4 Regulated Power Supply 0-30V,1A 1

Theory:
To improve gain characteristics of an amplifier, two stages of CE amplifier can be
cascaded. While cascading, the output of one stage is connected to the input of
another stage. If R and C elements are used for coupling, that circuit is named as RC
coupled amplifier.

Each stage of the cascade amplifier should be biased at its designed level. It is
possible to design a multistage cascade in which each stage is separately biased
and coupled to the adjacent stage using blocking or coupling capacitors. In this circuit
each of the two capacitors C1 & C2 isolate the separate bias network by acting as
open circuits to dc and allow only signals of sufficient high frequency to pass through
cascade.

Apparatus Required:
S.No Name of the Specifications Quantity
Component/Equipment
1. Hartley Oscillator Circuit Board ___ 1
2. Cathode Ray Oscilloscope 20MHz 1
3. Decade Inductance Boxes ___ 2

Theory:
In the Hartley oscillator shown in Fig A. Z1, and Z2 are inductors and Z3 is an
capacitor. The resistors R and R2 and RE provide the necessary DC bias to the
transistor. CE is a bypass capacitor CC1 and CC2 are coupling capacitors. The
feedback network consisting of inductors L1 and L2 , Capacitor C determine the
frequency of the oscillator.
When the supply voltage +Vcc is switched ON, a transient current is produced in the
tank circuit, and consequently damped harmonic oscillations are setup in the circuit.
The current in tank circuit produces AC voltages across L1 and L2 . As terminal 3 is
earthed, it will be at zero potential.
If terminal is at positive potential with respect to 3 at any instant, then terminal 2 will
be at negative potential with respect to 3 at the same instant. Thus the phase
difference between the terminals 1 and 2 is always 1800. In the CE mode, the
transistor provides the phase difference of 1800 between the input and output.
Therefore the total phase shift is 3600. The frequency of oscillations is
f = 1/2π√LC where L= L1 + L2.

Theory:
In the Colpitts oscillator shown in fig 1, Z1, and Z2 are capacitors and Z3 is an
inductor. The resistors R and R2 and RE provide the necessary DC bias to the
transistor. CE is a bypass capacitor CC1 and CC2 are coupling capacitors. The
feedback network consisting of capacitors C1 and C2 , inductor L determine the
frequency of the oscillator.

When the supply voltage +Vcc is switched ON, a transient current is produced in the
tank circuit, and consequently damped harmonic oscillations are setup in the circuit.
The current in tank circuit produces AC voltages across C1 and C2 . As terminal 3 is
earthed, it will be at zero potential.
If terminal is at positive potential with respect to 3 at any instant, then terminal 2 will
be at negative potential with respect to 3 at the same instant. Thus the phase
difference between the terminals 1 and 2 is always 1800. In the CE mode, the
transistor provides the phase difference of 1800 between the input and output.

Theory: A regulator is an electronic circuit which maintains a constant output
irrespective of change in input voltage, load resistance and change in temperature.
Series voltage regulator is one type of regulator. If in a voltage regulator circuit , the
control element is connected in series with the load ,then the circuit is called series
voltage regulator circuit. The unregulated d.c voltage is the input to the circuit. The
control element controls the input voltage, that gets to the output. The sampling

Capacitors 0.01µF 1
CRO 20MHz 1

Theory:
The process whereby the form of a non sinusoidal signal is altered by
transmission through a linear network is called “linear wave shaping”. An ideal
low pass circuit is one that allows all the input frequencies below a frequency
called cutoff frequency fc and attenuates all those above this frequency. For
practical low pass circuit (Fig.1) cutoff is set to occur at a frequency where the
gain of the circuit falls by 3 dB from its maximum at very high frequencies the
capacitive reactance is very small, so the output is almost equal to the input and
hence the gain is equal to 1. Since circuit attenuates low frequency signals and
allows high frequency signals with little or no attenuation, it is called a high pass
circuit.

Theory:
The basic action of a clipper circuit is to remove certain portions of the
waveform, above or below certain levels as per the requirements. Thus the circuits
which are used to clip off unwanted portion of the waveform, without distorting the
remaining part of the waveform are called clipper circuits or Clippers. The half wave
rectifier is the best and simplest type of clipper circuit which clips off the
positive/negative portion of the input signal. The clipper circuits are also called limiters
or slicers.

Apparatus required:

Component/Equipment
Transistor BC 107 2
2.2K 2
Resistors
12K 2
Regulated Power Supply 0-30V, 1A 1

Theory:
The circuit diagram of a fixed bias bistable multivibrator using transistors. The output of
each amplifier is direct coupled to the input of the other amplifier. In one of the stable
states transistor Q1 and Q2 is off and in the other stable state. Q1 is off and Q2 is on even
though the circuit is symmetrical; it is not possible for the circuit to remain in a stable
state with both the transistors conducting simultaneously and caring equal currents. The
reason is that if we assume that both the transistors are biased equally and are carrying
equal currents i1 and i2 suppose there is a minute fluctuation in the current i1-let us say it
increases by a small amount .Then the voltage at the collector of q1 decreases. This will
result in a decrease in voltage at the base of q2. So q2 conducts less and i2 decreases
and hence the potential at the collector of q2 increases. This results in an increase in the
base potential of q1.So q1 conducts still more and i1 is further increased and the potential
at the collector of q1 is further decreased, and so on . So the current i1 keeps on
increasing and the current i2 keeps on decreasing till q1 goes in to saturation and q2 goes
in to cut-off. This action takes place because of the regenerative feed –back incorporated
into the circuit and will occur only if the loop gain is greater than one.

Theory:
A monostable multivibrator on the other hand compared to astable, bistable has only one
stable state, the other state being quasi stable state. Normally the multivibrator is in
stable state and when an externally triggering pulse is applied, it switches from the stable
to the quasi stable state. It remains in the quasi stable state for a short duration, but
automatically reverse switches back to its origional stable state without any triggering
pulse.The monostable multivibrator is also referred as ‘one shot’ or ‘uni vibrator’ since
only one triggering signal is required to reverse the original stable state. The duration of
quasi stable state is termed as delay time (or) pulse width (or) gate time.It is denoted
as ‘t’.

fact that the loop gain of the circuit is greater than unity. There are several ways to
adjust the loop gain. One way of adjusting the loop gain is by varying Rc1. Under
quiescent conditions Q1 is OFF and Q2 is ON because it gets the required base drive
from Vcc through Rc1 and R1. So the output voltage is Vo=Vcc-Ic2Rc2 is at its lower

Regulated Power Supply (0-30V),1A 1

Theory:
Many devices such as transistor,UJT, FET can be used as a switch. Here UJT is used as
a switch to obtain the sweep voltage. Capacitor C charges through the resistor,R
towards supply Voltage,Vbb. As long as the capacitor voltage is less than peak

Voltage,Vp, the emitter appears as an open circuit.

Vp =ηVbb + Vγ where,η = stand off ratio of UJT,
Vγ = Cut in voltage of diode.
When the voltage Vo exceeds voltage Vp, the UJT fires. The Capacitor starts discharging

through R1 + Rb1. Where, Rb1 is the internal base resistance. This process is repeated
until the power supply is available.

Component/Equipment
transfotmer 1
Resistors 220 1
Capacitor 0.1µF 1
Transistor NPN 1
CRO 20MHz 1
Regulated Power Supply (0-30V),1A 1

Theory:

A blocking oscillator is the minimal configuration of discrete electronic

Components which can produce a free-running signal, requiring only

a capacitor, transformer, and one amplifying component. The name is

Derived from the fact that the transistor (or tube) is cut-off or

"blocked" for most of the duty-cycle, producing periodic pulses. The

Non-sinusoidal output is not suitable for use as a radio-frequency

Local oscillator, but it can serve to flash lights or LEDs, and the

simple tones are sufficient for applications such as alarms or a morse-

code practice device. Some cameras use a blocking oscillator to strobe

the flash prior to a shot to reduce the red-eye effect.


57

.

Due to the simplicity of the circuit, it forms the basis for many of the
learning projects in commercial electronic kits. A secondary winding of
the transformer can be fed to a speaker, a lamp, or the windings of a
relay. A potentiometer placed in parallel with the timing capacitor
permits the frequency to be adjusted, but at low resistances the
transistor will be overdriven, and possibly damaged. The output signal
will jump in amplitude and be greatly distorted. The frequency of the
oscillator is also affected by the supply voltage
