What is tuned amplifier?- Types, Application, Advantage and disadvantage

Introduction of transistor tuned amplifier – An audio amplifier amplifies a wide band of frequencies equally well and does not allow the selection of a particular desired frequency while rejecting all other frequencies. Sometimes it is desired that an amplifier should be selective that is it should select desired frequency or narrow band of frequencies … Read more

What are the methods of transistor biasing? – What is transistor biasing

Transistor biasing is required for proper operation of transistors in any circuit. The basic purpose of biasing is to keep the base emitter junction forward biased and collector base junction is reverse biased, during the application of signal. Define faithful amplification During amplification the magnitude of signal should increase and there should be no change … Read more

What are the types of transistor oscillators? – Types of transistor oscillator

In the previous article we got some information about oscillators definition, sinusoidal oscillators, essential of transistor oscillators, so today we are going to discuss the different types of transistor oscillators. So let’s start the topic. If the tank and feedback circuit are properly connected a transistor can work as an oscillator to produce continuous discontinuous … Read more

Sinusoidal oscillator – What is Barkhausen criterion – Essentials of transistor oscillator

Before knowing about sinusoidal oscillator, we will get some information about oscillator. After that we will learn about Positive Feedback Amplifier, Essential of Transistor Oscillator and Barkhausen Criterion. So let’s start the topic. Oscillator definition An oscillator is an electronic circuit that produces a repeating electronic signal in equal intervals of time. They are widely … Read more

What are the different classification of power amplifiers?

A transistor power amplifiers handles large signals. Many of those inputs are driven so hard by the large signal that the collector current either cut-off or is in the saturation region during a large portion of the input cycle. Therefore, such amplifiers are generally classified according to their mode of operation, that is the part … Read more

What is transistor audio power amplifier?

Definition – A transistor amplifier which amplifies the power level of a signal having audio frequency range is known as transistor audio power amplifier. A practical amplifier always consists of several stages that amplify a weak signal until sufficient power is available to operate a loudspeaker or other output device. In this multistage amplifier the … Read more

What are special purpose diodes – Zener diode

The most common use of diodes is rectification. Rectifier diodes are use in power supplies to convert a. c. voltage to d. c. voltage. But the diode can’t do only rectification.  Now a days in this fast developing world many specific types of diodes are manufactured for specific application. So some special purpose diodes are … Read more

Four bit ripple counter – What is 4-bit ripple counter?

Here we are discuss some information about working of four bit ripple counter. So till the end stay with us and lets start. One more thing remember a 4-bit ripple counter is also know as 4-bit asynchronous/binary/ripple counter. What is a counter ? Flip flops can be connect together to perform counting operation and such … Read more
