If you open up the perennial favourite electronics textbook The Art Of Electronics and turn to the section on transistors, you will see a little cartoon. A transistor is shown as a room in which ...

There appears to be 16 large transisitors which were mounted to the heatsink of this amplifier. It is a Planet Audio 4 channel car audio amp. From some quick Google searching, it looks like I should ...

It may not be to everyone's taste, but this brand new monobloc amplifier from McIntosh cleverly blends both vacuum tube and solid-state technology in one chassis. If you’re not a serious audiophile ...

Learn how power amplifiers work, the common types, and what to lookout for when shopping for amps. You have to find out if the amplifier is a Class A/B analog amp or a Class D digital amplifier before ...

Sometimes I wish FETs had become practical before bipolar transistors. A FET is a lot more like a tube and amplifies voltages. Bipolar transistors amplify current and that makes them a bit harder to ...

The circuit was constructed around the functionality of a Class A amplifier to create a headphone circuit. BC308 – an epitaxial planar PNP transistor used for general purpose and low noise amplifier ...
