i've just joined this forum having been learning electronics as a hobby for some months. i've been looking at amplifiers class AB in https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/class-ab-amplifier.html. I have two questions if someone will answer me:-
1) Why is the diode biasing at Vin plus or minus 0.7volts when the two resistors R1 and R2 and Vcc have an effect too?
2) I thought the diodes would block negative current from Vin from reaching the transistors, they seem to be treated purely as resistance?
Mod: Added a AB amp image.E
