Procedure:

Multiplexer:

1. Study the theory of operation.

2. Connect the trainer to the mains and switch on the power supply.

3. Observe the output of the AF generator-1 using CRO, it should be a

Sine wave of400 Hz frequency with 3 Vpp amplitude.

4. Observe the output of the AF generator-2 using CRO, it should be a

Sine wave of 200 Hz frequency with 3 Vpp amplitude.

5. Observe the output of the Clock generator using CRO, it should be a

Square wave of 500 Hz to 15 KHz frequency with 5 Vpp amplitude.

6. Now connect the CH1 & CH2 Inputs of the TDM multiplexer to the
outputs of the AF Generator1 and 2 respectively.

7. Connect clock output to the control input.

8. Observe TDM wave form using CRO and sketch them.

9. Study the theory of operation.

10. Connect the trainer to the mains and switch on the power supply.

11. Connect TDM signal to input of TDM de-multiplexer from TDM

multiplexer with the help of co-axial cable.

12. Now connect clock from the transmitter through a coaxial cable.

13. Observe CH1 and CH2 outputs. You will notice that the outputs are
natural top sampled PAM signals.

14. Connect CH1, CH2 outputs to low pass filters and observe the output of
the filters and compare them with the original AF Signals ( at multiplexer
inputs) using CRO, You will notice that both the signals are same in
frequency and shape. Signal amplitude may be attenuated during
smoothing process and this can be achieved by taking amplifiers output
Select AC/DC coupling depending on the input signal.

Observation on effect of synchronization:

15. Disconnect clock from multiplexer and connect to local oscillator with
remaining setup as it is. Observe CH1 and CH2 outputs and compare
them with the previous results. These signals are little bit distorted in
shape. This is because lack of synchronization between clock at
multiplexer and clock at de-multiplexer. You can get further perfection
in output wave forms by adjusting the locally generated clock.
