Power BJT - Construction, Operation and its Characteristics: Power transistors are large-area devices. Because of differences in geometry and doping concentrations, their properties tend to vary from those of the…
Light Activated SCR (LASCR) - Symbol, Construction and Operation: Light activated SCR is just an ordinary SCR except that it can also be light triggered. Most LASCRs also have a…
Silicon Controlled Switch (SCS) - Symbol, Operation, Advantages and Application: Silicon controlled switch (SCS), like the SCR, is a unilateral, four layer, three junction P-N-P-N silicon device with four electrodes…
Shockley Diode Equation, Symbol, Operation and Applications: The four layer diode, also called the Shockley diode after its inÂventor Willian Shockley, is essentially a low-current SCR without a gate. It…
Signal Definition and Classification of Signals: A signal is a single valued function of one or more variables that conveys some information. Signals are represented mathematically as the functions of…
Voltage Level Translator (Level Shifter): Voltage Level Translator (Level Shifter) is usually an emitter follower circuit which is used to shift the dc level at the output of the intermediate…
Single Input Balanced Output Differential Amplifier: In a single input balanced output differential amplifier an input signal is applied to either input, with the other input connected to ground. However,…
Dual Input Balanced Output Differential Amplifier: The dual input balanced output differential amplifier configuÂration is shown in Fig. 20.2. In the given circuit two input signals vin1 and vin2Â are applied…
