DEPT OF ECE ELECTRONIC DEVICES AND CIRCUITS LAB

2 MLRIT, HYDERABAD-43

Theory: The essential electrical characteristic of a p-n junction diode is that it constitutes a

diode which permits the easy flow of current in one direction but restrains the flow in the

opposite direction.

The flow of current is controlled by the way of biasing a diode. Depending upon the

polarity of the dc voltage externally applied to it, the biasing is classified as forward biasing and

reverse biasing of a diode.

Forward Bias: When the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the p-type and the

negative terminal to the n-type of the PN – junction diode, then the bias is said to be forward

bias. A p-n junction with forward bias is shown in the figure 1.1.

When the p-n junction is forward biased, as long as the applied voltage is less than the

barrier potential, there cannot be any conduction.

When the applied voltage becomes more than the barrier potential, the depletion region is

completely eliminated and the current flows through the junction called the forward current.

The forward potential at which the potential barrier across the junction is completely

eliminated and allows the current to flow through the junction is called cut-in voltage or

threshold voltage of p-n junction diode.

The cut-in voltage is 0.3V for Ge diode, and 0.7V for Si diode.

Reverse Bias: When the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the n-type and the

negative terminal to the p-type of the PN – junction diode, then the bias is said to be reverse bias.

A p-n junction with reverse bias is shown in the figure 1.2.

When the p-n junction is reverse biased the depletion region widens, the barrier potential

across the junction increases. The polarities of the barrier potential are same as that of the

applied reverse voltage.

In reverse bias condition, there is a flow of minority charge carriers across the junction,

and constitutes a small current called reverse saturation current. Reverse saturation current is

very small of the order of few microamperes for Ge and few nanoamperes for Si p-n junction

diodes.The generation of minority charge carriers depends on the temperature and not on the

applied reverse bias voltage.

The reverse saturation current increases by 7% per degree centigrade change in

temperature for both Si and Ge diodes. The reverse saturation current doubles for every 10˚C rise

in temperature.

Procedure:1. Construct the circuit as shown in the Fig1.1. Use 1N 4007 diode and forward

bias it.

2. Increase the power supply voltage gradually in steps and note the voltmeter and

The operation of the zener diode is same as that of ordinary p-n diode under forward

biased condition.

In reverse biased condition, the diode carries reverse saturation current till the reverse

voltage applied is less than the reverse breakdown voltage.

When the reverse voltage exceeds the reverse breakdown voltage, the current through it changes

drastically but the voltage across it remains almost constant. Such a breakdown region is a

normal operating region for a zener diode.

The zener diode can be used as a voltage regulator.

Procedure:

1. Construct the circuit as shown in the Fig 2.1.Use BZX 5.1V diode and

forward bias it.

2. Increase the power supply voltage graduvally in steps and note the voltmeter and

Ammeter readings in Table -3.

3. Reverse-bias the diode,construct the circuit as shown in Fig 2.2.

Fig 3.2:Half Wave Rectifier With Filter

THEORY:

During positive half-cycle of the input voltage, the diode D1 is in forward bias and

conducts through the load resistor R1. Hence the current produces an output voltage across the

load resistor R1, which has the same shape as the +ve half cycle of the input voltage. During the

negative half-cycle of the input voltage, the diode is reverse biased and there is no current

through the circuit. i.e., the voltage across R1 is zero.

The net result is that only the +ve half cycle of the input voltage appears across the load.

The average value of the half wave rectified o/p voltage is the value measured on dc voltmeter.

For practical circuits, transformer coupling is usually provided for two reasons.

1. The voltage can be stepped-up or stepped-down, as needed.

2. The ac source is electrically isolated from the rectifier. Thus preventing shock hazards in

the secondary circuit.

Procedure:

1. Construct the circuit as shown in Fig3.1Use the diode 1N 4007 and load

Resistance, RL.

2. Observe the voltage across the secondary of the transformer and across the out put

terminals 1-1’ by using CRO.

3. Remove the Load resistance from 1-1’ and note down no-load voltage,VNL

4. Vary the load RL in convenient steps and note the ac voltage and dc voltage

across the load.

5. Calculate ripple factor and regulation for different loads.

Fig 4.2:Full wave Rectifier With Filter

THEORY:

The circuit of a center-tapped full wave rectifier uses two diodes D1&D2. During

positive half cycle of secondary voltage (input voltage), the diode D1 is forward biased and D2is

reverse biased. The diode D1 conducts and current flows through load resistor RL. During

negative half cycle, diode D2 becomes forward biased and D1 reverse biased. Now, D2 conducts

and current flows through the load resistor RL in the same direction. There is a continuous

current flow through the load resistor RL, during both the half cycles and will get unidirectional

current as show in the model graph. The difference between full wave and half wave rectification

is that a full wave rectifier allows unidirectional (one way) current to the load during the entire

360 degrees of the input signal and half-wave rectifier allows this only during one half cycle

(180 degree).

Procedure:

1. Construct the circuit as shown in Fig 4.1Use the diodes 1N 4007 and load

resistance RL.

2.Observe the voltage across the secondary of the transformer and across the out

put terminals 1-1’ by using CRO.

3. Remove the Load resistance from 1-1’ and note down no-load voltage,VNL

4. Vary the load RL in convenient steps and note the ac voltage and dc voltage

across the load.

5. Calculate ripple factor and regulation for different loads.

Fig:5.2 Transistor CB Output characteristics

Theory:

In CB Configuration, the input signal is applied between emitter and base while the

output is taken from collector and base. As the base is common to input and output circuits,

hence the name common-base configuration.

Input Characteristics: To determine the input characteristics, the collector-base voltage VCB is

kept constant at zero volts and the emitter current IE is increased from zero in suitable equal steps

by increasing VEB. A curve is drawn between emitter current IE and emitter-base voltage VEB at

constant collector-base voltage VCB. The input characteristics thus obtained are shown in figure

5.2.

Output Characteristics: To determine the output characteristics, the emitter current IE is kept

constant at a suitable value by adjusting the emitter-base voltage VEB. Then VCB is increased in

suitable equal steps and the collector current IC is noted for each value of IE. This is repeated for

different fixed values of IE. Now the curves of IC versus VCB are plotted for constant values of IE

and the output characteristics thus obtained is shown in figure 5.3.

Procedure:

For plotting input characteristics:

1.To construct the circuit as shown in the Fig5.1.

2.Fix VCB=open=0V,by varying the out put power supply and note that input power

supply should be in minimum during VCB kept constant.

Fig:6.2 Transistor CE Output characteristics

Theory:

In Common Emitter configuration, the input signal is applied between base and emitter

and the output is taken from collector and emitter. As emitter is common to input and output

circuits, hence the name common emitter configuration.

Input Characteristics: To determine the input characteristics, the collector to emitter voltage is

kept constant at zero volts and base current is increased from zero in equal steps by increasing

VBE in the circuit. The value of VBE is noted for each setting of IB. this procedure is repeated for

higher fixed values of VCE, and the curves of IB Vs VBE

are drawn. The input characteristics thus

obtained are shown in figure 6.2

Output Characteristics: To determine the output characteristics, the base current IB is kept

constant at a suitable value by adjusting base-emitter voltage, VBE. The magnitude of collector0-

emitter voltage VCE is increased in suitable equal steps from zero and the collector current IC is

noted for each setting of VCE. Now the curves of IC Vs VCE are plotted for different constant

values of IB. The output characteristics thus obtained are shown in figure 6.3.

Procedure:

For plotting input characteristics:

1.To construct the circuit as shown in the Fig6.1.

2.Fix VCE=open=1V,by varying the out put power supply and note that input power

supply should be in minimum during VCE kept constant.

3.Now by varying input power supply ,change VBE in convenient steps and note

down the base current IB for each step.

4.Repeat steps 2 and 3 for different constant values of VCE=3V .

Fig:7.1 JFET

Theory:

A FET is a three terminal device, having the characteristics of high input impedance and

less noise, the Gate to Source junction of the FET s always reverse biased. In response to small

applied voltage from drain to source, the n-type bar acts as sample resistor, and the drain current

increases linearly with VDS. With increase in ID the ohmic voltage drop between the source and

the channel region reverse biases the junction and the conducting position of the channel begins

to remain constant. The VDS at this instant is called ―pinch of voltage‖.

If the gate to source voltage (VGS) is applied in the direction to provide additional reverse

Fig 9.2 Input resistance measurement Fig 9.3 Output resistance measurement

THEORY:

The practical circuit of CE amplifier is shown in the figure. It consists of different circuit

components. The functions of these components are as follows:

1. Biasing Circuit: The resistances R1, R2 and RE form the voltage divider biasing circuit for

the CE amplifier. It sets the proper operating point for the CE amplifier.

2. Input capacitor C1: This capacitor couples the signal to the transistor. It blocks any dc

component present in the signal and passes only ac signal for amplification. Because of this,

biasing conditions are maintained constant.

3. Emitter Bypass Capacitor CE: An emitter bypass capacitor CE is connected in parallel with

the emitter resistance, RE to provide a low reactance path to the amplified ac signal. If it is not

inserted, the amplified ac signal passing through RE will cause a voltage drop across it. This will

reduce the output voltage, reducing the gain of the amplifier.

4. Output Coupling Capacitor C2: The coupling capacitor C2 couples the output of the

amplifier to the load or to the next stage of the amplifier. It blocks dc and passes only ac part of

the amplified signal.

Operation:

The CE amplifier provides high gain &wide frequency response. The emitter lead is

common to both input & output circuits and is grounded. The emitter-base circuit is forward

biased. The collector current is controlled by the base current rather than emitter current. The

input signal is applied to base terminal of the transistor and amplifier output is taken across

collector terminal. A very small change in base current produces a much larger change in

collector current.

When +VE half-cycle is fed to the input circuit, it opposes the forward bias of the circuit

which causes the collector current to decrease, it decreases the voltage more –VE. Thus when

input cycle varies through a -VE half-cycle, increases the forward bias of the circuit, which

causes the collector current to increases thus the output signal is common emitter amplifier is in

out of phase with the input signal.

Procedure:

1. Construct the circuit as shown in Fig.9.1

2. Connect the function generator to the input terminals.

3. Connect the output terminals to the C.R.O.

4. Set the Amplitude of input Sine Wave signal, VS = 40mV at 1KHz frequency.

5. Measure the input voltage, VI and output voltage ,VO of the amplifier with the

help of C.R.O. Note the voltages.

6. Calculate Output Voltage,VO

Voltage gain = ---------------------

Input Voltage,VI

7. Find the Voltage across the known resistance connected in series with the signal

source i.e; 2.2K (VS-VI). The Input current II is (VS-VI)/2.2K.The output current IO

equal to VO/2.2K.

8. Input impedance is obtained by taking the ratio between input voltages, VI i.e; the

Voltage across 10K ohm and input Current (the calculation of which is included in

the above step -7).

9. To obtain the output resistance, measure the voltage across the output terminals

Without connecting any load. The voltage is the open circuit voltage. Keep the

Input voltage constant. Connect different valued resistors across the output

terminals until you get half the open circuit voltage. This resistance setting gives

the output resistance.

Fig 10.2 Input resistance measurement Fig 10.3 Output resistance measurement

Theory:

In CC amplifier, the output is taken across the emitter terminal. Since the emitter is the

output terminal, it can be noted that the output voltage from a common collector circuit is same

as its input voltage. CC amplifier is also called emitter follower. The characteristics of the CC

amplifier are: High current gain, voltage gain of approximately unity, power gain of

approximately equal to current gain, larger input impedance and small output impedance.

The CC amplifier is widely used as a buffer stage between a high impedance source and a

low impedance load.

Procedure:

Frequency response characteristics:

1. Construct the circuit as shown in Fig.10.1

2. Connect the function generator to the input terminals.

3. Connect the output terminals to the C.R.O.

4. Set the Amplitude of input Sine Wave signal, VS = 40mV at 1KHz frequency.

5. Measure the input voltage, VI and output voltage ,VO of the amplifier with the

help of C.R.O. Note the voltages.

6. Calculate Output Voltage,VO

7. Find the Voltage across the known resistance connected in series with the signal

source i.e; 2.2K (VS-VI). The Input current II is (VS-VI)/2.2K.The output current IO

equal to VO/560Ω.

8. Input impedance is obtained by taking the ratio between input voltages, VI i.e; the

Voltage across 10K ohm and input Current (the calculation of which is included in

the above step -7).

9. To obtain the output resistance, measure the voltage across the output terminals

Without connecting any load. The voltage is the open circuit voltage. Keep the

Input voltage constant. Connect different valued resistors across the output

terminals until you get half the open circuit voltage. This resistance setting gives

the output resistance.

A field-effect transistor (FET) is a type of transistor commonly used for weak-signal

amplification (for example, for amplifying wireless (signals). The device can amplify analog or

digital signals. It can also switch DC or function as an oscillator. In the FET, current flows along

a semiconductor path called the channel. At one end of the channel, there is an electrode called

the source. At the other end of the channel, there is an electrode called the drain. The physical

diameter of the channel is fixed, but its effective electrical diameter can be varied by the

application of a voltage to a control electrode called the gate. Field-effect transistors exist in two

major classifications. These are known as the junction FET (JFET) and the metal-oxide-

semiconductor FET (MOSFET). The junction FET has a channel consisting of N-type

semiconductor (N-channel) or P-type semiconductor (P-channel) material; the gate is made of

the opposite semiconductor type. In P-type material, electric charges are carried mainly in the

form of electron deficiencies called holes. In N-type material, the charge carriers are primarily

electrons. In a JFET, the junction is the boundary between the channel and the gate. Normally,

this P-N junction is reverse-biased (a DC voltage is applied to it) so that no current flows

between the channel and the gate. However, under some conditions there is a small current

through the junction during part of the input signal cycle. The FET has some advantages and

some disadvantages relative to the bipolar transistor. Field-effect transistors are preferred for

weak-signal work, for example in wireless, communications and broadcast receivers. They are

also preferred in circuits and systems requiring high impedance. The FET is not, in general, used

for high-power amplification, such as required in large wireless communications broadcast

transmitters.

Circuit diagram:

Procedure:

1. As per the design specifications, connect the circuit as shown.

2. Set the frequency of I/P signal at 5 KHz and increase the amplitude, till O/P gets

distorted. The value of I/P signal is maximum signal handling capacity.

3. Set I/P signal at a constant value, less than the maximum signal handling capacity, vary

frequency in the range 50Hz to 1MHz and find O/P voltage for each and every frequency.

4. Calculate voltage gain at each and every frequency.

5. Plot the frequency versus gain and determine fH and fL. 6. Calculate bandwidth fH - fL.

7. Procedure for measuring input impedance: Set the signal generator frequency at 2KHz

and measure Vs and Vi. Then Ii = Vs - Vi / RS. I/P

impedance = Vi / Ii

is its O/P resistance.

Theory:

A Uni-junction Transistor (UJT) is an electronic semiconductor device that has only one

junction. The UJT Uni-junction Transistor (UJT) has three terminals, an emitter (E) and two

bases (B1 and B2). The base is formed by lightly doped n-type bar of silicon. Two ohmic

contacts B1 and B2 are attached at its ends. The emitter is of p-type and it is heavily doped. The

resistance between B1 and B2, when the emitter is open-circuit is called inter-base resistance.

The original uni-junction transistor, or UJT, is a simple device that is essentially a bar of N type

semiconductor material into which P type material has been diffused somewhere along its

length. The 2N2646 is the most commonly used version of the UJT.

Circuit symbol

The UJT is biased with a positive voltage between the two bases. This causes a potential drop

along the length of the device. When the emitter voltage is driven approximately one diode

voltage above the voltage at the point where the P diffusion (emitter) is, current will begin to

flow from the emitter into the base region. Because the base region is very lightly doped, the

additional current (actually charges in the base region) causes (conductivity modulation) which

reduces the resistance of the portion of the base between the emitter junction and the B2

terminal.

This reduction in resistance means that the emitter junction is more forward biased, and

so even more current is injected. Overall, the effect is a negative resistance at the emitter

terminal. This is what makes the UJT useful, especially in simple oscillator circuits. When the

emitter voltage reaches Vp, the current starts to increase and the emitter voltage starts to

decrease. This is represented by negative slope of the characteristics which is referred to as the

negative resistance region, beyond the valley point; RB1 reaches minimum value and this

region, VEB proportional to IE.

Procedure:

1. Connect the circuit diagram as shown in the Fig :8.1

2. Set the base voltage VBB to 3V by varying the base power supply.

3. Vary the emitter power supply VBB , set the input emitter voltage VE in convenient

steps and correspondingly note the emitter current IE at each step.

4. epeat steps 2 and 3 for VBB=5V and VBB=10V.

5. Tabulate the readings as in Table-15.
