A circuit for adaptively adjusting the drive strength of output power
transistors in a class D amplifier is provided. The circuit includes a
driver circuit and a low-voltage detect circuit. The low-voltage detect
circuit is arranged to assert a low-voltage detect signal if a low supply
voltage condition is detected. The driver circuit is arranged to increase
the drive strength if the low-voltage detect signal is asserted. The
driver circuit includes a first driver and a second driver. The second
driver is enabled if the low-voltage detect signal is asserted, and
disabled if the low-voltage detect signal is unasserted.
