5 1. The diodes D1 and D2 in the circuit shown below are ideal diodes. If the circuit is driven by
a signal Vi (t) = (10mV ) cos(ωt), sketch the response Vo (t) as a function of time on the axes
provided. Label all the important features of the waveform.

5 kΩ D1

10 kΩ

D2
5 kΩ
Vi (t) −
Vo (t)

100 Ω

Vo (t)

0

Solution: For positive half cycle (Vi (t) > 0), D1 is on and D2 is off.
5 π 3π 2π
Vo (t) = − Vi (t) = −(10mV ) cos(ωt) 0≤t< and ≤t≤ .
5 2ω 2ω ω
For negative half cycle (Vi (t) < 0), D1 is off and D2 is on.

5 2. For the circuit shown below, calculate the output voltage vo in terms of vi assuming all op-
amps are ideal.

100 kΩ

+ 20 kΩ
vi − vo
−
400 kΩ +

20 kΩ
10 kΩ

Solution: The above circuit reduces to the following.

100 kΩ

20 kΩ
V1 − vo

+
10 kΩ
V2

where,
 
400
V1 = vi 1 + = 21vi ,
20

V2 = vi .

And finally,
100 100
vo = −V1 − V2 = −115vi .

5 3. Determine the function y(A,B,C,D) in the following circuit. [You need not minimize the
resulting expression.]

I0

I1
4×1
y(A,B,C,D)
MUX
I2

I3
S1 S0

A B
C D

Solution: For the above circuit, we have

I0 = CD, I1 = C̄ + D, I2 = CD, I3 = C̄ + D.

Hence,

y(A, B, C, D) = ĀB̄CD + ĀB(C̄ + D) + AB̄CD + AB(C̄ + D)

= B̄CD + B C̄ + BD.
