Frequency Response of Amplifiers

Frequency Response of Amplifiers

Introduction As such for any electronic circuit, the behavior of amplifiers is affected by the frequency of the signal on their input terminal. This characteristic is known as the frequency response. Frequency response is one of the most important property of amplifiers. In the...

Input and Output Impedances of Amplifiers

Input and Output Impedances of Amplifiers

Introduction In a very simplified point of view, an amplifier consists of a "box" that realizes an amplification function between an input signal and an output signal. The way that the input enters the system and the output leaves it is very important and affects the general behavior of...

Class C Amplifiers

Class C Amplifiers

Introduction Despite their differences, we have seen in the previous tutorials about class A, class B and class AB amplifiers, that these three classes are linear or partially linear since they reproduce the shape of the signal during the amplification process. This is due to the fact...

Class AB Amplifiers

Class AB Amplifiers

Introduction Class A amplifiers offer a very good linearity of the output, meaning that the signal is faithfully reproduced, however their efficiency is very low, around 20-30 % in most of the cases. On the other hand, class B amplifiers present a very high efficiency up to 78.5 % but...

Class B Amplifiers

Class B Amplifiers

Introduction We have seen during the previous tutorial that Class A amplifiers are characterized by a conduction angle of 360° and a theoretical maximum efficiency of 50 %. In this new tutorial, we will present in detail another class of amplifiers known as Class B that have been...
