Question:

For the circuit of Fig. 5.10, assume that V_CC= 12 V, R_L= 1 kÎ©, and V_CE(sat)= 0.2 V. Assume that there is sufficient sinusoidal input voltage available at V_ito drive V_oto its limits of clipping. Calculate the maximum average power that can be delivered to R_Lbefore clipping occurs, the corresponding efficiency, and the maximum instantaneous device dissipation. Neglect crossover distortion.
