Transistor Amplifiers - Class A, AB, B, & C Circuits

This electronics video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the Class A, AB, B, and C transistor amplifiers. The class A amplifier is the common emitter amplifier which uses a single NPN transistor. The Class B amplifier using two complementary NPN and PNP transistors and yields a higher amplifier efficiency. The Class AB amplifier uses two diodes to eliminate the crossover distortion that's present in the Class B amplifier. The Class C amplifier is a tuned amplifier with a high efficiency but with extensive distortion.

There is like magic in your voice and explanations, they are clear, precise and the essential is said to allow us to always learn something. THANKS.

This man has been my messiah for Honors Algebra II, Honors Pre Calc, AP Calculus I and II, Honors and AP Chemistry, and AP Physics... I stan

Thank you so much for all of your help, I am now going to Carnegie Mellon as a double major in math and computer science. I honestly think my understanding and love for math has greatly been facilitated by your videos, and I plan to use your videos for college and beyond!!

First year of undergrad to last year of it, you are literally saving my life, be it calculus, linear algebra, your explanation is unparalleled. I was struggling with this topic, i have an exam today, I almost gave up on the topic, and you explained the whole thing to me in 30 minutes. Will always be grateful to your for this quality contents.

[PunmasterSTP]

Wow, you make this stuff seem as easy as A…B…C…. Keep up the great work!

[artay]

Ever since we went to online classes cause of the quarantine. You’ve helped me a lot. Thanks!

[manfredcaranci]

Just what I was looking for to assign my class this week. Your presentation is excellent.

[rootuser]

He just helped me in calculus and now he is here again. Can you do a tutorial of revealing your face? Really appreciate what you are doing, I should ve just paid you $10, 000 for tuition fee not college. My college teachers suck.

[robertismond]

Thank you I just recently started tearing apart
Old amps ect and building my own circuits ....was slightly getting confused till I watched this great explanation 👍

[Ares-smuk]

That one clear, detailed and overall good explanation. Thank u.

[gamtogujju]

You are just brilliant and know very well how to explain with so ease, claps buddy!

[RadiantBloom]

Nice video. NPN -Not Pointing iNward. PNP - Perfectly iNward Pointing.

[robonkenhout]

Amazing! You're good at this. (I mean the explanations) Many try, few succeed. I saw this exact formula (for Ib) on another video and was a little perplexed. Now, much clearer. Thanks!

[amaleltahir]

I usually go to these videos to help me with my algebra class.

[shaywhoop]

No kidding, you're a literal life saver

[eggieeeeeee]

JG, I have been watching your video tutorials, since a very long time. Your videos helped me a lot. But, as your student and fan, I have a request to you.I shall be much grateful, if you make a video, telling us, how you edit your videos, how do you make these tutorials. This is my small request. Have a good day☀.

[ubsuvjd]

9:55 +cycle Vs -cycle. Great job. Good and clear explanation. 😇😇😇👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

[rajveerajmani]

You sir are a SAVIOUR thank you SO MUCCCH!

[martinx]

I learned more knowledge from this in 17 minutes compared to the 5 hours lecture in my uni

[peterwan小P]

I was literally searching for informations about audio amplifier on YouTube and I know you because I used to watch a lot of video from you to help my high school study (like physics and maths) but MAN you literally know everything OH MY GOD ?! you not only shocked but also scared me XD you are amazing, how can you literally know everything ??? man you must have lots of degree OMG XD
