A quick search of this incredible question brought fourth some greater insight into the matter. It turns out the applications valve amplifiers are used for vary from guitar amplifiers, satellite transponders, audiophile stereo amplifiers, military applications and high power radio and UHF television transmitters.

What are the system applications of a class B amplifier?

Class B operated amplifier is used extensively for audio amplifiers that require high power outputs. Its also used as the driver and power amplifier stages of transmitters.


Which types of motor used in industrial side?

There are many types of motors used in industrial applications. The most common would probably be a DC motor, as the motor's speed is easily controllable and well suited for production processes.

A: class a


Difference between amplifier and power amplifier?

Voltage amplifiers are genrally used to amplify voltage signals to a certain db and amplification is a linear process. In power amplifiers it is not required to amplify voltage it is not significant and genraly equal to input voltage. It is significantly used to produce a large current at the output.


What is triode pentode?

A triode pentode is a thermionic valve, also known as a vacuum tube (USA). It comprises a triode which has three electrodes and a pentode which has five electrodes, both sections of the valve are enclosed in a single glass envelope. They were often used in domestic audio amplifiers in the 'valve era' where the triode section acted as a preamplifier to increase the amplitude of the low level signal from the input source such as a tape head or a crystal pick-up; and the pentode section provided sufficient power amplification to drive a small loudspeaker. Minimising the number of valves in such designs significantly reduced the overall power consumption, heat dissipation and manufacturing cost of the equipment. It also reduced the retail price, making record players more affordable to the domestic consumer. Triode pentodes are still used in some current production, British built Hi Fi amplifiers because, with careful attention to the design, they can be configured to out-perform double triodes (two triodes in a single envelope) in the driver stages.

Applications of tunnel diode?

Applications: They are used in low power amplifiers DLVA, microwave and RF power monitors, high-frequency triggers, ALC loops, zero bias detectors, ACP tunnel diode circuits, etc. Since they are more resistant to nuclear radiation, tunnel diodes are used in space applications like amplifiers for satellite communications.

What is equivalent to a valve in an electric circuit?

Depends what you mean by valve.If you talking about something that can limit or adjust the amount of current through a circuit then a rheostat or potentiometer. This has the same function as a valve in a plumbing system.The term valve, can also refer to old "valve-tubes" which were used in early electrical circuits, these had various functions, but were mostly used as amplifiers or transistors/ switches.


Uses of instrumentation amplifier?
