary Class-D audio amplifiers structures. A 1 kW laboratory prototype was implemented and it was found that efficiency above 90 % and THD below 1 % could be achieved. Detailed design guide lines, principle of operation analysis and control strategy are also included in this paper proposal.
