Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A particular Class A amplifier has a quiescent current of 20 mA and works with positive peaks of 10V across an 8Ω load. Calculate the maximum power it could theoretically output, and discuss whether this is achievable in real scenarios.

💡 Hint: Use ohmic power formulas but remember class A efficiency limitations.

Question 2

Design a scenario illustrating the impact of differing quiescent current levels on an amplifier’s performance. Propose ways to address inefficiencies while maintaining quality.

💡 Hint: Consider balancing efficiency and quality output.
