LAB QUESTIONS:

1. How is an Astable Multivibrator connected in PPM?


Ans: It generates a continuous pulse train as the carrier signal, and the input signal
modulates the timing of these pulses to create a pulse position-modulated output.

2. What is the function of Reset?


Ans: Reset initializes the circuit to a known state, clearing stored values to ensure
consistent operation after power-up or interruptions.

3. What are the modes of operation of a timer?


Ans: Delay Mode
Monostable Mode
Astable Mode

4. Expression for the time delay of a Monostable Multivibrator:


Ans: T=R(C) where R is the resistor and CCC is the capacitor.

5. Expression for the time period of an Astable Multivibrator:


Ans: T=0.693(R1+2R2) where R1,R2 and CCC are circuit components.

INFERENCE:
The experiments demonstrate the versatility of multivibrators and timers
in generating and modulating signals. The astable multivibrator effectively produces pulse
trains for pulse position modulation. The reset function is essential for initializing circuits to
a stable state, ensuring reliable operation. Monostable multivibrators show predictable
timing behavior based on T=1.1RC, while astable multivibrators confirm the dependence of
oscillation frequency on component values. These findings emphasize the importance of
component selection in designing reliable timing and modulation circuits.

RESULT :
From this experiment,we have completed the astable and monostable
multivibrators and have found the time period to be:
1.Astable Multivibrator:
2.Monostable Multivibrator:
