摘要:
0 An r.f. power amplifier, typically a high efficiency, class E amplifier in which a reactive load circuit (18) is connected to a semiconductor switching device (10), the load circuit being designed to have the required input load angle and loaded Q so that the voltage across the device (10) goes to zero with zero slope before it switches on and passes current, is provided with a step recovery diode (32) connected to the device (10) to limit the voltage swing across the device (10) with no significant loss of efficiency. This allows the voltage-handling capability required of the device to be reduced or the amplifier output power to be increased by increasing the supply voltage.
摘要:
A class D transmitter arrangement comprises a pulse width modulator (1) providing complimentary outputs B, C to a push-pull modulation amplifier (2) whose output is smooth by a low pass filter (3). The voltage of the filtered signal is stepped up by a transformer (4) to provide a component of the supply voltage for a power amplifier (5) amplifying the transmitter carrier signal. The maximum output from the transformer (4) have a peak-to-peak voltage of twice the voltage of a power supply (9) supplying both the modulation pmplifier (2) and a fixed component of the supply for the amplifier (5), through a choke (8). The power supply voltage need only be half that required in known arrangements.

Schaltung, bei der eine Last an den Ausgang eines Verstärkers angeschlossen ist, insbesondere die Gradienten-Spulenanordnung in einem Kernspintomographiegerät. Um die Verlustleistung in dem Verstärker (2) zu verringern, wird die Versorgungsspannung (5+, 5-) für den Verstärker (2) von einem Gleichspannungserzeuger (6) geliefert, dessen Ausgangsspannung der Eingangsspannung in Stufen folgt, jedoch stets um einen gewissen Betrag größer bleibt als die der jeweiligen Eingangsspannung zugeordnete Ausgangsspannung des Verstärkers (2).
摘要:
An extremely high fidelity digital audio amplifier having a modulator (7) for transforming an analog audio input signal into two complementary trains of pulse width modulated signals for driving power switches (80 and 81), which modulator (7) utilizes a precision triangular waveform to control the transformation. The modulator (7) employs all differential processing without saturated transistors to achieve a minimal distortion modulation system. Upon the occurrence of over-modulation, pulses from the width modulated pulse train produced by the modulator (7) are dropped, and the resulting loss of pulses is detected and fed back to a variable gain amplifier stage (3) of the system. A distortion detection system (5) for detecting the missing pulses utilizes a timing network (60 and 62) to establish the missing pulse period necessary to begin input attenuation of the audio signal by the variable gain amplifier stage (3). A reconstruction filter (13) includes a low-pass section (110) for recovering the amplified audio signal and a notch filter section (101 and 102) having notches centered to eliminate the fundamental of the switching frequency. A variable inductor (121) is employed in connection with a section of the notch filter (101 and 102) for aiding in the proper notching of the signals to maximize surpression of the switching frequency, such inductor (121) being coupled to the feedback network (9), and is adjusted by the operator.
