Πηγή: ClickIcepower is plain class AD, I have just removed a 1000ASP PCB from the heatsink and checked to be sure.
The inner loop produces the phase shifted self oscillation, but there are two op-amps on the way of the pseudo "triangle wave", which is not a good thing at all because it contains frequencies that two MC33078 can't handle properly. The outer loop drives the inner loop with gentle negative feedback for further linearization.
I think they use two feedback loops (one pre-filter and other post-filter) because they feared using the carrier residual on the output directly as a "triangle wave" as done in UcD. This requires a high quality carrier residual, which implies an high quality output filter with negligible parasitics, and ICEpower output filters exhibit high parasitic inductance on the (big) capacitors, not to mention the complete absence of ground planes and the compromised layout to reach such a small size.
Then Bruno demonstrated that it was possible to use the carrier residual on the output directly as a "triangle wave", and he did it routing the carrier residual directly to the comparator without any op-amps on the way, and using a differential approach. Bruno layouts use ground planes, and the modulator is in a spatial plane perpendicular to the power plane, so they are much better.
ICEpower comparator (LM319) is not wired in differential mode like in UcD, they rely on the MC33078 to add up both carrier residuals (pseudo "triangle waves") and then the signal goes to both sections of the LM319, one wired as inverting and the other as non inverting, to generate complimentary logic outputs and drive the two IR2010. This is not very clever.
I derived my own self oscillating modulator scheme from these two, which also uses two feedback loops, but both are post-filter...
My output filter has high C, low L and negligible series inductance on the capacitor. My carrier residual is sensed fully differential and goes to a TL3016 high quality comparator with only passives on its way. Only audio frequencies go through op-amps in my modulator, and all their inputs (from "outer world") have capacitors to ground, so RF rejection is very high. I use two poles, one passive and one active. ICEpower also seems to use two poles.
The resulting amplifier was just presented at NAMM last weekend... It's about to be released.
In general, you can safely and completely forget about ICEpower (and all their marketing hype) if you understand UcD, because UcD is ICEpower and a lot more, but made simpler(although it's useful to know the weaknesses of ICEpower to avoid repeating them)
EDIT: Another major difference from ICEpower to UcD is that ICEpower modulator does not damp output filter properly and relies on a 5 ohm resistor mounted on the heatsink for some damping (which imposes limitations on sustained trebble output), while UcD (and my approach) result in load-independent frequency response.

Ωραίος.εδω υπαρχει ενα τεστ με διαφορους, ειναι pdf στα ιταλικα ...
90dB SPL (2.83V/1m), δεςΣούπερ ουάου! Τί ευαισθησία έχει το Grand Piano Domus;
Πραγματι εκει πηγε κατευθειαν το ματι μου.Ωραίος.
Ακόμα κι αν δεν ξέρετε ιταλικά, αξίζει να προσέξετε τη σελίδα με τις μετρήσεις (σελ. 6 του PDF) και πώς αυτές αλλάζουν με το φορτίο-ηχείο που έχουμε βάλει πάνω στον ενισχυτή.
Φαίνεται πολύ καθαρά ένα από τα βασικότερα πλεονεκτήματα των UcD (βλ. πάνω δεξιά κουτάκι) έναντι των άλλων Class D (και το οποίο έχουμε επισημάνει από την αρχή του thread - βλ. post #11, τα αντίστοιχα links που μπήκαν μετά αλλά και τελευταία η αναφορά της Eva).
Δυστυχώς στα εμπορικά προϊόντα είσαι στα χέρια του κατασκευαστή για το τι θα κάνει με το φίλτρο εξόδου. Πέρα από τα Hypex (που δεν καταλαβαίνουν από αυτά) τα υπόλοιπα διακοπτικά αλλάζουν πολύ από περίπτωση σε περίπτωση.Γιατι ενω υπαρχουν τεραστιες διαλυμανσεις του φορτιου σε ολο το φασμα, η αποκριση αλλαζει δραματικα μονο στο πανω ακρο του?
