UNIT -I

1. What are conductors? Give examples?

Conductors are materials in which the valence and conduction band overlap each

other so there is a swift movement of electrons which leads to conduction. Ex. Copper, silver.

2. What are insulators? Give examples?

Insulators are materials in which the valence and conduction band are far away from

each other. So no movement of free electrons and thus no conduction. Ex glass, plastic.

is called dopant.

11. Define drift current.

When an electric field is applied across the semiconductor, the holes move towards

the negative terminal of the battery and electron move towards the positive terminal of the

battery. This drift movement of charge carriers will result in a current termed as drift current.

12. Give the expression for drift current density due to electron.

Jn = q n μnE

Where,

Jn - drift current density due to electron

q- Charge of electron

μn - Mobility of electron

E - applied electric field

13. Define the term diffusion current.

A concentration gradient exists, if the number of either electrons or holes is greater in

one region of a semiconductor as compared to the rest of the region. The holes and electron

tend to move from region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration. This

process in called diffusion and the current produced due this movement is diffusion current.

14. What is recovery time? Give its types.

When a diode has its state changed from one type of bias to other a transient

accompanies the diode response, i.e., the diode reaches steady state only after an interval of

time “tr” called as recovery time. The recovery time can be divided in to two types such as

(i) forward recovery time (ii) reverse recovery time

4

bonds. Now extremely large number of free charge carriers are produced which constitute the

zener current. This process is known as zener break down.

18. What is avalanche break down?

When bias is applied, thermally generated carriers which are already present in the

diode acquire sufficient energy from the applied potential to produce new carriers by

removing valence electron from their bonds. These newly generated additional carriers

acquire more energy from the potential and they strike the lattice and create more number of

free electrons and holes. This process goes on as long as bias is increased and the number of

free carriers gets multiplied. This process is termed as avalanche multiplication. Thus the

break down which occurs in the junction resulting in heavy flow of current is termed as

avalanche break down.

decreases. This variation of effective base width by collector base voltage is known as base

width modulation or early effect.

8. Explain the significance of early effect or base width modulation.

It reduces the charges recombination of electron with holes in ht base region, hence

the current gain increase with increase in collector base voltage. The charge gradient is

increased within the base; hence the current due to minority carriers across emitter junction

increases.

signal at different frequencies.

12. What is difference between voltage amplifier and power amplifier?

Small signal amplifiers are also known as “Voltage amplifiers”. This is because

these amplifiers are used primarily for voltage amplification but they are not capable of

supplying a large power to the loads such as loud speakers. The large signal amplifier (power

Page 27: V.S.B. ENGINEERING COLLEGE, KARUR DEPARTMENT OF …€¦ · 6 Cut off region: The collector and emitter junction are both reverse biased. Saturation region: The collector and emitter

27

Step-up transformers are used in generating stations. Normally the generated voltage will

be either 11kV. This voltage (11kV) is stepped up to 110kV or 220kV or 400kV and

transmitted through transmission lines (simply called as sending end voltage).

Step-down transformers are used in receiving stations. The voltage are stepped down to

11kV or 22kV are stepped down to 3phase 400V by means of a distribution transformer and

made available at consumer premises. The transformers used at generating stations are called

power transformers.

31.How does change in frequency affect the operation of a given transformer?

With a change in frequency, iron and copper loss, regulation, efficiency & heating varies so

the operation of transformer is highly affected.

32. What is the angle by which no-load current will lag the ideal applied voltage?

In an ideal transformer, there are no copper & core loss i.e. loss free core. The no load

current is only magnetizing current therefore the no load current lags behind by angle

900.However the winding possess resistance and leakage reactance and therefore the no load

current lags the applied voltage slightly less than 900

33. List the arrangement of stepped core arrangement in a transformer?

iii) To do useful work in the external circuit.

11. Write the functions of Commutator? (Nov 2010)

Various functions arte

i) To facilitate the collection of current from the armature conductors.

ii) To convert internally developed alternating e.m.f. to unidirectional e.m.f.

iii) To produce unidirectional torque in case of motors.

12. Mention the types of armature winding. (Dec 2011)

Armature winding has basically two types namely,

i) Lap winding

ii) Wave winding

1. Number of parallel paths(A) =

Poles (P)

Number of parallel paths (A) = 2

2. Number of brush sets required is

equal to number of poles

always equal to 2

3. Preferable for high current, low

voltage capacity generators

Preferable for high voltage, low current

capacity generators

4. Normally used for generators of

capacity more than 500A

Preferred for generators of capacity less

than 500A

14. Define commutation. (May 2007)

The reversal of current is likely to take place in short interval when a coil is short

circuited by a brush so that transfer of current from one direction to other is carried out

without any sparking. This process is called commutation.

15. Mention the methods of improving commutation. (Nov 2009)

There are two practical ways by which commutation may be improved. These

methods are

I. Resistance commutation

II. E.M.F commutation

16. Draw the symbolic representation of dc generator. (Nov 2010)

35

17. Underwhat circumstances does a dc shunt generator fail to build up? (Dec 2011)

1. Absence of residual flux.

2. Initial flux set up by the field winding may be in opposite direction to residual flux

3. Shunt filed circuit resistance may be higher than its critical field resistance

4. Load circuit resistance may be less than its critical load resistance

18. Define critical field resistance in dc shunt generator(Nov 2009)

Critical field resistance is defined as the resistance of the field circuit which

will cause the shunt generator just to build up its e.m.f at a specified field.

19. Why is the e.m.f not zero when the field current is reduced to zero in a dc

generator?

Even after the field current/magnetizing force is reduced to zero the machine

is left out with some flux as residue. E.m.f due to this residual flux is available when

field current is zero.

20. Define the term ‘critical speed’ in dc shunt generator. (Nov 2010)

Critical speed is defined as the speed at which the generator is to be driven to

cause self-excited generator to Build up its e.m.f for the given field circuit resistance.

21. Define the term armature reaction in dc machines. (Dec 2011)

The interaction between the fluxes set up by the current carrying armature

conductors with the main field flux is defined as armature reaction.

22. What are the two unwanted effects of armature reaction? (Nov 2009)

Cross magnetizing effect / Distorting effect

Demagnetizing effect

1. Differentiate between geometric neutral axis (GNA) and magnetic neutral axis

(MNA). (Nov 2010) GNA is the axis, which is situated geometrically or physically in the mid way

between adjacent main poles. MNA is the axis, which passes through the zero crossing

of the resultant magnetic field waveform in the air gap.

24.Does a d.c motor differ from d.c generator in construction? (Nov 2009)

Generators are normally placed in closed room, accessible only to skilled

operators. Therefore on ventilation point of view they may be constructed with large

opening in the frame. Motors on the other hand, have to be installed right in the place of

use which may have dust, dampness, inflammable gases, chemical fumes etc . To

protect the motors against these elements, the motor frames are made either partly

closed or totally closed or flame proof etc.

25.Does a d.c motor differ from d.c generator in construction? (Dec 2011)

Generators are normally placed in closed room, accessible only to skilled

operators. Therefore on ventilation point of view they may be constructed with large

opening in the frame. Motors on the other hand, have to be installed right in the place of

use which may have dust, dampness, inflammable gases, chemical fumes etc . To

protect the motors against these elements, the motor frames are made either partly

closed or totally closed or flame proof etc.

26. To what polarity are the interpoles excited in dc generators? (Nov 2010)

The polarity of the interpoles must be that of the next main pole along the

direction of rotation in the case of generator.

27.Why are carbon brushes preferred for dc machines? (May 2012)

The high contact resistance carbon brushes help the current in the coil undergoing

commutation to attain its full value in the reverse direction at the end of commutation.

The carbon brushes also lubricate and give less wear and tear on Commutator surface.

28. Draw the diagram of separately excited DC generator.

e.m.f?

1. The generator should have residual flux

2. The field winding should be connected in such a manner that the flux set up by the

3.field winding should be in the same direction as that of residual flux

INTRODUCTION

1. Define scalar field?

Page 46: V.S.B. ENGINEERING COLLEGE, KARUR DEPARTMENT OF …€¦ · 6 Cut off region: The collector and emitter junction are both reverse biased. Saturation region: The collector and emitter

46

A field is a system in which a particular physical function has a value at

each and every point in that region. The distribution of a scalar quantity with a

defined position in a space is called scalar field.

Ex: Temperature of atmosphere.

2. Define Vector field?

If a quantity which is specified in a region to defined a field is a vector

then the corresponding field is called vector field.

3. Define scaling of a vector?

This is nothing but, multiplication of a scalar with a vector. Such a multiplication

changes the magnitude of a vector but not the direction.

4. What are co-planar vector?

The vectors which lie in the same plane are called co-planar

vectors.

5. What is an identical vector?

Two vectors are said to be identical if there difference is zero.

Thus A and B are

identical if A B 0, i.e, A B . Such two vectors are also called as equal

vectors.

6. Define base vectors?

The base vectors are the unit vectors which are strictly oriented along the directions

of the coordinate axes of the given coordinate system.

7. What is a position vector?

Consider a point p(x, y, z) are Cartesian coordinate system. Then the position

vector of point p is represented by the distance of point p from the origin directed from

origin to point. This is also called as radius vector.

8. Define scalar product of vectors?

The scalar of the two vectors Aand B is denoted as A.B and defined as the

product of the magnitude of A and magnitude of B and the cosine of angle between

them.

9. Define Divergence.

Divergence is defined as the net outward flow of the flux per unit volume

over a closed incremental surface.

10. State Divergence Theorem.

The integral of the normal component of any vector field over a closed surface is

equal to the integral of the divergence of this vector field throughout the volume enclosed

that closed surface.

13. What is physical significance of curl of a vector field?

Curl gives rate of rotation. Curl F gives work done per unit area.

14. What is physical significance of divergence?

Divergence of current density gives net outflow of current per unit volume

.Divergence of flux density gives net outflow per unit volume. In general, divergence

of any field density gives net outflow of that field per unit volume.

15. State the conditions for a field to be a) solenoidal b) irrotational.

a) Divergence of the field has to be zero.

b) Curl of the field has to be zero.

16. Define scalar and vector quantity?

The scalar is a quantity whose value may be represented by a single real

number which may be positive or negative.e.g, temperature, mass, volume,

density

A quantity which has both a magnitude and a specified direction in space is

called a vector.e.g.force, velocity, displacement, acceleration.

17. How to represent a vector.

A vector can be represented by a straight line with an arrow in a plane. The length

of the segment is the magnitude of a vector while the arrow indicates the direction of a

vector. OA

18. What is a unit vector? What is its function while representing a vector?

Page 48: V.S.B. ENGINEERING COLLEGE, KARUR DEPARTMENT OF …€¦ · 6 Cut off region: The collector and emitter junction are both reverse biased. Saturation region: The collector and emitter

48

A unit vector has a function to indicate the direction. Its magnitude is always

unity, irrespective of the direction which it indicates and the coordinate system under

consideration.

19. Name 3 coordinate systems used in electromagnetic engineering?

1) Cartesian or rectangular coordinate system.

2) Cylindrical coordinate system.

3) Spherical coordinate system.

20. How to represent a point in a Cartesian system?

A point in rectangular coordinate system is located by three coordinates namely x,

y and z coordinates. The point can be reached by moving from origin, the distance x in x

direction then the distance y in y direction and finally z in z direction.

21. What is separation of vector?

The distance vector is also called as separation vector. Distance vector is nothing

but the length of the vector.

22. State the relation between Cartesian and cylindrical coordinate system?

The point p can be defined as the intersection of three surfaces in

spherical coordinate system.

r - Constant which is a sphere with centre as origin

θ – Constant which is a right circular cone with apex as origin and axis as

z axis. Φ – Constant is a plane perpendicular to xy plane.

24. State the relationship between Cartesian and spherical system?

DIGITAL LOGICCIRCUITS TWO MARK QUESTION AND ANSWER

UNIT I

NUMBER SYSTEMS AND DIGITAL LOGIC FAMILIES

1. What is meant by parity bit?

A parity bit is an extra bit included with a message to make the total number of 1’s

either even or odd. Consider the following two characters and their even and odd parity:

with even parity with odd parity.

ASCII A = 1000001 01000001 11000001

ASCII T = 1010100 11010100 01010100

In each case we add an extra bit in the left most position of the code to produce an

even number of 1’s in the character for even parity or an odd number of 1’s in the character

for odd parity. The parity bit is helpful in detecting errors during the transmission of

information from one location to another.

2. What are registers?

Register is a group of binary cells. A register with n cells can store any discrete

quantity of information that contains n bits. The state of a register is an n-tuple number of

1’s and 0’s, with each bit designating the state of one cell in the register.

3. Define binary logic?

Binary logic consists of binary variables and logical operations. The variables are

designated by the alphabets such as A, B, C, x, y, z, etc., with each variable having only

two distinct values: 1 and 0. There are three basic logic operations: AND, OR, and NOT.

4. Convert (4021.2)5 to its equivalent decimal.
