🔍 Key Concepts

• Class A amplifier conduction and linear region • Difference between average, RMS, and peak voltage in AC waveforms • How close the signal can get to the power-supply rails before clipping (overload)

💭 Think About

• Which voltage measure tells you how large the maximum excursion of the waveform can be before distortion occurs? • When we worry about an amplifier’s signal-handling capability, are we more concerned with heating/average power, or with avoiding clipping at the extremes of the waveform? • For a sine wave, how are peak, RMS, and average values related, and which one directly describes the largest instantaneous value?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the definition of RMS voltage versus peak voltage for a sine wave. • Think about which parameter is used to determine when an amplifier will clip the tops of the waveform. • Eliminate any option that mainly describes DC bias or long-term average, rather than instantaneous maximum signal level.
