Explain, how a CE transistor acts as a switch. |
|
Answer» Solution :Transistor as a switch Circuit DIAGRAM. The circuit daigram of an n-p-n transistor in CE mode is as shown in the figure. In this circuit, the emitter is forward biased by emitter base battery `V_("bb")` and the collector is reversed biased by emitter collector battery `V_("CC").R_(B)` and `R_(c)` are input and output resistance connected between emitter-base and collector-base respectively . Using Kirchhoff.s LAW, In emitter base circuit `V_("bb")=V_(be)+I_(b)R_(B)`.........`(i)` In collector-base circuit, `V_(ec)=V_("cc")-I_(c)R_(c)`.......`(ii)` Here `V_("bb")=V_(i)` (input voltage and `V_("cc")=V_(0)` output voltage ) `:.V_(i)=V_(be)+I_(b)R_(B)` .................`(iii)` `V_(0)=V_("cc")-I_(c)R_(c)`............`(iv)` Equations `(iii)` and `(iv)` indicate how `V_(0)` changes, when `V_(i)` is increased slowly. (for Si n-p-n transistor) `(i)` If `V_(i) lt 0.6V`, the transistor is in cut off state and `I_(c)=0` and `V_(0)=V_("cc")`. `(ii)` If `0.6V ltV_(i) lt 1V` the transistor is in active state and `I_(c)` INCREASE linearly and `V_(0)` is less than the earlier value of `V_("cc")`. `(iii)` If `V_(i) gt 1V`, `I_(c)` increases non-linearly and hence `V_(0)` decreases non-linearly and when `I_(c)R_(c)` becomes maximum and transistor is said to be in saturation state tending to zero as shown in the figure. Switching action. `(i)` When input voltage is very small, the transistor is in cut off region i.e., the transistor is not conducting and acts as if in open condition i.e. OFF state. `(ii)` When input voltage is large and the transistor is in saturation state, `V_(0)` is very small `(V_(0)-0)` , the transistor acts as a closed switch i.e. ON state. |

A choke coil in series with a lamp is connected to a dc line. The lamp is seen to shine brightly. Insertion of an Iron core in the choke causes no change in the lamp's brightness. Predict the corresponding observations if the connection is to an ac line. |
|
Answer» Solution :When the choke coil is connected to dc, there is no change in the brightness. Because `f=0, X_(L)=0`. So, no change in the brightness. In Ac, the choke offers impedance, so, it glows DIM. As we insert an iron core the magnetic FIELD increases and hence inductance increases. `BA=LI = phi` `L PROP B` So, `X_(L)` also increases and the brightness of bulb decreases. |
