Resistor values - the resistor colour code Resistance is measured in ohms. The symbol for ohm is an Colour Code omega . 1 is quite small so resistor values are often given in k and M . 1 k = 1000 1 M = 1000000 . Resistor values are normally shown using colored bands. Each colour represents a number as shown in the table.
. The Resistor Colour Black Brown Red Orange Yellow Green Blue

Number 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Most resistors have 4 bands:

The first band gives the first digit. Violet The second band gives the second digit. Grey The third band indicates the number of zeros. The fourth band is used to shows the tolerance (precision) White of the resistor

This resistor has red (2), violet (7), yellow (4 zeros) and gold bands. So its value is 270000 = 270 k . On circuit diagrams the is usually omitted and the value is written 270K. Small value resistors (less than 10 ohm) The standard colour code cannot show values of less than 10 . To show these small values two special colours are used for the third band: gold which means 0.1 and silver which means 0.01. The first and second bands represent the digits as normal. For example: red, violet, gold bands represent 27 0.1 = 2.7 blue, green, silver bands represent 56 0.01 = 0.56 Tolerance of resistors (fourth band of colour code) The tolerance of a resistor is shown by the fourth band of the colour code. Tolerance is the precision of the resistor and it is given as a percentage. For example a 390 resistor with a tolerance of 10% will have a value within 10% of 390 , between 390 - 39 = 351 and 390 + 39 = 429 (39 is 10% of 390). A special colour code is used for the fourth band tolerance: silver 10%, gold 5%, red 2%, brown 1%. If no fourth band is shown the tolerance is 20%.

STUDY OF CATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE (CRO) The cathode ray oscilloscope is a type of most versatile electronic measuring test equipment available. It provides a visual presentation of any waveform applied to the input terminal. That means it allows signal voltages to be viewed, as a two-dimensional graph in the given span of time. The Y- axis of the graph represents voltage and X- axis represents time. We can measure following parameters (quantities) using the CRO: 1. DC or AC voltage (peak voltage, frequency, pulse width, 2. Time (t=1/f), 3. Phase relationship (phase difference), 4. Waveform calculation (Rise time, fall time, on time, off-time Distortion, delay time, etc.,) We can also measure non-electrical physical quantities like pressure, strain, temperature, acceleration, etc., by converting into electrical quantities using a transducer.

Major blocks:
1. Cathode ray tube (CRT) 2. Vertical amplifier 3. Horizontal amplifier 4. Sweep generator 5. Trigger circuit 6. Associated power supply.. 1. The cathode ray tube is the heart of the CRO providing visual display of an input signal waveform. The CRT is enclosed in an evacuated glass envelope to permit the electron beam to traverse in the tube easily. The main functional units of CRO are Electron gun assembly Deflection plate unit & Screen. 2. Vertical Amplifier amplifies the signal at its input prior to the signal being applied to the vertical deflection plates. It is the main factor in determining the bandwidth and sensitivity of an oscilloscope. Vertical sensitivity is a measure of how much the electron beam will be deflected for a specified input signal. On the front panel of the oscilloscope, one can see a knob attached to a

P.S.R.Engineering College, Sivakasi

(EE37-Electronic Devices and Circuits Lab)

rotary switch labeled volts/division. The rotary switch is electrically connected to the input attenuation network. The setting of the rotary switch indicates what amplitude signal is required to deflect the beam vertically by one division.

3. Horizontal amplifier amplifies the signal at its input prior to the signal being applied to the horizontal deflection plates. Under normal mode of operation, the horizontal amplifier will amplify the sweep generator input. When the CRO is being used in the X-Y mode, the horizontal amplifier will amplify the signal applied to the horizontal input terminal. Although the vertical amplifier mush be able to faithfully reproduce low-amplitude and high frequency signal with fast rise-time, the horizontal amplifier is only required to provide a faithful reproduction of the sweep signal which has a relatively high amplitude and slow rise time. 4. Sweep generator and Trigger circuit (These two units) form the Signal Synchronization unit of the CRO. Sweep Generator develops a voltage at the horizontal deflection plate that increase linearly with time. 5. Associated Power Supply: The input signal may come from an external source when the trigger selector switch is set to EXT or from low amplitude AC voltage at line frequency. When set for INT (internal triggering), the trigger circuit receives its inputs from the vertical amplifier.

Major Blocks in a Practical CRT:


A CRO consists of a cathode ray tube (CRT) and additional control knobs. The main parts of a CRT are:

P.S.R.Engineering College, Sivakasi

(EE37-Electronic Devices and Circuits Lab)

i. Electron gun assembly. ii. Deflection plate assembly. iii. Fluorescent screen. Electron Gun Assembly: Cathodes, intensity grid, focus grid, and accelerating anode together known as electron gun. The electron gun generates a sharp beam of electrons, which are accelerated to high velocity fired along the cathode ray tube. This focused beam of electrons strike the fluorescent screen with sufficient energy to cause a luminous spot (light) on the screen. Deflection plate assembly: This part consists of two plates in which one pair of plates is placed horizontally and other of plates is placed vertically. The signal under test is applied to vertical deflecting plates. The horizontal deflection plates are connected to a built-in ramp generator, which moves the luminous spot periodically in a horizontal direction from left to right over the screen. Horizontal and vertical deflecting plates control the path of the electron beam. An electric field between the first pair of plates deflects the electrons horizontally, and an electric field between the second pair deflects them vertically. If no deflecting fields are present, the electrons travel in a straight line from the hole in the accelerating anode to the center of the screen, where they produce a bright spot. In general-purpose oscilloscopes, amplifier circuits are needed to increase the input signal to the voltage levels required to operate the tube because the signals measured using CRO are typically small. There are amplifier sections for both vertical and horizontal deflection of the beam. These two deflection plates give stationary appearance to the waveform on the screen. CRO operates on voltage. Since the deflection of the electron beam is directly proportional to the deflecting voltage, the CRT may be used as a linear measuring device. The voltage being measured is applied to the vertical plates through an iterative network, whose propagation time corresponds to the velocity of electrons, thereby synchronizing the voltage applied to the vertical plate with the velocity of the beam. Synchronization of input signal: The sweep generator produces a saw tooth waveform, which is used to synchronize the applied voltage to obtain a stationary applied signal. This requires that the

P.S.R.Engineering College, Sivakasi

(EE37-Electronic Devices and Circuits Lab)

time base be operated at a submultiples frequency of the signal under measurement. If synchronization is not done, the pattern is not stationary, but appears to drift across the screen in a random fashion. Internal synchronization: This trigger is obtained from the time base generator to synchronize the signal. External synchronization: An external trigger source can also be used to synchronize the signal being measured. Auto Triggering Mode: The time base used in this case in a selfoscillating condition, i.e., it gives an output even in the absence of any Y-input. The advantage of this mode is that the beam is visible on the screen under all conditions, including the zero input. When the input exceeds a certain magnitude then the internal free running oscillator locks on to the frequency. Control Grid Regulates the number of electrons that reach the anode and hence the brightness of the spot on the screen. The control grid, which has a negative potential, controls the electron flow from the cathode and thus controls the number of electron directed to the screen. A cathode containing an oxide coating is heated indirectly by a filament resulting in the release of electrons from the cathode surface. Once the electron passes the control grid, they are focused into a tight beam and accelerated to a higher velocity by focusing and accelerating anodes. The high velocity and well-defined electron beam then passed through two sets of deflection plates. An evacuated glass envelope with a phosphorescent screen which glows visibly when struck by electron beam OPERATION: The four main parts of the oscilloscope CRT are designed to create and direct an electron beam to a screen to form an image. The oscilloscope links to a circuit that directly connects to the vertical deflection plates while the horizontal plates have linearly increasing charge to form a plot of the circuit voltage over time. In an operating cycle, the heater gives electrons in the cathode enough energy to escape. The electrons are attracted to the accelerating anode and pulled through a control grid that regulates the number of electrons in the beam, a focusing anode that controls the width of 6

P.S.R.Engineering College, Sivakasi

(EE37-Electronic Devices and Circuits Lab)

the beam, and the accelerating anode itself. The vertical and horizontal deflection plates create electric fields that bend the beam of electrons. The electrons finally hit the fluorescent screen, which absorbs the energy from the electron beam and emits it in the form of light to display an image at the end of the glass tube. PRACTICE PROCEDURE: 1. Switch on the CRO. Turn the AC-GND-DC to GND. Check if a horizontal trace appears after the CRO warms up. Set the trace centrally in position on the screen. 2. Become accustomed to the operation of the oscilloscope. Move the focus, intensity, and position controls to see the effects produced. MEASUREMENT OF FREQUENCY: 3. Connect the signal generator output to one vertical input of the CRO. 4. Set the function generator in sinusoidal mode and adjust the amplitude of the signal so that it just about fills the screen. 5. Set the signal generator dial at any particular frequency and move the dial until you have only a few complete cycles across the CRO face in the horizontal direction. 6. Measure the period T of the signal. To do so, measure (in divisions & subdivisions) the horizontal distance between two successive peaks and multiply this distance b button which is the scale of the time axis. Record your data. 7. This gives the period T of the AC signal; its frequency is then f = 1/T. MEASUREMENT OF VOLTAGE: 8. Use the volts/div selector to convert vertical readings on the oscilloscope into actual voltages. 9. In measuring the voltage, always measure the value from the center of the trace to its peak. This "peak voltage" is half the peakto-peak voltage, which is the full height of the trace on the CRO screen.

THEORY: A PN junction diode conducts only in one direction. It is an example of unilateral element. The V-I characteristics of the diode are curve between voltage across the diode and current through the diode. When external voltage is zero, circuit is open and the potential barrier does not allow the current to flow. Therefore, the circuit current is zero. When P-type (Anode is connected to +ve terminal and N type (cathode) is connected to ve terminal of the supply voltage, is known as forward bias. The potential barrier is reduced, when diode is in the forward biased condition. At some forward voltage, the potential barrier altogether eliminated and current starts flowing through the diode and also in the circuit. The diode is said to be in ON state. The current increases with increasing forward voltage. When N-type (cathode) is connected to +ve terminal and P-type (Anode) is connected to the ve terminal of the supply voltage is known as reverse bias and the potential barrier across the junction increases. Therefore, the junction resistance becomes very high and a very small current (reverse saturation current) flows in the circuit. The diode is said to be in OFF state. The reverse bias current is due to minority charge carriers. An ideal PN junction Diode is a two terminal polarity sensitive device that has zero resistance (diode conducts) when it is forward biased and infinite resistance (diode doesnt conduct) when it is reverse biased. Due to this characteristic, the diode finds number of applications as 1. Rectifiers in DC power supply, 2. Switch in digital circuits, 3. Clamping, Clipping circuits network used in TV Receiver, 4. Demodulation (detector) circuits.

THEORY: A zener diode is heavily doped p-n junction diode, specially made to operate in the break down region. A p-n junction diode normally does not conduct when reverse biased. But if the reverse bias is increased, at a particular voltage it starts conducting heavily. This voltage is called Break down Voltage. High current through the diode can permanently damage the device to avoid high current, In Zener diode the reverse breakdown occurs at low voltages, so the flow of heavy current can be avoided. Once the diode starts conducting it maintains almost constant voltage across the terminals whatever may be the current through it, i.e., it has very low dynamic resistance. It is used in voltage regulators.

THEORY: A transistor is a three terminal device. The terminals are emitter, base, collector. In common emitter configuration, input voltage is applied between base and emitter terminals and output is taken across the collector and emitter terminals. Therefore the emitter terminal is common to both input and output. The input characteristics resemble that of a forward biased diode curve. This is expected since the Base-Emitter junction of the transistor is forward biased. As compared to CB arrangement IB increases less rapidly with VBE. Therefore input resistance of CE circuit is higher than that of CB circuit. The output characteristics are drawn between Ic and VCE at constant IB. the collector current varies with VCE unto few volts only. After this the collector current becomes almost constant, and independent of VCE. The value of VCE up to which the collector current changes with VCE is known as Knee voltage. The transistor always operated in the region above Knee voltage, I C is always constant and is approximately equal to IB.

THEORY: Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) is a three-terminal

semiconductor device capable of amplifying an ac signal. The three terminals are called the emitter, the base, and the collector. The device is made up three layers of p-type and n-type semiconductor material. BJTs consist of a thin base layer (either P- or N-type) sandwiched between two layers of the opposite type material. Thus, BJTs are either NPN or PNP. They are somewhat like two

interconnected, back to- back diodes, with two diode junctions. In CB configuration, the base is common to both input (emitter) and output (collector). For normal operation, the E-B junction is forward biased and C-B junction is reverse biased. The input characteristics are plots of IE versus VBE at constant values of VCB. These characteristics will look like diode characteristics, particularly if the collector is shorted to the emitter and the emitter-base junction is forward biased. The output characteristics, often called the

collector characteristics, are plots of IC versus VCB at constant values of IE.

THEORY: A Uni-Junction Transistor (UJT) is an electronic

semiconductor device that has only one junction. The UJT UniJunction Transistor (UJT) has three terminals emitter (E) and two bases (B1 and B2). The base is formed by lightly doped n-type bar of silicon. The emitter is of p-type and it is heavily doped. The 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 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.

PROCEDURE: 1. Identify the terminals of the transistor given and set up the circuit on breadboard as shown in figure. 2. Wire the circuit as shown in figure. By keeping the Base Base voltage (VBB) constant and varying the Emitter Voltage

ammeter readings are noted down. 3. The above procedure shall be repeated for different VBB and current readings can be taken. 4. VI characteristics curves were drawn.

RESULT: Thus the V-I characteristics of the UJT were obtained and the characteristics curves were plotted.

THEORY: A Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) is 3 terminals consisting of four semiconductor layers forming a PNPN structure. It has three PN junctions namely J1, J2 and J3. There are three terminals called Anode, Cathode and the gate. The SCR resembles the diode electrically, since it conducts the current in one direction only, when forward biased. However the SCR is different from diode because it has an additional gate terminal. This gate is used to turn ON the device.

When the anode is more positive with respect to the cathode, junctions J1&J3 are forward biased and the junctions J2 is reverse biased. Only a small leakage current flows through the device. The device is said to be in the forward blocking state or off state or cutoff state.

SCR Schematic Symbol

SCR Block Construction

When the anode to cathode voltage is increased to break over value, the junction J2 breaks down and device starts conducting (ON state) the anode current must be more than the value known as latching current in order to maintain the device in the ON state. Once SCR starts conducting, it behaves like a conducting diode and gate has no control over the device. The device can be turned off only by bringing the device in below a value known as holding current. The forward voltage drop across the device in the ON state is around one volt. When the cathode voltage is made positive with respect to the anode voltage junction J2 is forward biased and the junction J1 and J3 are reversed biased. The device will be in the reverse blocking state and only small leakage current flows through the device. The device can be turned on at forward voltage less than break over voltage by applying suitable gate current. 41

The voltage across the capacitor increases exponentially and when the capacitor voltage reach the peak point voltage Vp, the UJT starts conducting and the capacitor voltage is discharged rapidly through EB1 and R1. After the peak point voltage of UJT is reached, it provides negative resistance to the discharge path which is useful in the working of the relaxation oscillator.

charge again. This cycle is repeated continuously generating a saw tooth waveform across the capacitor.The inclusion of external resistors R2 and R1 in series with B2 and B1 provides spike waveforms. When the UJT fires, the sudden charge of current through B1 causes drop across R1, which provides positive going spikes. Also, at the time of firing, fall of VEB1 causes I2 to increase rapidly which generates negative going spikes across R2. By

changing the values of capacitance CE or resistance RE, the frequency of the output waveform can be changed as desired, Since these values control the time constant RECE of the capacitor changing circuit. The frequency of oscillation can be obtained by assuming that the capacitor is initially uncharged. f= 1/T = 2.3 RE CE log 10 [1/(1- )] Where,

It has small transparent window, which allows light to strike the PN junction. A photo diode differs from a rectifier diode in a sense that its reverse current increases with the light intensity at the PN junction. When there is no light incident the reverse current is almost negligible and is called the dark current. An increase in the amount of light energy produces an

THEORY:
HALF-WAVE RECTIFIER:

Figure shows a basic half-wave diode rectifier circuit. During the positive half-cycle of the input voltage, the diode is forwardbiased for all instantaneous voltages greater than the diode cutin voltage V. Current flowing through the diode during the positive half-cycle produces approximately a half sine wave of voltages across the load resistor, as shown in the Figure. To simplify our discussions, we will assume that the diode is ideal and that the

peak input voltage is always much larger than the V of the diode. Hence, we assume that the zero of the rectified voltage coincides with the zero of the input voltage. On the negative half-cycle of the input voltage, the diode is reverse-biased. Ignoring the reverse leakage current of the diode, the load current drops to zero, resulting in zero load voltage (output voltage), as shown in Figure. Thus, the diode circuit has rectified the input ac voltage, converting the ac voltage to a dc voltage.

FULL-WAVE RECTIFIER: Figure shows a full-wave bridge rectifier with a load resistor RL and an input sine wave derived from a transformer. During the positive half-cycle of the input voltage, diodes D2 and D3 are forward biased and diodes D1 and D4 are reverse biased. Therefore, terminal A is positive and terminal B is negative, as shown in Figure. During the negative half-cycle, diodes D1 and D4 conduct, and again terminal A is positive and terminal B is negative. Thus, on either half-cycle, the load voltage has the same polarity and the load current is in the same direction, no matter which pair of diodes is conducting. The full-wave rectified signal is shown in Figure, with the Vo being the output voltage. Since the area under the curve of the full-wave rectified signal is twice that of the half-wave rectified signal, the average or dc value of the full-wave rectified signal, Vdc, is twice that of the half-wave rectifier.

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. The input AC signal is applied across the base-emitter terminals and the output signal is taken across the collector emitter terminals. The emitter base junction of a transistor is forward biased by the VBB supply. The collector base junction is reverse biased by the VCC supply. Each capacitor acts like a switch, The band width of the amplifier is calculated from the graph using the expression, 3 dB Bandwidth, BW=f2-f1 Where, f1 is lower cut-off frequency of CE amplifier, and f2i s upper cut-off frequency of CE amplifier which is open to a direct current but shorted to an alternating current. Because of this, a blocking capacitor blocks the direct current. This action isolates DC bias from an AC signal in the circuit. A common emitter amplifier has the following important characteristics Its input resistance is in the range of 1 k to 2 k, which is considered to be moderately low.

Its output resistance is about 50 k and is considered to be moderately large.

It produces very large power gain and is of the order of 10000 or so

The Barkhausen criterion for sustained oscillation is A = 1 where A is the gain of the amplifier and is the feedback factor (gain).The unity gain means signal is in phase. ( If the signal is 1800 out of phase and gain will be -1). RC-Phase shift Oscillator has a CE amplifier followed by three sections of RC phase shift feed-back Networks. The output of the last stage is return to the input of the amplifier. The values of R and C are chosen such that the phase shift of each RC section is 60.Thus The RC ladder network produces a total phase shift of 180 between its input and output voltage for the given frequency. Since CE Amplifier produces 180 phases shift. The total phase shift from the base of the transistor around the circuit and back to the base will be exactly 360 or 0. This satisfies the Barkhausen condition for sustaining

oscillations and total loop gain of this circuit is greater than or equal to 1, this condition used to generate the sinusoidal oscillations.

PROCEDURE: 1. Identify the pin details of BC107 Transistor (or equivalent silicon Transistor such as BC108/547) and test it using a millimeter. Set up the circuit on breadboard as shown in figure. 2.
