  2. Volt-ampere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt-ampere

    1 kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −3. The volt-ampere (SI symbol: VA, [1] sometimes V⋅A or V A) is the unit of measurement for apparent power in an electrical circuit. It is the product of the root mean square voltage (in volts) and the root mean square current (in amperes). [2] Volt-amperes are usually used for analyzing alternating current (AC) circuits.

  3. Amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier

    An amplifier is defined as a circuit that has a power gain greater than one. [2][3][4] An amplifier can be either a separate piece of equipment or an electrical circuit contained within another device. Amplification is fundamental to modern electronics, and amplifiers are widely used in almost all electronic equipment.

  4. Power amplifier classes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_amplifier_classes

    Power amplifier classes. In electronics, power amplifier classes are letter symbols applied to different power amplifier types. The class gives a broad indication of an amplifier 's characteristics and performance. The first three classes are related to the time period that the active amplifier device is passing current, expressed as a fraction ...

  5. Watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt

    Power is the rate at which energy is generated or consumed and hence is measured in units (e.g. watts) that represent energy per unit time. For example, when a light bulb with a power rating of 100 W is turned on for one hour, the energy used is 100 watt hours (W·h), 0.1 kilowatt hour, or 360 kJ. This same amount of energy would light a 40 ...

  6. Audio power amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power_amplifier

    Audio stereo power amplifier made by McIntosh The internal view of a Mission Cyrus 1 Hi Fi integrated audio amplifier (1984) [1]. An audio power amplifier (or power amp) amplifies low-power electronic audio signals, such as the signal from a radio receiver or an electric guitar pickup, to a level that is high enough for driving loudspeakers or headphones.

  7. Audio power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

    Audio power. Audio power is the electrical power transferred from an audio amplifier to a loudspeaker, measured in watts. The electrical power delivered to the loudspeaker, together with its efficiency, determines the sound power generated (with the rest of the electrical power being converted to heat). Amplifiers are limited in the electrical ...

  8. Class-D amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class-D_amplifier

    The first class-D amplifier was invented by British scientist Alec Reeves in the 1950s and was first called by that name in 1955. The first commercial product was a kit module called the X-10 released by Sinclair Radionics in 1964. However, it had an output power of only 2.5 watts. The Sinclair X-20 in 1966 produced 20 watts but suffered from ...

    The rarest of all the original 'woodie' series was the Professional. It was the largest of the trio featuring Jensen 15” field-coil speaker and 6 tubes delivering 25 watts of power. [3] The production of these amps ceased in 1948, however, the names of the amps became enduring ones for Fender.
