  • Abstract
    Previous analyses of class E amplifiers have required infinite output network Q and/or infinite DC-feed inductance. A Laplace-transform technique is applied to class E circuits with neither of these restrictions. The analysis presented is shown to have excellent agreement with observed circuit performance
