The distortion performance of an amplifier is determined not only by open loop linearity, but also the negative feedback factor applied when the loop is closed. In most practical circumstances ...

Class-D audio amplifiers are power efficient, but do not beat, or even match, well-designed Class-AB and Class-A amplifiers on many other specs. This said, Delft University of Technology, working with ...

From earlier work in this series, distortion from the small-signal stages may be kept to levels that will prove negligible compared with distortion from a closed-loop output stage. Similarly, future ...

If you have read an amplifier review or looked at the specifications for an amp, the chances are that you have come across a term such as 'Class A/B'. In fact, this is just one of a number of ...

“Class” is in session. This discussion of electronic amplifier circuits offers an overview of the characteristics that define commonly used class designations ...
