EE 462G Laboratory # 2 Non-Linear Element Characterization by Drs. A.V. Radun and K.D. Donohue (9/12/04) Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Kentucky Lexington, KY 40506 (Lab 1 – Report and Lab Effort Plan due at beginning of lab period) (Pre-lab 2 and Lab-2 Datasheet due at the end of the lab period). I. Instructional Objectives Measure input-output transfer characteristic curves of instantaneous (non-dynamic) semiconductor elements (Diodes and FETs). Estimate characterization parameters from transfer characteristics II. Transfer Characteristics Dynamic circuit responses result from energy storage elements. Dynamic systems are characterized by transfer functions, differential equations, and/or impulse responses. For linear circuits these characterizations, along with the initial conditions, completely describe the inputoutput relationship. Circuits containing no energy storage elements are referred to as instantaneous or memoryless systems. Nonlinear instantaneous systems are completely characterized by their transfer characteristic (TC), which describes the amplitude input-output relationship over a range of input amplitudes. Transfer characteristics for linear circuits can be expressed as an explicit mathematical function, while for most nonlinear circuits this is not possible. Thus, graphical and numerical methods are employed for analysis and design. III. Pre-Laboratory Exercises Transfer Characteristic of Diode 1) Create a SPICE simulation that results in a TC of the diode used in this experiment (use the “browse for parts” option to find the particular diode you will be using). Include the plot from the simulation and discuss the validity of modeling this part as an ideal diode with a 0.7 volt forward bias. 2) Write a Matlab function to plot diode characteristics from the Shockley equation below: vD i D I s exp nVT 1 (1) where vD and iD is the voltage drop over and current through the diode, respectively, Is is the saturation current (on the order of 10-14), n is the emission coefficient taking on values between 1 and 2, and VT is the thermal voltage (about equal to 0.026 at 300K). The function input should be a vector of points representing vD and constants Is, n, and VT. The output will be a vector of the same size as vD representing the corresponding points of iD. (note that a negative vD represents the reverse bias condition). Call your function “diodetc” and use it with the following command lines to plot an example curve: >> vd = [-3:.01:2]; >> is = 1e-14 >>n=1.5; >vt = 0.026; >> id = diodetc(vd,is,n,vt); >> plot(vd,id) >>xlabel(‘Volts’) >>ylabel(‘Amps’) 3. Use the “nmos” Matlab function from the course website to plot TC curves for the an nmos FET with the following parameters: Kp specified at 0.1233 A/ V2 , W=L=1, and Vtr = 1.8. Plot them on the same graph and label for VGS = [.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5] and a drain source voltage up to 4 volts. IV. Laboratory Procedure 1. Measure Transfer Characteristic of Diode Using Curve Tracer: Use the curve tracer in the laboratory to measure the diode characteristic for forward bias. Set I-V range limits to about either 2V and/or current of 2mA. Record the trace and estimate the diode's forward offset voltage. Save the screen image for the trace from which you estimated the forward offset voltage. Also save it as a CSV file. In the procedure section clearly described the settings used in the curve tracer and how the forward offset voltage was estimated from the transfer characteristic on the curve tracer. Use the diode function you developed in the prelab to fit the measured diode curve to the parametric on that Matlab produced. Treat the exponent factor as one value (i.e. fix one and let the other vary and report the product of the 2 that results in the best fit), and the Saturation current as another (I recommend just try about 10 values for the saturation current). (Discussion: Compare this result to the SPICE simulation and Matlab plot. How realistic were the parameters estimated in the model fit). 2. Obtain MOSFET family of transfer characteristics curves with curve tracer: Use the curve tracer to measure the ZVN3306A /2N7000 MOSFET’s drain characteristic curves. Save the screen image for the curves used to determine the MOSFET’s Kp and Vtr. Also save the trace as a CSV file. Use the programs developed in class to extract one curve from the family of traces and find the Kp and Vtr values that result in a best-fit to the data. (Discussion: Compare theses estimate to what you measured off the screen, which do you think is more accurate.)
