摘要:
A power amplifier with an automatic bias control circuit is disclosed. The amplifier includes two complementary Darlington pairs operating in a push-pull mode providing output power. A bias control network including a switching transistor is coupled to the base circuits of the Darlington pairs for controlling the bias current delivered to the pairs. The transistor is switched on and off by a detecting circuit which senses the presence of input signals applied to the amplifier. The bias control network operates to minimize power consumption by the Darlington pairs when no input signal is present and to raise the bias level of the Darlington pairs without distortion in the output signal when an input is applied to the amplifier.

A direct-coupled amplifier circuit with negative feedback includes a first amplifier having an input terminal and a feedback terminal. A second amplifier further amplifies the signal amplified by the first amplifier, and a first resistor provides negative feedback of the second amplifier to the feedback terminal of the first amplifier. A series R-C circuit consisting of a capacitor and a second resistor is connected across the feedback terminal of the first amplifier and ground. A charging circuit charges the capacitor of the R-C circuit during the period immediately following the application of the power supply voltage, thereby to increase the voltage at the feedback terminal more rapidly than the voltage at the input terminal.

摘要:
A transistor power amplifier is provided with direct-current-coupling between stages and to the loudspeaker. The output stage is push-pull single-ended and includes two transistors connected in series at a midpoint of the stage. A split power supply has a center-tap connected to one output terminal and the other output terminal is connected to said output stage midpoint. Amplification and drive stages are direct-current-coupled in cascade to the output stage. A direct-current negative feedback network extends from the output stage to an amplification stage to maintain the output terminals at substantially the same quiescent potential to prevent direct-current flow through the voice-coil of the loudspeaker.
