TPA005D12 Class-D EVM Performance Characteristics

3-22

Details

Figures 3–14 and 3–15 show a frequency sweep for a 1-W output. The lower
frequency distortion of the graphs is dominated by noise, while the distortion
at higher frequencies is due primarily to the fast-changing duty cycle of the
PWM output.
