Question 4 Explanation:
An astable multi-vibrator is providing pulse as given below
But in this case initial voltage at capacitor is zero. So it starts from zero. Also charging time will be larger (normally) than discharging time but it is made equal by using a diode.

Question 5 Explanation:
It is a class D amplifier, so \eta should be high \eta

Question 6 |
In the Schmitt trigger circuit shown in figure, if V_{CE\left ( sat \right )}= 0.1V, the output logic
low level (V_{OL}) is
1.25 V | |
1.35 V | |
2.50 V | |
5.00 V |
Question 6 Explanation:
V_i=0, then first transistor will be cut-off and current through left resistor will drive the second transistor into saturation
Then, V_o=V_{CE,sat}+1.25 \times 10^{-3}\times 10^3
=1.35 V
Then, V_o=V_{CE,sat}+1.25 \times 10^{-3}\times 10^3
=1.35 V
Question 7 |
The circuit of figure shows a 555 Timer IC connected as an astable multivibrator.
The value of the capacitor C is 10 nF. The values of the resistors
R_A \; and \; R_B for a frequency of 10 kHz and a duty cycle of 0.75 for the output
voltage waveform are
R_{A}=3.62 k\Omega , R_{B}=3.62k\Omega | |
R_{A}=3.62 k\Omega , R_{B}=7.25k\Omega | |
R_{A}=7.25 k\Omega , R_{B}=3.62k\Omega | |
R_{A}=7.25 k\Omega , R_{B}=7.25k\Omega |
Question 7 Explanation:
Duty cycle =\alpha =\frac{T_{ON}}{T}
\therefore T_{ON}=\alpha T=0.75 \times 10^{-4}=75 \mu sec
\frac{75 \times 10^{-6}}{0.7 \times 10^{-8}}=R_A+R_B
\therefore R_A+R_B=10.714 \; k\Omega
\therefore T_{OFF}=0.7 \; CR_B
\therefore R_B=\frac{25 \times 10^{-6}}{0.7 \times 10^{-8}}
\;\; R_B=3.57 \; k\Omega , R_A=7.14 \; k\Omega
\therefore T_{ON}=\alpha T=0.75 \times 10^{-4}=75 \mu sec
\frac{75 \times 10^{-6}}{0.7 \times 10^{-8}}=R_A+R_B
\therefore R_A+R_B=10.714 \; k\Omega
\therefore T_{OFF}=0.7 \; CR_B
\therefore R_B=\frac{25 \times 10^{-6}}{0.7 \times 10^{-8}}
\;\; R_B=3.57 \; k\Omega , R_A=7.14 \; k\Omega
