Si un amplificateur devenait non linéaire, le signal de sortie:

  1. Aserait affligé de distorsion
  2. Bserait réduit à zéro
  3. Cprovoquerait des oscillations
  4. Dsurchargerait le bloc d'alimentation

Correct answer: A — serait affligé de distorsion. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

When an amplifier becomes non-linear, it fails to copy the input signal perfectly, causing the output waveform to change shape and sound garbled, which is called distortion. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
