A PWM modulator has a quantizer that generates a PWM output signal to speaker driver. When a first voltage swing range is supplied to the speaker driver, the quantizer analog gain is controlled to be a first gain value. When a second PWM drive voltage swing range is supplied to the speaker driver, the analog gain is controlled to be a second gain value. The first and second gain values of the analog gain of the quantizer cause the combined gain of the quantizer and driver to be approximately equal in the two modes. The quantizer has at least two gain-affecting measurable non-ideal characteristics. The quantizer is adjustable using measured first and second values to correct for first and second of the at least two non-ideal characteristics. The gain of the quantizer is calibratable while the quantizer is adjusted using the measured first and second measured values.

An apparatus in a PWM modulator includes a triangular wave generator that generates a triangular wave and a comparator that is responsive to a signal input to generate a signal output. An output of the PWM modulator is responsive to the comparator signal output. A polarity inversion circuit, coupled between the triangular wave generator and the comparator, is configured in one of the following ways: to provide the triangular wave to the comparator when the triangular wave has a first slope polarity and to provide a polarity-inverted version of the triangular wave to the comparator when the triangular wave has a second slope polarity opposite the first slope polarity; and to provide the signal input to the comparator when the triangular wave has the first slope polarity and to provide a polarity-inverted version of the signal input to the comparator when the triangular wave has the second slope polarity.

An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) includes receiving an analog input voltage signal, converting the analog input voltage signal to a first digital value and an analog residue signal, converting the analog residue signal to a time value representing the analog residue signal, and converting the time value to a second digital value. The first digital value and the second digital value are combined into a digital output signal representing the analog input voltage signal.
