A class-D amplifier includes a loop filter, a pulse-width modulation (PWM) circuit, an output circuit, and a common-mode control circuit. The loop filter receives an input signal of the class-D amplifier to generate a filtered signal. The PWM circuit converts a non-PWM signal into a PWM signal, wherein the non-PWM signal is derived from at least the filtered signal. The output circuit generates an output signal of the class-D amplifier according to the PWM signal. The common-mode control circuit monitors a common-mode level of the output signal to generate a common-mode control signal for PWM common-mode control.

A system and method for adjusting a common mode output voltage in an instrumentation amplifier is provided. In one aspect, the common mode output voltage is increased or decreased with respect to the common mode input voltage to enable high amplification of the signal input to the instrumentation amplifier. Moreover, the common mode output voltage can be driven to (or approximately to) a target voltage value such as, but not limited to, half the supply, even if the common mode input voltage is close to supply or ground rail voltage. Thus, a high amplification of the differential input voltage can be obtained and utilized for various applications requiring rail to rail input.
