My question is about a Mono amplfier design with rail voltages of +/- 60 volts for a total potential of 120 volts.
Am I correct that each transistor will only see 60 volts in a class A/B bipolar push pull amplifier design because both transistors will never be on at the same time?
The transistors in question woudl be the TIP35C/36C which are rated for 100 volts.
I am being told that we need to use transistors that are rated at 150 Volts and think that this isnt necessary even to stay well within the SOA of the devices.
Thanks for you help,
Eric
