Instruction for Candidates

1. There are six questions in all, out of which you have to attempt any four questions.
2. All questions carry equal marks.

Q.1 In a dual input balanced output differential amplifier, RC=3KΩ, RE=4.3KΩ, VCC=12V,
VEE=-12V, β=200,VBE=0.7V and VT=25mV. Determine the values of quiscent current and
voltages IBQ, ICQ,VCEQ. Also evaluate its differential mode gain, common mode gain and
CMRR. A square wave of peak to peak amplitude of 400mV has to be amplified to a peak-
to-peak amplitude of 3V, with a rise time of 4μs or less. Can a 741C opamp be used for this
pupose? Justify your answer.

Q.2 Determine the lower frequency limit of integration for an integrator circuit having
R1=20KΩ, RF=200KΩ, CF=10nF and sketch the output for a step input signal.Design a
adder circuit using non inverting configuration of opamp which gives output, V out = 2V2 +
3V1 where V2 and V1 are the inputs.

Q.3 Design a wide band reject filter having fH=300Hz, fL= 3KHz and pass band gain of 2. Plot
its frequency response.What is roll off rate of a second order low pass butterworth
filter?Design an all pass filter which can generate the phase delay of 900 at the frequency of
5KHz.

Q.4 Designa phase shift oscillator to oscillate at 200Hz. For a Voltage controlled Oscillator, if
+V=15V, VC=13V and C1=0.0068μF, determine the change in output frequency if R1 is
varied from 4KΩ to 18KΩ. Design a low voltage dc voltmeter with a full scale voltage
range of 1 to 10V.

Q.5 Design a Schmitt trigger having threshold voltages 𝑉 = 35mV and𝑉 = −35mV using
the 741 op-amp.Plot the output waveform if a 200 mV pp sine wave at 1 KHz is applied to
the inverting input terminal of a comparator configured as zero crossing detector. Calculate
theoutput frequency, lock range and capture range of a 565 PLL if R T=10 KΩ, CT=0.01 μF
and C=10 μF.

Q.6 Calculate positive pulse width, negative pulse width, free running frequency and duty cycle
for an astablemultivibrator having𝑅 = 8𝐾Ω, 𝑅 = 3 𝐾Ω and 𝐶 = 0.1𝜇𝐹. Also design a
monostable multivibrator having an output pulse width of 300ns.Why variable voltage
regulators are preferred over fixed voltage regulators?
