The device is often used with a low-pass filter, which is used to filter out the carrier frequency of the PWM modulated output. This filter is frequently referred to as the L-C Filter, due to the presence of an inductive element L and a capacitive element C to make up the 2-pole filter.
The L-C filter removes the carrier frequency, reducing electromagnetic emissions and smoothing the current waveform which is drawn from the power supply. The presence and size of the L-C filter is determined by several system level constraints. In some low-power use cases that have no other circuits which are sensitive to EMI, a simple ferrite bead or a ferrite bead plus a capacitor can replace the tradition large inductor and capacitor that are commonly used. In other high-power applications, large toroid inductors are required for maximum power and film capacitors can be used due to audio characteristics. Refer to the application report Class-D LC Filter Design (SLOA119) for a detailed description on the proper component selection and design of an L-C filter based upon the desired load and response.
