Abstract
An a-c linear amplifier with two push-pull-connected output transistors includes an ancillary transistor which, during saturation of one of the output transistors and the simultaneous cutoff of a controlled transistor driving these output transistors through a set of pilot transistors, conducts to maintain the base potential of this controlled transistor at its conduction threshold for preventing a distortion of the end of the flattened peak of the corresponding half-cycle of the output voltage. The ancillary transistor has one of its input leads maintained at a fixed biasing potential and the other of its input leads connected to a point of output-dependent variable voltage that allows its conduction during the flattened peak only.
