  • Amplificateurs (Électronique)
DEF

Amplificateur dont les composants actifs sont des dispositifs à semi-conducteurs plutôt que des tubes électroniques. Anciennement on pouvait dire que l'expression «à semi-conducteur» était synonyme de «transistorisé», mais ce n'est plus le cas depuis l'arrivée des nouveaux dispositifs à semi-conducteurs : les circuits intégrés.
