Before we start with Electronics Let us review the Basics of Electricity Q. What are the two main quantities in electricity ? • CURRENT • VOLTAGE
What is a Voltage Source ? • A device that produces voltage output continuously. TYPES:- • DC Voltage Source and AC Voltage Source
What is a Current Source ? • A voltage source that has a very high internal impedance as compared with external load impedance is a Constant Current Source. • Example: A dc battery of 1000 V with internal resistance 950kΩ and load resistance varying from 50 KΩ to 150 KΩ.
Series and Parallel Connections • Two 12 V batteries in series • Two 12 V batteries in parallel • What will be the output voltage if a 24 V battery is connected in parallel with a 12 V battery?
Applications:- • Rectification • Amplification • Control • Generation • Conversion of Light into Current • Conversion of Current into Light The branch of engineering which deals with current conduction through a vacuum, or gas or semiconductor is known as electronics.
Classification of Solids Conductors, Insulators and Semiconductors • Insulators: (e.g. wood, glass) • Conductors: (e.g. copper, aluminum) • Semiconductors: (e.g. germanium, silcon)
Semiconductors • A semiconductor is a substance which has conductivity (2 to 2000/ ohm-meter) in between conductors and insulators e.g. germanium, silicon, carbon etc. • A semiconductor is a substance which has almost filled valence band and nearly empty conduction band with a very small forbidden energy gap i.e. 1.1eV for silicon and 0.7eV for germanium.
Intrinsic & Extrinsic semiconductors • A semiconductor in an extremely pure form is known as an intrinsic semiconductor. • The intrinsic semiconductor has little current conduction capability at room temperature. • To be used in electronic devices, the conducting properties of intrinsic semiconductor are significantly increased by adding a small amount of suitable impurity, it is then called extrinsic semiconductor. • The process of adding impurities to a pure semiconductor is known as doping.

P-N Junction • If a semiconductor is doped with p-type impurities at one end and n-type impurities at the other end, a p-n Junction is formed
Diode • It is a one way valve. • It allows current to flow in one direction only. • It is commonly used (as a switch) in making Power supply to convert ac voltage into dc voltage.
Half-wave rectifier – A diode placed in series between a transformer (or ac line input) and its load. Half-wave Rectifiers
This circuit converts an ac input to a series of positive pulses. Positive Half-wave Rectifiers
Negative Half-wave Rectifiers This circuit converts an ac input to a series of negative pulses.
The negative full-wave rectifier converts an ac input to a series of negative pulses. Negative Full-wave Rectifiers
The most commonly used because: It does not require the use of a center-tapped transformer. It can be coupled directly to the ac power line. It produces a higher dc output than a comparable full-wave center-tapped rectifier. Full-Wave Bridge Rectifiers
Digital Circuits • Digital circuits are prepared using analog components like transistor as a switch. • The binary numbers 1 and 0 are represented by +5Volts and 0Volts.
