For what portion of the signal cycle does each active element in a push-pull, Class AB amplifier conduct?
More than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees✓Bonne réponse
Exactly 180 degrees
The entire cycle
Less than 180 degrees
Explication
Class AB is biased between Class A and Class B, so each device conducts for more than half of the cycle but shuts off before the cycle ends. In a push-pull pair the two devices overlap slightly near the zero crossing, which is what removes the crossover distortion of pure Class B.
