How to measure

voltage?

How to measure

short time

intervals?

To measure a D.C voltage:

The unknown voltage, V= (Y-gain) h

To measure a A.C voltage:

Peak-to-peak voltage, Vpp = (Y-gains) h

Peak voltage, Vp= (Y-gains)2

Short time intervals, t= no. of divisions between two pulses time-base value.

Examples

1. The diagram shows the trace on the screen of a CRO when an a.c voltage is connected to the

Y-input. The Y-gain control is set at 2 V/div and the time base is off.

Calculate the value of :

(a) Peak-to-peak voltage, Vpp

(b)Peak voltage, Vp.

Solution:

2. An ultrasound signal is transmitted vertically down to the sea bed. Transmitted and reflected

signals are input into an oscilloscope with a time base setting of 150 ms cm-1. The diagram

shows the trace of the two signals on the screen of the oscilloscope. The speed of sound in

water is 1200 ms-1. What is the depth of the sea?

process?

What is

semiconductors

diodes?

1. Fill in the blank for the statement below.

(a) n-type semiconductor

Silicon like Silicon doped with atoms such as or phosphorus. The

phosphorus atoms have .. valence electrons. The fifth electron is free to move through

the silicon. The silicon has ... as majority charge-carriers and it thus

known as an n-type semiconductor.

(b)p-type semiconductors

Semiconductor like Silicon doped with .. atomssuch as or indium

has more positive holes. The Boron atoms have only . valence electrons with

missing an electron. The majority charge-carriers in this semiconductor are the

..................... and this semiconductor known as a p-type semiconductor.

What is the

function of

diodes?

Semiconductor Diode

A diode is a component (device) that allows _______________to flow in________direction only.

A diode acts like a one-way valve to electric current.

The following figure shows structure and the symbol of a semiconductor diode :

Draw the symbol for a semiconductor diode.

How does the p-n junction diode work?

Any further movement of_____________across the boundary in the depletion layer will be repelled

by the charges in the layer.

The layer of the negative charge in the p-type region will prevent the majority charge carriers from the

__________region(the electrons) from crossing the boundary. Similarly , the positive charge layer inthe n-type region will prevent the majority charge carriers from the__________region(the holes) from

crossing the boundary in the opposite direction.
