Power Amplifier. The function of a power amplifier is to raise the power level of input signal. It is required to deliver a large amount of power and has to handle large current. The characteristics of a power amplifier are as follows −. The base of transistor is made thicken to handle large currents. The value of β being (β > 100) high.

Class C Power Amplifier. When the collector current flows for less than half cycle of the input signal, the power amplifier is known as class C power amplifier. The efficiency of class C amplifier is high while linearity is poor. The conduction angle for class C is less than 180 o.
Power amplifiers are divided into two categories, based on the frequencies they handle. They are as follows. Audio Power Amplifiers − The audio power amplifiers raise the power level of signals that have audio frequency range (20 Hz to 20 KHz). They are also known as Small signal power amplifiers.
