Class B amplifiers are prone to crossover distortion, which occurs in the output stage in which conduction transfers from one transistor to the other. To prevent crossover distortion, a bias current ...

If you’ve ever glanced at the specifications sheet for an amplifier, one of the things you may have noticed is the amplifier’s class. Typically denoted by a letter or two, the most common amplifier ...

The previous two chapters considered closely the distortion produced by amplifier output stages: a basically conventional but well designed Class-B amplifier with proper precautions taken against the ...
