  • Abstract
    An analytical procedure of design of common-emitter transistor audio amplifiers is given. The conditions of optimum design for maximum power output are derived for resistance-capacitance and transformer-coupled amplifiers, taking in consideration the limitations of the collector characteristics. Finally, the distortion caused by nonlinearity of the collector characteristic is computed.
