Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments include an audio amplifier system configured to provide a total harmonic distortion (THD) controlled clip detector and an automatic gain limiter (AGL) solution for a closed-loop amplifier. The audio amplifier system is capable of maintaining high power output without hard distortion (i.e., hard clipping) for providing better acoustics, while preventing damage to the system.

Claim (Index 7):
An audio amplifier system comprising:\n an attenuator;\n a closed-loop class D amplifier couple to the attenuator; \n a voltage controlled current source (VCCS) coupled to the closed-loop class D amplifier; and\n a clip detector coupled to the VCCS; \n \n wherein the clip detector comprises:\n a sense resistor coupled to a feedback resistor;\n a comparator coupled to the sense resistor and the feedback resistor; \n a voltage divider coupled to the comparator; \n a multiplexer coupled to the voltage divider; and \n \n a debouncer coupled to the comparator.
