Analog Electronics II: Lab

Experiment No.
Objective: To study the performance of Power amplifier circuits. Aim: To study class B amplifier. Apparatus Required: Sr. No 1 2 3 4 5 6 Theory: The final stage in any analog system is known as output stage. This output stage usually consists of a power amplifier or a driver to deliver a high power output signal to the load without loss of gain. Since the power amplifiers delivers a relatively high power signal they are known as large-signal amplifiers. Powerconversion efficiency of the power amplifier is the main requirement. Class B Amplifier: Class B Amplifier has major disadvantages of very audible distortion with small signal. This distortion can be so hard that it is objectionable even with large Signal. This distortion is called as cross over distortion, because it occurs at point when output stage crosses sourcing and sinking current. Class B amplifier consists of two transistors, AC signal drive one transistor ON, while other OFF.
