Abstract :
A modified push-pull circuit is described in which approximately square waves of current are passed thru the two tubes alternately. High efficiency is obtained by superimposing upon the grid circuit a voltage proportional to current variations in the plate circuit. The circuit gives high output combined with high efficiency without shortening the life of the tubes.
