    • An integrated circuit may have two signal paths: an open-loop modulator (which may comprise a digital-input Class-D amplifier) and a closed-loop modulator (which may comprise an analog-input Class-D amplifier). A control subsystem may be capable of selecting either of the open-loop modulator or the closed-loop modulator as a selected path based on one or more characteristics (e.g., signal magnitude) of an input audio signal. For example, for higher-magnitude signals, the closed-loop modulator may be selected while the open-loop modulator may be selected for lower-magnitude signals. In some instances, when the open-loop modulator is selected as the selected path, the closed-loop modulator may power off, which may reduce power consumption. In addition, one or more techniques may be applied to reduce or eliminate user-perceptible audio artifacts caused by switching between the open-loop modulator and the closed-loop modulator, and vice versa.
    • 集成电路可以具有两个信号路径:开环调制器(其可以包括数字输入D类放大器)和闭环调制器(其可以包括模拟输入D类放大器)。 控制子系统可以基于输入音频信号的一个或多个特性(例如,信号幅度)来选择开环调制器或闭环调制器中的任一个作为选择的路径。 例如,对于较高幅度的信号,可以选择闭环调制器,同时为低电平信号选择开环调制器。 在一些情况下,当选择开环调制器作为选择的路径时,闭环调制器可以断电,这可能降低功耗。 此外,可以应用一种或多种技术来减少或消除由开环调制器和闭环调制器之间的切换引起的用户可感知的音频伪像,反之亦然。
