Question # 1

What is principle of vital ground?

Ans 1: In an operational amplifier ,if the non inverting terminal is grounded by the concept of virtual ground the inverting terminal is also at ground potential though there is no physical connection between the inverting terminal and the ground,This is the principle of virtual ground.

Question # 2

How is p-n junction formed?

Ans 1: A p-n junction is formed when a crystal of germanium or silicon is grown in such a way that is its one half is doped with a trivalent impurity and the other half with a pentavalent impurity.

Question # 3

Give any two characteristics of operational amplifier.

Ans 1: Input Resistance: It is the resistance between the + and - input of the amplifier,Whose value is of the order of several mega ohms.
Output resistance:It is the resistance between the output terminal and ground.Its value is only a few ohms.

Question # 5

What is the potential barrier?What is the value of potential barrier of SI and Ge?

Ans 1: The potential difference across the depletion region which acts as a barrier to the flow of charge carriers is called potential barrier.The value of potential barrier for germanium is 0.3V and for silicon is 0.7 V.

Question # 6

What is the role of potential barrier in a diode?How it is formed in diode?

Ans 1: At the formation of pn-junction ,the free electrons in n-region because of their random motion diffuse into the p-region,.As a result of this diffusion a region is formed around the junction consisting of positive and negative ions,Due to charge on these ions a potential difference develops across the depletion region,This potential difference is called potential barrier,stops further diffusion of electron into the p-region.

Question # 7

Write a note on LED.

Ans 1: Light emitting diode are made from the special semiconductor such as gallium arsenide and gallium arsenide phosphide in which the potential barrier between p and n side is such that when electrons combines with a hole during forward biased conduction,a photon of visible light is emitted.
LED are used in 7-segment display,small light sources etc.

Question # 8

Define Depletion region?

Ans 1: A region in a semiconductor device,usually at the junction of p-type and n-type materials ,in which there is neither an excess of electrons nor of holes is called depletion region,It charge less region.

Question # 9

How the normal operation of transistor is achieved?

Ans 1: For the normal operation the base emitter junction of transistor is forward biased and collector base junction is reverse.
In a common emitter amplifier ,input signal is applied between base and emitter and output signal is taken across collector and emitter,Similarly emitter base junction is forward biased and collector base junction is reverse biased.

Question # 10

Why charge carriers are not present in the depletion region?

Ans 1: This is due to the fact when an electron from an n region diffuses into the p-region,it leaves behind a positive ion.When this electron recombines with the hole in the p-region,a negative ion is formed,So no charge carrier are available in this region,though it contains immobile positive and negative ions.

Question # 4

Explain why an ordinary Silicon diode does not emit light.

Ans 1: Ordinary silicon is opaque to light,So it does not emit visible light.It emits infrared light.To emit light ,gallium arsenide or gallium arsenide photodiode are used as semiconductor.

Question # 5

Define Open Loop gain of operational amplifier.

Ans 1: The ratio of output voltage to voltage difference between non -inverting and inverting inputs ,when there is no external connection between the input and output is called open loop gain of operational amplifier.

Question # 6

The anode of a diode is 0.2V positive with respect to the cathode,It it forward biased?

Ans 1: Yes when anode is 0.2V positive with respect to cathode,it is forward biased.But the value of potential barrier for germanium is 0.3 V and for silicon is 0.7 V.Therefore there will be no conduction of current.

Question # 7

Differentiate between the forward biased and the reserve biase.

Ans 1: When p side is positive and n-side is negative,the diode is forward biased.The width of depletion region reduces to which more current is allowed to flow across the junction.The forward resistance is few ohms.
Ans 2: When p side is negative and n side is positive,the diode is reserved biased.The width of depletion region is increased and a very small current flows across the junction due to flow of minority charges carriers,The resistance offered by the diode is several mega ohms.

Define current of gain of a transistor

Ans 1: The ratio of output current to input current is called current gain of a transistor.The ratio of collector current to base current is called current gain of a transistor.
