A differential amplifier circuit is provided. The circuit includes a PWM modulator for generating a PWM signal representative of a difference between the first and the second staircase-like reference signals and the digital input signal, a DM-IDAC for receiving the PWM signal and providing a first and second differential mode current, a CM-IDAC for receiving the PWM signal and providing a common mode current, first and second loop integrators, and first and second comparators; each loop integrator comprising virtual ground node terminal for receiving the differential mode current, the common mode current, and a feedback signal from an output stage of the differential amplifier circuit via a feedback loop, and integrator output terminal for providing loop integrator output signal proportional to an integral of the signals received at the virtual ground node terminal, the comparators receiving the loop integrator output signal, and triangular reference signal.
