UNIT - 1 ELECTRONICS 3.1 Diode / Today we live in an era of electronics. i of science and engineering which deals wt ; through semiconductors. It deals with e ectronic semiconductor diodes, transistors, ete and their i electronic devices can perform as rectifiers, ampli ers, etc. These devices are smaller in size, cheaper in co t efficient in performance than the bulky vacuum tub they have effectively replaced the vacuum tubes fro electronics. Semiconductor Substances like germanium, silicon, selenium: : good conductors like copper nor insulators like glass. 7 of these materials lies in between conductors and i substances are called semiconductors. Intrinsic and Extrinsic semiconductor A semiconductor in a pure form without impu called an intrinsic Semiconductor. The intrinsic little current conduction capability at room temp. The electrical Properties of a pure semicondu to a great extent by adding a small amount of suita The semiconductor with such an impurity is Semiconductor, The Process of adding impurities Oo it is known as N ~ type semiconductor. P — type semiconductor When a small amount of trivalent impurity (say boron or aluminum or gallium or indium) is added to a pure germanium semiconductor, it is known as P — type semiconductor. PN Junction When a P — type semiconductor is suitably joined to a N ~ type semiconductor, the contact surface is called PN junction. The device is called PN junction device. The diode is symbolically represented by an arrow head P meeting a bar N (Fig 3.1) The arrow head shows the direction of the current flow in the diode. Fig 3.1 Biasing of PN Junction The external voltage applied to the PN junction is called biasing. There are two types of biasing. They are (i) Forward biasing and (ii) Reverse biasing. i) Forward biasing APN junction is forward biased if the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the P — side and the negative terminal to the N — side. A forward biasing circuit is given in Fig 3.2 - Since positive terminal of the battery is connected ty thea side it repels the holes in the P — side and pushes them towary , 2 is ae ive terminal of the batt Se junction. Similarly the negative a ery repels 1, electrons in the N - side and pushes them towards the junction 7), ition region. The electrons and holes n,. in turn will remove the dep! egion i can cross the junction in opposite directions. As such an electric cur, t is known as forward curren, flows across the junction. This curren! When the battery voltage V is increased, the forward current | als, increases. ii) Reverse biasing j ‘A PN junction is reverse biased if the positive terminal of th battery is connected to the N — side and the negative terminal to the P — side. A reverse biasing circuit is represented in Fig. 3.3 Here, the negative terminal of the battery attracts the holes in the P — side and positive terminal of the battery attracts the electrons in the N — side. This makes the depletion region wider. Therefore no charge can flow across the junction and the junction current is zero This is for an ideal diode. However, in practical diodes, there is a very small reverse current (order of micro ampere) passes through the diode. This current is due to movement of minority carriers across 4 the junction. When the reverse bias is increased, the current reaches a small maximum value. For any further increase of reverse bias, the reverse current remains constant and is known as reverse saturation 42 Volt ampere characteristics ofa -N junction diode Forward bias characte: visties R ‘ Fig. 3.4 ram to study the a forward bias characteristic is shown in above figure, The P-N diode is forward biased by connecting the P ~ terminal to the POSitive side of the battery and N-terminal to ‘the negative side of the battery. The voltage applied across the diode is varied using the rheostat and the voltage is measured using the voltmeter V, and the current through the diode is measured using the milliammeter. The theostat is adjusted to change the voltmeter readings and thee wresponding ammeter readings (1) are noted. The graph is plotted by AG Vorward bias voltage (V) along X-axis and current (I) along ‘fhe yoxis. The curve obtained is shown in Fig.3.5, The Portion OR in ‘the ge iph shows the forward bias characterist r The forward voltage at which the current through the junetig, Starts increases rapidly is known as knee voltage. This oe be fon by extrapolating the graph from linear portion to moet the volta, axis. The forward resistance can be found by taking slope at c™ linear portion of the curve. Then forward resistance, | _ AB slope BC } Reverse bias characteristics The P-N junction diode is reverse biased by connecting the » terminal to the positive side of the battery and p-terminal to the negating side of the battery, Then by adjusting rheostat the voltmeter reading, are varied. Then for various voltmeter readings the current value Then the curve is plotted between (1) are noted from the ammeter. Vand I. Forward bias Bee Reverse bias Ir The zener voltage depends upon the amount of doping. If the & diode is heavily doped, it has a lower breakdown voltage. On the & iherhand, a lightly doped diode has a higher breakdown voltage. A properly doped crystal diode which has a sharp breakdown voltage is known as a Zener diode, Zener diodes with breakdown voltages Ne ranging from 2 volts to a few hundred volts are available, The American scientist C.Zener gave an explanation for the {© rapid current increase at the zener breakdown voltage. The applied i@ reverse voltage to the PN junction will accelerate the elec’ fe (minority carries) in the diode. When the applied voltage increases th these electrons will be accelerated to high velocities. At Zener voltage tw these high velocity electrons produce other free electrons by ionization by collisions with atoms in the diode, These electrons are again _ accelerated by the field and in turn cause other ionizations. This _ avalanche process leads to very large current and the junction is said to have suffered a breakdown. In ordinary diodes, these breakdown will destroy the diodes use of overheating due to large current. If diodes are made to such large breakdown currents, then such diodes can be in the breakdown region. These diodes are called zener a Fig. 3.7 3.7 shows the symbol of a zener diode.

For npn EMITTER COLLECTOR ~~ EMITTER COLLECTOR Ip BASE Fig. 3.12 3.6 Transistor Action Consider the emitter-base junction of a transistor is forward biased whereas collector base junction is reverse biased. Since the collector base junction is reverse biased Practically no current flows the emitter base junction is forward S cntirely flows in the collector circuit. Therefore, the current in Circuit depends upon the emitter current. If the emitter qi 's zero, collector current is also zero. If the emitter current is Working of npn transistor — i! Vea Fig. 3.13 Fig. 3.13 shows the npn transistor with the emitter base j forward biased and the collector base junction reverse biased, forward bias causes the electron to flow from n-type emitter to type base. This gives the emitter current I,. As these electron through the base, they recombine with the holes. Since the base lightly doped and very thin, only few electrons (less than 5%) combi with the holes to constitute the base current I,, the remaining ct (95%) cross over the collector region and constitute the coll current |. Thus the entire emitter current flows in the collector It is clear that emitter current is the sum of collector and base current .1.€ eral tg 3.7 Static Characteristics of a Transistor The relationship between the current in transistor electrode # the voltage applied to these electrode is known as static character!

That means the output of these circuits is either high voltage or low voltage. The exact value of the voltage need not be known. It js enough if we distinguish high voltage from low voltage. The other voltages are not permitted. The method of representing the low voltage as 0 and high voltage as | is called positive logic system. The method of representing the high voltage as 0 and low voltage as | is called the negative logic system. In digital circuits, the diodes and the transistors are used as switches to change from one state to the other state. The switch can be closed or opened. Like this, two states can be represented by ON state and OFF state. In positive logic system, the | state is ON the 0 state is OFF. In negative logic system, the | state is OFF and 0 state is ON. 3.9 Decimal System The normal method of counting involves the use of ten digits — a system with a base (or radix) of ten. So this number system is called decimal number system. Our ordinary system of numbers (also called Arabic numerals), has 10 symbols starting from 0, 1, 2, - - - to 9. After attaining the 9" decimal number (9), to write a number greater 9 we combine the decimal digits to get the desired number. The ieee "© © tember afer point called the decimal point has a multiplying , hundreds, etc. Similarly on the factors are called as tenths, 1x 10'+8x 10° 1. The number 18 = 1x ten+ 8 x unit 2. The number 219.15 =2 x 102 +1 x 10'+9x 10°+1x10'+5 x 192 =200+ 10 +9 + 1/10 + 5/100 3.10 Binary system Binary system is another way of counting. As the decimal sys; has a base or radix of ten, the binary system has a base of two, The two numbers or symbols or codes used in this system are “Q” “]>, In the binary system with its two digits 0 and 1, counting j proceeded in the same manner as in the decimal system. Any deci) number can be represented in the binary system by a string of 0 and 1’s. In the binary system the individual digit represents the efficient of 2. The digit position of a binary number h: i i aa. 8 inary er has the following dec Thus the binary number (1101), which i i ‘ ich decimal number 13 can be expressed a all a ang (1101), = Ix2+1x24+0x2'4+1x 20 = 1X8+1+44+0x2+1x] = 844404] = 13 can be expressed as XB+OXP+Ox M4] x 704 Px 24+1x2?

Byte is a string of 8 bits such | as 1101 1110, 11111001 etc. Nibble is a string of 4 bits such as 1101, Ji1I etc. A group of bits is called a word or code. 3.11 Decimal to binary conversion A decimal number can be converted into a binary number by double dabble method. It is also known as “divide by two” method. In this method, the given decimal number is divided by 2 progressively and the remainders are written by the side. These remainders taken from the bottom to the top gives the number in the binary form : 1 Convert (23),, into its equivalent binary form uivalent binary number : 2C (0.72),9 into ed Example : 2 Conver case each number 1S = ths sin The carries taken from top '0 the bottom dir is taken as y ey give the required number in binary form. = 1,44 = 0.44 with carry 1 = 0,88 = 0.88 with carry 0 0.88 x2 = 1.76 = 0.76 with carry | 0.76 x2 = 1.52 = 0.52 with carry 1 0.52 x 2 = 1.04 = 0.04 with carry 1 It goes on like this. As the positional values become insi, hereafter they may be ignored. ©. (0.72),9= (0.10111), nearly If more accuracy is needed, continue multiplying by 2 many digits as required are obtained. Example : 3 Convert (17.75), into binary number Here we first split the number 17.75 into an integer 1 fraction 0.75.

If there is no end- around carry, the answer is the 1’s complement of the added result obtained and prefix minus sign to it. Thus the answer of subtraction is negative.
