Abstract :
Switched-mode transistor operation is known to provide greater efficiency than circuits using linear amplifiers. This paper describes some switched-mode circuits and shows how they are used in a high-density carrier system; the improved circuit efficiency which results permits the carrier system to be considerably simplified and heat dissipation to be reduced greatly.
