This amplifier clips at 24.5 volts peak to peak. When I turn up the gain, both the high-going part and low-going part of a sinusoid clip at the same time.
The supply is +/- 19 volts. Vc=0.5 volts. Ve=-13.4 volts. Thus Vce is 13.9 volts and allows for a swing of almost 28 volts peak to peak. Between the collector and the supply is 17.5 volts so this should be no problem for a 28 volt peak to peak swing.
Why is it clipping, how do I get more swing out of it? Any help will be greatly apprecated.
