The output FETs drive the amplifier outputs in an H-Bridge configuration. These transistors are either fully off or fully on. The result is a square-wave output signal with a duty cycle that is proportional to the amplitude of the audio signal. The amplifier outputs require a reconstruction filter that comprises a series inductor and a capacitor to ground on each output, generally called an LC filter. The LC filter attenuates the PWM frequency and reduces electromagnetic emissions, allowing the reconstructed audio signal to pass to the speakers. refer to the Class-D LC Filter Design Application Report, (SLAA701A) for a detailed description of proper component description and design of the LC filter based upon the specified load and frequency response. The recommended low-pass cutoff frequency of the LC filter is dependent on the selected switching frequency. The low-pass cutoff frequency can be as high as 100 kHz for a PWM frequency of 2.1 MHz. At a PWM frequency of 384 kHz the low-pass cutoff frequency should be less than 40 kHz. Certain specifications must be understood for a proper inductor. The inductance value is given at zero current, but the device has current. Use the inductance versus current curve for the inductor to make sure the inductance does not drop below 1 µH (for f_SW = 2.1 MHz) at the maximum current provided by the system design. The DCR of the inductor directly affects the output power of the system design. The lower the DCR, the more power is provided to the speakers. The typical inductor DCR for a 4 Ω system is 40 to 50 mΩ and for a 2 Ω system is 20 to 25 mΩ.
