O2 Sensor Circuit
Calculation:
Formulla volatage drop= (R above / R total) * Vin
Vd= 9.1 - 0.63v= 8.47, Vin = 9.1V, R above= 1000 ohms
8.47= (1000/ Rt) * 9.1, 0.9307= 10000/Rt, Rt= 10747.8 ohms= 10744 ohms
Rt= 10774= R6+R7+R8
Rt1= R8+R7=10744- 10000= 744 0hms
Vd=0.63 - 0.23= 0.4V , Vin = 0.63v , R above=R8
0.4v=(R8/Rt1)* 0.63= 0.6349,  R8 = 0.6349 *RtI
RtI * 0.6349= R8
R7= RtI - 0.6349RtI = 0.36 50*744=271.61 =272 ohms
R7= 272 ohms
R8= 744- R7 (744- 272)=472 ohms
R8= 472 ohms
LED, Red= (12v - 0.7v - 1.8v/ 0.0095 Amp=1000 ohms
LED, Yellow= 12v - 0.7v - 1.8v / 0.0095 Amp =1000 0hms
LED, Green = 12v - 0.7v - 1.8v /0.0095 Ams= 1000 ohms
R5= Vs/ Is
Vs= 12v- 0.7v - 9.1v = 2.2V
Is= Izener+ I total R6
It R6=9.1v/ 10000 ohms=0.00091 Amp
Iz=0.0056Amp
Is= 0.0056 + 0.00091= 0.00651 Amp

CIRCUIT TWO ( USING LINEAR REGULATOR)

circuit Liner Regulator
This adjustable liner regulator is used to support the input voltage and the otput voltage.
In this circuit the supply voltage is 12V and various componints are used to for the purpose of voltage drop and LED to physically see if the circuit is working (warning light) and capacitors are used to store energy and release back when switch off.
The purpose of this circuit is to find out the value of voltage out as we did in our calculation which was 5 Volts , this gain value depends on the value of risistors R3 and R2 from the formula.

Calculatioin:
Calculate of the values R3, R2
Vref= 1.25         Vout must = 5V
Use Vout= Vref (1+R3/R2)
Vout = vref (1+R3/R2)
5V= 1.25 (1+R3/R2)
5V/1.25= 1 + R3/R2
4 - = R3/R2
3<R2 = R3
R1 = Vs - VLed/I= 5v - 1.80VLed/ 0.02= 160 ohms
R1= 160 ohms
R2= 240 ohms ( from data sheet)
R3 = 3>R2 ( 3*240= 720 ohms)
R3= 720 ohms.

Designed of circuit on Loc Master 03
I have started to builed the circuit used these components:
One LM317 regulator, three risistors R1180 ohms, R2= 280 ohms R3= 860 0hms. one 1.8V LED, two 25V 47uf capacitors, two 1N401 diodes and one zener diode

Test
First checked the voltage out of cicuit 1, 5.2V out , 2 0V , 3 12Vout.
Checked availble voltage in varios points, the result was positive, available voltage after D13 , 11. 35V which is voltage drope 0.65V, 11V for both zener and C15, avilable voltage before R3 on adj 3. 82V, after R3 availble voltge 0V , across R1 volage drope 3. 01V , and across LED 2V and out is exactky 5.2V that which we got on our calculation.
Problems;
in this crcuit which i buled i had no problem, because my calculation was correct and choesed the correct componint for this circuit and also works perfect which i expected.
Reflection:
Itry to make the circuit simple as possible and used the componint mathematically approved .
next time i hoppe i will make batter circuit than this one .

CIRCUIT ONE ( BIPOLAR JUNCTION TRANSISTOR CIRCUIT)

I have for this circuit: Vs= 12V, two LEDs 1.8V (20mA)      Ic = 20mA

Caculation for R14 &R15:
R = Vs - VLed - Vce / Ic   ( R = 12Vs - 1.80V Led - 0.2Vce / 0.02A Ic= 500 ohms
R14 & R 15 = 500 ohms.
Ib = from data sheet ( Ic = 10mA =0.5mA)
Ic = 20 mA , Ib = 1mA (sat)
B = 110 from the data sheet
Ib = Ic / B  0.02A/ 110 = Ib 0.00018A
R13, 16 = Vb - Vbe / Ib   ( 5V - 0.7V / 0.00018A = 2388 ohms (2.4K ohms)
R13,16 = 2.4 K ohms
The current Ib is low and high risistor in this stage transistor is not saturated , lets find other risistor for Rb.
Vbe (sat) Ic = 10mA , Ib = 0.5mA or Ic = 100mA , Ib= 5mA ( from data sheet)
Ic = 20mA , Ib = 5mA   (from data sheet)
Rb13,16 = Vb - Vbe / Ib   ( 5V - 0.7V / 0.005 = 860 ohms
Rb 13 & 16 = 860 ohms

Saturation: Rb = 5V- 0.7V / 0.005A= 860 ohms
Active ( current gain ); Ib = Ic / B
Rc = Vcc - Vled - vce / Ic  ( 12v - 1.8 v - 0.2v / 0.002A = 500 ohms)

Summary;
Vs = 12V
Led= 1.8V
Vce= 0.2V
Ic = 20mA
R14, 15 = 500 ohms
Vb = 5V
Ib = 5mA
Rb 13, 16 = 860 ohms
Vbe = 0.7V

Next step start to disigened the circuit on Loc Master 03


I have start to build the circuit;
Componint : two C577 transistor, two 1.8v LEDs, two 1Kohms risistors, two 680 ohms risstors & circuit bord.

This is a bipolar junction transitor circuit consist of two LEDs in parallel, four roistors, and two transistors which i will be focusing on there functions. BJT has three terminal electronic divice constracted of dope semiconductor materialwhich is using in switching applications.
This BJT circuit needs only 5V to switch a 20mA lamp it means that this 5V Will go trogh base to emitter to open the gates for Vcewich is higher voltage to cause the signal or the LED to flash and this process take place in Active Region of the transistor, Normally transistor has three regions.
1) Active Region; where power dissipation is very high.
2) Satuaration Region ; with both junction forward biase, BJT saturation mode facilites high current conduction from emetter to the collecor which is closed switch.
3) Cut off Region: This is the opposiite to saturation , both junction are revers bias there is very little current flow  which corresponds to an open switch.
The easy and more effecint way to find the three region and calculate the current gain is the graph of Vce, Vs , Ic for diffrent level of Ib  and the common emetter circuit B (Beta) which is ratio between collector current and base current and represinting in B = Ic / Ib
The two pulsing terminal which are only 5V going throgh base to emitter (Vbe) and this will open the gate for the collector to emitter (Vce) .

TEST:

Test
Suppling 12V to the circiut with two terminals connected to the 5V supplay for the open gates of the VCE.
Checked avaliable voltage in varios points and the ressults were positive, checked available voltage after R15= 11.38V, voltage drope led 2 2V , voltage drope vce 0.74v, voltage drope bce 0.72v , voltage drope between R15 to colector 6.20V, LED1 voltage drope 1.90V, transistor2 be 0.70V.
testing of this circiut gave me positve result because switching the transistor voltage 0.6v - 0.70V and the Led s on ad brightness . i can say if the vbe is less the the current cant flow to emmiter and the LEDs of this circuit shuld not brightt,.
Reflection:
I made this circuit sample and easey i follow the instruction and also i had no diffeculty in this circuit just only i had connect one of resistor in wrong place than i noticed quuik unsoldred and put on right place .
next time i hope i would make batter than this circuit.

EXPERMENT NO.8

. Use a Set up the following circuit on bred board470 R for Rc and a BC547 transistor.

In this circuit i used five resistors for Rb. 1M, 47K, 220K, 270K & 330K ohms. Why we doing that , because change the risitors we see when the transistor saturated switch rigion and when is active amplifier region. Also i had record voltage drop across Vce & Vbe & recorded the current for Ic & Ib.
Every change the risitor for Rb i have measure & recorded in below chart.

Rb 270K    Vbe: 0.66V       Vce: 1.73V         Ib: 0.02mA        Ic: 0.425mA
Rb 47K      Vbe: 0.67V       Vce: 0.72V         Ib: 0.10mA        Ic: 4.38mA
Rb 2.2K      Vbe: 0.70V       Vce: 0.16V        Ib: 1.97mA        Ic: 4.46mA
Rb 1M        Vbe: 0.63V       Vce: 2.25V        Ib: 0.01mA        Ic: 0.02mA
Rb 330K     Vbe: 0.66V       Vce: 0.25V        Ib: 0.02mA        Ic: 4.13mA

Let see some of my experiment pictures, I had take of every measarment that,s too much just afew i will put in this blogg.
In this picture voltage drop across Vbe, for Rb 270K.


Mesurment of current Ic, Rb 47K ohms in circuit.


   In this picture measuring current flow Ib for Rb 47K.


Measuring Voltage drop a cross Vce for Rb 1M in the circuit.


    
In this picture measuring current of Ic, Rb 330K ohms in the circuit.

Now discussing what happed for Vce during expeeriment & what caused of change.
In this circuit i had used diffrent resistor the big risistor on Rb Voltage a cross Vce is high small risistor voltage drop Vce is low. We can see when high voltge drop on Vce this cauuse we have put big risstor on Base that way high risstnce on base means less current flowing on base (Ib) and Ic is also low current. In this stage the transitor in cutt off or active region not saturatioin region, because not enough current for Ib to switch on of transisor. The small risistor voltage drop across Vce is low and the current Ib is high and also the curret of Ic is also high in this the transistor is the saturarated region.
If we see on record on top the smallest risistor i used in this circuit in Rb is 2.2K ohms the Vce is 0.16V , Ib 1.97mA & Ic 4.46mA that is the transistor is saturated region fully swith on , because more current flowing on base. The voltage drop across Vce from below 0.3V transistor is in saturaed region and above 2.0V transistor is in active region.

Discuss what happened for Vbe during this experiment . What change took place, if any and what caused the change?
The voltage drop in Vbe in this circuit not changed in any diffrent risistor, because transistors are designed two diode back to back voltge drop Vbe sammelar like normal diode.Also risistor only control the current not voltage taht way changing the risistor only change the current flow Ib & Ic voltage drop Vbe is same.
We allways in our calculation voltage drop Vbe is 0.7V.
For example: if we want to find the valve of risitor Rb incircuit we used this formulla.
Rb= Vb - Vbe / Ib  (Rb= 5v -0.7Vbe /Ib).

Discuss what happened for Ib duuring in this experiment. What took place, and what caused the change     
During this experiment current Ib is changing the cause of cahnging Ib is risistor high risstance on base less current flow to base to emitter and Ic is also low. The big risistor on circuit voltage drop a cross the Vce is high means high voltage dorop on Vce that way we can get less current on base, Also in less current or not enough current the transistor is cutt off rigion or active region. Small risistor current Ib is high and vce is low transistor is saturated.

Discuss what happened for Ic during this experement. what change took place , and what caused the change?
Ic current flow to collector is also related to risistor, high risitance more current . In this circuit i have noticed high voltage drop across vce get less curent Ic . When i used a small ristor on base we can get more current in Ib .When Vce is less the Ib is high .If we lock the plot the Vce geting smaller Ic is going up and also the Ib and transitor is saturated . You can see difrence of Ic in ristor in my measarment rrecod .

Calculate the Beta (Hfe) of this transistor.
B= IC/Ib     B= 0.425/Ib 0.02mA= 21.25  OR (Ib= IC/Ib  0.425mA/B21.25= Ib 0.02mA
                 B= IC4.38mA/Ib0.10mA= B 43.8   OR (Ic4.38mA/B43.8= Ib 0.10)
                 B= Ic4.46mA/ Ib 1.97= B 22
                 B= Ic0.002A / Ib 001A = B 20
                 B =Ic 0.o413A / Ib 0.002A = B 20.65

Explain what the load line graph is telling you.. Discuss the region of graph where the transistor is Saturated, cut off, or in the Active area.

The load line the graph is telling cut off and saturated region. the end of the load from Ic to is the large supplay voltage , if the saturated area when the base current has incresed The emmeter base junction is forward biase infact if the base current it can cause Ic current flow to increase.
In saturation the transistor
Volt 0- 0.2V
Vce<=0.2V tis knew the saturate volt or Vce(sat)
Ib >0.and Ic >0
Vbe>= 0.7V
Cutt off region the transisor inaactive. In the cutt off the following behave is noted
Ib = 0 (no base current)
Ic = 0 (no collecor emmeter )
Vbe = 0.7V (emetter , base junction is not forward)
Active region the transistor can act as fairly liner amplipir in this region
0.2V>Vce<Vce
Ib>0 and Ic>0
Vbc> = 0.7V
The transistor in ON and  the collector to emetter voltage is some where between the cutt off and saturated stage. this the transistor is able to amplyfy smalll voltage present to the base the act is extracted if the collector in forward active stage the collector current is proprtional to the base current by a constant multiplir Beta (Ic= B* Ib).

EXPERMENT NO. 7 Transistor as aseitch

Componints; 1 * Small signal NPN transistor, 2 resistors.
Exercise; Connect the circuit  Vs 15V, R1= 10K ohms, R2 = 1K ohms

I had build this circuit and used 1 * 1K ohms, 1 * 10K ohms transistor, 1 * PNP(C557) transistor and 15Vs.
Connect the multimeter between base and emitter.
Note the voltage reading reading and explain what this reading is indicating.

The voltage drop between base and emitter in my test 0.78V.
The voltage drop across the base to emitter junction is also called in datasheet Vbe, this also for silicon transistor 0.6V to 0.7V is the valve of the voltage drop.
If we calcullate the current that will flow in the base must subtract this valve from the total voltage.
for example: We have in this circiut 15Vs the voltage across the R1 = 14.2V (15Vs - 14.2 - 0.7=0
Vcc=IC*Rc+Vce or Vcc- Ic * Rc - Vce =0.

Connect the meter beteween collector and emitter .
Note the voltage reading and explain wwhat this reading is indicating


The voltage drop between collector and emiter is 55.8 mv.
The voltage drop between collector and emetter even is saturated means not perfect conducter. This voltage is also call Vce (sat). BJT two transistor connect back to back . If the transistor saturated voltge .55v in this circuit the current that mean the current will fully switch on Vs - Vce / R.

In the plot given below what are the regions indicated by the arrows A &B?

Arrow A is SATURATION region in this region emitter and collector are in forward biased , which is the Vce is will be zero and the supplay volatage will be across the load means ON .

Arrow B is represiting CUTOFF region the emitter and collector junction are be in reverse bisssed , and this region the current Ib is zero and the collector current will not fllowing. means (OFF)
Cutoff and saturation regions the miniumum power dissipation of transistor are :
Furmulla: PD=Vce * Ic  in both regions Vce are =0 then the Pd = 0 if we flow  the ohms law P=VI.

What is the power dissipated by the transistor at Vce of 3V?

P= IV
Pd = Vce * Ic
Pd = 3Vce * 14Ic = 42mW( 4.2W)

What is the Beta of this transistor at VCe 2, 3 and 4 Volts?

B= IC / Ib
Vce2, B= Ic/Ib   20Ic/0.8Ib = B25
Vce3, B = Ic/Ib   14Ic/0.5Ib = B28
Vce4, B = Ic/Ib    5Ic/0.2Ib = B25

EXPERMENT NO. 6 Meter check of transistor

Meter Check of Transistor

In this experment i'd explain how can check the Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT).
BJT transistor three layer semiconductor two type PNP or NPN these like two diodes connected back to back. When we testing with a multimeter with diode function. How can identify PNP or NPN? Low voltge reading meter with the negative (-) leads that is the N type transistor which is PNP transistor .
low voltagereading with positve(+) lead on base wich opposite of NPN.

The thyory of BJT
Transisor are current controled soled state divices, that cunduct current in proportin to an inpt current .
The symbol of BJT PNP & NPN transsitors are bellow;
For the NPN transistor, current flowing into into base (B) of transistor the resullt in proportionally a large current to flowing between collector (C) & emitter (E).
The curent flowing out of base PNP transistor alows propoortional current to flow between the (E) & (C).

BJT terminal identified by meter.
I have got two BjT NPN &PNP for identifing legs of transistor used my multi meter on diode function, and folow instruction my work book page 18 .
The meter reading recoord in below chart, also the pictures you can see reading.

In this i have find wich terminal of risistor are collector, base and emitter.
the first thiing i notesed meter reading only between two terminl of ristor . The reading between emitter to base in my reading 0.7V that should in forward biase, which is NPN (BJT). Also collector to base in PNP 0.71v i had recorded .These reading also idintify me wich is PNP or NPN because , current flowing from emitter to base on PNP current can not flkowing  from base or collector to emitter, and in NPN current flowing from base to emitter, also we can say in forward biase.
                 

EXPERMENT NO. 5 ( The Capacitor)

Capacitor

First i would like write some about capcitor:
Capacitors are componint that are used to store electrical charge in used in circuit. Capacitor can be used with risstor to preduce a. some that capacitor used to smooth a current in the circuit, that can prevent false trigger of other component, suh as really
when the power supplay to the circiut that induced a capacitor. The capacitor caharge up when power is turend off and the capacitor discharges it is electrical charge slowlly.

Acapcitor is composed of two conductors sepretelly lay an issulation matireal called (Dielectric). That can be paper, plastic film, cermic, air or vacuim.the plate can be almunium disc, almunium foil or then film of metal appled of opposit side.the p;ate is negative and positve, these capacitor called (electrolyte capcitor) polarised wich mens they have (posiitve ) and (negative ) leads must be in acircuit in right way.
The other type is non elctrolyte the have a lower capacitance they are not polorise , do not have positve and negative leads can be placed anywayin the circuit. They are used normmally  to smooth current in the ciirciut.

                                                           ( Non electolyte capacior)
Capitor charging Circuit
Componints: 1 * resistor, 1 * capacitor , 1 push button switch.
In this exersise i used diffrent size of resistors and capacitors. first i had calculation and used they in serise circuit and measured time on oscilloscope and recorded in the chart beloow .

Calculation: The time depends on the ristance and capacitance (RC) in a circuit, the time constance can be calculated using uquation
T= RC
T= time in second
R= resistance in ohms
C= capacitancein frads
After 5 time constance a capacitor will be fully charging, there for the charging time of capacitor equal 5time the time connstance.
we used this formula (R*C*5=)

Connect of capacitor:
In series , work the opposit to risistors and the overal of valve of capcitor will rediuce. the formula to calculate total capacitor in serius     1/CT= 1/C1+1C2+1/C3
I n parallel, when capcitor connected the result the sum of all capacitors.
formula ;  CT = C1+C2+C3

Now i made a cicuit wich is 12Vs resistor and capacitor, i have used in that circuit diffrent size of resistor and capacitors,and measured time by used oscillscope. the observed time i recrded in chart up , and next some pictures shows wayform on oscvillocope.

Cicuit 1                             CH1     5V per division        time: 50ms per division
Capacitance: 100uF      Resistance: 1Kohms


Circuit: 2                       CH1             5V per division          time; 10ms per division
Capacitance; 100uF           Resistance: 100 ohms


Circuit ; 3                       5 V per division                    time: 25ms per division
Capacitance: 100uF              Resistance 447 0hms

Circuit 4                       5V per division                  time 25ms
Capacitance: 330uF                  Resistance: 1K ohms

How does change in the resistor affect the charging time/
If we look my calculation and obsevation time we can notice the big resistor take more charging time to charge the capacitor, and also the big capacitor has get more time to charge but store charging time is longer then small.

How does charging in the capacitor affect the chargingtime?
When the the circiut switch on the capcitor charge up when switch turned off elctricty stor for few seconds in the capacitor. the capacitor discharge slowlly . if resistor intruduce to the circuit the capacitor charge more up slowlly but also discharge slowlly
Bellow graph of chargin and discharging.
