 Question :

The voltages at V1 and V2 of the arrangement shown in the figure will be respectively


A. 6 V and 5.4 V

B. 5.4 V and 6 V

C. 3 V and 5.4 V

D. 6 V and 3 V


Solution :

For diode D1 it is clear that anode voltage is higher. So it is forward bias.

Voltage V2 = 6 - Vt

Vt is cut in voltage of diode.

V2 = 6 - 0.6

V2 = 5.4 V


For diode D2, cathode voltage is higher and hence it is reverse biased. 

So V1 = 6 V

So option A is correct.

  Question : When a reverse bias is applied to a germanium PN junction diode, the reverse saturation current at room temperature is 0.3m A. Determine the current flowing in the diode when 0.15v forward bias is applied at room temperature. Solution : Given Io = 0.3 * 10-6A and VF = 0.15v The current flowing through the PN diode under forward bias is I = Io (e^(40VF) -1) for germanium diode = 0.3 * 10^(-6) (e^(40*0.15) -1) = 120.73mA.

The meter's scale can be read to 1/5th of a division and has 100 divisions in all. Given that a core displacement of 0.5 mm provides an output of 2 mV from the LVDT, find,  1. The sensitivity of the LVDT  2. The sensitivity of the whole system  3. The resolution of the instrument in centimeters Explanation : (a) Sensitivity of LVDT = Output voltage /displacement  Sensitivity of LVDT = 2mV/0.5 mm = 4 mV/mm (b)Sensitivity of whole setup = amplification factor*sensitivity of LVDT  Sensitivity of whole setup = 250*(4 mV/mm) = 1000 mV/mm (c) The resolution of the instrument in centimeters = minimum voltage that can be read by instrument /sensitivity of whole setup  There are 100 divisions to measure upto 5V.  So 1 division can read 5/100 = 0.05V Scale can read 1/5 of a division.  So minimum voltage that can be read = 0.05/5 = 0.01V = 10mV So resolution = (10 mV) /
