Oscilloscope
Using an Oscilloscopecan be easy! The less you ask from it, the easier it is to use.
Work in any circuits & electronics lab relies heavily on the use of the digital multi-
meter (DMM), the Oscilloscope, and the Function Generator. You have already
gained some experience with the DMM; in this experiment we want you to become
familiar with the Oscilloscope.
The Oscilloscope is simply the most useful instrument available for testing circuits
because it allows you tosee(observe) the signals at different points in the circuit. Thebest way of investigating an electronic system is to monitor signals at the input and
output of each system block, checking that each block is operating as expected and is
correctly linked to the next. With a little practice, you will be able to find and correct
faults quickly and accurately. Also it can be employed to measure voltage, frequency
and phase shift. Many other quantities such as pulse width, rise time, fall time and
delay time can be investigated.
The function of an Oscilloscope is very simple. It draws a
V/tgraph, a graph of voltage against time, voltage on the
vertical or Y-axis, and time on the horizontal or X-axis. As
you can see in Figure 1, the screen of an Oscilloscopealmost has 8squares/divisions on the vertical axis, and 10
squares/divisions on the horizontal axis. Usually, these
squares are 1 cm in each direction.
The Oscilloscope has extremely high input impedance (1 M, parallel with 25 pF),
which means it will not significantly affect the input signal. This is nice because you
can use it to test a circuit without having to worry about it causing the circuit to
behave differently. The probes are connected to an Oscilloscope using BNCs( Baby
N- Connector).
An Oscilloscope can be separated into four major sections: 1- Display, 2- Vertical,3- Horizontal and 4- Triggering sections. Table 1 summarized these sections.

Coaxial Cables
The cables you are using to connect the FG and the Scope,
are called coaxial cables, and they contain two coaxial
conductors with characteristic impedance of 50 . The center
or inner (High) conductor carries the signal and the outer
conductor is typically connected to ground (Low) at one or
both ends of the cable. Figure 2 shows a cross section of a
coaxial cable. Properly grounded coaxial cables are reducing
or prevent the noise and interference signals.

Objectives
To be familiar with the basic properties of the junction diodes.
To study the characteristics of the diode and investigate the I-V curve.
To investigate the concept of rectification properities.
Pre-Lab Assignments
Build the circuits in the experiment by using the MultiSIM simulation packages, to
obtain the expected results and graphs.
Theory
The diode is a two-terminal semiconductor device with
a nonlinear i-vcharacteristic. The current flows in only
one direction through the diode from the anode to the
cathode. There are three operating regions for the diode:
Forward biased.
Reverse biased.
Reverse breakdown.
From examining Figure 1, you should note that the Anode (A)corresponds to the P-
type side while the Cathode (K)corresponds to the N-type side of the diode.
The purpose of rectifier circuits is to convert AC voltage to DC voltage. That is, the
current flows through a load in one direction only, {positive or negative with respect
to common (0V or GND) point).
This DC level is the average of the peak load voltage (VP) over a complete period
(360or (2)) which can be expressed for rectified unfiltered sinusoidal signals as a
constant and equals to:- Vav= VDC= VP/= (0.318)VP (for half -wave rectif ication).
- Vav= VDC= 2VP/= (0.636)VP (for fu ll -wave rectifi cation).
The frequency of the rectified output waveform can be expressed as:
- fO= fSource (half -wave rectifi cation).- fO= 2fSource (fu ll -wave rectifi cation).
The percentage ripple can be expressed as:
- Percentage Ripple = ( Vr-PP/ Vav)* 100%.
The purpose of the filter capacitor is to reduce the amount of ripple voltage at theoutput of the rectifier circuit. The capacitor charges to approximately the peak voltage

Objective
To investigate the diodes applications in clipping and clamping circuits.
Note
To observe signal on the Oscilloscope screen, put the Channel coupling is set to DC
not AC.
Pre-Lab Assignments
Build the circuits in the experiment by using the MultiSIM simulation packages, to
obtain the expected results and graphs.
Theory
Clipping and Clamping circuits are circuits that shape or modify an ac waveform.
Diode clipper circuits are also called limiters. They limit or clip off the positive (or
negative) part of an input signal. Clipper circuits are concerned primarily with
limiting or cutting off part of the waveform, due to that they can be used for circuit
protection or waveform shaping.
Diode Clampers add or shift a dc level to an ac signal, and are sometimes known as dc
restorers. For example, if we have a clock signal that swings between 0Vand 5Vbut
our application requires a clock signal from -5Vto 0V, we can provide the proper DC
offset by using a passive Clamper circuit. For the clamping circuit to work properly
the pulse width should be less than the RCtime constant () of the circuit, by a factorof 5approximately. Because of the time constant requirement the voltage across the
capacitor can not change significantly during the pulse width, and after a short
transient period the voltage across the capacitor reaches a steady state offset value.
The output voltage is simply the input voltage shifted by this steady state offset. Also,
observe that the peak-to-peak output voltage is equal to the peak-to-peak input
voltage. Because the voltage across the capacitor can not change instantaneously and
the full change of voltage on the input side of the capacitor will likewise be seen on
the output side of the capacitor.

Objectives
To be familiar with the reverse Zener Diode Characteristic and the application of the
Zener diode as Voltage regulation.
Pre-Lab Assignments
Pre1.What is the difference between a Zener diode and a standard rectifier diode?
Pre2. Build the circuits in the experiment by using the MultiSIM simulation
packages, to obtain the expected results.
Theory
The Zener diode operates in the reverse breakdown region as
shown in Figure 1. The Zener diode has almost a constant
voltage across it as long as the Zener diode current is between
the knee current IZKand the maximum current rating IZM.
Voltage Regulator, a voltage regulator circuit is required to
maintain a constant dc output voltage across the load terminals in
spite of the variation: Variation in input mains voltage(Vs).
Change in the load current(IL)
The voltage regulator circuit can be designed using zener diode.
For that purpose, zener diode is operated always in reverse biased condition. Here,
zener is operated in break down region and is used to regulate the voltage across a
load when there are variations in the supply voltage or load current.
Figure 2 shows the zener voltage regulator, it consists of a current limiting resistor RSconnected in series with the input voltage Vs and zener diode is connected in parallel
with the load RL in reverse biased condition. The output voltage is always selectedwith a breakdown voltage Vz of the diode.
The input source current:
IS= IZ+ IL.. (1)
The drop across the series resistance:
VRs= VSVz.. (2)
And current flowing through it:
Is = (VsVZ) / RS.. (3)From equation (1) and (2), we get:
(Vs - Vz ) / Rs = Iz +IL (4)

7- Zener diode 5V. 8- Connection Wires and coaxial cables.
Regulation with a varying input voltage (line regulation): It is defined as the
change in regulated voltage with respect to variation in line (input) voltage.
In this, input voltage varies but load resistance (RL) remains constant hence, the load
current remains constant. As the input voltage increases, form equation (3) Is also
varies accordingly. Therefore, zener current Iz will increase. The extra voltage is
dropped across the Rs. Since, increased Iz will still have a constant Vz and Vz isequal to Vout. The output voltage will remain constant.
If there is decrease in Vs, Izdecreases as load current remains constant and voltage
drop across Rs is reduced. But even though Iz may change, Vz remains constant
hence, output voltage remains constant.
Regulation with the varying load (load regulation):It is defined as change in load
voltage with respect to variations in load current. To calculate this regulation, input
voltage is constant and output voltage varies due to change in the load resistance
value. Consider output voltage is increased due to increasing in the load current. The
left side of the equation (4) is constant as input voltage Vs, IS and Rs is constant.
Then as load current changes, the zener current Izwill also change but in opposite
way such that the sum of Iz and IL will remain constant. Thus, the load current
increases, the zener current decreases and sum remain constant. From reverse bias
characteristics even Izchanges, Vzremains same hence, and output voltage remains
fairly constant.
Zener diode MUST be operated under load. If not, the Zener may burn.

Theory
A Bipolar Transistor essentially consists of a pair of PN-Junction diodes that are
joined back-to-back. They are found everywhere and used in many electronic circuit
applications such as in sensors, amplifiers, OP-AMPs, oscillators and digital logic
gates. The PC computer contains around a hundred million transistors; or more!.
There are all sorts, shapes, and sizes of transistor. In this lab we will only consider
one basic general purpose type, the bipolar junction transistor. This comes in two
constructions called PNP and NPN. For the following experiments you should use the
BC107 Si, NPN transistors which are available. The BC107 is built into a standard
TO-18package with three leads. Figure 1 below shows what the package looks like
and identifies the leads.

Figure 1
The DMMs in the lab have a separate function for PN-junction testing. In diode test,
the DMM outputs a constant current of about 1 mA and it measures the voltage
between the two leads without computing a resistance. The measured voltage is the
threshold voltage (V, i.e. (0.5- 0.65)V for Si, typically less than the normal drop of
0.7 V) of the PN-junction for a 1 mA current, if the PN-junction is forward biased. Ifthe PN-junction is reverse biased, then the DMM cannot force 1 mA of current into
the PN-junction and the voltage across the PN-junction rises up to the upper range
limit of the DMM, usually about (1.5 to 3.0) Volts. Some meters give an over-limit
(.OL, 1., or2 to3V) indication in this case. Using the diode function of a DMM is
another way to perform the above tests, and it gives more understandable information
about the typical PN-junction voltages of the BJT.
The operation of the BJT transistors is very strongly affected by heat, which is usually
internally generated due to power dissipation. It is advisable, therefore, to limit
transistor heating in this experiment by starting data runs with maximum current andvoltage, when the transistor is still cool, and then progressively reducing the current.
(Note: Transistor currents change due to heating effects even when supply voltages
are kept constant).

Objectives
To investigate the bipolar junction transistor (BJT) applications as simple common-
emitter and common-collector AC amplifiers biased in the active mode and
switching device
Pre-Lab Assignments
Pre1.Simulate all the circuits in the experiment sheet; using the MultiSIM simulation
packages, to verify your results and graphs.
Pre2. Determine RB and RC for the transistor inverter of Figure 3, if: IC-sat> 3mA .(Note that proper design for the inversion process requires the operating point
to be switched from cut-off to saturation region).
Hint: IC-Sat VCC/ RC and IB-max IC-Sat/.(By choosing IB-maxgreater than the value derived from the above equation the
BJT is forced to switch to saturation region. The value of is the average of in from the last experiment).
Theory
A typical integrated circuit (IC) and operational amplifier OP-AMP contains a largenumber of transistors that perform many functions. The simplest way to analyze such
a circuit is to regard each individual transistor as a stage and to analyze the circuit as a
collection of single transistor stages. In this part of the experiment, you will examine
the behavior of some AC single-stage amplifiers with resistors supplying the bias
voltages and currents. In this experiment, two BJT amplifier configurations will be
investigated; the common-emitter, and the common-collector amplifier. Both
amplifiers typically use a self biasing circuit and have a relatively linear output. You
will also measure properties such as voltage gain Av.
Common-Emitter Amplifier
The Common-Emitter (CE) amplifier is characterized by high voltage and currentgains, Av and A i, respectively. The amplifier typically has a relatively high input
resistanceZi (1 to 10 k) and is generally used to drive medium to high resistanceloads. The circuit for the common-emitter used in applications where a small voltage
signal needs to be amplified to a large voltage signal. Since the amplifier cannot drive
low resistance loads RL, if the load RL is low, then usually it is cascaded with a
Common-Collector (CC) (some times called, emitter follower or buffer) circuit that
can act as a driver.
Common-Collector (Emitter follower) Amplifier
The common-collector amplifier (emitter-follower), is a unity voltage gain Avand ahigh current gainA i amplifier. The input resistanceZi for this type of amplifiers is

usually (1 to 10 k). Because the amplifier has unity voltage gain (Av 1), it isuseful as a buffer amplifier providing isolation between two circuits while providing
driving capability for low resistance loads.
BJT Switching Device
The basic element of logic circuits is the transistor switch. In an electronic circuit,
mechanical switches are not used. Transistors can be used as simple electronic
switches or logic gates. A schematic of such a switch mechanically and electronically
is shown in Figure 1.
When Vin= 0.0; is in lowstate, the BJTswitch is OPEN; the transistor is OFF (in
cut-off region), IC= 0.0; providing a constant voltage at collector to emitter, VO= VCE
= VCC(open switch).
When Vinis inhighstate, the BJTswitch is CLOSED, IC= (VCC - VCE-sat) / RC, the
transistor is saturated (in saturation region) (i.e. closed switch) providing a small yetconstant voltage at collector to emitter, VCE-sat 0.2V 0.0 V.
Figure 1
The above BJTcircuit is also called an " inverter"or a " NOT"logic gate. Let's
assume that the lowstate is at 0.2 Vand the highstate is at 5 V, where VCC= 5 V.
When the input voltage Vinis low( 0.0 < Vin< VTh), BJTwill be in cut-off region,and VO= VCC= 5 V(highstate). When input voltageVinis high(Vin>> VTh), with
proper choice of RB, BJTwill be in saturation, and VO= VCE-Sat 0.2 V(lowstate).

Mode of Operation
The operation of a MOSFET can be separated into three different modes, depending
on the voltages at the terminals. For an enhancement mode, n-channel MOSFET,
the three operational modes are:
1-Cutoff mode when VGS< Vth
Where Vth is the threshold voltage of the device. According to the basic thresholdmodel, the transistor is turned off, and there is no conduction between drain and
source.
2- Triode mode or non saturation mode when VGS> Vthand VDS< ( VGS- Vth)
The transistor is turned on, and a channel has been created which allows current to
flow between the drain and the source. The MOSFET operates like a resistor,
controlled by the gate voltage relative to both the source and drain voltages.
3- Saturation or active modewhen VGS> Vthand VDS> ( VGS- Vth)
The drain current is now weakly dependent upon drain voltage, and controlled
primarily by the gate source voltage
The DC behavior of a MOSFET is specified most completely by the output
characteristics, ID vs. VDS, with VGS as a parameter, and the input-outputcharacteristic, IDvs. VGS.
MOSFET drain current vs. drain-to-source voltage for several values of (VGS Vth);the boundary between linear(Ohmic) and saturation(active) modes is indicated by
the upward curving parabola.

Two of the most popular configurations of small-signal MOSFET amplifiers are the
common source (CS) and common drain (CD) configurations.

9- Connection Wires and Coaxial Cables.
The common source and common drain amplifiers, like all MOSFET amplifiers, have
the characteristic of high input impedance. The value of the input impedance for both
amplifiers is basically limited only by the biasing resistors RG1and RG2 as shown in
Figure 2. Values of RG1 and RG2are usually chosen as high as possible to keep the
input impedance high. High input impedance is desirable to keep the amplifier from
loading the signal source. One popular biasing scheme for the CS and CD
configurations consists of the voltage divider RG1 and RG2. This voltage dividersupplies the MOSFET gate with a constant DC voltage. This is very similar to the
BJT biasing arrangement. The main difference with the BJT biasing scheme is that
ideally no current flows from the voltage divider into the MOSFET.
The CS and CD MOSFET amplifiers can be compared to the CE and CC BJT
amplifiers respectively. Like the CE amplifier, the CS amplifier has negative voltage
gain and output impedance approximately equal to the drain resistor (collector resistor
for the CE amplifier). The CD amplifier is comparable to the CC amplifier with the
characteristics of high input impedance, low output impedance, and less than unity
voltage gain.
