Object: At least two different diodes voltage current characteristics.

Apparatus required: Connecting Wires, Multimeter, and Experimental Kit

Theory: P-n junction diode

A p–n junction is a boundary or interface between two types of semiconductor material, p-type and n-type, inside a single crystal of semiconductor as shown in figure

Experiment -2

Object: To make discrete component AND and OR gate using Transistor.

Apparatus required: Connecting Wires, Transistors, Bread board and Resistances etc.

Theory: AND gate –The AND gate is a basic digital logic gate that implements logical conjunction - it behaves according to the truth table to the right. A HIGH output (1) results only if both the inputs to the AND gate are HIGH (1). If neither or only one input to the AND gate is HIGH, a LOW output results. In another sense, the function of AND effectively finds the minimum between two binary digits, just as the OR function finds the maximum. Therefore, the output is always 0 except when all the inputs are 1s. Connect two transistors in a way that the output is high only when both inputs are high.

Fig 1 AND Gate Symbol, Truth table, Transistor equivalent

OR gate – The OR gate is a digital logic gate that implements logical disjunction - it behaves according to the truth table to the right. A HIGH output (1) results if one or both the inputs to the gate are HIGH (1). If neither input is HIGH, a LOW output (0) results. In another sense, the function of OR effectively finds the maximum between two binary digits, just as the complementary AND function finds the minimumThis is simpler, connect them in a way that when either input is high the output will be high.

Experiment No.-3

Object: To study R-C-Coupled amplifier, frequency characteristics to determine lower and upper cut off frequencies & band width.

Equipment Used: 1. CRO

2. FET Amplifier Kit

3. A F Generator

4. Multimeter

5. Connecting wires

Theory: An FET can also be used as an amplifier like the ordinary transistor. FET has the extra advantage of high input impedance It finds extensive application as single stage amplifier in measuring instruments due to its high input Impedance. So far as the input impedance is concerned the FET behaves like a vacuum tube pentode. Fig. a, shows the circuit diagram of a common source amplifier with self-biasing. The capacitor C1 &C2 are coupling capacitors which prevents any external DC voltage from disturbing the bias conditions of FET amplifier. The capacitor Cs acts as the AC bypass capacitor across Rs and serves the same purpose as CE in a common emitter amplifier. If Cs is disconnected then negative feedback takes place and the gain of the circuit reduces.

These voltages give you the DC bias point.

4. Connect a AF Oscillator at Input Port with its frequency adjusted to 1KHz.5. Connect a C.R.O. at the output port & adjust the input signal amplitude so as to get undistorted output on C.R.O.

6. Measure the voltage gain by Measuring output &input amplitudes on the C.R.O. at different signal frequency. This will give you the frequency responses of the amplifier without feedback.

7. Switch OFF So. This disconnects the by-pass capacitor Cs & negative feedback is introduced. Repeat steps-4 to 6 for this conduction.

Result: The frequency response shown in the semilog graph paper.

Precautions:

1. Switch off power supply before making any interconnections on the board. 2. Use proper leads only for interconnections.

3. If the dc supply is not coming then it may be due to short circuiting in the connections. Remove the connections in such a case and check the dc supply.

Oscillator is the standard oscillator circuit for all low to moderate frequencies, in the range of

5Hz to about 1MHz.

Experiment 7

Object: To make mod10 ripple counters using commercial chip & record its performance & wave shape.

THEORY: A counter is a register capable of counting number of clock pulse arriving at its clock input. Counter represents the number of clock pulses arrived. A specified sequence of states appears as counter output. This is the main difference between a register and a counter. There are two types of counter, synchronous and asynchronous. In synchronous common clock is given to all flip flop and in asynchronous first flip flop is clocked by external pulse and then each successive flip flop is clocked by Q or Q output of previous stage. A soon the clock of second stage is triggered by output of first stage. Because of inherent propagation delay time all flip flops are not activated at same time which results in asynchronous operation.

Experiment -8

Object: To make a synchronous counter of mod 4 and study its wave shape. Convert it into a ring counter.

Apparatus Required: IC7408, IC7476, IC7400, IC7432, Bread board, Connecting wires.

Theory: Synchronous Counter, the external clock signal is connected to the clock input of EVERY individual flip-flop within the counter so that all of the flip-flops are clocked together simultaneously (in parallel) at the same time giving a fixed time relationship. In other words, changes in the output occur in "synchronization" with the clock signal. This results in all the individual output bits changing state at exactly the same time in response to the common clock signal with no ripple effect and therefore, no propagation delay. Synchronous Counter as shown in figure.

Fig 1: Binary 4-bit Synchronous Counter

Page 20: Ade manual final

The output of shift registers back to its input so that the output from the last flip-flop, QD becomes the input of the first flip-flop, DA. We would then have a closed loop circuit that "recirculates" the DATA around a continuous loop for every state of its sequence, and this is the principal operation of a Ring Counter. Then by looping the output back to the input, we can convert a standard shift register into a ring counter. Consider the circuit below.

Result: MOD-4 Synchronous Counter has been studied along with the wave shapes.

Experiment No.-10

OBJECT: Obtain a Schmitt trigger and study its characteristics for different input levels.

EQUIPMENTS REQUIRED: Experimental board on transfer characteristics of Schmitt trigger Model – D518.

THEORY: Fig. Shows a regenerative comparator this is known as Schmitt trigger. The input voltage Vi triggers the o/p Vo every time it exceed certain voltage level. The voltage levels are called as upper threshold voltage (Vht) &lower threshold voltage (Vlt). The hysteresis width is the difference between these two threshold voltages Vht – Vlt . these threshold voltage are calculated as follows.

Suppose Vo= Vsat, The voltages are at (+) input terminal can be obtained using superposition theorem,

Vht=Vref{R1/(R1+R2)}+VsatR2{R2/(R1+R2)}

If Vo= -Vsat . The voltage at the (+) input terminal is

Vlt= Vref{R1/(R1+R2)}-VsatR2{R2/(R1+R2)}

As long as Vi is less than Vut , the o/p Vo remains constant .

PROCEDURE:

1) We vary the input voltage from minimum to maximum and take reading of output voltage.

2) We note down the input voltage at which output goes low.

3) Now we vary the input voltage from maximum to minimum and take the reading of output voltage.

4) We note down the input voltage at which output goes High..

multimeter, Connecting wires.

Theory: Most of the signal low power amplifier at low or high

frequency make use of RC Coupling network does not

couple the dc output of one state to other but it does

modify the frequency response of the amplifier Fig-a as

shows a single stage RC coupled transistor amplifier CE

is called the emitter bypass capacitor the biasing resistor

R1,R2 emitter resistor RE and collector resistor Rc.

Frequency Response:

The gain of an the amplifier circuit is not same for all frequencies. A plot of voltage gain as a

function of frequency is called the frequency response of the amplifier. A typical frequency

response curve for signal RC coupled amplifier is shown in Fig-b .As can be seen the whole curve

can be divided into three parts

OBJECT : Make multivibrators using 555 chip.

Study of IC 555 as a mono stable (one shot) Multivibrator.

EQUIPMENTS REQUIRED: Analog board of AB28, DC power supplies + 5V, from external source or ST2612 Analog Lab, 2 mm patch cords, Ohm meter, Function generator [for pulse signal (Scientech Function Generator ST4062,ST4063 etc.)]

THEORY:

The functional diagram of 555 timer has two comparators UC (upper comparator) and LC (lower comparator), whose threshold voltages are 2Vcc/3 and Vcc/3 respectively, one SR flip flop (FF), a npn transistor , a pnp transistor, a power amplifier (act as a inverter).When input is applied to 2 pin of IC and as its –ive excursion crosses Vcc/3 LC will set the FF which makes output 1(high). FF output will off the transistor which realize the short circuit across capacitor (C) and it starts charging towards power supply. When the voltage of capacitor or at pin 6 reaches 2Vcc/3 in +ive excursion UC resets the FF and output becomes 0 (low). Since for another pulse at output a new trigger input is applied to pin 2 . therefore it is called monostable multivibrator.

Page 26: Ade manual final

PROCEDURE:

Connect power supply + 5V from ST2612 or any external source.1. Connect point a to point b using a 2mm patch cord.2. Connect point c to point d/e using a 2mm patch cord.3. Keep the pot (R2 1M) to fully anticlockwise direction.4. Apply a pulse signal of 5Vpp and 1 KHz (keep duty cycle of pulse 50%) at pin 2of IC 555 i.e. to the point e/g on AB28 board. Observe the same on oscilloscopeCHI.5. Connect pin 3 of IC55 i.e. output socket to the oscilloscope CHII.6. Vary the pot and observe the variation of output pulse duty cycle with thechange in resistance R (where, R=R1+R2).7. For any value of R measure the ON time of output pulse.8. Calculate the same by following equation for theoretically calculating the outputpulse ‘On’ time.TP = 1.1 * R1C1Note : For calculating the value of R, disconnect the +5V supply and connectionbetween point a and b. Connect ohmmeter between point a and TP1. Theohmmeter will read the value of R.9. Verify theoretical and practical values of TP.Note : The two values of TP (theoretical and practical values) will match onlyfor time for which input pulse is High i.e. only for ‘On’ 'time of input pulse. Toverify this vary the duty cycle of input signal and check the output pulse dutycycle by varying R (R=R1+R2).10. Repeat above procedure for different values of R.

OBJECT : Study of IC 555 as a astable (free running) Multivibrator.

EQUIPMENTS REQUIRED: Analog board of AB28, DC power supplies + 5V, from external source or ST2612 Analog Lab, 2 mm patch cords.

THEORY:

The functional diagram of 555 timer has two comparators UC (upper comparator) and LC (lower comparator), whose threshold voltages are 2Vcc/3 and Vcc/3 respectively, one SR flip flop (FF), a npn transistor , a pnp transistor, a power amplifier (act as a inverter).When input is applied to 2 pin of IC and as its –ive excursion crosses Vcc/3 LC will set the FF which makes output 1(high). FF output will off the transistor which realize the short circuit across capacitor (C) and it starts charging towards power supply. When the voltage of capacitor or at pin 6 reaches 2Vcc/3 in +ive excursion UC resets the FF and output becomes 0 (low) which again make a short circuit across the capacitor and capacitor starts discharging towards ground. On discharging as its voltage reaches Vcc/3 LC sets FF which again make output 1(high) and the cycle repeats itself. Since it gives pulses at output hence it is called astable multivibrator.
