title: The design, simulation and characterisation of a class-B audio power amplifier
email: greg.s.jolley@gmail.com
description: >
  In this report I describe the design, simulation and characterisation of a novel,
  high performance, medium power (approx 50 W) class-B audio amplifier. Following a
  general discussion of amplifier characteristics and design goals, the amplifier
  schematic is presented and described in detail. SPICE simulation results verify the
  design and provide further understanding of circuit behaviour. A brief discussion on
  the methodologies of good PCB design is followed by a presentation of the key
  experimental characteristics of the amplifier along with a comparison to the characteristics
  derived by simulation. An amplifier control board which responds to thermal and short-circuit
  faults and adds radio and alarm clock features is briefly discussed. The final chapter
  `recommendations for future work' is a reflection upon the strengths and weaknesses of the
  amplifier design and suggest possible means of improvement.
