2. Audio power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

   The peak power of an amplifier is determined by the voltage rails and the maximum amount of current its electronic components can handle for an instant without damage. This characterizes the ability of equipment to handle quickly changing power levels, as many audio signals have a highly dynamic nature.

3. Power bandwidth - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_bandwidth

   The full-power bandwidth is then related to the slew rate in volts per second and the peak-to-peak voltage swing by = where is expressed in hertz. In data sheets for commonly available operational amplifiers, slew rate is usually given in volts per microsecond.

4. Amplifier figures of merit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier_figures_of_merit

   In RF linear Power Amplifiers, such as cellular base stations and broadcast transmitters, special design techniques can be used to improve efficiency. Doherty designs, which use a second output stage as a "peak" amplifier, can lift efficiency from the typical 15% up to 30-35% in a narrow bandwidth.

5. Power amplifier classes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_amplifier_classes

   In electronics, power amplifier classes are letter symbols applied to different power amplifier types. The class gives a broad indication of an amplifier 's characteristics and performance. The first three classes are related to the time period that the active amplifier device is passing current, expressed as a fraction of the period of a ...

6. Clipping (audio) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipping_(audio)

   Amplifiers have voltage, current and thermal limits. Clipping may occur due to limitations in the power supply or the output stage. Some amplifiers are able to deliver peak power without clipping for short durations before energy stored in the power supply is depleted or the amplifier begins to overheat.

7. Crest factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crest_factor

   The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is the peak amplitude squared (giving the peak power) divided by the RMS value squared (giving the average power). [1] It is the square of the crest factor. When expressed in decibels, crest factor and PAPR are equivalent, due to the way decibels are calculated for power ratios vs amplitude ratios.
