EXPERIMENT.NO. 1

AIM: - To verify Superposition theorem.

APPARATUS: - Breadboard, Resistors, Milliammeter, connecting wires, etc.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:-

THEORY: - If network contains two or more than two sources, then principle of superposition theorem is used to simplify network calculations. It may be stated as follows. In a bilateral network if two or more than two energy sources are present, then the current which flows at any point is the vector sum of all currents which would flow at that point if each source was considered separately and all other sources replaced at the time by impedance equal to their internal impedances.

PROCEDURE:-

1. Connect D. C. power supply across terminals 1-1 l and apply voltage of say V1=10 volts and similarly across terminals 2-2 l apply voltage of say V2=15 volts

2. Measure current flowing through all branches, say these currents are I1, I2, and I3.

3. Now connect only V1=10 volts across terminals1-1 l and short circuit terminals 2-2 l that is V2=0 volts.

4. Measure currents flowing through all branches for V1=10 volts V2=0 volts using a milliameter, say these currents are I1‛, I2‛, I3‛.

5. Similarly connect only V2 =15 volts across terminals 2-2 l and short circuit terminals 1-1 l that is V1=0 volts.

6. Measure current flowing through all branches for V1=0 volts and V2=15 volts using a milliameter, say these currents are I1”, I2”, I3”.

7. For verifying superposition theorem I1= I1‛+ I1”, I2= I2‛+ I2‛, I3=I3‛+I3”. 8. Calculate theoretical values of currents, these values should be

approximately equal to measured values of currents.

EXPERIMENT NO 5.

AIM: To plot frequency response of series resonance circuit.

APPARATUS: Breadboard, Resistance, Inductance, capacitor, function generator, millimeter (A.C), connecting wires etc.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

THEORY:-

In series RLC circuit

Impedance Z = R 2 + (XL –Xc) 2

Current I = V/Z And, Phase angle θ = tan -1 (XL-Xc)/R

If the frequency of the signal fed to such a series circuit is increased from minimum , the inductive reactance (XL= 2πfl) increases linearly and the capacitive reactance (Xc= 1/2πfc) decreases exponentially.

At resonant frequency fr , - Net reactance , X=0 (i.e., XL=Xc) - Impedance of the circuit is minimum , purely resistive and is equal to R - Current I through the circuit is maximum and equal to V/R - Circuit current , I is in phase with the applied voltage V (i.e. phase angle θ = 0). At this particular resonant frequency a circuit is in series resonance. Resonance occurs at that frequency when, XL=Xc or 2πfL = 1/2πfc Therefore fr = 1/2πΓLC

BW of series RLC circuit : For frequency above and below resonant frequency fr, f1 and f2 are frequencies at which the circuit current is 0.707 times the maximum current , Imax or the 3dB points.

Therefore from above figs

Bandwidth = ∆f = f2-f1 Hz .

And quality factor Q = fr/∆f = fr/f2-f1

PROCEDURE:

1. Connect function generator and milliammeter as shown in circuit diagram. 2. Set the function generator output voltage to say Vs=10 Volts. 3. Increase the function generator output signal frequency from minimum say 10 Hz

to a maximum signal frequency of 100KHz in decade steps(10,20,30…..100,200,…..1000,2000…..10k,20k…….100kHz).

4. For applied signal frequency measure current with the help of milliammeter. 5. Calculate theoretical frequency using fr =1/2π√LC 6. Plot the graph of frequency v/s current, find the frequency on the graph at which

current is maximum, this frequency is known as Resonant frequency and this should be approximately to the theoretical frequency calculated in step 5.

EXPERIMENT NO.6

AIM:-To plot frequency response of parallel resonant circuit.

APPARATUS:-Bread board, resistor, capacitor, inductor, function generator, LED. milliammeter, connecting wires etc.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:-

THEORY:-

The circuit having an inductor & capacitor connected in parallel is called parallel resonant circuit

If Xc < XL, then Ic >IL & the circuit acts capacitively . If XL < Xc , then IL >Ic & the circuit acts inductively. If XL = Xc, then IL =Ic & hence the circuit acts as a pure resistor .

In parallel resonant circuit at resonance condition 1. Phase difference between the circuit current and the applied voltage is zero 2. Maximum impedance 3. Minimum line current .

As in series resonance , all resonance circuit have the property of discriminating between the frequency at resonance frequency (fr) and these not at resonance . this property of the resonant circuit is expressed in terms of it‛s bandwidth (BW)

the current I through the circuit 4. Increase the frequency gradually and record the resonance frequency Fr at

which the circuit current becomes minimum (that is LED does not glows or glows very dimly.) (This is the resonance frequency of the parallel resonance circuit because at

parallel resonance , current I through parallel LC circuit will be minimum)

5. Compare & record the difference in the resonance frequency calculated at step 2 & that measured in step4

7. From the recorded readings of current in step 6 plot a graph of frequency versus current & mark the resonance frequency.

8. Mark the -3 dB points on the plotted graph. Find bandwidth (B W) & quality factor Q

EXPERIMENT NO.7

AIM :- To measure input impedance and output impedance of a given two port network

APPARATUS :- Breadboard , resistance , multimeter , connecting wires, etc.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:-

THEORY:- In two port network port variables are port currents and port voltages. To describe relationship between ports voltages and currents , two linear equations are required. In the two port network , there are four variables . These are the voltages and currents at the input and output ports , namely V1 , I1 and V2 , I2. From this two are independent and two are dependent variables.

By expressing V1 and V2 in terms of I1 and I2

V1=Z11.I1+ Z22.I2 V2=Z21.I2+Z22.I2

From these equations we can find out all Z parameters.

PROCEDURE :- 1. Connect dc power supply Va =5V at port 1-1‛ and keep output port open

circuited i.e. I2=0. 2. Measure the current I1 by connecting milliammeter in series with R1. 3. Measure voltage V2 across R4 by Multimeter. 4. From these values of V1, V2, I1 and I2 (I2=0) find input driving point

impedance where V1=Va.

i.e. Z11 = V1/I1 I2=0

& Find forward transfer impedance i.e. Z21 = V2/I1

5. Connect dc power supply Vb= 5v at port 2-2‛ and keep input port open circuited i.e. I1=0.

6. Measure the current I2 by connecting milliammeter in series with supply . 7. Measure the voltage V1 across R3 by multimeter . 8. From this value of V2 , V1 , I2 and I1( I1=0) find output driving point impedance

that is

Z22 = V2/I2 I1=0

& Z12 = V1/I2 I1=0

9. Calculate z-parameters theoretically. These values should be approximately equal to the practical values of z-parameters.

CONCLUSION:-Since Z12=Z21 the circuit is reciprocal and since Z11 = Z22 the circuit is not symmetrical.

4. Conduction of Viva­Voce Examinations:

Teacher should conduct oral exams of the students with full preparation. Normally, the objective questions with guess are to be avoided. To make it meaningful, the questions should be such that depth of the students in the subject is tested. Oral examinations are to be conducted in cordial environment amongst the teachers taking the examination. Teachers taking such examinations should not have ill thoughts about each other and courtesies should be offered to each other in case of difference of opinion, which should be critically suppressed in front of the students.

5. Evaluation and marking system:

Basic honesty in the evaluation and marking system is absolutely essential and in the process impartial nature of the evaluator is required in the examination system to become. It is a wrong approach or concept to award the students by way of easy marking to get cheap popularity among the students, which they do not deserve. It is a primary responsibility of the teacher to see that right students who are really putting up lot of hard work with right kind of intelligence are correctly awarded.

The marking patterns should be justifiable to the students without any ambiguity and teacher should see that students are faced with just circumstances.
