As shown in FIG. 1 (a), when the voltage applied to the loudspeaker drops from Vcc to Vcc 'due to power fluctuation, in the present invention, this is detected by the power fluctuation detecting circuit, and the pulse width t is changed to t' by the correction factor calculating section. The correction rate α is calculated to extend the correction to α. When this correction rate α is used, the area of the pulse (solid line) having the amplitude Vcc and the width t is equal to the area of the pulse (dashed line) having the amplitude Vcc ′ and the width t ′.

2. A power supply fluctuation of a switching amplifier which receives a PWM signal pulse-width modulated with amplitude information of an audio signal as an input and intermittently applies a fluctuating power supply voltage to a speaker through a switching element driven by the PWM signal. In a compensation circuit, a power supply fluctuation detection circuit for detecting a fluctuation of the power supply voltage (30)
A correction rate calculating unit (12) for calculating a correction rate for expanding and contracting the pulse width of the PWM signal in accordance with the fluctuation width of the power supply voltage; and a level detection for detecting an output level of the amplitude adjustment volume of the audio signal. A circuit (60), and a weight calculation unit (13) for calculating a weighting coefficient for weighting the correction rate according to an input signal level from an output level of the volume detected by the level detection circuit.
And a synthesizing section (14) for correcting the pulse width of the PWM signal using the correction rate and the weighting coefficient.
