The almost universal choice in semiconductor power amplifiers is for a unity gain output stage, and specifically a voltage follower. Output stages with gain are not unknown, 1 but they are not common.

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 ...

This “Product How-To” article focuses how to use a certain product in an embedded system and is written by a company representative. Audio amplifier products are becoming more and more advanced in ...

The switching amplifier, or class D amplifier, has risen quickly to prominence in consumer audio applications, from MP3 devices including mobile phone handsets to games consoles, LCD-TVs, and home ...

When used with other blocks and modules, a new approach to modeling operational-amplifier output impedance behavior can provide a more realistic overall behavioral model. Simulating the behavior of a ...

STMicroelectronics is using Class-G analogue audio technology to create 117dB S/N ratio, >117dB dynamic range (A-weighted), automotive amplifier. Class-G amplifiers are similar to traditional Class-AB ...

The D’Agostino New-Generation Momentum Z Monoblock Amplifier is priced a $125,000 USD and available through Authorized Dealers Internationally, Canada, Mexico, and the US.

If these signals exhibit a simple, periodic waveform, such as with sine, square, or triangular waves, the generators are called function generators. They are often used to check the function of ...
