Valance Electrons- The electrons in the outermost shell of an atom are called Valence electrons. Energy Levels- Electrons revolve around the nucleolus in different shells. These electrons are bound tothe nucleus with some specific energy. Each electron shell exhibits a particular energy value called thediscrete energy level.The discrete energy levels depend on the following parameters
Momentum of electrons in the orbits. Distance of the orbit from the nucleus.
The energy levels of various shells are calculated using a simplified general formula:
En = - eV
eV (Electron volt) - It is the energy gained by an electron when it passes through a potential difference ofone volt. 1eV= 1.6 x 10 -19 Joule.
S.No. Shell N Energy Level
1 K-Shell 1 -13.6 eV
2 L-Shell 2 -3.41 eV
3 M-Shell 3 -1.51 eV
4 N-Shell 4 -0.87 eV
5 O-Shell 5 -0.56 eVThe Negative sign in equation indicates that the electrons are bounded to the nucleus with an
attractive force. The energy gap between two consecutive shell is called the forbidden gap : an electron inan isolated atom cannot have an energy in the gap.
Energy Band- The energy bands in solid can be as a set of energy levels closely placed such that theenergy band are considered to continuous ranges of permissible electron energy.

Valence Band- The electrons in the outermost shell are called valence electrons, Consequently, Theenergy band associated with the outermost shell is known as the valence band.
The valence electrons are loosely bonded with the nucleus: therefore, a small amount ofexternal energy is sufficient to free them from their atom.Conduction Band- When the valence electrons are freed from the atom, these free electrons areresponsible for the conduction of current in solids and are therefore called conduction electrons / freeelectrons. The bond occupied by these electrons is called the conduction band .
Therefore, the loosely bound valence electrons jump from the valence band to the conduction bandwhen sufficient external energy is supplied to the atoms.
The gap between valence band and conduction band is called the forbidden energy gap(Eg).
Eg > 5 eV Eg < 3 eV Eg = 0 eV Examples Eg for Glass= 10 eV Eg for silicon = 0.72 eV All Metals
Eg for Diamond = 6 eV Eg for Germanium = 1.1 eVEg for GaAs = 1.41 eV
Semiconductors
A semiconductor is a material which has electrical conductivity between that of a conductor such as copper and that of an insulator such as glass.
The conductivity of a semiconductor material increases with increasing temperature. All the elements of IV group of periodic table are semiconductors (C,Si,Ge) etc. The energy band gap between valence band and conduction band is less than 3 eV There are two types of semiconductor material
Intrinsic or Pure semiconductors.Extrinsic or Doped Semiconductor.

Intrinsic Semiconductors -An intrinsic semiconductor material is chemically very pure and possesses poor conductivity. It has equal numbers of negative carriers (electrons) and positive carriers (holes).
Fig: Structure of intrinsic semiconductor Fig:Generation of electron-hole pair in an atabsolute zero temperature Intrinsic semiconductor
Extrinsic Semiconductor- The conductivity of intrinsic semi-conductor can be increased by adding somesuitable impurity atoms to the semiconductor. When a small amount of impurity atom is added to theintrinsic semiconductor, it is called extrinsic or impurity semi-conductor and the process of addingimpurities to the semiconductor is known as doping.
P-Type- When a trivalent impurity atom is added to an intrinsic semiconductor, it is called P-typesemiconductor. trivalent impurities are Boron, Aluminum, Gallium and Indium. They are known asacceptor impurities because the holes created can accept the electrons.
P-Type Semiconductor: - a) Boron added to Silicon, b) Creation of a hole.
N-Type- When a pentavalent impurity atom is added toan intrinsic semiconductor, it is called N-typesemiconductor. pentavalent atoms are phosphorus,arsenic and antimony. They are called donor impurities
because they donate one valence electron to thesemiconductor crystal.

P-N Junction Diode
Made by joining P-Type and N-Type Semiconductors Two terminal device Unidirectional Device Non Linear Device Basic Operation- as a SWITCH in electronic devices Applications: Rectifier, Zener Diode, Clipper , Clamper etc
Unbiased P-N Junction Diode- (V= 0 V) A P-NJunction formed by injecting P-Type and N-Typeimpurity atoms into the two halves of a single intrinsicsemiconductor crystal is called unbiased P-N-Junction .The concentrations of the electrons and holes aredifferent across the junction. This is known asconcentration gradient ; due to the concentrationgradient across the junction, some changes start taking
place as the P-N junction is formed.
The holes from the P-region cross the junction & the N-region where there is a scarcity of holes.This is because the P-N junction tries to have an equal number of holes on both sides of the junction.This process is called diffusion.
As soon as a hole from the P-region crosses the junction into the N-region, it confronts a freeelectron generated by a donor ion. This hole recombines with the free electron, and the free electronvanishes. The corresponding donor ion is now left without any electron associated with it. This donor ionis called an uncovered charge. In this manner a large number of uncovered positive charges are producednear the junction in the N-region.
The electrons from the N-region diffuse into the P-region due to the concentration gradient across the junction.These electrons are recombined with the free holesassociated with immobile acceptor ions near the junction,uncovered negative charges are produced in the P-regionclose to the junction.
The uncovered negative charges create a negativeelectric field in the P-region & the uncovered positivecharges create a positive electric field in the N-region .
Now, if positively charged holes try to cross the junctioninto the N-region, the positive field repels them back intothe P-region. Similarly the electrons are prevented fromcrossing the junction from N-region to the P-region, due toa repelling force exerted from the uncovered negativecharges in the P-region.

After some time, the transportation of mobile charges, electrons & holes stops due to a negativeelectric field in the P-region and a positive electric field in the N-region.
Depletion Region- The region of uncovered positive and negative ions is called the depletion region dueto the “ depletion” of free carriers in the region.“ In the absence of an applied bias across a semiconductordiode, the net flow of charge in one direction is zero.”
VB = 0.3V for GeVB = 0.7V for Si
Reverse Bias Condition (V< 0V) – when the negativeterminal of the DC source is connected to the P-side & thepositive terminal of the DC source is connected to N-sideof the P-N junction. The P-N junction is known as areverse biased junction .
1- The Current does not flow because of majority carrier.2- Due to an increase in positive & negative ions around the junction, the electric field around the
junction is increases, and as a result, the height of the potential barrier is increased. 3- The current that exist under reverse bias condition is called the reverse saturation current & is
represented by I s. (Because of minority carriers only )
Forward Bias Junction (V>0V)- If the positive terminal ofthe voltage source is connected to the P-side & thenegative terminal of the source is connected to the N-sideof the diode, then the diode is said to be biased in theforward direction or forward biased .

Forward Bias- When a forward voltage is appliedat the terminals of a diode, the diode begins toconduct. During conduction, the cut in orthreshold voltage exceeds the applied forwardvoltage. The threshold voltage for a germanium
diode is 0.3V and for silicon diode is 0.7V. Theforward current (miliampere range) initiallyincreases linearly and then increasesexponentially for high currents.
Reverse Bias- When a a reverse voltage is applied,a reverse saturation current flows through thediode. The diode continues to be in the nonconducting state until the reverse voltage dropsbelow the zener voltage. As the reverse voltageapproximates the peak inverse voltage abreakdown called as the ’Avalanche breakdown ’occurs. During the breakdown, the minoritycharge carriers ionize the stable atoms which arefollowed by a chain ionization to generate a largenumber of free charge carriers. Thus the diodebecomes short circuited and gets damaged.
Temperature Effect on V-I Characteristics
As the temperature increases, the electron pairs generated thermally also increases thereby increasingthe conductivity in both directions. The reverse saturation current also increases with the increase in
temperature. The change is 11% per °C for a germanium diode and 8% per °C for a silicon diode. On theother hand the diode current is doubled for every 10°C rise. With increase in voltage, the firing voltagein forward characteristics is reduced while peak reverse voltage is increased.

Diode Equation
The current that flows through a diode is given by the equation:
where I D - diode current. (Positive for forward and negative for reverse)IS - constant reverse saturation currentV - Applied voltage. (Positive for forward and negative for reverse)
- Factor dependent upon the nature of semiconductor.(1 for germanium and 2 for silicon)
VT - volt equivalent of temperature which is given by T/11600. (T isTemperature in Kelvin)
Diode CapacitanceStorage or Diffusion Capacitance- This capacitance originates due to diffusion of charge carriers in theopposite regions. The capacitance which exist in a forward-biased junction is called a diffusion orstorage capacitance. It is called diffusion capacitance to account for the time delay in moving chargesacross the junction by diffusion process.
CD = Where C D = Diffusion capacitance
η = Constant *1 for Si and 2 for Ge+ VT = volt equivalent of temperatureτ = mean life time of carrierIF = Forward current
Hence CD is proportional to I D .
Depletion or Transition Capacitance - The capacitance which appears between positive ion layer in n-region and negative ion layer in p-region. The transition capacitance is very small as compared to thediffusion capacitance.
When a PN junction is formed, there exists a depletion region at the junction. thisdepletion region or layer consist of positive and negative immobile ions. This depletion layer is nonconductive and hence acts as a dielectric medium between P-region and N-region.In reverse bias transition, the capacitance is the dominant and is given by:
where C T - transition capacitanceA - diode cross sectional area
W - depletion region width
Since the depletion layer width (d) increases withincrease in reverse bias voltage, the depletioncapacitance should decrease with the increase inreverse bias.
Diode capacitance is given by

Diode ResistanceStatic Resistance or DC resistance- Static Resistance is basically the DC resistance offered by a pn junction diode and originates when it is connected in a DC circuit. It is the resistance offered by thediode to the flow of DC current.
Mathematically, it is given as the ratio of the DC voltage across the terminals of
the diode to the DC current flowing through it.Rf = =
Dynamic Resistance or AC resistance- Dynamic Resistance is the AC resistance offered by a pn junctiondiode and originates when it is connected in an AC circuit. It is the resistance offered by the diode to theflow of AC current.
Mathematically, it given as the ratio of the change in AC voltage across theterminals of the diode to the resulting change in AC current flowing through it.
Rf = =
Breakdown Mechanism
If the reverse-bias applied to a P-N junction is increased; a point will reach when the junction breaks
down and reverse current rises sharply to a value limited only by the external resistance connected inseries. This specific value of the reverse bias voltage breakdown voltage (V Z). After breakdown voltagedepends upon the width of depletion layer. The width of depletion layer depends upon the dopinglevel.The following two processes cause junction breakdown due to the increase in reverse bias voltage.
1- Zener Breakdown-
Occurred when a heavily doped junction is reverse biased.This is observed at V< 6 V.Field Ionization (E= 3 x 10 6 V/cm) takes place in this mechanism.Tunneling of electrons [ the valence electrons are pulled into conduction band]V-I characteristics with zener breakdown is very sharp.
Negative temperature coefficient. (When T increases V Z decreases)
Tunneling Process- Due to intense electric field (E= 3 x 10 6 V/cm), the valence electrons are pulled intoconduction band by breaking covalent bonds. These electrons become free electrons which are availablefor conduction. A large no. of such free electrons will constitute a large reverse current through the zenerdiode and breakdown is said to have occurred due to the zener effect. A current limiting resistance should
be connected in series with the zener diode to protect it against the damage due to excessive heating.

2- Avalanche Breakdown-
Occurred when a lightly doped junction is reverse biased.Multiplication of electrons takes place in avalanche breakdown.This is observed at V> 8 V
Impact Ionization.This V-I characteristics with the avalanche breakdown increases gradually.Positive temperature coefficient of voltage. (When T increases V Z increases).
Impact Ionization - In reverse biased condition, the conduction will take place only due to minoritycarriers. As we increase the reverse voltage applied to the zener diode, these minority carriers tends toaccelerate. Therefore, the kinetic energy ( ) associated with them increases. While travelling, theseaccelerated minority carriers will collide with the stationary atoms and impart some of the kinetic energyto the valence electrons present energy these valence electrons will break their covalent bonds and jumpinto the conduction bond to become free for conduction. Now these newly generated free electrons getaccelerated. They will knock out some more valence electrons by means of collision. This phenomenon iscalled as carrier multiplication. In a very short time, a large number of free minority electrons and holeswill be available for conduction and carrier multiplication process become self sustained. This selfsustained multiplication is called “ avalanche effect” .a large reverse current starts flowing through thezener diode and the avalanche breakdown is said to have occurred.
Zener Diode
Zener diode is a reverse biased heavily doped P-N junction diode which operates in the breakdownregion. The reverse breakdown of a P-N junction may occur either due to zener effect or avalanche effect.
Conduction direction of zener diode - For the zener diode thedirection of conduction is opposite to that of the arrow in thesymbol. Zener diode equivalent circuit-

The complete equivalent circuit of the zener diode in the zener region includes a small dynamicresistance and dc battery equal to the zener potential. Generally, the zener resistance value is quite smallthan external resistance of the circuit in which zener diode is connected. Therefore zener resistance may
be neglected generally.
On State (V>V Z)
If the reverse bias voltage across a zener diode is equal to or more than breakdownvoltage V Z, the current will increase sharply. Hence, in this region the current will be almost vertical.

If there is no load is connected across the output then theoutput voltage is equal to 2V m . However, if the load is connected then the voltage will beless than 2V m . the peak inverse voltage ( PIV) across each diode , in a full wave voltagedoubler is equal to 2V m.

Figure (a) shows the circuit of a positive clipper. Itconsists of a diode D and a resistor R with outputtaken across the resistor. During positive half cycle the input voltage, the terminal A is positive withrespect to B. This reverse biases the diode and it acts as an open switch. Therefore all the appliedvoltage drops across the diode and none across the resistor. As a result of this, there is no outputvoltage during the positive half cycle of the input voltage.
During the negative half cycle of the input voltage, the terminal B is positive with respect to A. Thereforeit forward biases the diode and it acts as a closed switch. Thus, there is no voltage drop across diode.During negative half cycle of the input voltage. All the input voltage is drop across the resistor as shownin the output waveform.Figure (b) shows the waveform of the input voltage. During the positive half cycle of the voltage, theterminal A is positive with respect to the terminal B. Therefore the diode is forward biased; as a result allthe input voltage appears across the resistor. During negative half cycle of the input voltage, theterminal B is positive with respect to the terminal A. Therefore the diode is reverse biased and hencethere is no voltage drop across the resistor during negative half cycle.
Clamping
A clamper is a network constructed of a diode, a resistor and a capacitor that shifts a waveform to adifferent dc level without changing the appearance of the applied signal.
Analysis- During reverse biased, the diode is open circuited (i.e“off”state). The voltage will be Vo=0since the current is shorted through diode. The voltage across R will be V DC+ VC= -V+(-V)=-2V .

Mathematically ε = permittivity of semiconductorA= area of cross sectionW= width of depletion region.
As the reverse biased applied to the diode increases, the width of the depletion region (W) increases.Thus the transition capacitance C T decreases.

Due to the depletion region, an electron penetrates through the barrier. This is called tunneling &hence such high impurity density P-N junction devices are called tunnel diodes.
Characteristics of tunnel diodeCharacteristics shows that at first forward current rises sharply as voltage is applied up to point P. Thevoltage associated with this point P is called as peak voltage V P & current associated with this point is
called as peak current I P.As the forward bias is increased further, the forward current drops continuously up to point V. Thevoltage & current associated with this point is called as valley voltage(V V) & Valley Current (I V)respectively. If voltage is increased further, the current through diode increases at shown in figure.When tunnel diode is reverse biased. It acts as a good conductor.
Fig: Tunnel Diode Characteristics
Tunnel Diode Construction- Semiconductor material used in tunnel diode is germanium (Ge), galliumantimonide (GaSb) or Gallium arsenide (GaAs).

The liquid crystals are one of the most fascinating material systems in nature, having propertiesof liquids as well as of a solid crystal. The term liquid crystal refers to the fact that there
compounds have a crystalline arrangement of molecules, yet they flow like a liquid. Liquid crystal display do not emit or generate light, but rather alter extremely generated
illumination. Their ability to modulate light when electrical signal is applied has made them very
useful is flat panel display technology. The crystal is made up of organic molecules which are rod-like molecule defines the “director”
of the liquid crystal. The different arrangements of these rod like molecules leads to three main categories of liquid
crystals
1- Smectic 2- Nematic 3- Cholesteric
Smetic- In this structure the rod-like molecules are arranged in layers & within each layer there isorientational order over a long range.Nematic- In this structure, the potential order between layer of molecules is lost, but the orientationorder is maintained.Cholesteric - In these crystals the rod-like molecules in each layer are oriented at a different anglewithin each layer.

In the absence of the electrical signal , orientation order is maintained in the crystal allowing light to
transmit. This makes LCD display clear.
2-Field Effect Display-In these nematic liquid crystals are used.It consists of two glass plates, a liquid crystal fluid, polarizers & transparent conductors.The liquid crystal fluids sandwiched between two glass plates.Each glass plate is associated with light polarizer; the light polarizers are placed at right angle toeach other.
Advantages of LCDs Disadvantages of LCDs Less power consumption. Poor reliability.Low cost. Limited temperature range.Uniform brightness with good contrast. Poor visibility in low ambient temperature.Low operating voltage & current. Slow speed.

Field Effect Transistor (FET) is a voltage controlled device . i.e. the output characteristics ofthis device are controlled by the input voltage and not by the input current.
FET is unipolar device. i.e. the operation of FET depends upon the flow ofmajority carriers only. For the FET, an electric field is established by the charges present thatwill control the conduction path of the output circuit without the need for direct contactbetween the controlling and controlled quantities.
JFET (Junction Field Effect Transistor)- JFET is a three terminal device with one terminal capable of controllingthe current between the other two.There are two types of JFET
1- N-channel JFET 2- P-Channel JFETN-channel JFET- It consists of an N-type semiconductor substrate with P-typeheavily doped regions diffused on opposite sides of its middle part. The spacebetween the junctions is called a channel. The top of the N-type channel isconnected through an ohmic contact to a terminal referred to as the Drain(D),while lower end of the same material is connected through an ohmic contactto a terminal referred to as the source(S). The Two P-type materials areconnected together and to the gate (G) terminal. In the absence of any appliedpotentials the JFET has two P-N junctions under No-Bias Conditions.
JFET Volt-Ampere (V-I) Characteristics
There are two types of JFET Characteristics1- Drain Characteristics 2- Transfer Characteristics
Drain Characteristics-Case-1 - When VGS= 0 V and VDS= 0 V.In this condition the drain current is zero. Fig: N-Channel Case-2 - When VGS =0 V and VDS > 0 V. i.e. some positive value.
The gate and source are connected directly i.e. V GS = 0 V. In this situation I D= IS (i.e. VDS= VDD).Under this condition the flow of charge is relatively uninhabited and limited only by resistance of the N-Channelbetween drain and source.Depletion region is wider near the drain side as compared to source side because when current lows in siliconbar, there occurs a voltage drop across the channel along whole length due to this bias voltage.

Pinch-Off- If VDS is increased to a level where it appears that the two depletion regions would “touch” , thiscondition referred to as “ pinch-off “ will result. The drain to source voltage (V DS) at which the channel pinchoff occurs, is known as pinch-off voltage (V P). IDSS- IDSS is the maximum drain current for a JFET and is defined by the conditions VGS=0 V and V DS> |V P|.
Fig: Drain Characteristics when V GS = 0V
Case -3 – When VGS< 0 V and VDS>0.
Under this condition P-N Junction being reverse biased andincrease the width of the depletion layer. Now, If V GS is increased morenegatively then the situation of pinch-off occurs. At this instant, I Dmax alsodecreases because channel becomes narrower due to reverse bias.

Important points regarding drain characteristics of N-channel JFET.Drain current is maximum when V GS = 0 V i.e. ID = IDSS and V DS ≥ |V P|.In FET, generally avalanche breakdown occurs.VP is a particular value of V GS with either positive or negative sign dependaing upon the type of the FET.i.e. whether it is P-Channel or N-Channel.
For P-Channel V P is positive.For N-Channel V P is negative.

1- Depletion Type MOSFET
N-Channel- A slab of P-Type material is formed from a silicon baseand is referred to as the substrate. The source (S) and drain (D)terminals are connected through metallic contacts to N-doped regionslinked by an N-channel. The Gate is also connected to a metal contact
surface but remains insulated from the N-Channel by a thin silicondioxide (SiO 2) layer.
This SiO 2 layer acts as a dielectric that sets upopposing electric fields within the dielectric when exposed to anexternally applied field.
“There is no direct electrical connection between the gate terminal& the channel of a MOSFET” “ It is the insulating layer of SiO 2 in the MOSFET concentration thataccounts for very desirable high input impedance of the device”.
Working
Case-1- VGS = 0 V and VDS > 0 the result is an attractionfor the positive potential at the drain by the free electrons of theN-channel and a current similar to that established through thechannel of the JFET.
Case-2- VGS = -ve and VDS > 0 In this case, electronsmove towards P-type substrate & attracts holes from P-typesubstrate.Depending on the magnitude of the negative bias established byVGS, a level of recombination between electrons and holes willoccur that will reduce the number of free electrons in the N-channel available for conduction. The resulting level of draincurrent is therefore reduced with increasing negative bias for V GS.
Case-3- VGS = +ve and VDS > 0 For +ve value of V GS , thepositive gate will draw additional electrons (free carriers ) from thep-type substrate due to the reverse leakage current andestablished new carriers through the collisions resulting betweenaccelerating particles.

2- Enhancement type MOSFET
N-Channel- the N-channel enhancement type MOSFET consists of alightly doped P-type substrate into which two highly doped N-regionsare diffused. The absence of a channel between the two N-dopedregion.
Case-1- V GS= 0 V If VGS is set at 0 V and a voltage applied betweenthe drain and source of the device, the absence of an N-channel willresult in a current (I D) effectively 0 A.Case-2- When both V GS > 0 V and V DS> 0 V when both V GS and V DShave been set at positive voltage greater than 0V., establishing thedrain and gate at a positive potential with respect to the source.
As the positive potential is applied between gate & source dueto the presence of SiO 2 layer which acts as a dielectric, is attracts thecharge carriers (electrons) from substrate.As VGS increases in magnitude the concentration of electrons near
the SiO 2 surface increases until eventually the induced N-type regioncan support a measurable flow between drain & source, resulting theformation of inversion layer, this inversion layer. This inversion layeris formed when a certain gate to source voltage (V GS) is applied. Thus,the minimum value of gate voltage at which inversion ofsemiconductor surface takes place is known as threshold voltage(VT).Since the channel is no-existent with V GS= 0V and “enhanced” bythe application of a positive gate to source voltage. This type ofMOSFET is called Enhancement type MOSFET.

Block-Diagram of Op-Amp
1. Input Stage:- The input stage is the dual input balance output (DIBO) differential amplifier. This stagegenerally provides most of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also established the input resistanceto the Op-Amp.
2. Intermediate Stage: this stage is usually another differential amplifier, which is driven by the output ofthe first stage. In most of amplifier this stage is dual input unbalanced output.
3. Level Shifting Stage (LSS): The level shifting circuit is used after the intermediate stage to shift the dclevel at the output of the intermediate state downward to zero with respect to ground.
4. Output stage: this is final stage which is usually consist of a push-pull complementary amplifier. Theoutput stage increase the output voltage swing and raise the current supplying capability of the Op-Amp..

Transostorised Differential Amplifier
The transistorized differential amplifier basically uses the emitter biased circuits which are identical incharacteristics.The two transistors Q 1 and Q 2 have exactly matchedcharacteristics. R C1 = RC2 and R E1 = RE2 .+VCC and –VEE are also same. The differential amplifier canbe obtained by using such two emitter baised circuits. Thisis achieved by connecting emitter E 1 of Q 1 to the emitter E 2 of Q 2.Due to this, R E1 appears in parallel with R E2 and thecombination can be replaced by a single resistancedenoted as R E. The base B 1 of Q 1 connected to input 1which is V S1 while the base B 2 of Q 2 is connected to theinput 2 which is V S2. The balanced output is taken betweenthe collector C 1 of Q 1 and the collector C 2 of Q 2 . Such anamplifier is called emitter coupled differential amplifier.The two collector resistances are same hence can bedenoted by R C.

Common mode operation - In this mode, thesignals applied to the base Q 1 and Q 2 are derivedfrom the same source. So the two signals are equal

Cathode Ray Oscilloscope is probably the most versatile tool for development of electronic circuits and systems.
CRO allows the amplitude of electrical signals, whether they are voltage, current or power to be displayedas a function of time . CRO depends on the movement of an electron beam, which is bombarded on the screen,coated with a fluorescent material, to produce a visible spot. If the electron beam is deflected on both theconventional axis. I.e. X-axis & Y-axis, atwo dimensional display is produced.“The oscilloscope is a kind of voltmeter which uses beam instead of a pointer and a kind of recorder which uses anelectron beam. ”
The heart of CRO is cathode ray tube (CRT) which makes the applied signal visible by the deflectionof a thin beam of electrons.
Fig: Cathode Ray Tube
Constructional features of CRT
1- Glass Envelope - It is conical highly evacuated glass covering & maintains vacuum inside & support thevarious electrodes. The inner walls of CRT between neck & screen are coated with conducting materialscalled aquadag . This coating is electrically connected to the accelerating anode so that electrons whichaccidentally strikes.
2- Electron Gun Assembly- Electron gun in CRT is combined name for indirectly heated cathode , a control grid ,a focusing anode & an accelerating anode . The control grid is held at negative potential w.r.t. cathodewhereas the two anodes are maintained at high positive potential w.r.t. cathode.
3- Control Grid- Control grid in the CRT is cylindrical with a small aperture in line with the cathode. Theelectrons emitted from the cathode emerge from this. The negative bias voltage applied to the grid, controlsthe beam current. The intensity (or brightness) of spot depends on the beam current. There are two anodes Focusing Anode (Focuses the beam) and Accelerating Anode (accelerates/incresesthe speed of beam)
4- Focusing Anode- The beam of electron is converged and focused on the screen by two anodes, which form anelectronic lens. The first anode ( focusing anode ) is kept highly position with respect to the cathode, widercylinder following the first. Both the cylinders have narrow apertures in lines with the electron beam.
5- Accelerating Anode- The second anode is still operated at higher positive potential (about 10,000V) and doesmost of the acceleration of the beam, and increases in velocity.
6- Deflection Plate Assembly- Electrostatic deflection of an electron beam is used in a general purpose oscilloscope. The deflecting system consists of a pair of horizontal (H 1& H2) and vertical deflecting plates (V 1& V2).
When the plates are at zero voltage, the beam is midway between them and the spot is in thecentre of the screen.

7- Screen- screen is coated with fluorescent material such as Zinc Orthosilicate, Zinc Oxide etc. The bombardingelectrons striking the screen, release secondary emission electrons. These electrons are collected or trappedby an aqueous solution of graphite called “ Aquadag ” which is connected to the second anode.Collectio n ofthe secondary electrons is necessary to keep the screen in a state of electrical equilibrium.
Block Diagram Of CRO
The CRO consists of the following component:(i) CRT (ii) Vertical amplifier (iii) Delay line (iv) Horizontal amplifier (v) Time-base generator(vi)Triggering circuit (vii) Power supply
(i) CRT- This is a cathode ray tube which emits electrons that strikes the phosphor screen internally toprovide a visible display of signals.
(ii) Vertical Amplifier- Vertical amplifier determines the sensitivity and bandwidth of an oscilloscope.Sensitivity, which is expressed in terms of V/cm of vertical deflection at the mid-band frequency.
(iii) Delay Line- It is used to delay the signal for some time in the vertical sections till the time horizontalamplifier also receives signal.
(iv) Time-Base Generators- The CRO is used to display a waveform that varies as a function of time. If thewave form is to be accurately reproduced, the beam should have a constant horizontal velocity. It is used
to generate the saw tooth voltage required to deflect the beam in the horizontal section.(v) Horizontal Amplifier- This is used to amplify the saw tooth voltage before it is applied to horizontaldeflection plates.
(vi) Trigger Circuit- This is used to convert the incoming signal into trigger pulses so that the input signal andthe sweep frequency can be synchronized.
(vii) Power Supply- There are two power supplies, a – Ve high voltage (HV) supply and a +ve low voltage (LV)supply. The –Ve supply is from -1000V to -1500V. This voltage is passed through a bleeder resistor at afew mA. The intermediate voltages are obtained from the bleeder resistor for intensity, focus andpositioning controls resistor for intensity.

Working of CRO: The electron beam generated from an electron gun will be accelerated toward a phosphorousscreen by a potential difference between the electron gun and the screen. As the beam emerges from the gun, itpasses through a set of parallel plates (the vertical deflection plates ) oriented horizontally. The voltage to bedisplayed is amplified by a vertical amplifier , and applied across these plates producing an electric field whichdeflects the path of the electron vertically. The polarity of the signal determines whether the deflections will be up ordown and the magnitude of the signal determines the amount of vertical displacement of the electrons. After the
beam has passed through the vertical deflection Plates, it passed through a second set of similar plates that areoriented horizontally. A potential difference applied to these plates produce an electric field which deflects left orright. Under normal configuration, these horizontal deflection plates are connected to a time-base circuitry. Thiscircuit can control how fast the electron beam sweeps from the left to right (use Sweep Knob). Adjusting the sweepspeed, the resulting trace on the screen can be spread out or compressed.
Types of CRO1- Dual Beam CRO 2- Dual Trace CRO
Application of CRO(a) Examination of waveforms. (b) Voltage measurement. (c) Current measurement.(e) Frequency measurement. (f) Phase measurement.
Measurement of voltage and currentVoltage Measurement- For measurement of direct voltage, firstly the spot on the screen without applying any voltagesignal in the deflection plates. Then direct voltage to be measures is applied between a pair of deflection plates anddeflection of the spot is observed on the screen. The magnitude of the deflection multiplied by the deflection factorgives the values of direct voltage applied.Current Measurement- For measurement of current, the current under measurement is passed through a knownnon-conductive resistance and the voltage drop across it is measured by CRO. The current can be determined simplyby dividing the voltage drop measured by the value of non-inductive resistance.Measurement of frequency- The pattern obtained on CRO screen is called Lissajous Pattern. They are stationary onthe screen of CRO. They are used to know unknown frequency of a signal.
The unknown frequency can be accurately determined with the help of a CRO.Steps-
1. A known frequency is applied to horizontal input and unknown frequency to the vertical input.2. The various controls are adjusted.3. A pattern with loops is obtained.4. The number of loops cut by the horizontal line gives the frequency on the vertical plates(f V) and the number
of loops cut by the vertical lines gives the frequency on the horizontal plates(f H).

Digital voltmeter(DVM) is an indicating device. it measures the voltage passing between any two points. DVM is oftenused in data processing system. An ideal voltmeter has an infinitely high input resistance so that it does not draw anycurrent from the circuit.
RAMP TECHNIQUE-The block diagram of a ramp type digital voltmeter has three stages.Signal propagation - It modifies the signal amplitude according to the requirement and it also protects fromloading. Hence, resistive attenuator is used to decrease the large incoming signal and amplifier is used toamplify the small incoming signal to the measurable range.Analog to digital conversion - it converts analog information to digital or in discrete form.Display Unit- It displays the measured value of voltage via display devices.

Deflection Sensitivity of CRT- The shift of spot of light on the screen per unit change in voltage across the deflectionplates is known as deflection sensitivity of CRT.
The deflection sensitivity depends not only on the design of the tube but also on the voltage appliedto the accelerating anode. The deflection sensitivity is low at high accelerating voltages and vica-versa.
Example-1: The deflection sensitivity of a CRT is 0.01 mm/V . Find the shift produced in the spot when 400 Vis appliedto the plate (vertical).Solution: voltage is applied to vertical plates so spot moves vertically.
Spot Shift = deflection sensitivity x Applied VoltageSpot shift= 0.01 x 400 = 4 mm
Example-2: The deflection sensitivity of a CRT is 0.03 mm/V. If an unknown voltage is applied to horizontal plates.The spot shifts 3 mm horizontally. Find the values of unknown voltage.
Solution: Sensitivity=
Applied voltage = =100 V
Example-3: The vertical gain control of a CRO is set at a deflection sensitivity of 5V/cm. the unknown a.c. voltage issupplied to Y- input. A 10cm long straight line trace is observed. Find a.c. voltage.Solution: Unknown voltage = sensitivity x length of trace = 5 x 10 = 50 V.
This 50V is peak to peak voltage value so, for only one direction either positive or negative is
Vpeak= = = 25 V
RMS value of 25V = = = 17.667 V
Example-4: Find the unknown frequency for the following pattern. When f h = 100Hz.
=4
So , fv(Unknown frequency) = 4 x f h =4 x 100 =400 Hz

ModulationIt is defined as the process by which some characteristics of signal called “CARRIER” is varied in accordance w ith a‘modulating signal’ or ‘base -band signal’ or ‘message signal’. The result of the modulation process is referred as‘modulated wave’ . At the receiving end of the system we reconstruct the original base-band signal & this isaccomplished by using a process called “DEMODULATION”.“Demodulation” is the reverse process of “Modulation”.
Continuous Wave Modulation
Amplitude Modulation (AM) Angle Modulation
Frequency Modulation (FM) Phase Modulation (PM)
In AM, the maximum amplitude of the high frequency carrier wave isvaried in accordance to the instantaneous value (amplitude) of themodulating or base-band signal.
Equation for AM : Let C(t) = Ac Cos ω ct …………….is a carrier wave havingWhere A c= carrier amplitude ω c= carrier frequency
& m(t)=modulating signal band limited to maximum frequency ‘ω m’. Hence ω c=2πf c >> ω m Now the AM wave is described as
Where, A=A c +m(t)
So,
= Ac[1+Kam(t)] Cos ω ct Where Ka= constant called amplitude sensitivity of modulation Also, we can write
Sinusoidal AM: Let C(t) = Ac Cos ω ct ……….……Carrier Wave m(t) = A m Cos ω mt …………. Modulating Wave Then after modulation, we get X AM(t)= A Cos ω ct Where A= Ac + Am Cos ω mt
So we get,
so, Where m a= = modulation index
Frequency Spectrum: The Modulated carrier has new signals at different frequencies, called side frequencies or
XAM(t)= A Cos ω ct
XAM(t)= [Ac +m(t)] Cos ω ct
XAM(t)= Ac Cos ω ct + m(t) Cos ω ct
XAM(t)= [Ac + Am Cos ω mt] Cos ω ct XAM(t)= Ac [1+ Cos ω mt] Cos ω ct
