  • Abstract
    Factors affecting the design of switched transistor power amplifiers are discussed. Semiconductor devices now available for such applications are listed, and various means for producing variable mark/space ratio driving pulses are mentioned. Details are given of two transistor power amplifiers; these have maximum outputs of 2 watts and 1 kW, approximately. Their efficiencies are 92 and 99%, respectively. Finally, some applications of switched transistors in servo systems and a.f. amplifiers are mentioned.
