Introduction of tape recorder: To store information for long time is called 'recording'. To record this information a 'medium' is required which is audible or visual. The first attempt is made successfully to record I reproduce the sound was 'phoI10graph' later called 'gramophone', where the sound vibrations are grooved upon a wax plate rotating at constant velocity. After short time, first sound recording on steel wire accomplished by 'Vladimir Paulson'. He use a piano wire to record a short message using _an electromagnet. But the medium 'steel wire' has many draw backs, hence does not adopted. Later 'G. Pelumore invents a plastic base coated with iron particles, for magnetic recording. This medium was very successful since, it can be stored easily and the recorded messages have good quality. Few year later invention of poly vinayl chloride ( P.V.C.) solve whole problem of base for magnetic material coating, which-can be stored in form of rolled spools and it is called 'TAPE'. Later the Dutch company, Philips introduce first compact version of tape called 'cassette'. The standards established by the company are unchanged till date. Tape recorders used in field of entertainment, education, communication and personal requirements. The principle of tape recorder also adopted in visual recording such, as video cassette recorder. To understand the process of recording or reproducing of sound in tape recorder, first we should know few basics described in following texts. 1. Sound: Sound is completely 'mechanical waves' created by vibrations, does not have any 'electrical energy'. There is a 'medium' required to travel these sound waves such, as air, water, wood or metal. It can't travel in vacuum. Since it requires a 'medium' to travel, this brings its power down. Therefore it can't travel far. Its maximum velocity 332 m/sec in air while, in other mediums it lost its velocity. Sound waves can be converted in electrical signals and vice - versa, using 'transducers'. Audible signal frequency for human, lye between 16 Hz to 20 KHz. Below it the waves called 'infrasonic' and above it 'ultrasonic'. senergy involve vibrations. When this energy hit any flexible medium it produces vibrations on its surface. 2. Energy conversion 'the transducers:' Sound is in form of 'mechanical energy involve vibrations .When this energy hit any flexible medium, it produces vibrations on its surface.These vibrations are specified in three terms called 'amplitude', 'frequency' and 'rate of change of frequency.. The transducer should be able to fulfill these conditions. To convert sound energy in electrical energy the transducer used called 'microphone' in brief 'MIC'. To record these converted electrical signals upon magnetic surface( tape) another tranducer used called record head.To regenerate the sound this recorded magnetic surface(tape) passed through tranducer called playback head.Finally regenerated electrical singals converted back to sound using another transducer called loudspeaker Therefore four tranducer involved in tape recorders system.

3. Microphone: This transducer converts sound waves into electrical signals. There are many types of microphones available. In tape recorders system two types used, one is dynamic microphone and other is condenser microphone. To cover a speech dynamic types are the best as you have seen in many programmed, where it is called the 'stage mic'. microphone converts the sound energy into electrical energy (signals) corresponding with amplitude. 4. Record I playback head: Head is a transducer which converts electrical energy (signals) into magnetic energy. Conversely the head converts Ganging magnetic energy into varying electrical energy. Therefore it is an electromagnet. In tape recorders single unit 'RIP head' done both the jobs. Head constructed with laminated (alloy called alfinol) strips formed in ring shape, where the 'gap' at the ends is very small. This 'gap' usually kept 0.025 mm in mono heads and less than .02 mm in stereo heads. the high frequency response depends upon the 'gap'. Some heads use double C shaped core which has two 'gaps'. The rear one is but welded and front 'gap' filled with silicone dioxide layer. These heads called 'super per molly sand glass head, produce excellent frequency response. 5.Loudspeaker: The last. Transducer used in tape recorder is loudspeaker. Its working is similar to microphone but its size is larger than that and it produce sound energy converted form electrical energy (signals). former, suspended in gap around the pole piece.

The lower portion of it connected with yoke via flexible link called spider. When varying electrical current given to its coil, the magnetic field generated across it interacts with the field established by permanent magnet. It create vibrations which are transferred mechanically to the cone, hence in surrounding air in form of audible sound. Due to the applications in tape recorders such speakers used which produce good sound in mid frequency range.

6 Magnetic tape (Cassette)

The magnetic tape is the content, of a tape-recorded which store the information. In modern systems the form of magnetic tape is housed in a plastic case called 'cassette'. The base material of tape is P. V. C, polymer or cellulose acetate ribbon, having thickness around O.05mm. Its width is 3.8mm, coated uniformly with ferric oxides fine particles, having thickness about .012mm. The tape rolled over two toothed wheel$ called 'spool', housed in molded plastic housing. The tape travel upon two roller guide which make alignment in proper way.

Tape transport mechanism

To store (record) or to reproduce (play) information, a mechanical system required to move the magnetic tape. Since the recorded or reproduced information will be quite clear and faithful, if the tape moves at constant speed. Also there must -be arrangement to move tape faster if required. The mechanical assembly to perform this operation is called tape transport mechanism'. There are main parts of these assemblies are follows

1 The drive motor

. It is a machine, which converts electrical energy into kinetic energy lost modern tape recorders used 'permanent magnet field armature controlled dc motor' in brief PM DC motor. these motors are rated for 6, 9 or 12V and 2 to 4 watt power. The motor has three segment pole commutator with a set of carbon - graphite brush. Most motors govemed by an electronic circuit which control its speed to maintain constant RPM.

2. Rubber belt:
The mechanical (kinetic) power generated by motor, transferred to the rest of mechanism (toflywheel) through a rubber belt. The belt has many sizes and shapes, such in present system it is a flat belt.

3.Flywheel
It is a casted wheel (alloy of aluminium and cast materials) balanced around its its axle (shaft) madesteel. OneOne of this sthis shaft a casted wheel (alloy of aluminium and cast materials) balanced around axle (shaft) made of of steel. end end of rotate upon plastic bush mounted upon support plate, and other end, has enough length to fit in the cassette opening. The long portion of shaft is called 'capstan', which play major role in tape recorder. The flywheel maintains drive smooth to reduce flutter.

4.Pinchroller
It is a rubber mounted small wheel, which is forced by a tension spring towards capstan. It is attached with capstan when playback or record mode used. In high speed rewind or fast - forward and pause modes it is kept away from capstan. The tape lye between the capstan and pinch roller. When capstan moves the pinch roller also moves, due to mechanical contact. The direction of rotation oppose cause to pull tape at uniform speed. If pressure of pinch roller is more or less, then !ape start slipping, hence sound quality will be degraded. To correct it a tension spring is used.

The RF stage:

ignalAfter antenna, the front end of receiver is similar to radio, a superhetrodyned tuned stage called the Tuner._A tuner has local oscillator, RF amplifier and mixer stages with set of coils which are tuned to receive the desired signal, while rejecting the others. These may be mechanical version or electronically tuned by mean of varactor diodes. The prime aim of tuner is to receive the transmitted (amplitude modulated) signal from antenna, to amplify it and to create an intermediate frequency signal by heterodyning this signal with locally generate RF s. Since the subject is related with CN receiver, which use an electronically tuning system we will describe it only. The electronic tuner has input RF stage with tuned circuit and selection system between set of channels called band, namely VHF -1, VHF - 3 and UHF, abb as VL, VH & UH. The band selection is made by selecting the appropriate set of tuned Circuits applying the control voltage\ (dc voltage) to pin diodes. The channel selection is done by a dc varying voltage Tuning voltage applied to varactor diodes which vary their capacitance hence the variation in local oscillator frequency. The two frequencies RF input and local oscillator frequency is mixed in third stage where it generate two frequencies either sum or a difference. A tuned circuit having resonate frequency equal to difference frequency select the lowest one while the sum frequency is rejected. The output of this tuned circuit is called IF signal. The TUNER electronic circuit works on +12Vdc supply applied to pin marked MS. The band selection is made by applying +12Vdc to pin L (VHF 1 for ch 2 - 5), +12Vdc to H (VHF - 3 for ch 6 -12) or'+12Vdcto U (UHF fork 23 -69 in simple and 21 - 83 in extended range tuners).ln modern tuners, the VHF range is extended as S band range. For channel selection 933Vdc applied to varactor diode at pin T. To correct the amplification factor AGC voltage fed to RF stag- via pin AGC. Similarly for accurate tracking of oscillator AFT voltage fed to local oscillator via pin AFT The cover (CAN) is solidly grounded with ground track of PCB.

Colour T.V: The TV Receiver: The transmitted TV signal which include the 'Picture (vision information) and sound (audio information) is received at TV receiving antenna. Since the telecasted signal is complex in nature it is not possible to demodulate it in simple manner just' as in radio receivers. A TV signal has information of picture elements and audio information.- The picture signal has complex nature which includes the point to point detail called pixel,_the colour information, and synchronization signal which is required to reproduce the picture as it was (seen) scanned at studio. Thus a TV receiver includes more signal processing stages than a radio
receiver. Already given in text books, let it should be detailed briefly stage by stage in following texts.

2. The photo diode array: The electrical signal (information) is generated by photo diodes at reflected bead from CD surface. The photo diode has four diode namely A to 0, where A,C and B,D are grouped and contain information of data and focus signals, where DC voltage generated by tracking signals. It is shown, that due to cylindrical lens mounted upon photo diodes, which produce ellipse if light is not centred, called the astigmatism effect, the reflected beam is centered by Focus and tracking arrangement for proper output from photo diode pair, _The signal output has two antiphase signals, from which amplitude detection (A_C,&<B+D) is done by error detection correction circuit, and error send to servo system to actuate ,focus servo" where dc voltage level sensed by it send to tracking servo to correct it. Note both signal contained data.

CD

The mechanical system of a CD player can be divided in 4 parts, which are described in following texts.

1. Optical pick up assembly: Recorded digital signals (fig 3a), at CD surface is scanned (read) by a
laser system composed of, laser diode (AIGaAs type), optical lens etc as shown. The diode laser beams emit mono chromatic light of 780'nrn wavelength, 0.12mW, is differentiated by diffraction grating mounted at laser Diode assembly. The differentiated beam is reflected by glass plate coated with polarizing< material. A set of collimating lens convert tl1 isaifferentiated beam in parallel beam. The incident beam is focused up to 1.5/lmil with objective lens upon CD surface. To focus it electromagnetic focus system used. In focus system, the objective lens mount is made of plastic, has a coil is wound around it, which is excited with current. Two permanent magnets fixed aside, produce uniform magnetic field around this coil. When excited by dc current, the generated magnetic lines cut the field of magnetic field, and coil displacement is obtained which is suspended upon a pair of leaf springs. the movement of lens is up - down depends upon polarity of excitation current. The current to this coil is supplied by focus servo system. The movement of objective lens is 4m from 'its rest position. There is another pair coils wound, axially upon objective lens mount. These called tracking coils. Excited by dC,-, current it pulls objective lens either side from centre. It's current controlled by tracking servo system. The movement of objective lens is 0.1 mm in each direction from its rest position.

player(front londing):It is asingle unit , composed of plastic frame,disc holder tray,(tray drive motor) loading motor,and gear assembly, drive belt and limit switch.The optical unit with motors mounted upon chassis,is suspended in this frame.At the top side a free run magnetized drum in form of iron disc,is placed in centre of drum holder.When PEN button or command feed to the system,the loading motor servo feed dc voltage to this loading motor.Mechanical power of this motor transferred by belt, to gear assembly which move tray outside by a rack molded inside tray. At same time a cam system release the chassis of optical unit, to release the CD. 3. The carriage' system: Carriage system is optical pickup assembly, displacement procedure. The
optical unit fitted upon a slide system having worm and gear system drive by a small. PMDC motor called <slide motor or carriage drive motor. The motor actuated by a servo-system, carriage servo, in conjunction with tracking servo. There is a finite delay introduced between two signals. First tracking servo tries the beam position to fall reflected beam upon group of -photo diodes in right position: Sometimes it is required to adjust the optical unit completely to move for right tracking. Therefore a small delay introduced after tracking signal, 'and if proper tracking does not obtained by adjusting tacking coil, 'the carriage motor moves for right tracking. After properly focused and tracked beam, the carriage motor run slowly to continue to track the spiral path of cd.

5. The disc rotating system: The CD rotate at constant linear velocity by another motor called the 'disc
drive motor' or 'spindle motor'. This motor ac voltage controlled by disc motor servo to maintain its speed according to data flow in half filled memory. This motor has a long 20mm, spindle, holding a round iron plate to hold CD, called 'disc holder' fitted in optical unit chassis. When chassis: lifted up the CD, hold between the disc holder and free run magnetized drum. The proper adjustments of disc holder ensure the CO rotate without any obstruction. 6. The control and display: The operating controls called PSC, (playback control) accessible either by remote control or by selected function of keys. The signal (command) from this board is in form of serial data designated as IR, goes to microprocessor in MPEG decoder. The system (data time) information, status, track is displayed upon - CE panel. The signals from microprocessor to display designated as 01. The control panel and display work on 5Vdc supply, where remote on 3V (two dry cells). 7. The power supply: The power to operate the CD player, obtained from stepped down ac (10 -0 10V),

rectified, filtered, regulated to obtain by dc, for servo system and 5 Vdc for rest of the system. There are
two identical, 3.3Vdc transistor regulated supply used for memory built in MPEG card.

Objective: - Study of Sound Processing of VCD Player. Apparatus required: - VCD demonstrator kit.
The test points (TP) and signal observation: To study of CD player signal observations, the block diagram shown is helpful. The laser diode is excited by a signal LOON at TP7, and from reflected light, data read by photo diode array is available as two antiphase signals A+C, 8+0, respectively at TP8 and TP11. The obtained signals are amplified equally, and mplitude and phase compared inside IC 1, to generate focus correction voltage as, FCS. After this process, dc level of this signal compared and tracking voltage generated as, TCS. These are dc voltages and not given for test purpose 'since its observation time is, 2-4sec not for CRO purpose.

..

The amplified signal is then routed to IC2, to decode (demodulate) 14bit symbol into 8bit word. This process called 'eight to fourteen bit demodulation' and generated signals are EFM decoded signals at TP9 and TP1 0 respectively. It is an important signal for further process, since it contains data bytes, control bits and synchronization bits. A part of it send to clock signal generation circuit inside IC4 , for synchronization of timing signals, to produce status signals DT for display. Other part of it after integration sends inside IC2.

Result:- The sound processing unit of VCD PIayer is studied.

Objective: To study TUNER stage functions of colour TV. Other apparatus: CRG (wideband is better), DMM and if available a sweep/marker generator Theory:- An electronic attenuate controlled by IC901, bring attenuated sound signal at TP46, where it goes
for IC601 for further amplification and to drive loudspeaker. The AM detected output is again send to a phase discriminator which has another tuned circuit L 152, C 17 4, 175 and 176 which are the parts connected across the video detector coil L 151 and IC pin 16 and 19.The phase discriminator output which has a peak voltage output vis the input signal strength is obtained at pin 13 of TA 7680. This de voltage is send to the tuner oscillator to track and lock the local oscillator frequency for maximum strong signal. It is similar to a phase lock. Loop circuit which automatically tracks the VCO for match the correct phases hence the accurate

input - output frequency tracking is possible. The AM detected signal does also used to generate AGC voltage controlled by R 151 AGC preset, for internal VIF and RF. The IF stage description: The heterodyned signal from the tuner I.F. is passed through a transistor amplifier Q 161, which has a voltage gain within 12 dB approx. The combination of R165 and L 162, with current feedback gives a wideband operation to boost the signals within 7 MHz bandwidth. The necessity of this stage is due to introduction of SAW filter ahead which has insertion loss of -10 dB. The SAW filter (surface acoustic wave filter) is a multiple ceramic resonator which is designed to attenuate and pass the required frequencies signals thus we obtain a required pass band signal within the bandwidth of 33.4 - 38.9 MHz. The output of SAW filter is send to the video I. F. amplifier stage of T A 7680 (pin 7 & 8) which ~ differential input with a tuned circuit across it. The function of this tuned circuit (L 102, called PSF match coil and R101) is to match the picture and sound signal. The gain of video I.F. amplifier is nearly60dB.The AM, detected signal called CCVS (composite colour video signal, with 5.5 MHz sound intercarrier signal), is passed through a low pass filter LOS, R202 and available at TP43.The sound take off is performed by ceramic resonator Z601 coupled with TP43 through C602A After passing Z601, sound intercarrier available at TP42, the FM detector input. L651 serve FM detector coil and demodulated sound (AF signals) available at TP44 after amplification. U: or U. T: T.

Objective :- Study of chroma section of CTV. Others apparatus: is CRO (wide band is better) DMM The luminance and chrominance section: Processing the CCVS, refer block diagram and circuit diagram, we start from the signal after passing through sound trap. The luminance signal (Y): The representation of full colour picture upon screen is not possible without the luminance or black and white images. The Y +C signal is takeoff from the sound trap (Z201, L201 ).directly and passed through a buffer amplifier at pin 39 Of iC501. the output of this amplifier (pin40) is fed to luminous delay line (W201 ), through an attenuators control which is called 'contrast control'. As shown in block diagram the luminous and chroma signals are separately routed, where the .chroma section has longer path than luminous. To made equilibrium between both, a lumped parameter L - C delay line (W201) inserted between the final luminous amplifier (pin3) and buffer (pin42). The time delay produced by luminous delay is equal to one H line or64 uSee. The signal from delay line is than boosted to required level to drive the video amplifier transistors. The de voltage level of Y output amplifier decide the brightness of picture, therefore brightness control is connected with this circuit. An adder circuit (0202, 203,204) is inserted between the video amplifiers and Y amplifier to add the vertical and horizontal blanking signals with Y signal. This blanking added Y signal is fed to the emitter of video output transistors while collectors of them is connected with cathodes of CRT Since these are NPN transistors therefore the Y amplifier output has ve going polarity signals. Thus higher the Y signal amplitude higher will be intensity of the CRT. The blanking pulse- are positive going thus it cut - off the cathodes during blanking periods. The chrominance section (C). The CCVS signal taken from sound trap is inverted, amplified (pin40) and passed through a narrow band pass filter (C501, L501 ,C502) having comer frequencies between +O.5Mhz, while the centre frequency is 4.43 MHz colour sub carrier frequency. The band pass filter extracts the chrominance information. This signal is raised by first amplifier called 'chroma Band pass amplifier'.

Obejective: To study the electronic portion of tape recorder. Apparatus Required: tape recorder kit,CRO,Connecting probes. Theory:The electronics circuitry:
Failing of it cause the colour sync problem where colour beat seen upon the picture. The output of chroma gain control amplifier is send to the colour matrix decoder stage one input directly (via R507, C51 a), while the other is send through a quartz delay line (X502). This delay line also called as 'PAL delay line' alternate phase of C signal with each line (64uS). The third input of matrix receive control signal from the PAL switch circuit. The PAL switch is a gating circuit gated from killer detector output and signal from colour sub carrier generator. The output of PAL switch is altered one by one through T type, flip - flop which is triggered with each H line signal obtained by keying pulse. Thus the PAL switch signal control the matrix decoder for each H line between direct and delayed (phase alternated) input. This create the required phase difference signal at the matrix output which is send to R - Y and 8 - Y demodulators. The G - Y signal is created from adding the R - Y and 8 - Y signals with respective proportions, (G - Y) = (0.51 R - Y + 0.19 8 - Y).The (G - Y ) signal is inverted and obtained as G - Y signal. The demodulated R - Y. G - Y. 8 - Y signals are now said R. G. 8 signals only. These signals are fed to video amplifier transistors base with respective cathode connections, sendingwith red amplifier also called the burst with blue video cathode tuned voltage amplifier (L552, The output is Le. R to burst cathode video amplifier, 8 gate. This stage is also a amplifier and G, with green video cathode amplifier. C512; C513) with biased near cut - off level. The burst gate has one other input taken from the Horizontal output stage
as keying pulses. This pulse is required to confirm that burst gate open during peak fly back period only since the colour sub carrier as burst signal is send in this period as in fig. The output of burst gate is send to ACC (automatic colour control) detector circuit (via C511) which feedback part of this signal back to band pass amplifier. The working of ACC. detector stage is similar to AGC circuit which controls the I.F amplifier gain. The signals from ACC detector output is send through 'killer identity detector' stage. This stage incorporated in all colour televisions. The aim of this stage is to kept off the chroma gain control amplifier when no burst received in received signal. It is a threshold detector stage where it compares the threshold level with the input signal. The presence of burst in signal ensures that the level is completed thus killer detector bias the chroma gain control amplifier; otherwise it will kill the gain. Failing of this stage cause noise signal called 'colour snow or confetti'. Other effect of this stage failing is to appear small colour patches upon white part of picture. The output of this stage is fed to chroma gain control amplifier and PAL switch. Because of suppressed carrier AM modulation used in colour modulators, in every colour TV receiver a crystal controlled (X501) colour sub carrier generator is used to generate the local sub carrier. The 4.43 MHz signal is generated in oscillator section which has dc voltage controlled phase reference. To obtain correct tint or hue, of colour picture the phase synchronization between sample send as burst and generated sub carrier is necessary. This is achieved by APC detector (automatic phase control) circuit which compare the. generated carrier phase with the burst phase obtained from the chroma gain amplifier. Its threshold level is extemally controlled by 'tint or hue' control. The correction voltage appeared at its one output is send to the carrier generator to coincide the phase. Its other output is send to the) burst gate circuit called the 'burst clean'. If the burst gate opens at wrong signal such noise or Y signals it will be cancelled out by this feedback loop.

In this section, the function details of tape recording/playback and transport System is studied.The signals either obtained from microphone for recording,or from playhead to listen has very low intensities.Therefore amplification is required to perform the satisfactory response.basically the systemis shown in following block diagram.

The signal from microphone is amplified and fed to recordhead, which in turn magnetize tape with signal pattern. During playback the playhead generate electrical signals and amplified output drive loudspeaker to produce sound.In this manner the sound signals are recorded and reproduced.

1.Playback Preamplifier:
The signal output at head is very low in order few mV.It is required to amplify it to improve signal to noise ratio and to compensate(equalize) preior to final amplification.In fig 1,the preamplifier circuit is shown.It is two stage high gain direct coupled amplifier, where noise reduction performed by the series voltage ve feedback.SelectingRIAA mode the network switched to R-Cfilter circuit(R3,R8,C7) with time constant 120s and 3180s.The overall voltage gain of this stage is200(at 1000Hz inRIAA mode)and 250 in flat mode.

2.A.F Output amplifier: The signal output at preamplifier has sufficient amplitude(about 1Vpp), it is not appreciable to drive the loudspeaker.Hence it is further amplified by the output amplifier prior to send,speaker voice coil.The circuit is complementory push-pull amplifier with one more amplifiying stage.The circuit is shown in fig 2.

3.Power Supply: The built in dc power supply circuit is shown below. The input ac is stepped down by t1, full wave rectified, filtered and passed through three terminal regulator7812.to minimize ripple. D included for safety of REG78

4. Recording amplifier:
The recording circuit divided in three parts,(1)The signal amp (2)ALC (3)Bias. 1.The signal amplifier boost the input signal from microphone output(in order few mV)to sufficient level ,thus recording current should enough strong to magnetize tape.It is a three stage amplifier, where first stage is simple voltage amplifier, built around transisterQ8, raise the input voltage60 times.The output signal of this stage further goes to input of final amplifier, which is two stage direct coupled amplifier(comprising Q3,Q7 Circuit),with negative feedback.Here it should be note that emitter bypass circuit aroundQ3,has high frequency boost circuit C14,R16.As stated in earlier text(preemphesis) it is required toboost high frequency signals during` recording.The recording current(200A) is set by R18.If this current is more than it the head core will be saturate,which result in top and bottom clipped recorded signals. To avoid it automatic level control(A.L.C) Circuit used. The ALC circuit around Q4, tooks a small input signal from the output Q3, amplify it nearly 150 times and half wave rectify with diode D3,D4. This dc voltage which is in propotion with output signal amplitude feed to base of Q6,which acts as variable resistance.More the dc voltage produced the transistor impedance of Q6, between collector-emitter falls and signal atten

3.The need of bias required to eliminate the crossover distortion, produced at the headside.To describe it more clear lets observe the illus 12a,where B-Hloop of a ferromagnetic material is shown . It is clear from illustration that, first time magnetizing field(Hc) applied to it (material) cause to move the curve O-A. When field is bring back to minimum,it does not follow the same O-A.curve but there is some magnetic flux remain,Shown as point B.It is called the renitivity of ferromagnetic material.To remove it Hc quantityO-C required.The same replica shown in Hc and +Hc to bring this renitivity back to point O,whenever magnetic field Hc=0,obtained by adding some kind of ac voltage to the field winding.

The cyclic current flow due to ac excited field bring the loop smaller and smaller.This`phenomenon is base of , feeding bias voltage to the head. However if these bias voltage does not given to the head,it cause to bring loop back in the fig, and recorded signal will be distirted (may be removel of one half or other half or both).The recording signal(information)is superimposed upon bias voltage,which overcome the problem and recording is performed in linear region of B-H loop.The minimum bias frequency should be kept twice of highest audio frequency 40 KHZ.Bias trap is used for two purpose ,1st avoid loading record amplifier,2nd, to maintain its level constant,sinceQ3 impedence is lower than bias network,L2,C11,(rejector circuit) brings> impedance at bias frequency high avoid it.

It is bias signal. 8.Switch off ALC(S1).Measure the amplitude of signal at TP3. 9.Switch on ALC (S1).Repeat the above step and observe the signal variation atTP3 within limit .The ALC circuit try to kept the record signal within limitto avoid saturation of recording current.

RESULT:- The electronic protion of Tape Recorder is studied.

Objective:- To study the power supply section of colour TV. Appartus Required :- Colour TV Demonstrator kit ,CRO ,Connecting Probes. Theory:- The Switched Mode Power Supply(SMPS):The CTV circuit operates on 100-110vdc power supply whitch is obtained from switch mode power supply regulator whitch in short called theSMPS.This name designated it to its functioning, where the regulator device does not conduct continuous whether it regulate in on off-on manner.Basically it has a pulse width modulator the output of whitch,is variable pulse width , make the power regulatorn on-off.The input ac line is rectified by bridge rectifier consistsD806-808,and filtered by C815to obtain dc unregulated power supply.The +ve of unregulateddcis fed to regulatorQ804, through primary winding of smps transformer pin 5-1.The-ve of unregulated dc is fed to emitter through R805 whitch is included for current sense. The Schmitt (pulse width) modulator is formed by Q802and Q803,the output of whitch is capactively coupled through C807 with base of Q804 .The base of Q804is pulled to +unregulated dc through high value resistor cobina onR804+803. The back emf generated by the primary of smps transformer is effectively suppressed by R817-C810 snubber circuit.The other windings of smps transformer to primary sides are feedback winding pin 7-8,and auxillary power supply winding pin 9-10.The secondary side has two windings designated for 110 and 22Vdc supply.

The Switching action:When ac line is connected with mains and power applied to the bridge rectifier ,the unregulated dc supply applied to collector-emitter of Q804 via primary of SM transformer and R806 .A small forward voltage applied to the base of Q804, through the series combination of R803,804 force to conduct it on every half cycle .The on condition of Q904 bring the magnetic saturation in SM transformer core ,and when the cycle goes to

zero this leads to produce counter emf in secondary winding.The voltage across the 2nd winding of primary side pin 7-8, has such termination that a positive voltage appear across the C807 through diode D804 and D803A.the base of Q804 effectively leads to cut off by C807. As this time the Schmitt trigger formed by Q802,803 is on the C807 discharge through it force Q804 to switch on .This successive action develope the voltage across third winding of primary side pin 9-10,which are rectified and applied to an error detector formed around Q801. The voltage at its emitter which is refrenced by zener diode D801,is comparedwith the wiper end of VR801 potential divider and the difference is applied to the input of Schmitt trigger The Schmitt trigger on time depends upon these voltages.When the secondary side is being loaded the load reflected at primary side,thus the error detector input voltage is dropped and voltage at the collector of Q801, rise +ve which cause to trigger Q803,804 late thus Q804 on for long time .When load current is low the voltage at error detector increase thus less +ve voltage applied at Q802 ,cause to cut-off Q804 QUICKLY.Thus the output voltage can be adjusted by adjusting the threshold level of Schmitt trigger input by mean of VR801, the error detector. microprocessor.
