CHAPTER 1: Review of Electronics I
Definitions and Terminology
In a passive electrical device, the time average power delivered to the device over an infinite
time period is always greater than or equal to zero. Resistors, capacitors, and inductors, are
examples of passive devices.
Active devices, such as dc power supplies, batteries, and ac signal generators, are capable of
supplying particular types of power. Transistors are also considered to be active devices in that
they are capable of supplying more signal power to a load than they receive
Discrete Circuits are circuits that contain discrete components, such as resistors, capacitors,
and transistors.
Integrated Circuits are an electronic circuit formed on a small piece of semiconducting
material, which performs the same function as a larger circuit made from discrete
components.

2. Solar Cell Applications
A solar cell is a diode, and any diode can in principle generate electricity
from light. It is a pn junction device with no voltage directly applied across
the junction. The pn junction converts solar energy into electrical energy.
When light hits the space-charge region, electrons and holes are generated.

3. Photodiode Applications
Photodiodes are devices that convert optical signals into electrical signals.
It works exactly like the solar cell when it has zero biasing (photovoltaic
mode). An example is the photodiode, which is similar to a solar cell except
that the pn junction is operated with a reverse-bias voltage

3. Photodiode Applications
Photodiodes can be operated in different modes:
• Photovoltaic mode – Also known as zero bias mode
• Photoconductive mode - The diode used in this mode is more commonly
reverse biased ie the cathode becomes positive with respect to the
anode.
• Avalanche diode mode - Avalanche photodiodes are operated in a high
reverse bias condition, which allow multiplication of an avalanche
breakdown to each photo-generated electron-hole pair. This results in
internal gain within the photodiode, which gradually increases the
responsivity of the device I

DC Load Line vs. AC Load Line
The dc load line is a graph that represents all the possible combinations
of IC and VCE for a given amplifier. For every possible value of IC, and
amplifier will have a corresponding value of VCE
The ac load line is used to tell you the ac load line
maximum possible output voltage swing
for a given common-emitter amplifier. IC Q - point
In other words, the ac load line will tell
dc load line
you the maximum possible peak-to-peak
output voltage (Vpp ) from a given
amplifier. This maximum Vpp is referred
to as the compliance of the amplifier. VCE
