- Diodes D5, D7 block the reference signals F, -F from the audio signal unless the audio exceeds the value of F or -F then they conduct the output of op-amps A15, A13 to clip the audio at the value of reference F or -F.

It has been found that the arrangment shown creates generally flat audio response signals M, N to supplied the input of comparator A20 to generate a signal "0".
- signal F is fixed at a setting which will clip the audio at a selected input level. If the maximum load current is exceeded the signal 74 will exceed this reference F and only then will it cause signal F to reduce and in turn reduce the input clipping level.

- the output from the buffers B1-B4 drive the Mosfets Q13-Q20 which are paired to be connected to the primaries P2-P3 of transformers T4 and T5 so that the buffers cycle on and off to the primary coils. That is the current from primary P2 is slightly delayed to prevent overlap with the signal from primary 1 which is operated by the outputs from buffers Bl, B2. Operation of the units is cycled in order to provide the push-pull characteristics necessary to operate secondaries S1-S4 of transformer T4-T5 provided to be operated by the primary P2, P3 as shown.
- Appropriate rectifiers circuits are F1-F4 -associated with the secondaries , 51-54 to operate "OR" gates OR9-OR12 and the outputs 161-164; 171-174; 181-184; and 191-194 to operate drive circuits DR1-DR4 utilizing quad OR gates OR13-OR24 as shown which in turn operate MOSFETS Q21-Q28 which, respectively operate MOSFETS Q29-Q32 where the MOSFETS (Q21, Q22) , (Q23, Q24), (Q25 , Q26) and (Q27,Q28) are tied together and the MOSFETS 29-Q32 are tied together as are MOSFETS Q30, Q31 to supply AC power to load L, through a filter 210 for example a notch filter as known in the art.
Abstract
Un système d'alimentation et d'amplification de basses fréquences comprend un amplificateur basse fréquence conçu pour recevoir un signal (AD) basse fréquence fourni à un atténuateur (70) qui reçoit et atténue sélectivement ledit signal, lequel est ensuite fourni à un circuit de tampon (80) et à un circuit de filtrage (90) servant à conditionner ledit signal. Le signal (99) ainsi atténué et filtré est ensuite délivré à un modulateur (100) où il est converti en un signal d'onde rectangulaire présentant une largeur d'impulsion qui est fonction du niveau du signal basse fréquence. Le signal d'impulsion d'onde rectangulaire est ensuite délivré à un convertisseur push-pull (110) qui produit un signal de courant alternatif fourni à la bobine primaire (P3, P4) d'un transformateur (T3, T4), un signal de sortie amplifié étant délivré à une charge (L) provenant de la bobine secondaire (S3A, S3B, S4A, S4B) du transformateur. Les caractéristiques de la charge sont analysées et un signal de chargement est fourni à un circuit écrêteur (220) qui empêche la sortie de dépasser des limites de charge sélectionnées.
