Power Lines: Factors That Affect Power Transfer Between An Amplifier And Transducer
Pat Brown 04/03/13 11:36 AM,There are a number of possibilities for rating a power source. The most straightforward is a simple rating for continuous available power, a product of the maximum voltage (pressure) output times the maximum available current (flow) from the amplifier. This “Volt-Ampere” rating represents the largest number that could be used to characterize the amplifier. For the “ideal” amplifier, we could simply multiply the DC rail voltage times the maximum current available from the power supply into a purely resistive load.… View this post
