Outstage Unit
The outstage
sub circuit is split into two separate units called
outstage-unit
, in order to allow for a hierarchical pcb design. With standard
sized eurocard of size 100mm x 220mm each outstage-unit
provides board space
for a single heatsink with fan and six copies of the emitter amplifier.
The two outstage-unit
sub circuits share the specification with the
outstage
sub circuit, except that input and output currents are divided by a
factor of two. The specification is not copied here, because the hierarchical
sub circuit is introduced for the layout and shall not introduce a new logical
component.
