# Amplifiers

### Explanation of question 5

A single-stage class A transistor amplifier is overdriven. The effect will be to produce

1. cut-off
2. bottoming
3. odd harmonics in the output
4. a, b and c

The answer is :- 4 Overdriving will produce harmonics, because of distortion. Cut-off and bottoming are the flattening of the output waveform due to overdriving.
