In this article we will know about the transistor audio
power amplifier. We will also know about the voltage and power amplifier.in
this article we will try to know that how a amplification
work or working of amplifier.
Transistor audio power amplifier
Introduction
A practical amplifier always consists of a number of stages
that amplify a weak signal until sufficient power is available to operate a
loud speaker of their output device. The first few stages in this multistage
amplifier have the function of only voltage amplification. However, the last
stage is designed to provide maximum power. This final stage is known as power
stage.
it is the circuit diagram of transistor audio power amplifier. which is shown below.
The term audio means the range of frequencies which our ears
can hear. The range of human hearing extends from 20HZ to 20KHZ. Therefore,
audio amplifiers amplify electrical signals that have a frequency range
corresponding to the range of human hearing. The early stages build up the
voltage level of the signal while the last stage builds up power to a level
sufficient to operate the loudspeaker.
Transistor audio power amplifier
A transistor amplifier which raises the power level of the
signal that has audio frequency range is known as transistor audio amplifier,
In general, the last stage of a multistage amplifier is the
power stage. The power amplifier differs from all the previous stages in that
here a concentrated effort is made to obtain maximum output power. A transistor
that is suitable for power amplification is generally called a power
transistor. It differs from other transistors in size; it is considerably
larger to provide for handling the great amount of power.it is main working of transistor
audio power amplifier.
Difference between voltage and power amplifier
The distinction between voltage and power amplifier is
somewhat artificial since useful power (that is product off voltage and
current) is always developed in the load resistance through which current
flows. The difference between the two types is really one of degree; it is a
question of how much voltage and how much power. A voltage amplifier is
designed to achieve maximum voltages amplification. It is, however, not
important to raise the power level. On the other hand a power amplifier
designed to obtain maximum output power.
Hence it is the transistor audio power amplifier if you find
