Jan 5, 2016 at 12:42 comment added Majenko @CharlieHanson No, the swing is 10V. At any moment in time the instantaneous voltage between the two outputs is 5V, but into an inductive load (speaker, moving coil) the displacement is double since you are inverting the polarity all the time, and first pushing the coil with +5V and then pulling the coil with -5V giving the equivalent drive displacement of 10V with a -5V offset.
Jan 5, 2016 at 12:12 comment added CharlieHanson -1. No, the swing is 5V, unless you generate 10V with a boost converter or generate a -5V rail. Fundamental flaws in your plan aside, yes it's possible to add an anti-phase pin to the mix a few edits to the Tone library.
Jan 5, 2016 at 9:20 comment added Milliways @dlu No The swing is 10V. Think about it - this is a standard technique.
Jan 5, 2016 at 8:35 comment added dlu Wouldn't you still end up with the total voltage difference across the two pins being at most 5V?
