Patent Number: 4,752,745

Opto-isolated bias circuit for operating push-pull amplifiers in class A and class AB modes

Abstract: A high fidelity audio amplifier of the push-pull complementary symmetry type, featuring a feedback circuit with a bias sensing element connected to the output terminals of the output transistors. The feedback circuit includes a photoemitting element in optical communication with a photoconductive element which determines the relative voltage difference of the input terminals of the complementary symmetry output transistors.
