Then there'es the problem of voltage regulation. By changing the

Do you mean active interpolation ?? ... like with maybe a linear
amplifier to fill in for the quantization noise ?
No, it is as simple as a class D driven by simple algorithms.
Presumably with a sinewave algorithm.
What he means here is an algorithm that makes the non-ideal waveform a
sinewave by filling in to make it a sine wave.
Yeah, a class D amp instead of a linear amp would be better,
especially if it was a larger amount of power needed.
If you only needed a few watts worth, a linear version might be OK.
I fail to see where the magic is.
Well.... It's certainly a different idea or philosophy, but not
really "magic". And the idea was published decades ago to create
tables of waveforms that just cancel out the first few main harmonics
(or more of course). The problem as I see it is that if you're going
to go for way more harmonic reduction, you've got to have a faster
change of pulses which eventually begin to be a high frequency.
At some point you might as well just use PWM I suppose. That is, if
you would like the waveform to LOOK like a sinewave on a scope)
