    摘要: A push-pull amplifer circuit using bipolar transistors in which non-linear distortion caused by the base-emitter voltages of the amplifying transistors of the circuit is eliminated without the use of negative AC feedback and in which variations in a DC output level at the output terminal of the amplifier are detected and fed back to the input side of the amplifier whereby the stability of the circuit at very low frequencies is remarkably improved. A first amplifier stage includes a first transistor having a base to which an input signal is applied and a second transistor the base of which is coupled to an output of the first transistor with the second transistor being of the opposite conductivity type of the first transistor. A current mirror circuit supplies currents to the first and second transistors with the currents thus supplied having a constant ratio. A second amplifying stage is provided having the same construction. A load is coupled to be driven by the current flowing through the first transistor in the first amplifying stage and by the corresponding transistor in the second amplifying stage. Variations in the output of the circuit are detected to provide a DC feedback voltage which is coupled back to emitter circuits in the input stages of the amplifier.

    摘要: A combination capacitor and transistor structure is described wherein the capacitor is formed integrally with the emitter electrode of the transistor. The transistor is formed in a monolithic integrated circuit using generally known techniques and constitutes a vertically integrated PNP device. The emitter electrode of the transistor which comprises a P+ diffusion region is of a predetermined area which is large enough to form the bottom plate of the capacitor. The top plate of the capacitor is formed by growing a dielectric material over the diffused emitter region and then forming metallization thereover. The combination capacitor and transistor structure may be utilized in a bias network for biasing the output stage of an operational amplifier in a class AB mode. The capacitor formed in the combination structure may be utilized as the compensation capacitor in such operational amplifier which utilizes pole splitting techniques. The improvement provided by the invention reduces the surface area of the semiconductor die chip required to form the capacitor and transistor which facilitates greater device density on a particular die chip.

    摘要: A class B push-pull transistor power amplifier is disclosed having two amplification branches each of which is internally compensated in the signal processing/voltage amplifying section thereof for the effects of temperature on the transistors contained therein by allowing the outputs of the respective branches to drift apart slightly with temperature and using a portion of the quiesent current thus produced to alter the bias on the inputs of the respective branches.

    摘要: A complementary transistor output circuit and method incorporates an optical coupler including a light emitting diode and a phototransistor connected between the base electrodes of a complementary pair of output transistors including a PNP transistor and an NPN transistor. The emitter of each of the output transistors is connected to an output of the output circuit. The base electrodes of the PNP output transistor and the NPN output transistor are connected, respectively, to first and second current source circuits. The collector electrode of the NPN output transistor is coupled by means of a first feedback circuit including a first resistor and a PNP transistor to the anode of a light emitting diode. The collector electrode of the PNP output transistor is coupled by means of a second feedback circuit to include a second resistor and an NPN transistor to the cathode of the light emitting diode. A phototransistor operates to effectively shunt base drive current supplied by the two current source circuits to the PNP and NPN output transistors to establish a bias voltage, and to maintain a constant quiescent bias current through the output transistors. The magnitude of the quiescent bias current is determined by the resistances of the first and second resistors and by the base-to-emitter voltages of the transistors in the first and second feedback circuits. The method of the invention includes sensing an increase in the bias current in one of the output transistors, increasing the current through the light emitting diode in response to the increase in the bias current, and directing the emitted light to the base of the phototransistor to decrease the bias current.

    摘要: A load is connected across one DC source of a first polarity and is connected to the opposite polarity of a second DC source, the two sources being connected in series with a capacitor/resistor network, or other voltage maintaining circuit, connected in parallel with the series combination of the two sources. The first source drives the load in one polarity and the second source drives the load in the other polarity thereby to achieve rapid slewing of the voltage across the load. In another embodiment a fixed power source may be connected in series with the first power source so that the slewing of voltage across the load occurs above a given reference level. The first and second sources are driven in a complementary fashion so that the sum of their instantaneous output voltages is always constant and equal to the individual maximum voltage which each may obtain. Since the slewed sources comprise a high voltage bilateral system, feedback may be utilized for stability and accuracy.
