[QUOTE="The Raven, post: 342725, member: 6143"] A POWERFUL AMPLIFIER NAMED DIRTY HARRY The big module presented in the Photo1 below, come from a general circuit suitable for building amplifiers in any power level. This concrete benefit of the circuit presented in Fig.1 owed to the extensive use of constant current sources (CCS) in particular thermal compensated. The CCS ensures that, with slight modifications in some passive elements such resistors we can obtain a greater power output by simply increasing the power supply level and substituting the type of transistors with those of higher Vce and manipulating the number of output devices to sustain this supply level. The type of architecture used in this amplifier, after the spreading of Douglas Self book "Audio Power Amplifier Design Handbook", most people like to call it "Blameless" a term established by the author of this book.
