Hello,
in Razavis' book "design of analog CMOS IC's" (**broken link removed**) I have been reading about loading effects and how they affect the transfer function of a closed loop system (for example page 273, for a voltage-voltage feedback circuit).
In Kenneth Kundert's publication "the...
Dear John,
Thank you for putting in so much work to help me out, I appreciate it! I will have a look at the lecture slides and the simulation tool now.
Thanks! But how can then R_opt_load_classB = R_opt_load_classA be explained? As we have said load impedance decreases with decreasing conduction angle in Class AB. What is the relationship between the used load resistance R_load and the impedance we talked about in the output characteristic ...
Thanks! So you mean when choosing a quiescent current in the Class AB regime, the fixed point (V_dd, I_q) in the output characteristic I_d (V_ds) moves down (compared to Class A), and when our loadline is supposed to connect (V_knee,I_max) and (V_dd, I_q) we get a steeper load line ~ 1/R, and...
Hello all,
I have been studying Class A and Class B power amp., and according to my lecture script R_opt_load_classA&B = (V_max-V_knee)/I_max applies. I can see this in the output characteristic of the transistor:
Furthermore it is said that the optimal load for Class AB is different: "at...
