DESCRIPTION

Diode which is a semiconductor material passes current one diection better than other
direction The potential difference between the diode terminals determines whether or not we
diode conduction. If the anode is positive compared to the cathode, diode will forward current
and in this case the diode means that it is correct polarization. If it is positive compared to the
cathode to the anode, diode will allow you to pass through a very small leakage current and in
this case the diode means that it is reverse polarization.
In correct polarization, The voltage on the silicon diode is about 0.7V. (The voltage on
the germanium diode is about 0.3V.) Bu values are lower than the threshold voltage, diode
only allows a little current . This threshold voltage on the diode characteristic curve is called
twist. Because in this area, current through the diode voltage and falling on the diode voltage

CLIPPING and CLAMPING CIRCUITS

OBJECTIVE

Understanding how to learn the working of principles of Clipping and clamping circuits

BILL OF MATERIALS

Diode: 2 units 1N4001 Silicon diode or the equivalent of it

Resistor: 2 units 10kΩ, 2 units 4.7KΩ, 1 unit 10MΩ, 1 unit 100Ω
Capacitor: 2 units 470μF

DESCRIPTION

Clipping Circuit

Any voltage level of input signal is above or below a certain part of the blinking circuit is
called clipping circuits. These circuits is used for rectifier curcuits, protection curcuits and a
wide variety of wave-shaping. A simple clipping circuit is shown at Figure-1.

Figure 1

Output signal is occured to clip small values of the input signal is zero volts and this is shown
at Figure-1. One of the clipper curcuits advantages can be replaced clipping level. İn other
words; the output voltage can be obtained from clipped desired signal voltage level.To
understand better at Figure 2. DC power source is connected to the diode in this circuit. To
pass the diode transmission in these circuits, the anode must have a more positive than
cathode (VDC < Vm olmalıdır). İn other words; when input signal exceeds VDC, diode can pass
transmission

12
 Figure 2

When we analyze the circuit , DC source negative side is connected to the diode anode and
thus we can understand reverse polarity diode. To pass diode transmission, anode should be
more positive than cathode. İf this not happen, diode can’t pass transmission and output
voltage will always be zero.İf we analyze the positive alternans of input signal, when input
signal more greater than VDC, diode pass transmission and output become the difference
between value of the input voltage and VDC source . If we analyze peak value, this differance
become Vm-VDC (diode forward voltage threshold is ignored) and output peak value will be
Vm-VDC.

Parallel clipping occur that diode and output load or voltage connected in parallel. A simple
parallel clipping circuit is shown at Figure-3. At first, If the positive alternans active to circuit
input , diode cant pass transmission to be reverse polarization . (about open-circuit) And
Output voltage will be equal to input voltage. Secondly, when negatif alternans active to
circuit input, diode can pass transmission and diods will be zero volt . (refraction voltage is
neglected) Output voltage is equal to diode voltage or it is zero volt. Consequently ;This
circuit clips the negative alternans, but the input value is equal to the output without changing.

Figure-3
Clipping level can be brought desired level in the parallel clipping circuit like serial
circuit.For example; when we analyze the circuit at figure-4 , Clipping voltage is equal to -
VDC in the circuit output waveform and values are smaller than this values are clipped. Lets

13
look at the circuits to understand better . When the anode side of diode can be activeted –VDC
and input voltage is zero voltage, output voltage is zero.Also İf input voltage level is smaller
than –VDC level , cathode will be more negative than anode and diode vill be pass
transmission. In this case; output voltage is equal to –VDC ( refraction voltage is neglected).
When input voltage is smaller than -VDC , Output is always –VDC and Clipping process would
have occured.

Figure-4

Clamping Circuits

Clamping circuits is used for changing Dc voltage level applied to input. To do this, circuit
consisting of diode,capacitor and resistor should be used. Clamping circuits shift waveform
from negative area. This circuits are somitemes called level changer. Because they add
particular dc level to waveform. A simple clamping circuit is shown at Figure 5.

Figure 5
Circuit in the figure 6 clamps signal applied to input to zero DC level. For input signal
showing in the figure, on the diode will occur positive voltage in the period time between 0
and T/2. Diode acts as a short circuit in this case. Circuits is shown at Figure-a .

14
 (a) (b)
Figure-6
Output of circuit is zero volt in this case and capacitor reachs peak voltage of input voltage (V
voltage ) in the short time. When input voltage is –V voltage (between T/2 and T) ,diode will
be negative voltage. Eventually circuit is as figıre-b. RC time constant should be great in this
circuit. Capacitor voltage must remain constant as far as possible in this time so RC should be
choosen great value. To remain constant between T/2 and T on the capacitor voltage, output
voltage is the sum of input and capacitor voltage. In other words, 𝑉𝑜 = 𝑉𝑖𝑛 − 𝑉𝑐 = −𝑉 − 𝑉 =
−2𝑉. Graph of the ınput and output voltage is shown at Figure-3.

TRANSISTOR CHARACTERISTICS

OBJECTIVE

Understanding the structure of transistors and determine the input and output characteristics

DESCRIPTION
Structure of Transistor

BJT transistors are produced using doped P and N type materials. There are mainly two types
of NPN and PNP. NPN transistors include 2 units N type semiconductor materials and 1 unit
P type semiconductor material which is between of N type materials. PNP transistors include
2 units P type semiconductor materials and 1 unit N type semiconductor material which is
between of P type materials. Therefore, the transistor has 3 layers or terminals (Figure 1).

18
In figure 2, it is given required polarity connections for NPN and PNP type transistors. It is
applied correct polarization towards base-emitter joint of the transistor by VBB source. It is
applied cross polarization towards base-collector joint of the transistor by VCC source.

Figure 2: The polarization of NPN and PNP transistors

Input Characteristic of Transistors

The characteristic curve shows the relationship of any current-voltage electrical materials.
Transistor has 2 different characteristic curves for input and output. Input characteristic of
transistor gives the relation between emitter voltage (VBE) and base current (IB) . To obtain the
input characteristic of transistor, collector-emitter voltage (VCE) is taken as a parameter and
base current (IB) is changed due to this voltage. It is measured the effect base emitter voltage
(VBE) because of changes of base current.

Figure 3: Input characteristic of the transistor.

19
As it can be seen from the graph, input characteristic of the transistor are similar to a normal
diode characteristic. While VBE voltage is less than 0.5 V, base current is so small that can be
negligible. Unless it is said in the applications, it can be accepted base-emitter voltage is equal
to 0.7 V when transistor start the transmission. Temperature can affect base emitter voltage
(VBE) a little part. For example, when the temperature increase each 1 degrees, VBE will
decrease about 2.3 mV.

Output Characteristic of Transistors

Output from the transistors is usually taken between collector-emitter poles. Therefore, output
characteristic of transistor gives changes of collector current (IC) and collector-emitter voltage
(VCE) which depends change of base current (IB) . VCE source which is applied to transistor is
important. This voltage should be equal to determined limit values. If the voltage exceed the
determined limit value, it causes deterioration due to occured refraction on the transistor.

DESCRIPTION

DC Polarization and Work Point

To use the transistor as amplifier or to amplify output voltage ( AC signal from the input ) , A
suitable DC polarization circuit is needed. If you are not a suitable DC polarization circuit,
transistor can not be used as an amplifier . So what does this mean DC polarization? Briefly,
it be defined as the providing of Proper working point or biasing of DC voltages between the
terminals of the transistor.

DC polarization circuit provides flowing static current from beyz,collector and emitter of
transistor. This meant that If there is an AC signal in the transistor inputs, ,Voltage and
current in the transistor will remain as static current and voltage. This situation is valid for
ideal conditions.Q working point is working point described above and symbols are added to
the subscript (Q) to determine current and voltage in this point. For example; IBQ and VCEQ
values respectively is voltage value of the transistor having beyz current and between
collector and emitter in the static working point.

Tempeture changings cause some negative effects on the transistor. Changing with
proportionately temperature and β being transistor current gain is the most importaant of
them. In other words; if the temperature increases, β increases so static working current and
voltage requested to remain stable will change . Different polarization circuits is used to

24
prevent the undesirede situation . We will analyze polarization circuits the most commonly
used and so understand transistor as usng amplifier .

OBTAINING CHARACTERISTIC CURVES OF JFET

OBJECTIVE

To obtain characteristic curves of JFET.

BILL OF MATERIALS

Transistor: 2x BF245 transistor or its compelent

Resistors: 2 x100Ω,2x1kΩ, 2x2.2KΩ,2x270KΩ

DESCRIPTION

FET is called unipolar (single pole) on the contrary BJT transistors. Because FET is only one
load carrier. When gate-source voltage (VGS) of N-channel JFET transistor is negative,
Current flow is made from drain to source. While VGS voltage is 0V, G-D junction is reverse
polarized and not current flows. On the contrary BJT transistors, output current ID is
controlled by VGS voltage. Output current IC is controlled by the input current IB in BJT.
Figure 1 seems to be the relationship between the output current ID input voltage VGS. ID
and VGS 's max values must be known in order to calculate the current and voltage in
operating point. If VGS = 0 V, ID current max value, and is called IDSS (Drain saturation
current). If VGS voltage is increased (negative will be increased) ID current will be equal to 0
at a point. When ID = 0 VGS voltage is called VP (pinch-off voltage).

At the time of the study point to calculate the current and voltage, the equations of figure.1 are
solved at the same time. On the left side of equations is transfer equation of the transistor. On

AMPLIFIERS OF JFET
OBJECTIVE

Learning AC analyses of amplifier with JFET.

BILL OF MATERIALS

Transistor: 2x 2N3823 JFET or its compelent.

Capacitor: 2 adet 33μF, 2 adet 10μF.
Resistors: 2 adet 1MΩ, 2 adet 2.2kΩ, 2 adet 1.1kΩ.

DESCRIPTION

FET's input resistance is much higher than bipolar transistor, so FETs are more preferred. On
semiconductor characteristic values: selection of ID, VDS, VGS values (determination of the
operating point), then initially calculated RD=(VDD-VDS+VGS)/ID value. The negative
voltage is provided by RSS between gate and emetor. Deliberately, R1=1MΩ is selected, and
İf any current never flows through gate, VR1= 0V. This means is that the gate voltage is at
ground potential. In this case, only ID current will flow on RSS. As a result, RSS=- VGS/ID
is obtained.
C1 capacitance is put into for coupling AC signals. capacitance is effective at low
frequencies. R1>1/wC1 condition must be satisfied for a good low-frequency response. This
inequality 10-fold difference R1=10/wC1 will be sufficient. R1=1.5MΩ and the lower cut-off
frequency selected for fa C1=10/(2π fa R1) .
Not to change the emitter voltage of AC signals, CSS bridging capacity are connected. CSS
impedance value must be much lower than from RSS by the value of signal frequency, so
terminal of the emitter is grounded. according to this CSS= 10//(2π fa RSS) is used.
