In a class-B complementary push-pull output stage, crossover distortion occurs mainly near?

  • AThe zero crossing where both transistors may be insufficiently conducting
  • BThe positive supply rail only
  • CThe maximum power point only
  • DThe transistor breakdown voltage only
Report an error
Correct Answer: A. The zero crossing where both transistors may be insufficiently conducting
Explanation: Near zero input, neither transistor may conduct until its base-emitter threshold is reached, producing a dead zone and crossover distortion.
Reference: Standard analog electronics: class-B crossover distortion
