Tube CAD Totem Pole Amplifier
B+
Where Ra=Rk
The Symmetrical Totem Pole amplifier. No coupling cap for the toy
- grid is needed as the plate resistor equals the cathode resistor. This

: The textbook Plate Follower. This circuit is like a Cathode Followe
a on boasts low output impedance. But itis actually much more flexibl
IC Cathode Follower. A gain of more than unity, or unity, or less than
out all possible. The downside is the lower input impedance of this cire
i _ the Cathode Follower.

The textbook Cathode Follower. Five components, including the tri
up this cireuit. It has less than unity gain and a low output impedan
input os rules of thumb to follow are to develop an equal voltage across bot
and cathode resistor (Rk) and to have Rk be no more than 1/5 as lar
value as the load resistance.
