V-FET Power Amplifier with 2SK70 and 2SJ20 complimentary stage, by Jean Hiraga in 1970's.
Jean Hiraga (l’Audiophile No. 11)
Class A, 60 Watts






The improved schematic can be modified so that it operates from Class A to AB. Simply, the modification relates to the 12 kohm resistors, which are replaced by higher resistances. 
Thus, the rated output power could be doubled, 
while increased power supply rail voltages are needed though.

 

However, in the case of using speakers with a relatively good output (as realised by Y. Neveu and J Mahul) the amplifier as described is sufficient in many systems intended for reproduction in an apartment, the noise level it makes can be very high.

 

However, the diagram can evolve with regard to the power. The basic circuit is not called into question, the changes relate to the power supply, the heatsinks and the transistors. 

The technology of the vertical field effect semiconductors, or power V-FET, makes it possible to obtain nearly 60 W under pure class A. 


Obtaining higher power passes naturally to the choice of other power transistors, such as V-FET, R.E.T. (Ring Emitter Transistor), MOS-FET, VMOS-FET, and Bipolar. 

It is necessary to note that the paralleling of output stages is not possible if the preceding stage does not have itself a parallel structure. 

Indeed, in the particular layout of the output stage, reversed Darlington, the driver transistor and the output transistor do not constitute, from a functional point of view, that of a single transistor.

 However, an output stage consisting of paralleled power transistors limits the performances as regards band-width and distortion, compared to a stage consisting only of a suitably selected single transistor with a higher Pc. 

In all the cases, the increased output power is accompanied by increased capacitance Cob, which is already sufficiently enough to limit the performance.

 

This can appear to be in contradiction with many " commercial " circuits. It should well be seen that at the mass production level, economic considerations are necessarily taken into account. 

In the catalogues of the American manufacturers in particular, there are transistors of very high power, with a Pc of more than 350 W, available in complementary pairs. 

In spite of this, in the construction of high power amplifiers, one prefers to employ the parallel layouts of transistors at a much lower cost price. The manufacturers can say what they want, but the perfect complementary pairs do not exist yet, in power transistors particularly. 

The use of a parallel arrangement inevitably results in placing the power transistors on various points of the heatsink. Also, the slightest variations in temperature immediately disperse the pairs, and inevitably disturb the operation of the amplifier. This is why we wait before publishing the description of an amplifier with high power and high quality. 

The progress of solid state physics and of semiconductors in particular, is so fast that we are persuaded that within one year, one will be able to find in the power MOS-FET and VMOS-FET series, transistors such that it will be possible to design a 100 W class A amplifier using only four transistors in all.

Because let us not forget that simplicity is a decisive criterion. 
At which time the prepreamp/preamp/amp unit uses only five or six stages in total?
