THEORY:
An oscillator is a circuit that generates the sinusoidal oscillation output, at frequency ranging from
audio band up to several GHz. In addition, the frequency may be variable. For lower frequencies, the
oscillator usually involves RC component for frequency selection, but for higher frequencies, it rely
upon LC resonant circuits.
The total phase shift of the circuit should be zero. The output should be given in phase with
the input i.e. a positive feedback.
A practical circuit of phase shift oscillator using NPN transistor in common emitter
configuration is as shown in fig. RL is a load resistor in the collector circuit. Rb1 and Rb2 are
bias resistors. The phase shift of signal at input gets reversed when the amplifier amplifies it.
The output of the amplifier goes to the feedback network. The feedback network consists of
the three identical RC section provides a phase shift of 60 o each. Thus the total of the
feedback network provides 3 X 60 = 180 phase shift. The output of the feed back network is
the output of this network is in phase with the original input signal to the amplifier. If the
condition AvK > =1 is met, oscillation will be sustained.
The frequency at which the RC network provides exactly 180o phase shift is given by:
1
F=
2 RC 6+4 (RC /R)
This is the frequency of oscillation. Also it can be shown that at this frequency the
feedback factor of RC network is: K = 1/29, from the Barkhausens criteria we get
Av 29
This means that the gain Av of the amplifier must be greater than 1/29, only then the oscillation can be
started.
Advantages of RC phase shift oscillator:
1. It does need transformer and inductor. So less bulky.
2. Circuit is cheap and simple as contains only resistors and capacitors.
3. Waveform obtained from circuit is exceptionally pure and sinusoidal since core saturation
effect and harmonic distortion are absent as no transformer is used.
4. This circuit can be used to produce very few frequencies.
5. It provides good frequency stability.
Disadvantages of RC phase shift oscillator:
1. It is difficult for circuit to start the oscillation as feedback is generally small. This is
because of reactance of R & C.
2. Due to the small feedback, it gives the small output.
3. Circuit needs high voltage battery. It is because of small feedback to provide sufficient
output.
4. It cannot be used for higher frequencies.
5. It has high gain.

THEORY:
An oscillator is a circuit that generates the sinusoidal oscillation output, at frequency ranging from
audio band up to several GHz. In addition, the frequency may be variable. For lower frequencies, the
oscillator usually involves RC component for frequency selection, but for higher frequencies, it rely
upon LC resonant circuits.
Requirement for oscillation:
1) For linear oscillation i.e. oscillation which are relatively free from distortion, the product of
feedback factor (k) and (Av) should be greater than one K*Av 1
This condition is called the Barkhausen criteria of oscillation.
1) The total phase shift of the circuit should be zero. The output should be given in phase with the
input i.e. a positive feedback.
A practical circuit of Colpitts oscillator using NPN transistor in common emitter
configuration is as shown in fig. R L is a load resistor in the collector circuit. R 1 and R2 are bias
resistors. The phase shift of signal at input gets reversed when the amplifier amplifies it. The output of
the amplifier goes to the feedback network. The feedback network is designed using two capacitors
and an inductor. Voltage across C 2 is 180 out of phase w.r.t. voltage across C 1 and thus 180 phase
shift is provided by the feedback network. However, remaining 180 phase shift is provided by CE
stage so that total phase shift is in the loop is 0 or 360. It uses inductor in parallel with series of
capacitor and acts as filter to pass the desired oscillating frequency and block all other frequencies.

THEORY:
Oscillators are devices, which generate oscillations. The frequency of oscillations depends on
the feedback network. Feedback may be of two types namely positive and negative. In positive
feedback, the feedback signal is applied in phase with the input signal thus increasing it. In negative
feedback, the feedback signal is applied out of phase with the input thus reducing it. The feedback
used in oscillators is positive feedback. The oscillators work on the principle of Barkhausen criteria.
This states that for sustained oscillations
i)
ii) The phase shift around the loop must be 0 deg of 360 deg.
Here Av is the gain of the amplifier and is the attenuation of the feedback network. Consider the
feedback network shown in the fig (1) below. Assume an amplifier with input signal Vin. The output
signal VO will be 180 deg out of phase with Vin. So to get an in phase output, the feedback network
provides 180-deg phase shift. Therefore the output Vf from the feedback network can be made in
phase and equal in amplitude to Vin and Vin can be removed. Even then the oscillations continue.
Practical oscillations do not need any input signal to start oscillations. They are self-starting due to
thermally produced noise in resistors and other components. Only one frequency (fo) of noise
satisfies, Barkhausen
criteria and the circuit oscillates with that frequency. The magnitude of fo keeps on increasing each
time it goes around the loop. The amplification of fo is limited by circuits own non-linearities.
Therefore to start oscillations Av > 1 and to sustain it, the loop gain Av = 1.

The feedback network used here consists of L and C. Consider the circuit shown below fig 2.
This circuit consists of L and C in parallel. The capacitor stores energy in its electric field whenever
there is voltage across it and the inductor stores energy in its magnetic field whenever there is current
through it. Initially let us assume that the capacitor has charged to V volts. When S is closed c= 0.
When S is closed at t = t0 , capacitor starts charging through the inductor. Thus a voltage gets built up
across the inductor due to the change in current through it. If the capacitor was changed with the
polarity as shown in the fig 2 the current starts flowing from the positive plate of the capacitor to the
negativ4 plate of the capacitor. As shown the voltage across the capacitor reduces during the discharge
time v reduces and I increases. At time t1 v will be 0 and I will be maximum as c is fully discharged,
the capacitor charges like sinusoidal oscillations. Thus the circuit oscillates with the frequency

THEORY:
The circuit for Astable Multivibrator is shown in figure above. Since capacitor coupling is used between stages
neither transistor can remain permanently in cut off state. The circuit has two quasi-stable states, it makes
transistor to change continuously between these two states. Therefore, astable circuit is considered as an
oscillator and is used as a generator of square wave and since it requires no triggering signal, is itself often a
basic source of fast waveforms. As one can see the components in one half of the circuit are considered to be
equal to their counterparts in the other half.
a)
When the power is applied, one transistor will conduct more than the other due to some circuit
imbalance. Assume Q 1 is conducting and Q2 is cut off. Then Vc1 the output of Q1,is approximately zero
volt and Vc2 = Vcc.
b) The capacitor C2 will now starter to charge up through Rc and base emitter junction of Q.
c)
Mean while C1 had previously charged up to Vcc through Rc of Q 1 when Q2 was conducting. But now
when Q1 conducts a path is provided for C1 to discharge through Q1 and R1.The initial pulse of
discharge current from C1 through R1 makes the base of Q2 suddenly very negative. (Due to voltage
developed across R1) approximately Vcc, which causes Q2 to go into cut off.
d) The charging current of C2 slowly ceases as the capacitor charges to Vcc. Q 1 is kept in the conducting
state by base current provided from Vcc through R2. So we see that initially that Vb 1 is slightly more
positive because it has two currents flowing through it.
e)
The length of the time for which Q2 is held off is determined by the time constant of discharging of C 1
through Q1. Once the capacitor discharges completely, it starts to charge in the same direction and at
the instant when its voltage reaches the forward bias voltage of Q2, Q2 turns on and state to conduct.
13
f)
At the same instant, C2 is allowed to discharge through Q2 and R 2, coupling a large negative pulse in
the base of Q1 (due to voltage developed across R2 upon initial discharge of C 2). This turns Q1 off
quickly and collector voltage Vc1 rises towards Vcc However, this voltage at collector is less than Vcc,
at this instant due to voltage drop across Rc occurring while C1 is recharging..This is relatively short
time, but it cause a rounding of rising edge in Vc1.
g) Q1 is held in non conducting state for an interval depends upon the R 2 and C2 time constant. After which
Q1 begins to conduct, C1 discharges through Q1.
It should be noted that the turning ON of the one transistor Q 2 and its falling voltage at the collector permits the
discharging of capacitor which drives transistor Q 1 into cut off. The rising voltage at Q 1s collector feeds back
to base of Q2 tending to turn it ON more. The process is said to be regenerative or cumulative with quit fast
switching results. The length of the time for which Q1 is held off is now decided by the R2C2 time constant.
The time of the quasi stable states are: T1 = 0.69 R1C1

THEORY:
The circuit diagram of Monostable Multivibrator is as shown in fig. It is also called as collector to base
coupled. Monostable Multivibrator as more simply the collector coupled multivibrator. It has a permanent
stable state & one quasi stable state. In this configuration a triggered signal is required to include a transition
from the stable state to quasistable. The circuit may remain in quasistable state for a time which is very long in
comparison with the time of transition between states. Eventually it will return to from the quasistable state to
its state, no external signal being required to induce this reverse transition. Since when it is triggered, the
circuit returns to its original state by itself after a time T, it is known as a one shot a single cycle a single
step circuit or aunivibrator. Since it generates rectangular waveforms & hence can be used to gate other
circuits, it is also called a gating circuit. Furthermore, the gate width T is given by:
T= Rin (2Vcc-VI (sat)-VBE (sat)) /Vcc-Vr
= {Rin2+RinVcc-[VCE (sat) +VBE (out)]/2}/ (Vcc-Vr)
At room temperature VCE (sat) +VBE (sat) =2vr for either Ce so
T=RIn2=0.69(R+R0) C= 0.69RC.
Since Ro for a transistor is saturation is small with R. The large Vcc is compared to the function voltage. The
better is the approximation. The internal T is not particularly stable against temperature variation. The base to
emitter voltage VBE (sat) decreases as temperature increases at the rate of about 2mv/c, where as VCE (sat) has
a temp coefficient which is at opposite sign and substantially smaller the gate widtht decreases as the
temperature increases. The value of VCC, smaller is this effect. We consider how the effect of the reverse
saturation current on the time T of stable state during the internal ,when Q2 is cut-off a nominal current I CBO
flows out of base of transistor of Q2.Then the voltage at the base of Q2 with C disconnected would not be VCC
but ICBO*R . The initial voltage VC in the stable state is not VCC but is VCC-I CBO*RC, where now ICBO is the
collector current of Q1 when it is off.
Consequently the drop in voltage VCC when multi trigger is obtained. It has one stable and one quasi stable
state. It is also called as one shot or delay circuit or uni vibrator. An external trigger signal is required to be
applied to an appropriate in the circuit to cause transition from stable state to quasi stable state and after a time
determine by the state circuit components. It returns to its original stable state an its called as Monostable
Multivibrator. Monostable Multivibrator has the application in pulse circuitry. It may be used to establish a fixed
time interval, one beginning and end of which are marked by an abrupt discontinuity in a voltage waveform.
17
The pulse width of Monostable Multivibrator is given by T = 0.693 RC. Thus by changing the values of RC the
pulse width of Monostable Multivibrator can be adjusted.

THEORY:
Schmitt trigger is generally bistable circuit. It is also called as emitter coupled binary. The circuit
diagram shows Schmitt trigger using transistor Q1 & Q2. This circuit is an amplitude comparator to
mark the movement at which an arbitrary wave form attains a particular reference level. The existence
of any two states result from the fact that the Forward Biasing is incorporated into the circuit &from
the further fact loop gain of the circuit is greater than unity.
If transistor Q2 is conducting, this will cause a volume drop across R which will elevate the
emitter at Q1 consequently. If Vin is small enough in volume, Q1 will be in cut off. As Vin rises, the
circuit will not respond until Q1 reaches its cut in point. With Q1 conducting, the circuit will
amplifying & since the gain Vo /Vin is +ve the output will rise in response to the rise of Vin. As
Vin continues to rise RB drop also increases. Therefore voltage of Vin will be achieved at which Q2 is
turned OFF .At this point Vo = Vrms & output again is no longer responds to the input . A plot of Vo
against V is drawn from readings. The voltage at which Q1 reaches cut in marked V = V1 hysteresis.
In many instance the hysteresis of the Schmitt Trigger circuit is not a matter of concern should be the
case if we had a periodic signal of amplitude large in comparison with the hysteresis range V T and our
interest is using the circuit as one way comparing another application. Thus even when used as one
way comparator if the signal were smaller than +ve voltage then the comparator having responded by
the transition in one direction would never reset itself to hysteresis, may be eliminated by adjusting
the loop gain of the circuit to be unity.
CIRCUIT OPERATION:
To study the circuit operation of Schmitt trigger consider the following cases.
Case 1: Vs = 0
In this Q1 is OFF & Q2 is ON. This is the first stable state. As no input signal is there, because of the
voltage division across Vcc due to Rc1 and Rc2 and Rc we get Q1 in OFF state & Q2 is in ON state.
Case 2: Upper transition point (UTP)
Apply the input signal & increase the magnitude. The magnitude of input signal to make first transition
because of which Q1 will be in ON state & Q2 will be in OFF state is called as UTP.
Case 3: Lower transition point (LTP)
Let us consider applied input signal amplitude we are decreasing then after particular amplitude value,
there is again transition happens which cause Q1 to be in OFF state & Q2 to be in ON state. The magnitude of
input signal at which second transition takes is called as LTP.

THEORY:
This is most popular type of coupling as it provides excellent audio fidelity. A coupling
capacitor is used to connect output of first stage to input of second stage. Resistances R1,
R2,RE form biasing and stabilization network. Emitter bypass capacitor offers low reactance
paths to signal coupling Capacitor transmits ac signal, blocks DC. Cascade stages amplify
signal and overall gain is increased total gain is less than product of gains of individual
22
stages. Thus for more gain coupling is done and overall gain of two stages equals to
A=A1*A2 where A1=voltage gain of first stage and A2=voltage gain of second stage.
When ac signal is applied to the base of the transistor, its amplified output appears across the
collector resistor Rc. It is given to the second stage for further amplification and signal
appears with more strength. Frequency response curve is obtained by plotting a graph
between frequency and gain in db .The gain is constant in mid frequency range and gain
decreases on both sides of the mid frequency range. The gain decreases in the low frequency
range due to coupling capacitor Cc and at high frequencies due to junction capacitance Cbe.

FREQUENCY RESPONSE:
27
THEORY:
In voltage amplifier without feedback, the output voltage Vout = Av * Vin, where the amplification Av
(also known as open loop gain) may in general be a function of both frequency and voltage.
Open loop gain Av is given by: Av = Vout/Vin
.1
Suppose we have the feedback loop so that a fraction Vout of the output is added to the input. is
known as the feedback factor and is determined by the feedback network that is connected around the
amplifier. The feedback network may be modified using reactive elements like capacitors or inductors
to give frequency dependent closed loop gain as in equalization tone control circuits or construct
oscillators. The input to the amplifier is now, Vin, where
Vin = Vin + Vout
1+ Av = Av/ Avf
6 and
Avf = Av/ 1+ Av 7
If Av>>1, then Avf ~ 1/ and the effective amplification (or closed loop gain) Avf is set by the
characteristics of feedback constant , thus making linearising and stabilizing the amplification
characteristics straightforward. If there are conditions where Av = -1, the amplifier has infinite
amplification and amplifier starts oscillating. Now amplifier works as an oscillator and the system is
unstable.
Advantages of negative feedback:
1) Improves stability of gain
28
BW= (fcu-fcl)
NEED OF CASCADING:
A= [-hfe x RL1Ri]
It becomes very difficult to get very high gain using single stage amplifier. Thus it is necessary to go
for the cascading.
TYPES OF COUPLING:
While coupling the output of first stage as input to the other different types of coupling are used.
Direct coupling DC coupling tuned inductive coupling, transformer coupling and optical coupling are
few important types. The amplifier used for practical purpose is RC coupling method.
Due to cascading effective bandwidth of the amplifiers gets reduced because gain has been boosted.
To get proper boosting in gain it is necessary to match the impedance i.e. output impedance of first
stage with input impedance of the second. For practical circuit as shown in figure voltage series
feedback is used improve stability.
FREQUENCY RESPONSE:
1) (<50Hz): The reactance of coupling capacitor Cc is quite high and hence very small range of
signal will pass from one stage to next stage.
2) At high frequency(>20KHz): The reactance of Cc is very small and it behaves as a short
circuit. This increases the loading effect of next stage and causes to reduce the voltage gain.
Moreover, at high frequency capacitive reactance of base-emitter junction is low which
increases the base current. Two reason the gain drop off at high frequency.

THEORY:
When any increase in the output signal results into the input in such a way as to cause the
decrease in the output signal, the amplifier is said to have negative feedback. The advantages
of providing negative feedback are that the transfer gain of the amplifier with feedback can
be stabilized against variations in the hybrid parameters of the transistor or the parameters of
the other active devices used in the circuit. The most advantage of the negative feedback is
that by proper use of this, there is significant improvement in the frequency response and in
the linearity of the operation of the amplifier. This disadvantage of the negative feedback is
that the voltage gain is decreased. In Current-Series Feedback, the input impedance and the
output impedance are increased. Noise and distortions are reduced considerably.
PROCEDURE:
1) Connections are made as per circuit diagram.
2) Keep the input voltage constant at 30mV peak-peak and vary the frequency from
20Hz to 1MHz and note down the output voltage and calculate the gain by using the
expression Av = 20log (V0 / Vi) dB.
3) Remove the emitter bypass capacitor (CE) and repeat STEP 2.And observe the effect
of feedback on the gain of the amplifier.
4) For plotting the frequency response the input voltage is kept constant at 30mV peak to
peak and the frequency is varied from 100Hz to 1MHz.
5) Note down the value of output voltage for each frequency. All the readings are
tabulated and the voltage gain in dB is calculated by using expression Av = 20log
(V0 / Vi ) dB.
6) The Bandwidth of the amplifier is calculated from the graph using the expression
Bandwidth B.W = f2 f1. Where f1 is lower cut off frequency of CE amplifier and f2
is upper cut off frequency of CE amplifier.
7) The gain-bandwidth product of the amplifier is calculated by using the expression
Gain-Bandwidth Product = 3-dB midband gain X Bandwidth.

THEORY:
As shown in the below diagram, the direct coupled amplifier (DC) is consist of two transistors Q1 and
Q2 , a voltage divider base bias resistor network (R1, R2) which is provided on the transistor Q1 base
two collector resistors Rc1and Rc2, the transistor Q2 is self biased, we also use tow emitter by
pass resistors RE1and RE2. The direct-coupled amplifier is operated without the using of frequency
sensitive component like capacitor, inductor and Transformer etc. The direct coupled amplifier
amplifies the A.C signal with frequency as low a fraction of Hertz (Hz). First of all when we applied a
+ve half cycle at the I/P of Q1 transistor, which is already biased through the divider bias network.
The +ve half cycle forwarded bias the transistor Q1 which start the conduction and give an inverted
and amplified O/P at the collector. As we know that, VCE= Vcc IcRc. This amplified -ve signed is
provided to the base of Q2 transistor, which is self-bias (because they are connected in cascade
condition). The base of Q2 transistor is a reversed and did not conduct, the O/P of transistor Q2 is
amplified signal (inverting to I/P of Q2) when the Q2 did not conduct and the voltage drop across
collector emitter will be zero, therefore the VCC is equal to IcRc. The O/P equal to the voltage
drop across the collector resistors.
PROCEDURE:
1. Construct the circuit as shown in the diagram.
2. Set the input value in the mill volts range.
3. Vary the frequency and note the output Vo in the CRO.
4. By taking the frequency in X-axis and gain in Y-axis draw the graph.
5. Note the lower and upper cutoff frequency by drawing the 3db line.
6. From these two frequencies calculate the band width of the DC amplifier.

Positive Low voltage regulator circuit diagram and pin connection using LM723
39
THEORY:
A voltage regulator is a circuit that supplies a constant voltage regardless of changes in load
current and input voltage variations. Using IC 723, we can design both low voltage and high
voltage regulators with adjustable voltages. For a low voltage regulator, the output VO can be
varied in the range of voltages Vo < Vref, where as for high voltage regulator, it is VO > Vref.
The voltage Vref is generally about 7.5V.
Although voltage regulators can be designed using Op-amps, it is quicker and easier to use IC
voltage Regulators. IC 723 is a general purpose regulator and is a 14-pin IC with internal
short circuit current limiting, thermal shutdown, current/voltage boosting etc. Furthermore it
is an adjustable voltage regulator which can be varied over both positive and negative voltage
ranges. By simply varying the connections made externally, we can operate the IC in the
required mode of operation. Typical performance parameters are line and load regulations
which determine the precise characteristics of a regulator. The pin configuration is shown in
in the diagram.
PROCEDURE:
a) Line Regulation: For Vo = 5V and Vo = 13 V
1. Construct the circuit as shown in the diagram.
2. Obtain R1 and R2 for Vo = 5V / 13 V
3. By varying Vin from 3 to 12V, measure the output voltage Vo for LVLC regulator.
4. By varying Vin from 10 to 20V, measure the output voltage Vo for LVLC regulator.
4. Draw the graph between Vin and Vo as shown in model graph (a)
5. Calculate the line regulation.
b) Load Regulation: For Vo = 5V and Vo =13
1. Set Vi such that Vo= 5 V / 13V
2. By varying RL, measure IL and Vo.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
THEORY:
LM317 adjustable positive voltage regulator. The connection diagram is shown above. The
resistors R1 and R2 determine the output voltage Vout. The resistor R2 is adjusted to get the
output voltage range between 1.2 volts to 57 volts. The output voltage that is required can be
calculated using the equation: Vout = Vref (1+R2/R1) + Iadj R2
In this circuit, the value of Vref is the reference voltage between the adjustment terminals and
the output taken as 1.25 Volt. The value of Iadj will be very small and will also have a
constant value. Thus the above equation can be rewritten as Vout = 1.25 (1+R2/R1).
Department of Electronics & Telecommunication KITCOEK
43
In the above equation, due to the small value of Iadj, the drop due to R2 is neglected. The
load regulation is 0.1 percent while the line regulation is 0.01 percent per volt. This means
that the output voltage varies only 0.01 percent for each volt of input voltage. The ripple
rejection is 80 db, equivalent to 10,000.
The LM 337 series of adjustable voltage regulators is a complement to the LM 317 series
devices. The negative adjustable voltage regulators are available in the same voltage and
current options as the LM 317 devices.

2. Obtain R1 and R2 for Vo = 6V.

5. Calculate the line regulation.

1. Set Vi such that Vo= 6 V.
2. By varying RL, measure IL and Vo.
