  • This simulation with OrCAD PSpice 16.6 , shows a simple and elegant method to analyze the stability of a 3-stage amplifier with feedback applied as the compensation capacitors vary. This method is applied to the 200 Watt Mosfet Power Amplifier AL-35.
    We ‘ll see how to estimate the phase margin with Bode diagrams and how the compensation capacitors affect the phase margin and the frequency response of the amplifier gain.

  • Spice simulation with OrCAD PSpice of a 200Watt Power mosfet amplifier Zestaw AL-35. A 3 stage power amplifier with 2 N-channel Mosfet IRFP240 and 2 P-channel IRFP9240. IRFP9240 models in IRF and PWRMOS libaries are not suitable for performing the simulation correctly, new IRFP9240 models have been imported
    .The BD139 NPN transistor model and the medium power PNP transistor MJE350 model are missing in the default PSpice libraries. All the models are inside the .zip file. For adding all .lib and .olb libraries read the readme.txt file.

  • A full course using PSpice as SPICE simulator for a practical and easy way to learn 3-stage audio power amplifiers design with theory and SPICE simulation analysis. You ‘ll learn to calculate and size components of a basic three stage power amplifier. The sources current circuits of the first stage, study the effects of a feedback signal application, the mirroring of the first stage currents, design of a typical dual rail power supply for a fixed power, features of enhanced output stages with a current limiter, a zobel network filter, Nyquist Criterion to validate the stability of the amplifier with a feedback applied. The course explains how to implement frequency compensation with one or two dominant poles with compensation capacitors, design of top quality BJT 100W quasi complementary class B, 100W complementary class B, 140W class B, 40W class A.
