Gate I is OR gate, $$Y' = A + B$$
Gate II is AND gate, $$Y = Y' \cdot C$$
$$\therefore A = 1,B = 0,C = 1\,{\text{will}}\,{\text{give}}\,Y = 1$$

The circuit has two oppositively connected ideal diodes in parallel. What is the current flowing in the circuit?
A
$$1.71 A$$
B
$$2.00 A$$
C
$$2.31 A$$
D
$$1.33 A$$
Answer :
$$2.00 A$$
$${D_2}$$ is forward biased whereas $${D_1}$$ is reversed biased. So effective resistance of the circuit
$$\eqalign{
& R = 4 + 2 = 6\Omega \cr
& \therefore i = \frac{{12}}{6} = 2\,A \cr} $$
23.
In a common emitter transistor amplifier the audio signal voltage across the collector is $$3\,V.$$ The resistance of collector is $$3\,k\Omega .$$ If current gain is 100 and the base resistance is $$2\,k\Omega ,$$ the voltage and power gain of the amplifier is
A
15 and 200
B
150 and 15000
C
20 and 2000
D
200 and 1000
Answer :
150 and 15000
Given, current gain $$\beta = 100,{R_c} = 3\,k\Omega ,{R_b} = 2\,k\Omega $$
Voltage gain $$\left( {{A_v}} \right) = \beta \frac{{{R_c}}}{{{R_b}}} = 100\left( {\frac{3}{2}} \right) = 150$$
Power gain $$ = {A_v}\beta = 150\left( {100} \right) = 15000$$

The device that can act as a complete electronic circuit is
A
Junction diode
B
Integrated circuit
C
Junction transistor
D
Zener diode
Answer :
Integrated circuit
Integrated circuits are miniature electronic circuit produced within a single crystal of a semiconductor such as silicon. They contain a million or so transistors and resistors or capacitors. They are widely used in memory circuits, micro computers, pocket calculators and electronic watches on account of their low cost and bulk, reliability into specific regions of the semiconductor crystals.

In a common-base configuration of a transistor $$\frac{{\Delta {i_c}}}{{\Delta {i_e}}} = 0.98,$$ then current gain in common emitter configuration of transistor will be
A
49
B
98
C
4.9
D
24.5
Answer :
49
The current gain $$\left( \alpha \right)$$ in common-base configuration is
$$\eqalign{
& \alpha = \frac{{\Delta {i_c}}}{{\Delta {i_e}}}\,\,\left[ {{\text{at}}\,{\text{constant voltage across}}\,{\text{collector base junction}}} \right] \cr
& = 0.98 \cr} $$
The current gain in common-emitter configuration
$$\beta = \frac{\alpha }{{1 - \alpha }} = \frac{{0.98}}{{1 - 0.98}} = \frac{{0.98}}{{0.02}} = 49$$
28.
The transfer ratio $$\beta $$ of a transistor is 50. The input resistance of the transistor when used in the common emitter configuration is $$1\,k\Omega .$$ The peak value of the collector $$AC$$ current for an $$AC$$ input voltage of $$0.01\,V$$ peak is
A
$$100\,\mu A$$
B
$$0.01\,mA$$
C
$$0.25\,mA$$
D
$$500\,\mu A$$
Answer :
$$500\,\mu A$$
Input current or base current is given by
$${i_b} = \frac{{\Delta {V_b}}}{{{R_b}}} = \frac{{0.01}}{{1000}} = {10^{ - 5}}A\left[ {_{{R_b} = {\text{ base resistance}}}^{\Delta {V_b} = {\text{ input voltage}}}} \right]$$
Also current gain
$$\beta = \frac{{{i_c}}}{{{i_b}}}$$
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore {i_c} = \beta {i_b} = 50 \times {10^{ - 5}}A \cr
& = 500 \times {10^{ - 6}}A \cr
& = 500\,\mu A \cr} $$
29.
For a transistor amplifier in common emitter configuration
for load impedance of $$1k\,\Omega $$ $$\left( {{h_{fe}} = 50} \right.$$ and $$\left. {{h_{oe}} = 25} \right)$$ the current gain is
A
- 24.8
B
- 15.7
C
- 5.2
D
- 48.78
Answer :
- 48.78
In common emitter configuration current gain
$${A_i} = \frac{{ - h{f_e}}}{{1 + {b_{oe}}{R_L}}} = \frac{{ - 50}}{{1 + 25 \times {{10}^{ - 6}} \times 1 \times {{10}^3}}} = - 48.78$$

An experiment is performed to determine the $$1-V$$ characteristics of a Zener diode, which has a protective resistance of $$R = 100\,\Omega ,$$ and a maximum power of dissipation rating of $$1\,W.$$ The minimum voltage range of the $$DC$$ source in the circuit is:
A
$$0-5\,V$$
B
$$0-24\,V$$
C
$$0-12\,V$$
D
$$0-8\,V$$
Answer :
$$0-12\,V$$
The minimum voltage range of $$DC$$ source is given by
$$\eqalign{
& {V^2} = PR \cr
& \because P = 1\,watt, \cr
& R = 100\,\Omega = 1 \times 100 \cr
& \therefore V = 10\,volt. \cr} $$
