How to build 60W Linear amplifier

The 60 Watt linear amplifier is simple all solid state circuit using
power mosfet IRF840. The IRF series of power transistors are
available in various voltage and power ratings. A single IRF840
can handle maximum power output of 125 watts. Since these
transistors are used in inverters and smps they are easily
available for around Rs: 20/-.

The IRF linear amplifier can be connected to the out put of


popular VWN-QRP to get an output of 60 Watts. The circuit
draws 700 ma at 60 Volt Vcc. Good heat sink is a must for the
power transistor.

Alignment of the circuit is very easy. Connect a dummy load to


the out put of the circuit. You can use some small bulb like 24V
6Watts as the dummy load. I have even used 230V 60Watts
bulb as dummy load with my IRF840 power amplifier working at
120Volts. Adjust the 10K preset to get around 100 ma Drain
current. I used gate voltage of 0.8V with my linear amplifier. A
heigh gate voltage can make the power transistor get distroyed
by self oscillation. So gate voltage must be below 2V and fixing at 1V will be safe.

Bifalar transformaer T1 is wound with 8 turns 26SWG on 1.4 x 1 balun core.


The coil on the drain of IRF is 3 turns 20 SWG wound on 4 number of T13.9 torroids (two torroids are stacked to form a
balun core). The RFC at the Vcc line is 20 Turns 20 SWG wound on T20 torroid.
