A fast switching charge dump assisted class-D audio amplifier is presented in this paper. To achieve high efficiency and high linearity, the Class-K* audio amplifier consists of the class D amplifier with high efficiency and the proposed charge dump amplifier with high linearity. The charge pump amplifier works at faster switching frequency than class D amplifier so as to compensate the distortion caused by switching of the class-D amplifier. The class-K* audio amplifier implemented in 0.35mum CMOS process shows -71.8 dB THD+N at 1 KHz and a maximum efficiency of 81% at an output power of 257 mW for 4.1Omega load.
