Theory:Class-B complementary symmetry amplifiers are used where ac power is driving the load. This amplifier usually has a voltage gain of one, and a large current gain. In the circuit, BJTs provide a current gain of , and a low output resistance. When the input is positive and greater than 0.7V, the npn BJT is on and the pnp is off. Under these conditions, the npn acts like an emitter follower, taking the input current from the base., to provide current and a low source resistance to drive the load. When the input voltage is less than -0.7V, the npn is off and the pnp is on. Under these conditions, the pnp acts like an emitter follower, taking the input current from the base to sink current and provide a low source resistance to sink the load. The output resistance Rout is given by the parallel output resistance of the npn and pnp. For the positive half cycle, the ouput resistance of pnp is . Hence,
Rout = Ron 1 R + s g mm n v in 0.7

Similarly during the negative half cycle, the output resistance of npn is .

In the circuit, each power supply provides current during only half cycle. During the positive half cycle, positive DC supply is sourcing current, while during negative half cycle, the negative supply is sinking current. The average current provided by the positive supply is
I +sup ply = 1 V I c (t ) dt = o T0 RL
T 2

The average current provided by the negative supply is


I sup ply = 1 V I c (t ) dt = o T0 RL
T 2

The average power is


Psup ply = Vcc I +supply + Vee I -supply = 2VccVo RL

The power conversion efficiency is given by


=
PL Psup ply = Vo 4Vcc

When Vo = Vcc, the efficiency is maximum and is equal to 78.5%. When -.7V<Vs<.7V, both the transistors are off and the signal will not propagate. This region is called as cross over distortion region and the distortion is cross over distortion.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Connect the circuit as per circuit diagram. Feed the ac signal at input and keep the frequency at 1 KHz. Connect the power meter to the output of the amplifier along with Oscilloscope. And select the load impedance of the power meter to 50 ohms. Slowly increase the input signal amplitude till you read 30ma in both the ammeters. Note down the power meter reading and record it as ac output power Pac. Calculate the dc input power Dc input power (Pdc)=Vcc X I+suppy +Vee I_supply Where Vcc=12V, Vee=12V % Efficiency = ((Pac)/(pdc) )x100

Result:The output wave form Class B commentary symmetry amplifier is observed and efficiency is calculated.
