A transformer coupled class A power amplifier has a load of 100 O on the secondary. If the turn ratio is 10:1, what is the value of load appearing on the primary?

Correct answer: D. 10 kO

  • A. 5 kO
  • B. 20 kO
  • C. 100 kO
  • D. 10 kO

Explanation

The primary-referred load is Zp = (Np/Ns)^2 Zs. With a 10:1 ratio and a 100-ohm secondary load, Zp = 10^2 × 100 = 10,000 ohms, or 10 kΩ.
