Transcript
End of Semester Info • Exam questions available on class web page: 2 of the 4 questions posted at the “question bank” link will be chosen for the exam • Practice for the exam next week during class (Nov 26,27). You are not required to come, but are strongly encouraged to do so. Dan will run these classes. • The exam is Dec 3 / 4. • Make up for missed labs is also Nov 26,27. • Please check ELMS and make sure all your grades are correct. I have finished grading up through Lab 5. I have not graded the lab 1 re-submits yet. Let me know ASAP if any of the grades is wrong. Reports of incorrect grades for the items that I have graded as of today will not be accepted after Dec 4. Lab #7: Diode and Rectifier Circuits • learn what diode is • learn some simple circuits that use diodes •Energy levels of electrons in atoms are quantized (1s, 2s, 2p, etc) Diode •When these atoms are brought together in crystals, these energy levels become energy bands with gaps between them. • Because of the “fermi exclusion principal” no 2 electrons can have the same quantum numbers. • The distributions of electron energies depends on the temperature. The highest possible energy when T=0 is called the Fermi Energy (EF). • some materials can be made into semi conductors by adding small amounts of impurities. p-type (one fewer valence e than Si) and ntype (one more valence than Si). • semi conductors do not conduct at T=0. 1 eV Diode 104 – 106 V/cm, 0.3-0.6 V Electrons migrate from n to the holes in p, giving a net charge to each side (neg on p side, pos on n side) In steady state, there are conduction electrons who have enough thermal energy to go over the potential barrier and make a (positive) current from p to n. There is an equal and opposite current of electrons that get enough thermal energy to break their bonds in the p region, go up into the conduction band, and then slide down the barrier back to the n region. Diode + - Here, the external bias aids the electrons trying to go from n-p and you get a net current in the p to n direction. - + Here, the external voltage stops the electrons going from n to p. The ones going from p-n can still go and you get a (small) net current from n to p (the prob to get enough thermal energy to break the bond is unchanged) I I 0 (e qV / kT 1) Diode symbol Idealized I vs V Realistic I vs V I I 0 (e qV / kT 1) Half-wave rectifier Full wave rectifier RC differentiator See pg 36 For t>>RC. Voltage across resistor is derivative of VIN frequency to voltage converter Hints • lab begins pg 70 no error analysis this lab • IV.A. Do 10 measurements.. RMS, not peak-to-peak, Try pulling/pushing the amplitude knob on the scope. You should be able to go up to about 7.5V and down to 0.1 V. • IV.A fit the upper points (the part that looks linear)to a straight line, extrapolate the line down to the lower points. Include a graph with all the points and the line. • IV.B. Replace the last sentence with: For 3 different generator voltages, measure the peak-to-peak and RMS voltages for both the generator and load voltage. For each, make a plot of generator versus load, fit to a straight line, and comment on the slope and intercept •IV.C. Be careful! Not the normal cap • IV.C. Replace instructions with: for 8 different values of the frequency, plot the mean and peak-to-peak voltage across the cap versus frequency. Make sure at least 4 of the frequencies are between 20 and 100 Hz, and the highest is around 60 kHz. When measuring the mean, make sure the scope input is DC coupled. When measuring the peak-to-peak, make sure it is AC coupled and that the scale is set to a small enough setting that you can see structure. Use the cursors, not measure for the peak-to-peak. At very high frequencies, the structure will go away. Report 0 for the peak-to-peak. Hints • skip V-A, V-B, and V-C
