3.1 COMPLEMENTARY TRANSISTORS PAIR

Goal

: To study the complementary transistor pair. Practice 1: Complementary transistors pair

Instrument

The board of Edibon C,B,E M4 Semiconductor II(Circuit 1). Multitester / Multimeter. Power Supply. Jumper.

Figure 2.6.1

Steps : 1. Prepare all instrument that you need. 2. Verify that all the switches of the module are upwards, or what is the same, in the normal position (N). 3. Feed the board with the switch of the ECB-100 or with an independent power supply. 4. Measure the base voltage of the transistor TR1 (point 1.2), with a voltmeter, using point 1.13. as ground.

5. In the same way, fill in table 2.6.1 with the measurements, which are indicated in it.

This way, we have the circuit data when we do not introduce any input signal in the circuit.

C l. l. Which is the voltage in the point 1.10? Answer :

The objective of these measurements is to see that the circuit is balanced around 0 volts in points 1.6 and 1.7. This will not point exactly to 0 volts due to the tolerances and variations of the components. Steps : 1. connect a link between the socket points 1.5 and 1.14. 2. To introduce a variable voltage between 0 volts and +12 volts, using the potentiometer of the ECB100 base unit or an independent power supply. 3. With the voltmeter we adjust the input voltage to the data of table 2.6.2. 4. Measure between points 1.6 and 1.13.

C 1.2 Which is the output voltage when the input signal is +6 volts? Answer Steps : 1. For all the values in which the input voltage is negative, it is necessary the link to be placed between points 1.15 and 1,. 2. Eliminating the link between points 1.14 and 1.5. 3. To change the negative voltage we will use the potentiometer of the EBC-100 base unit destined for -12 volts or FACO. 4. Once we have filled in the previous table, we will make a diagram with such values, representing the input voltage compared to the output voltage. :

Practice 2: Transistors pair with alternating signal If we apply an alternating signal, the circuit will amplify the positive cycles and the negative cycles. For this practice, we use the same circuit than before, making the following connections: - Link between points 1.7 and 1.8. - Link between points l.5 and 116. - Channel 1 of the oscilloscope to point 1.6. - Channel 2 of the oscilloscope to point 1.7.
