What is the disadvantage of a class B push-pull amplifier?(a) The efficiency reduces(b) The figure of merit increases(c) The cross-over distortion occurs(d) The Q-power dissipation is very largeThis question was addressed to me in an international level competition.I'm obligated to ask this question of Push-Pull Class B Amplifier topic in portion Power Amplifier of Analog Circuits |

Answer» CORRECT answer is (c) The cross-over DISTORTION occurs To elaborate: A class B amplifier helps increase efficiency, and the figure of merit reduces. The q power dissipation reduces and cross over distortion INCREASES. Due to two transistors, when ONE transistor turns off the other does not begin conduction immediately, HENCE output current is zero for a short interval. |
