THEORY:
Semiconductors. Once formed the free electrons in the N region diffuse across the junction
and combine with holes in P region and so a depletion Layer is developed. The depletion
layer consists of ions, which acts like a barrier for diffusion of charged beyond a certain
limit. The difference of potential across the depletion layer is called the barrier potential. At
.re
2.5degree the barrier potential approximately equal 0.7v for silicon diode and 0.3v for
germanium diode.
When the junction is forward bias, the majority carrier acquired sufficient energy to
overcome the barrier and the diode conducts. When the junction is reverse biased the
w
depletion layer widens and the barrier potential increases. Hence the Majority carrier
cannot cross the junction and the diode does not conduct. But there will be a leakage
current due to minority carrier. When diode is forward biased, resistance offered is zero,
w
and when reverse biased resistance offered is infinity. It acts as a perfect switch.

The SCR consists of four layers of semiconductor material alternatively P type
and N type. It can be brought of as an ordinary rectifier with a control element .The control
element is called GATE. The gate current determines the anode to cathode voltage at which
the device starts to conduct.
jin
It means that gate terminal of the SCR is controlled by the applied voltage.
Once switched ON the gate has no further control. To switch the SCR the anode current
has to be reduced below a certain level called HOLDING CURRENT.
The SCR can be triggered ON with the gate or amplitude triggering, pulse
.re
triggering methods. The terms ON & OFF are used to represent the conduction and
blocking mode of SCR respectively open circuited with the anode to cathode voltage made
large enough .In conduction state the SCR behaves as an ordinary diode.
The anode to cathode voltage at which the SCR conducts is called BREAK
OVER VOLTAGE or FORWARD BLOCKING VOLTAGE. It has great switching speed

om
In a linear lumped element, bilateral electric circuit energized by two or more
sources, the current in any resistor is equal to the algebraic sum of the separate currents in
each resistor when each source act, separately.
The Voltage sources are short-circuited and the current sources are open circuited in
.c
order to replace the other sources by their respective internal resistances.

hence measure the bandwidth, resonant frequency.

Resonance Curve:
The curve between current and frequency is known as resonance curve. The shapes

wave is sharply peak, but for larger values of R, it is flat.

As shown in fig, the bandwidth AB is given by F2 – F1. F1 is the lower cut off frequency
and F2 is the upper cut off frequency.
Q - Factor:
In the case of a RLC series circuit, it is defined as equal to the voltage
magnification in the circuit at resonance. At resonance, current is maximum. Io= V/R.
om
The applied voltage V = IoR
Voltage magnification = VL/V = IoXL
In the case of resonance, high Q factor means not only high voltage, but also

higher sensitivity of tuning circuit. Q factor can be increased by having a coil of
large inductance, not of smaller ohmic resistance.

The RC linear network used for wave shaping circuit based on input
frequency is divided as High Pass Filter and Low Pass Filter. The High pass filter acts as
pa
differentiator when the time constant is very low. The Low pass filter circuit with a very
high time constant acts as an integrator.
