Basic Electronics (ECE 101) PDF

This document is an exam paper for a Basic Electronics course. It contains 6 questions with multiple parts each testing different concepts in electronics. Question 1 has parts on rectifier circuits and AM receivers. Question 2 covers high-pass filter design, astable multivibrators, and binary addition. Question 3 tests asynchronous counters, triangular waveform generators, and clipper circuits. Later questions cover op-amp circuits, amplitude modulation, transistor circuits, binary addition, and Zener regulators. The exam tests a wide range of fundamental electronics concepts through circuit analysis and design problems.

diagrams. Suppose, a bridge rectifier feeds a DC current of 10 A to a resistive load
from a sinusoidal alternating supply of 30 V (rms), determine the resistance of the
load and the efficiency of the rectifier.
1B. Draw the block diagram of AM super-heterodyne receiver and explain its each
block showing the waveforms at each stage. (5+5)

2A. Design a high-pass filter having a cut-off frequency of 1 kHz and pass-band gain of
2, given that C = 0.01F and RF =10 k. Draw the circuit & frequency response of
the filter.
2B. Explain the working of astable multivibrator using IC 555 with neat circuit diagram
and waveforms. Give the expression for the frequency of its output.
2C. Write the truth table of a binary half adder. Draw its logic circuit using only basic
gates. (4+4+2)

3A. Explain the working of positive edge-triggered 3-bit asynchronous down-counter


using JK flip-flops, with timing diagrams.
3B. With a neat circuit diagram & waveforms, explain the operation of triangular
waveform generator using OP-AMP.
3C. What is a clipper circuit? Explain using the circuit diagram and waveform of a
clipper that clips part of the positive half-cycle. What is its application? (4+3+3)
