an advertiser goes into print he is starting to persuade: even a straight list of
components and their prices automatically carries the implication that the products
are worth buying. Any kind of print seems to have a spell- binding authority,
which is sometimes justified and sometimes not by the semantic content. When,
in addition, the image makers (e.g. the advertising agents) bring into play their
highly developed arts of persuasion the critical thinking apparatus of the reader is
almost certain to be swayed by unconscious emotional reactions to these images.

"Brilliant transient response ", "crystal -clear speech quality ", "the secret is ",
"precision made ", "smooth, breathing, open and graceful ", "efficient ", are no
doubt justifiable as descriptive terms in somebody's book of values, but they are
basically symbols designed to hypnotize, to stay further exploration of the meanings.
Simple superlatives-"world's best ", "superb quality" -also have this power.
Where factual information is presented most advertisers are, of course, aware of
their legal responsibilities (e.g. the 1968 Trade Descriptions Act). But even here, in
order to persuade effectively, they must emphasize the most attractive features of
their goods, and this sometimes results in a certain vagueness, notably in matters of
price and performance. The "frequency response" which is really only a frequency
range, the "accuracy" figure which is a percentage of an unstated quantity are
familiar examples.
Wireless World accepts advertisements in good faith -that is, in the belief that the
statements made can be justified. But all advertisements are essentially claims; the
truth is not necessarily self- evident in the words and pictures-it sometimes has to
be discovered. Caveat emptor.

Simple Class A Amplifier

A 10 -VV design giving subjectively better results than class B
transistor amplifiers

by J. L. Linsley Hood, .1/.I.E.E.

During the past few years a number of excellent designs have

been published for domestic audio amplifiers. However, some
of these designs are now rendered obsolescent by changes in the
availability of components, and others are intended to provide
levels of power output which are in excess of the requirements
of a normal living room. Also, most designs have tended to be
rather complex.
In the circumstances it seemed worth while to consider just
how simple a design could be made which would give adequate
output power together with a standard of performance which (a) (b) (e)
was beyond reproach, and this study has resulted in the present
design. Fig. 1. Basic class A circuits using (a) load resistor R, giving
power conversion efficiency of about 12%, (b) l.f. choke giving
better efficiency but being bulky and expensive, and (c) a second

The circuit shown in Fig. 3 may be used, with very little

modification to the component values, to drive load impedances
in the range 3 -15 ohms. However, the chosen output power is
represented by a different current /voltage relationship in each
case, and the current through the output transistors and the
output -voltage swing will therefore also be different. The
peak- voltage swing and the mean output current can be
calculated quite simply from the well -known relationships
W =PR and V =IR, where the symbols have their customary
significance. (It should be remembered, however, that the Square wave response at 501-k.
calculation of output power is based on r.m.s. values of
current and voltage, that these must be multiplied by 1.414 to
obtain the peak values, and that the voltage swing measured is
the peak-to-peak voltage, which is twice the peak value.)
When these calculations have been made, the peak -to-peak
voltage swing for 10 watts power into a 15-ohm load is found to
be 34.8 volts. Since the two output transistors bottom at about
0.6 volt each, the power supply must provide a minimum of 36
volts in order to allow this output. For loads of 8 and 3 ohms,
the minimum h.t. line voltage must be 27V and 17 volts
respectively. The necessary minimum currents are 0.9, 1.2 and
2.0 amps. Suggested component values for operation with these
load impedances are shown in Table 1. C3 and C, together

A high frequency roll -off can then be obtained, if necessary,
by connecting a small capacitor between the gate of the f.e.t.

but examples of this transistor type from three different
manufacturers were used with apparently identical results.
Similarly, the use of alternative types of input transistor
produced no apparent performance change, and the Texas
Instruments 2N4058 is fully interchangeable with the Motoro-
la 2N3906 used in the prototype.
The most noteworthy performance changes were found in
the current gain characteristics of the output transistor pair, (a)

The transistors used in these experiments were Motorola
MJ480/481, with the exception of (6), in which Texas 2S034
devices were tried. The main conclusion which can be drawn
from this is that the type of transistor used may not be very
important, but that if there are differences in the current gains
cf the output transistors, it is necessary that the device with
the higher gain shall be used in the position of Tr,.
When distortion components were found prior to the onset

presence of second harmonics.

Performance under listening conditions

It would be convenient if the performance of an audio
amplifier (or loudspeaker or any other similar piece of audio
equipment) could be completely specified by frequency re-
sponse and harmonic distortion characteristics. Unfortunately,
it is not possible to simulate under laboratory conditions the
complex loads or intricate waveform structures presented to
the amplifier when a loudspeaker system is employed to
reproduce the everyday sounds of speech and music; so that
although the square wave and low-distortion sine wave oscillat-
ors, the oscilloscope, and the harmonic distortion analyser are
valuable tools in the design of audio circuits, the ultimate test
of the final design must be the critical judgment of the listener
under the most carefully chosen conditions his facilities and
environment allow.
The possession of a good standard of reference is a great help
in comparative trials of this nature, and the author has been
fortunate in the possession, for many years, of a carefully and Underside of completed amplifier, with base cover removed, showing

which has proved, in listening trials, to equal or exceed, by
greater or lesser margins, that of any otter audio amplifier with
which the author has been able to make comparisons.
However, in the past, when these tests were made for
personal curiosity, and some few minutes could elapse in the
transfer of input and output leads from one amplifier to the
other, the comparative performance of some designs has been so
close that the conclusion drawn was that there was really very
little to choose between them. Some cf the recent transistor
power amplifier circuits gave a performance which seemed
fully equal to that of the "Williamson ", at least so far as one
could remember during the interval between one trial and the
next. It was, however, appreciated that this did not really offer
the best conditions for a proper appraisal of the more subtle
differences in the performance of already good designs, so a
changeover switch was arranged to transfer inputs and outputs
between any chosen pair of amplifiers, and a total of six
amplifier units was assembled, including the "Williamson ", and
another popular valve unit, three class B transistor designs,
including one of commercial origin, and the class A circuit
described above. The frequency response, and total harmonic
distortion characteristics, of the four transistor amplifiers was
tested in the laboratory prior to this trial, and all were found to Looking down on the completed amplifier.

to note that 10M of the television receivers

The tuning of L3 affects the oscillator output and also controls
its phase to some extent. It is easily tuned for maximum output
by connecting an oscilloscope to P6 and adjusting L3 for maximum

usually best to tune L, to a slightly lower frequency.

experience, for different enclosure volumes and sound sources.
When, however, the reverberation time reaches its optimum
value, other factors become important, as the example con-
sidered above clearly shows. Many years ago the B.B.C.° erected
two studios of identical linear dimensions, one with plain
-
surfaces and the other with corrugated walls. The measured
reverberation times were similar, but the subjectively assessed
performances were entirely different. This was due to the wide
difference between the ratio of direct to reverberent energy
for the two rooms, so that the diffusion of sound is as important
as absorption.
It has been suggested that for precise measurements the
ccmplex acoustic impedance (the complex ratio of pressure to
air particle velocity, analogous to the ratio of voltage and current
in an electric circuit) of the material be employed rather than
its absorption coefficient, and this may become the more
fundamental approach'. It is hoped that these techniques will
enable a more detailed understanding of the behaviour of sound
waves in closed rooms, and so permit the design of acoustic
materials with accurately specified properties.

the sound absorbing properties of the materials used in it, are iRS
important in the design of listening rooms. Experience has
shown that the energy lost to a given area of acoustic absorber
varies with the sub -division of that- area into smaller units,
and with their positioning in the enclosure, even if this is an

The measured results thus obtained are therefore a characteristic
of the particular enclosure, and not of the material alone. At

Surface Temperature Thermometer

A simple yet accurate design using variation of diode forward voltage
drop for measurement of heat sink temperatures from 0 to 100°C

by L. Nelson-,Iones, M. I. E. R. E.

This article describes the design and construc-

tion of a portable instrument for the measure-
ment of surface temperatures in electronic
and other equipment. It was designed
specifically for the measurement of heat sink
temperatures, though many other applications
spring to mind.
Originally when development was started a
thermistor probe was considered. After a great
deal of work this was dropped in favour of the
diode probe to be described. This was because
of the difficulty encountered in obtaining a
linear scale with a thermistor without recourse
to complex techniques.
Fig. 1 shows the forward characteristic of a
typical high conductance planar diode similar
to that used in the author's instrument. It will
be seen that the temperature coefficient of the
diode depends on the forward current.
The simple theory of a forward biased junc-
tion' suggests a temperature coefficient of
3.7mV / °C for silicon, and 2.2mV/°C for
germanium at around room temperature. In
practice, at current densities corresponding
to 1mA of forward current in the type of diode
used, the temperature coefficient is usually in
the region of 2 to 2.5mV/ °C. (In the author's
experience there is also correlation between

?uestions on page 191 VISIT STAND No.E203

The House of Bulgin has led the World in precision Electronic Component design for well over 40 years and this year are pleased
to announce that many new additions to their existing range will be on show at the R. E. C. M. F. Exhibition, Olympia. May 20th -
23rd 1969.
Notable items are: a range of D. P. C.O. Moulded Insulation Switches with various actuating means: three versions of a Switched
Indicator Unit. which can be legended to customers" own requirements: a universal 7 -pole + earth Plug and Socket for inlpt
and/or outlet uses rated 6A. 250V AC: further Moulded Insulation Switches alternative or replacement to our S.277 D.P. C. O.
(8 contact) type of laminated Switch: Switched Signal Unit with a push/twist locking action based on our popular 5.800 Micro
Switch rated 8A. 250V AC. Other components still under development will also be on show together with a representative
selection of our range of over 15.000 standard components.

reducing the loaded Q. This allows convenient values

of course, determines the frequency) without a damping /0
