The UcD?-clone class D amplifier
This page is under construction! [As all the rest of Wiki]
The purpose with this page is to document a class D amplifier design, which has been developed jointly by members on diyaudio.com. It is strongly influenced (more or less a copy of) a design which has been patented by Bruno Putzeys at Philips. The original patent can be found at

This is nothing to be alarmed about though unless you plan on selling it (or designs derived from it) for profit on the open market. Then you may need to make a license agreement with the patent holder.
The development history is available in the thread
