Crossover distortion in a class-B push-pull amplifier occurs mainly near?

  • AThe zero crossing of the output waveform
  • BThe positive supply rail only
  • CThe highest input frequency only
  • DDC cutoff frequency only
Report an error
Correct Answer: A. The zero crossing of the output waveform
Explanation: Near zero crossing, neither transistor may conduct until the input exceeds the required base-emitter threshold, producing a dead zone and crossover distortion.
