A digital .DELTA..SIGMA. modulated signal produced by a quantizer (1c) in
a .DELTA..SIGMA. modulation processing unit (1) is put in to a feedback
loop before inputted to a power switch (2) and converted into an analog
signal by a D/A converter (1d). This analog signal is fed back to the
input stage (a differentiator (1a)) of the .DELTA..SIGMA. processing unit
(1) to prevent the switching distortion of the power switch (2) itself
from being introduced into the feedback loop thereby to suppress the
influence of the switching distortion.
