DESIGN PROCEDURE:

c)

THEORY:
The amplifier stage is self biased with a capacitor by passed source resistor (Rs)
and drain bias resistor (Rd). the expression for voltage gain of the amplifier is given by Av
=gm. rl. The feedback network consists of three identical RC sections. Each section
produces a phase shift of 60. Therefore the net phase shift of the feedback network is
180 degree. Since the amplifier stage also introduces a phase shift of 180, therefore total
phase shift is 360 or 0. For the variable frequency oscillators, the three capacitors are
ganged and varied simultaneously. When the circuit is energized by switching on the
supply, the circuit starts oscillating. The oscillations may start due to the minor variation
in dc supply or inherent noise.

2) THEORY:
Astable multivibrator consists of two common emitter amplifying stages.When the d.
c. power supply is switched ON (t=0) one of the transistor will start conducting more than the
other due to some imbalance in circuit. Then because of the other due to some positive
feedback, the transistor Q1 will be driven into saturation and Q2 to cut off. Thus at t>0 Q1 is
ON and Q2 is OFF. During t>0, capacitor C1 is charging and VB2 increases. As it increases
above cut-in-voltage, Q2 starts conducting at t>t1. As the transistor Q2 goes into saturation,
VC falls to VCE(sat). Thus at t>t1, Q1 is OFF and Q2 is ON. During t>t1, VB1 rises
exponentially with time constant. At T=t2, VB1 reaches cutin level and a reverse transition
take place. It is used to generate square waveform.
PROCEDURE:
The components are connected as per the circuit diagram.
The DC supply is switched ON.
The output voltage and the time period is measured across transistors T1 and T2 at
both the base and the collector.

VIVA QUESTIONS:
1. What is a linear waveform-shaping circuit?
The process by which the shape of a nonsinusoidal signal is changed by passing
the signal through the network consisting of linear elements is called Linear Wave
Shaping.
2. What is meant by multivibrator?
Multivibrators are two stage switching circuits in which the output of the first
stage is fed to the input of the second state and vice-versa. The outputs of two stages are
complementary.
3. Define Astable multivibrator.
Astable multivibrator is a multivibrator in which neither state is stable. There are
two temporary states. The circuit changes state continuously from one quasi stables state
to another at regular intervals without any triggering. This generates continuous square
waveform without any external signal.

2) THEORY:
Monostble multivibrator is also called as one shot or univibrator and can be used to
generate a gating pulse, whose width can be controlled. The monostable multivibrator
provides a single pulse of desired duration in response to an external trigger. The external
trigger causes the circuit to go to the quasi stable state. After a certain interval of time, the
circuit returns to its original state. It consists of two NPN transistors. In this case, when a
pulse is applied to the input circuit, the circuit state is changed abruptly to unstable state for a
determined time after which the circuit returned to its original state automatically. The two
outputs are the complement of each other i.e when one of the output is at VCC level, the other
is at VCE(sat) level. The monostable multivibrators are used for the generation of well
defined pulses, the logic design of pulse delay, variable pulse width, etc. The width or
duration of the pulse obtained at the collector or output of either transistor of the monostable
multivibrator is given by the expression t=0.69 RC.

2) THEORY:
In class C amplifier, the output current flows only for one half of the cycle of the
input signal. The transistor dissipates no power with zero input signal. The average current
drawn by the circuit in class C is smaller than that in class A. Complementary symmetry
amplifier requireds neither an input nor an output transformer. This arrangement uses
transistors having complementary symmetry in the emitter follower configuration. The term
complementary means that it uses two identical transistors one NPN and the other PNP. The
term symmetry means that biasing resistors are equal. This amplifier circuit has a unity gain
because of the emitter follower configuration. Moreover there is no phase inversion of the
output signal. The split supply used in the circuit gives us an advantage that the dc component
of the output voltage can be made zero. Thus the only ac component of the power is available
across the load resistor.
3) PROCEDURE:
1. The components are connected as shown in the circuit diagram.
2. The input voltage is given using function generator.
3. The load resistance is varied using the decade resistance box and output voltage is
measured and readings are tabulated

low frequencies. It implies that the output voltage is the differential of the input.
2. What is meant by clippers?
The circuit with which the waveform is shaped by removing a portion of the input
signal without distorting the removing part of the alternating waveform is called a clipper.
3. What is meant by clampers?
Clamping network shifts (clamp) a signal to a different d.c level, i.e., it introduces
a d.c level to an a.c signal.Hence,the clamping network is known as d.c restorer.

VIVA QUESTIONS:
1. What is unilateralisation?
It is the phenomenon by which a signal can be transmitted from the input to the output
alone and not viceversa. In an unilateralised amplifier both resistive and reactive effects are
cancelled.
2. What is stagger tuned amplifier?
In this configuration one or more tuned amplifiers are cascaded each amplifier stage is
tuned to different frequencies. This results in decreased gain and increased bandwidth.
3. What is the effect of Q on stability?
Higher the value of Q,provides better selectivity, but smaller bandwidth and larger
gain. Hence it provides less stability.
4. What is meant by unloaded and loaded Q of tank circuit.[ APR 2003 ]
Unloaded Q is the ratio of stored energy to dissipated energy in a reactor or resonator.
The loaded Q (or) QL of a resonator is determined by how tightly the resonator is coupled to
its terminations.

used to convert incoming signal to a lower frequency where it is easier to obtain the high
gain and selectivity required.
Mixer circuits are used to translate signal frequency to some lower frequency or to
some higher frequency. When it is used to translate signal to lower frequency it is called
down converter. When it is used to translate signal to higher frequency, it is called up
converter.
2. Mention the need for stagger-tuned amplifier.
The double tuned amplifier gives greater 3 db bandwidth having steeper sides and
flat
top. But alignment of double tuned amplifier is difficult. To overcome this problem two
single tuned amplifiers are cascaded.
3. What is principle of Hazel tine neutralization?
Hazel tine introduced a circuit in which the troublesome effect of the collector to
base
capacitance of the transistor was neutralized by introducing a signal which cancels the
signal coupled through the collector to base capacitance.

Transforme
r (ii)
Rectifier.

2. What is ripple factor()?


Ripple factor () may be defined as the ratio of the root mean square (rms) value of the
ripple voltage to the absolute value of the dc component of the output voltage, usually
expressed as a percentage. However, ripple voltage is also commonly expressed as the
peak-to-peak value. This is largely because peak-to-peak is both easier to measure on an
oscilloscope and is simpler to calculate theoretically. Filter circuits intended for the
reduction of ripple are usually called smoothing
