Objectives :
Provide an introduction to the basics of using the PSpice circuit analysis
software package.
Get a review about installing of OrCAD software program.
Be familiar with different types of analyses and simulation.
Introduction:
PSpice is a powerful general purpose analog and mixed-mode circuit simulator that
is used to verify circuit designs and to predict the circuit behavior. Its name implies '
Simulation Program for Integrated Circuits Emphasis ' .
It is recommended to simulate all circuits you will connect in the lab to get the ability
of predicting the practical results thus the intended ideas become more obvious.
PSpice allows you to do different types of analysis according to the purpose of each
circuit. These types are DC bias, DC Sweep, Transient with Fourier analysis, AC
analysis, Parameter sweep and Temperature sweep.
In this lab, we will use three basic types of circuit analysis; transient analysis, AC
frequency sweep and DC sweep. Briefly, these may be described as follows:
The DC sweep analysis produces a graph of the voltage (or current) at a
selected point in the circuit as the value of one of the DC sources in the circuit
is swept over some range.
The AC Sweep analysis produces a graph of the magnitude of the
sinusoidal voltage versus frequency at a selected point in the circuit.
The Time Transient analysis produces a graph of the output voltage (or
current) versus time at a selected point in the circuit. Applied sources are
characterized by a time sequence of samples of a voltage or current
waveform.

Theoretical Background:
Definitions:
a- Electric current (i or I) is the flow of electric charge from one point to another,
and it is defined as the rate of movement of charge past a point along a
conduction path through a circuit, or i = dq/dt. The unit for current is the
ampere (A). One ampere = one coulomb per second .
b. Electric voltage (v or V) is the "potential difference" between two points, and
it is defined as the work, or energy required, to move a charge of one
coulomb from one point to another. The unit for voltage is the volt (V). One
volt = one joule per coulomb.

It consists of :
-
Voltmeter for measuring the A.C or D.C voltage drop a cross any two point
in the circuit, and is connected in parallel.
Ohmmeter for measuring the resistance, and is connected across the resistant.
2- Oscilloscope:
An oscilloscope (abbreviated sometimes as 'scope or O-scope) is a type of
electronic test instrument that allows signal voltages to be viewed, usually as
a two-dimensional graph which a potential differences plotted as a function
of time. Although an oscilloscope displays voltage on its vertical axis, any
other quantity that can be converted to a voltage can be displayed as well.
Oscilloscopes are commonly used when it is desired to observe the exact
wave shape of an electrical signal. In addition to the amplitude of the signal,
an oscilloscope can show distortion and measure frequency, time between

two events (such as pulse width or pulse rise time), and relative timing of two
related signals. (gure2.2)
3- Wattmeter
The wattmeter is an instrument for measuring the electric power in watts of
any given circuit. The traditional analog wattmeter is an electrodynamics
instrument. The device consists of a pair of fixed coils, known as current coils,
and a movable coil known as the potential coil.
The current coils connected in series with the circuit, while the potential coil
is connected in parallel.
A current flowing through the current coil generates an electromagnetic field
around the coil. The strength of this field is proportional to the line current
and in phase with it. The potential coil has, as a general rule, a high-value
resistor connected in series with it to reduce the current that flows through it.
The result of this arrangement is that on a dc circuit, thus conforming to the
equation W=VA or P=VI. (gure 3)

4- Bread Board:
A breadboard is used to make up temporary circuits for testing or to try out
an idea. No soldering is required so it is easy to change connections and
replace components. Parts will not be damaged so they will be available to reuse afterwards.
This is in contrast to strip board and similar prototyping printed circuit
boards, which are used to build more permanent soldered prototypes, and
cannot easily be reused.
A typical small bread board is shown in gure below(gure 4), which is
suitable for testing a small circuit.
Connections on Breadboard
Breadboards have many tiny sockets (called holes) arranged on a 0.1 grid. The
leads of most components can be pushed straight into the holes. ICs are inserted
across the central gap with their notch or dot to the left.
Wire links can be made with single-core plastic-coated wire of 0.6mm diameter (the
standard size). Stranded wire is not suitable because it will crumple when pushed
into a hole and it may damage the board if strands break off.
The diagram shows how the breadboard holes are connected:
The top and bottom rows are linked horizontally all the way across as shown in
gure (5), it is suggested to use the horizontal holes ; one for the positive power
supply and the other for ground also the lower horizontal holes may be used for a
negative power supply.
The other holes are linked vertically in blocks of 5 with no link across the centre.
Notice how there are separate blocks of connections to each pin of ICs.
Electronics II
Lab Manual
On larger breadboards there may be a break halfway along the top and bottom
power supply rows. It is a good idea to link across the gap before you start to build a
circuit, otherwise you may forget and part of your circuit will have no power!
Lab Work:

Theoretical Background:
The properties of BJT ampliers can be summarized in table(1).
These basic amplifier stages can be combined by cascade connection or cascode
connection to create multistage amplifiers with better overall characteristics.

amplifier circuit, which are current mirror connection and Darlington connection
practically and by simulation.
Theoretical Background:
1. Current mirror connection:
A current mirror may be through of as an adjustable
current regulator. The current limit being easily set by
a single resistance. In this lab one of these circuits will
be built. Also exploring regulating properties and
experience some of its practical limitations. Current
mirror circuit is shown in gure (1).
2. Darlington connection:
A very popular connection of two bipolar junction transistors for operation as one
transistor. The main feature of it is that the composite transistor acts as a single unit
with a current gain that is the product of the current gains of the individual
transistors, that:
D = 1 * 2
where D is the current gain of the Darlington circuit, 1 is the current gain of the
first transistor and 2 is the current gain of the second transistor. Basic circuit of th
Darlington transistor is shown in gure (2).

AC analysis of JFET
Objectives:
Pre-lab:
Referring to gure (1), design a common source conguration that has an operating
point ( IDQ = 4mA, and Vout = 10V).
Theoretical background :
Bipolar junction transistors have low input impedance, small high frequency gain
and are non linear when |VCE| < 0.2 V. The input impedance is naturally restricted
by the forward-biased base-emitter junction. There are always problems due to the
main charge carriers passing through the region where the majority carriers are of
opposite polarity.
The field effect transistor (JFET) overcomes some of the problems of the bipolar
junction transistor. JFETs come in two types : N- channel and P- channel.
The designation refers to the polarity of the majority charge carriers in the bar of
semiconductor that connects the drain terminal D to the source terminal S. Since the
channel is formed from a single polarity (unipolar) material, its resistance is a
function only of the geometry of the conducting volume and the conductivity of the
material. The JFET operates with all PN junctions reverse-biased so as to obtain a
high input impedance into the gate.
Common Source Configuration :
The common source configuration for a FET is similar to the common emitter bipolar
transistor conguration and is shown in gure(1). The common source amplier can
provide both a voltage and current gain. Since the input resistance looking into the
gate is extremely large the current gain available from the FET amplifier can be large
Electronics II
Lab Manual
but the voltage gain is generally inferior to that available from a bipolar device. The
source by-pass capacitor is connected to provide a low impedance path to ground for
high frequency components. As a result of presence of by-pass capacitor, AC signals
wi11 not cause a swing in the bias voltage.
Since the FET gate current is small we can make the approximations iD=is and
Vg=Vgs: the source is positive with respect to the gate for reverse bias.
Note: Dont forward bias JFET gate, forward gate current larger than 50 mA will
burn out the JFET.

Frequency Response of BJT
Objectives:
To study the frequency response and bandwidth of the common emitter CE-BJT, the
common collector CC-BJT, and the common base CB-BJT amplifiers.
Theoretical Background:
The frequency response is a representation of the system's response to sinusoidal
inputs at varying frequencies. The output of a linear system to a sinusoidal input is a
sinusoid of the same frequency but with a different magnitude and phase. It is
defined as the magnitude and phase differences between the input and output
sinusoids. It is the measure of any system's output spectrum in response to an input
signal.
The frequency response allows you to determine how the system responds at
different frequencies, finds the stability properties of the system and designs the
appropriate controllers for the system according to required specifications.
Bandwidth is typically measured in hertz, It is the difference between the upper and
lower cutoff frequencies of a filter, a communication channel, or a signal spectrum. In
case of a low-pass filter or baseband signal, the bandwidth is equal to its upper cutoff
frequency. The term baseband bandwidth refers to the upper cutoff frequency.

Operational Amplifier
Objective :
To study how to design and build a basic the Op-Amp used in inverting and noninverting amplifiers, inverting summing amplifier, integrator and differentiator.
Pre-lab :
1. Design an inverting amplifiers with gain -1 and -10 and input impedance of
least 1K. Use available resistor values.
2. Design non-inverting amplifiers with gain 1 and 10. Use available resistor
values.
-
For part 1 and 2 , plot the voltage gain as a function of the frequency in
the range 0 to 50 kHz ( simulation).
For part 4 and 5, generate the output voltage waveform if the input is a
sine wave or a square wave of 2 volt peak and of frequency 500 Hz, 1kHz,
and 2 kHz.
Theoretical Background:
A basic model of an ideal operational amplier is shown in gure (1). An op-amp is a
direct coupled device with differential inputs and a single ended output. The op-amp
responds only to the difference voltage between the two input terminals, not to their
common potential. A positive going signal at the inverting (-) input produces a

Lab Manual
negative going signal at the output, whereas the same signal at the non-inverting (+)
input produces a positive going output. With a differential input voltage, Vin, the
output voltage , Vo will be Avo Vin, where Avo is the open loop gain of the op-amp.
Both input terminals of the op-amp will always be used, regardless of the
application. The output is single ended and is referred to ground. Bipolar () power
supplies are most commonly used, which allows both positive and negative output
voltages.
Properties that are useful in describing the operation of operational amplifiers are
listed below and the ideal values given. Figure (1) illustrates the relationships
between the op-amp and these properties.
1. The voltage gain is high Ideal value Avo is = .
2. The input resistance is high Ideal value Rin = .
3. The output resistance is low ideal value Ro = 0 .
4. The bandwidth is high ideal value BW = .
5. The CMRR ideal value = .
From these ideal characteristics, we can deduce two very important additional
properties of the operational amplifier. Since the voltage gain approaches infinite,
any output signal developed will be the result of an infinitely small input signal.
Thus, in essence:
1. The differential input voltage is zero.
2. There is no current flow into either the inverting or the non-inverting signal
input terminal because of the infinite input resistance.
These two axioms will be used repeatedly in the analysis and design of circuits using
op-amps. Once these properties are understood, the operation of virtually any circuit
Electronics II
Lab Manual
using an op-amp can be logically deduced. For the most real op-amps, these ideal
calculations are very close to the actual conditions.
Most linear op-amp circuits can be divided into two general classes; inverting and
non-inverting. Other circuits can be a combination of both. In the next two sections
we briefly review these two basic configurations.
1. Inverting configuration :
The basic inverting configuration is shown in figure (2). Because of the virtual
short and because the non-inverting terminal is grounded, we say that there is a
virtual ground at the inverting terminal. The final closed loop gain expression is :
The negative sign justifies the term " inverting" . In the more general case that
resistors are replaced by impedances.
2. Non-inverting configuration :
The basic non-inverting configuration is shown in figure (3). The final closed loop
gain expression is :
Since the closed loop gain is positive, the term " non-inverting" is justified.

4. Inverting integrator :
Referring to the general inverting circuit of figure (2), if Zf is a capacitor and Z1 is
a resistor, then we have the inverting integrator of gure (6). Assuming that the
capacitor has zero voltage at t = 0, the output voltage is given by :

Integrators suffer from DC components in the input voltage. If the input voltage
has a non-zero average value "DC term", then when this term is integrated it
becomes a linear ramp which over time will saturate the op-amp. Furthermore,
small DC voltages and currents present at and between the inputs of the op-amps
(known as input offset voltages and currents) also get integrated and they could
over time saturate the op-amp.
Integrators are widely used in practice because their frequency response has low
pass characteristics, which tends to attenuate noise that may be present in the
input voltage that noise has predominantly high frequency content.
5. Inverting differentiator :
By reversing the resistor and the capacitor in the integrator, we get the inverting
differentiator shown in figure (7). The output voltage is given by :

To learn about power amplifiers types and know the characteristics of each type.
Theoretical Background:
Amplifier classes represents the amount the output various over one cycle of
operation for a full cycle of input signal (return to section 12.1 in your book).

The power into amplifier is provided by supply. Without input signal the dc current
drawn is the collector bias ICQ . Then the input power drawn from supply is:

SCR&TRIAC
Objectives:
Thyristor has two state Forward biased state if the anode voltage is larger than
cathode voltage, else Reverse biased state.
From the above curve When we apply forward bias voltage a small current flow,
this current called Forward leakage current. Until we reach Forward Breakdown
Voltage the resistance of thyristor will be small and current will flow from anode
to cathode.
Electronics II
Lab Manual
When we apply negative voltage reverse leakage current will flow. Until reverse
breakdown voltage thyristor will damage.
Methods of triggering a thyristor:
Excessive temperature.
Positive current gate pulse: This is the normal way that a thyristor is brought
into conduction. The gate pulse must be of a suitable amplitude and duration,
depending on the size of the thyristor.(We are interested in this method)
It can be turned off only by reducing the anode current below holding current
(current which thyristor turn off when reach it).
TRIAC
The Triac is a member of the thyristor family. But unlike a thyristor which conducts
only in one direction (from anode to cathode) a triac can conduct in both directions.
Thus a triac is similar to two back to back (anti parallel) connected thyristosr but
with only three terminals. As in the case of a thyristor, the conduction of a triac is
initiated by injecting a current pulse into the gate terminal. The gate looses control
over conduction once the triac is turned on. The triac turns off only when the current
through the main terminals become zero.
