ABSTRACT:
A circuit for providing a base operating voltage for a bipolar transistor includes a UBEmultiplier providing, in response to a working-point control current, a working voltage fed to a circuit for reducing the working voltage in order to generate a base operating voltage smaller than a base-emitter voltage drop of a bipolar power transistor. With this, the bipolar power transistor may be maintained in the class C operation in a flexible and robust manner, so that an amplifier with high efficiency is obtained.
