ABSTRACT:
In an integrated circuit class B audio output device the transistors are fabricated as plural parallel connected sections. The two output transistors have their sections interdigitated so that adjacent sections are not turned on simultaneously. This leads to substantial improvements in thermal peaks within the transistors and to reduced thermal gradients across the transistors.
