ABSTRACT:
A PWM signal drives a pair of output transistors connected in series between a supply line and ground so that a push-pull current is output toward a speaker via a coil from a point connecting both output transistors. A current limiting resistor has one end connected to the supply line and between the other end and ground is provided a control transistor. Furthermore, a comparator compares the supply line voltage and a reference voltage and turns on the control transistor when the supply line voltage is higher than the reference voltage in the comparison result thereof.
