Class B Amplifiers

Class B Amplifier is a type of microwave power amplifier that operates with the active device conducting current for exactly one-half of the input signal cycle, thereby distinguishing itself from other amplifier classes by its conduction angle of 180 degrees and its trade-off between efficiency and linearity.
