How operating in Class AB can overcome cross-over distortion in Class B push-pull amplifiers, getting near 100% efficiency in Class C, and understanding design tradeoffs in Classes A, B, AB, and C.
Hey Vik - if a designer doesn't care too much about linearity and wanted to optimize for 1. efficiency and 2. power, are there other more exotic topologies to consider outside of just class B?

Absolutely - there’s class F, J, inverse modes, and a whole lot of trickery in this PA design thing.
