Question # 1

Give two applications of gated in control system.

Ans 1: Gates are widely used in control system.They control the function of the system by monitoring some physical parameters such as temperature ,pressure or some other physical quantity of the system,Sensors are required to operate gates.

Question # 2

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 # 3

How does the motion of an electron in n type substance differ from the motion of holes in a p type substance?

Ans 1: more mobile and rapid than holes in p-type substance because electrons do not require holes for their motions but p-type substance because electrons do not require holes for their motion but hole depend upon electrons for their motion,Both move in opposite direction.

Question # 4

Give four application or uses of photodiode?

Ans 1: It is used as
1. Detection of both visible and invisible radiations.
2. Logic circuits
3. Automatic switching
4. Optical communication equipment

Question # 5

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 # 6

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 # 7

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 # 8

What is semiconductor diode?

Ans 1: p-n junction is called semiconductor diode.

Question # 9

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 # 10

What is the net charge on a n-type or p-type substance?

Ans 1: Since they are electrically neutral substance,So the net charge on them is zero.

Question # 1

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 # 2

Ans 1: OR-GATE implements the logic of OR operation.It has two or more inputs and a single output.Its output will be zero only when all the inputs are zero.

Question # 5

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 # 6

Why the base current is transistor is very small?

Ans 1: Base is very thin so a number of electrons attracted by collector and very few enter into the base.And base current is very small.

Question # 7

What is meant by rectification?

Ans 1: The conversing of alternating current signal into pulsating direct current signal is called rectification.The current for this purpose is called rectifier circuit.

Question # 8

What is the effect of forward biased and reverse biasing of a diode on the width of depletion region?

Ans 1: When forward biased then the width of depletion region decreases and when reverse biased then the width of depletion region increase.

Question # 9

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 # 10

What is photodiode?Write down its two main applications.

Ans 1: Photodiode is used for the detection of light.It is used in reverse biased state.Reverse current increase with the intensity of incident light.When no light incidents then reverse current will be negligble.It is used as
1. Detection of both visible and and invisible radiations
2. Automatic switching
