Okay so I here's what I learned about class AB output stage thus far
1) Need a bias voltage between the transistors to eliminate if not reduce the dead band for the output stage
2) One transistor turns on while the other stays off.
3) Under DC biasing, each one can be treated as if you're biasing a current mirror
4) To reduce thermal runaway, diodes are used as the bias voltage between the transistors pins (have to be switching) and to have emitter resistors as well.
My main questions is if I matched the output impedance of the transistor to the impedance of my load, will DC current from the emitter be the same when it reaches my load or is it solely based on the current gain of the transistor I'm working with?
