Electronic circuit Design Student’s Name College Instructor’s Name Course Name: Abstract The aim of this report is design, implement and analyse Passive Filters, diode and diode circuits using voltage drop across, current flow, resistance and temperature. The results show that diodes have a conducting ability when voltage is around 0.7V in the forward bias while in the reverse bias it allows little current through. The graph of the voltage across and its current is unique in all resisters as it begins to raise up at 0.7V. This is remains the voltage across the diode whether there is increase in input voltage. Thus there is a need to have resistor to be in series with the diode to limit current flow. The resistance of the diode is obtained by dividing the voltage across it by the current flowing through it as opposed to the value of the gradient.

It is from this understanding that this report is based in an attempt of communicating these findings. The experiment involves investigations of several parameters that are important for any industrial processing unit. Therefore, a slight change in these parameters could bring an effect on the current. How these changes could be coordinated to give a more desired aftermath was integral in this investigation. Of these is the output originating from the controller, its ability to coordinate with the desired power supply was investigated, how the current could be made more effective from the controller point of view was important. It was therefore mandatory when investigating this to apply control measures, and such effects of introducing any step changes on parameters like connection, the effects of integral actions on the system’s response was key too. The final part of the experiment involved communicating these findings based on performance characterization where graphical representation was important to clearly illustrate these findings. From these series of experiments it is clear that whenever there is an overlap in functional mechanism meant to regulate a functional parameter then the process would function at optimum if the it is regulated within the recommended range. This would also ensure other dependable functional parameter is highly maximized. For each of these experiments, the literature review, the underlying theory, the adopted methodology, the outcomes and their discussions and finally the derived conclusions have been illustrated as per the scope of work.

Any voltage is increased beyond 0.7V then A resistor required to hold the excess voltage. The 3.3kΩ resistor in the circuit, reverse bias the diode and plot ID versus VD From the graph Forward Biased Region v > 0, Reversed Biased Region v < 0 and breakdown Region v < -VZK If the temperature at the diode increases by 10°C diagram of the change in the forward bias characteristic with the 3.3kΩ to change. At a constant current, the voltage drop decreases by approximately 20 mV for every 10°C increase in temperature. Since the reverse leakage current doubles for every 100 C increase.

It clear that the current flow in both diodes is limited to 0.7V no current flows through the diode. As the voltage increases For V1 = 7V, verify Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law for this circuit. Tabulate varying values of V1 from 0 to 10V, I and VD123 total voltage drop across all diodes). The total voltage across the diodes is zero. In this a current flows through first diode while the third and second diode there is no flow of current since the third diode is reverse biased. The voltage across the D2 is limited to the voltage across the D3 as it is reverse biased. Diode Circuits Design and implement on your breadboard a half wave rectifier with an input sinusoidal voltage of 50Hz and 4Vpp, where the output is taken across a 680Ω resistor. Input and output waveforms, assuming that rD >> R The voltage across the resistor- When the input voltage age is negative, the output voltage vR is zero, so the negative half of the “wave” has been cut off. a capacitor inserted to smooth the output voltage. the dark graph line shows the voltage across the resistor, assuming the RC time constant is much larger than the period of the sinusoidal input voltage. The light graph line shows what the output would have been without the capacitor. Normal Diodes VD= 0.7v are used for rectifier of input of much larger amplitude then VD. For smaller signals detection, demodulation or rectification Operational Amplifiersare used Conclusion The experiment successfully determined the calculated values of current that were in close proximity with the values of RC in the sample test records provided. The graph plotted comparing the experimentally determined and the sample values pursued a linear path which also confirmed the success of the experiment. The Inverse Square Law was successfully established in the experiment as the linearity of the obtained curve in Graphs was as expected due to the inverse variation of the area of the transfer intensity with the square of the distance from the centre of the source of power. This is the reason why the shape of the log curve tends to follow an inverse straight line. References Crowe, J. & Hayes-Gill, B. 1998. Introduction to Digital Electronics.
