THEORY:
The amplifier is said to be class A power amplifier if the q point and the input
signal are selected such that the output signal is obtained for a full input cycle . For this
class the position of q point is approximately y at the mid point of the load line.
For all the values of input signal the transistor remains in the active region and
never entire into the cutoff or saturation region. The collector current flows for 3600
(life cycle) of the input signal in other words the angle of the collector current flow
is 3600 the claa a amplifiers or furthers classified as directly coupled and transformer
coupled and transformer coupled amplifiers in directly coupled type .The load is
directly connected in the collector circuit while in the transformer coupled type,
the load is coupled to the collector using the transformer.
PROCEDURE:
