General Instructions to students for Electronics and Electrical Engineering Lab courses Be punctual to the lab class.

Attend the laboratory classes wearing the rubber sole shoes.

Avoid wearing any metallic rings, etc. as they are likely to prove dangerous at times.

Boys students should tuck in their uniform to avoid the loose cloth getting into contact with rotating machines.

Acquire a good knowledge of the surrounding of your worktable. Know where the various live points are situated in your table.

In case of any unwanted things happening, immediately switch off the mains in the worktable.

This must be done when there is a power break during the experiment being carried out.

Before entering into the lab class, you must be well prepared for the experiment that you are going to do on that day.

You must bring the related text book which may deal with the relevant experiment.

Get the circuit diagram approved.

Make connections as per the approved circuit diagram and get the same verified. After getting the approval only supply

must be switched on.

Get the reading verified.

You must get the observation note corrected on completion of experiment. Write the answer for all the discussion questions in the

observation note

Submit the record note book for the experiment completed in the next class.

If you miss any practical class due to unavoidable reasons, the missed experiment can be performed (if time permits) after

completion of the rotor. No experiment shall be performed after last day of semester

Such of those students who fail to put in a minimum of 75% attendance in the laboratory class will run the risk of not being allowed

for the University Practical Examination. They will have to repeat the lab course in subsequent semester after paying prescribed fee.

Experiment No: 1

Object: To obtain the V-I Characteristics of SCR and to determine the latching current, holding current.

Apparatus Required:

S.No. Name of the equipment Range/Specifications Qty Make

Fig. 1: Circuit diagram for SCR Characteristics

Theory:

Silicon Controlled Rectifier: The Silicon Control Rectifier (SCR) consists of four layers of semiconductors,

which form NPNP or PNPN structures. It has three junctions, labeled J1, J2, and J3 and three terminals. The

anode terminal of an SCR is connected to the P-Type material of a PNPN structure, and the cathode terminal is

connected to the N-Type layer, while the gate of the Silicon Control Rectifier SCR is connected to the P-Type

material nearest to the cathode.

Forward blocking mode: In this mode of operation the anode is given a positive potential while the cathode

is given a negative voltage keeping the gate at zero potential i.e. disconnected. In this case junction J1 and J3 are

forward biased while J2 is reversed biased due to which only a small leakage current flows from the anode to the

cathode until the applied voltage reaches its break-over value at which J2 undergoes avalanche breakdown and at

this break-over voltage it starts conducting but below breakover voltage it offers very high resistance to the flow

of current and is said to be in off state.

Forward conduction mode: SCR can be brought from blocking mode to conduction mode in two ways -

either by increasing the voltage across anode to cathode beyond break-over voltage or by applying of positive

pulse at gate. Once it starts conducting no more gate voltage is required to maintain it in on state. There is one

way to turn it off i.e. Reduce the current flowing through it below a minimum value called holding current.


3

Reverse blocking mode: SCRs are available with reverse blocking capability. Reverse blocking capability

adds to the forward voltage drop because of the need to have a long, low doped P1 region. (If one cannot

determine which region is P1, a labeled diagram of layers and junctions can help). Usually, the reverse blocking

voltage rating and forward blocking voltage rating are the same. The typical application for reverse blocking SCR

is in current source inverters.

Latching Current: Latching current (IL) is the minimum principal current required to maintain the

Thyristor in the on state immediately after the switching from off state to on state has occurred and the

triggering signal has been removed.

Holding Current: Holding current (IH) is the minimum principal current required to maintain the Thyristor

in the 'ON' state.

Model graph:

Fig. 2: V-I Characteristics of SCR

Procedure:

V-I Characteristics:-

1. Make all connections as per the circuit diagram of Fig. 1.

2. Initially keep V1 & V2 at minimum position and R1 & R2 maximum position.

3. Adjust Gate current Ig to some value (2.5/5.0mA) by varying the V1 or R1.

IG1=

VAK (Volts) IA (mA)

IG2=

VAK (Volts) IA (mA)


4

4. Now slowly vary V2 and observe anode to cathode voltage VAK and anode current IA.

5. Tabulate the readings of anode to cathode voltage VAK and anode current IA.

6. Repeat the above procedure for different Gate current Ig.

Gate triggering and finding Vg and Ig:-

1. Keep all positions at minimum.

2. Set anode to cathode voltage VAK to some value say 15V.

3. Now slowly vary the V1 voltage till the SCR triggers and note down the reading of gate current(IG) and

Gate Cathode voltage(VGK) and rise of anode current IA

4. Repeat the same for different Anode to Cathode voltage and find VAK and IG values.

To find latching current:-

1. Keep R2 at middle position.

2. Apply 20V to the anode to cathode by varying V2

3. Raise the Vg voltage by varying V1 till the device turns ON indicated by sudden rise in IA. The current, at

which SCR triggers, is the minimum gate current required to turn ON the SCR.

4. Now, put OFF the gate voltage using S1 and set R2 at maximum position, then SCR should turn OFF, if it

is not turning OFF then reduce V2 till the device turns OFF.

5. Now decrease the R2 slowly, to increase the anode current gradually in steps at which it goes off.

6. At each and every step, put OFF and ON the gate voltage switches V1. If the Anode current is greater than

the latching current of the device, the device stays ON even after switch S1 is OFF, otherwise device goes

to blocking mode as soon as the gate switch is put OFF.

7. If IA>IL then, the device remains in ON state and note that anode current as latching current.

8. Take small steps to get accurate latching current value.

To find holding current:-

1. Now increase load current from latching current level by varying R2 & V2

2. Switch OFF the gate voltage switch S1 permanently (now the device is in ON state)

3. Now increase load resistance(R2), so that anode current starts reducing and at some anode current the

device goes to turn off .Note that anode current as holding current.

4. Take small steps to get accurate holding current value.

5. Observe that IH<IL

Precautions:

1. All the connection should be tight.

2. Ammeter is always connected in series in the circuit while voltmeter is parallel to the conductor.

3. The electrical current should not flow the circuit for long time, otherwise its temperature will increase and

the result will be affected.

4. It should be cared that the values of the components of the circuit do not exceed to their ratings

(maximum value).

5. Before the circuit connection it should be checked out the working condition of all the Components.

Fig. 1: Resistance triggering circuit

Theory:

It includes one fixed resistor (R), variable resistor, diode, SCR(Silicon Controlled Rectifier), Load resistor

(RL). The circuit diagram of an R Triggering consists of Simple resistor; diode combinations trigger and control

SCRs over the full 180 electrical degree ranges, performing well at commercial temperatures. These types of

circuits operate most satisfactorily when SCRs have fairly strong gate sensitivities. Since in a scheme of this type

a resistor must supply all of the gate drive required to turn on the SCR, the less sensitive the gate, the lower the

resistance must be, and the greater the power rating.

It provides phase retard from essential zero (SCR full “on”) to 90 electrical degrees of the anode voltage wave

(SCR half “on”).Diode D1 blocks reverse gate voltage on the negative half-cycle of anode supply voltage. It is

necessary to rate blocking to at least the peak value of the AC supply voltage and the trigger voltage producing the

gate current to fire IGF are in phase. When EAC = Em, at the peak of the AC supply voltage, the SCR can still

trigger with the maximum value of resistance between anode and gate.

Procedure:

1. Make the connections as shown in the circuit diagram of Fig. 1.

2. Adjust the 100K pot meter in its maximum value so the SCR does not fire.

3. Adjust the 100K pot meter slowly till the SCR fires; note the gate current and anode current. Also

observe the wave form on CRO.

4. Increase the gate current and note the variation in anode current.

Experiment No: 3

Object: To study the speed control of Universal motor using Triac.

Apparatus used:

S. No Lab No. Equipment Range/rating Qty. Make

Theory:

Fig. 1. Triac I-V Characteristics Curves

In Quadrant Ι, the Triac is usually triggered into conduction by a positive gate current, labelled above as

mode Ι+. But it can also be triggered by a negative gate current, mode Ι–. Similarly, in Quadrant ΙΙΙ, triggering

with a negative gate current, –ΙG is also common, mode ΙΙΙ– along with mode ΙΙΙ+. Modes Ι– and ΙΙΙ+ are,

however, less sensitive configurations requiring a greater gate current to cause triggering than the more common

Triac triggering modes of Ι+ and ΙΙΙ–.

Also, just like silicon controlled rectifiers (SCR’s), Triac’s also require a minimum holding current IH to

maintain conduction at the waveforms cross over point. Then even though the two thyristors are combined into

one single triac device, they still exhibit individual electrical characteristics such as different breakdown voltages,

holding currents and trigger voltage levels exactly the same as we would expect from a single SCR device.

Triac Applications:

The Triac is most commonly used semiconductor device for switching and power control of AC systems as

the Triac can be switched “ON” by either a positive or negative Gate pulse, regardless of the polarity of the AC

supply at that time. This makes the Triac ideal to control a lamp or AC motor load with a very basic Triac

switching circuit of Fig. 2.

Experiment No: 4

Object: To study and plot the phase firing characteristic of an SCR

Apparatus used:

S. No Lab No. Equipment Range/rating Qty. & Make

Theory:

The circuit with single SCR is similar to the single diode circuit, the difference being that an SCR is used in place

of the diode. Most of the power electronic applications operate at a relative high voltage and in such cases; the

voltage drop across the SCR tends to be small. It is quite often justifiable to assume that the conduction drop

across the SCR is zero when the circuit is analyzed. It is also justifiable to assume that the current through the

SCR is zero when it is not conducting. It is known that the SCR can block conduction in either direction. The

explanation and the analysis presented below are based on the ideal SCR model.

A circuit with a single SCR and resistive load is shown in Fig.1.

Circuit Diagram:

Fig. 1

The source vs is an alternating sinusoidal source. If vs = Vm sin (ωt), vs is positive when 0 < ω t < π, and vs is

negative when π < ωt < 2π. When vs starts become positive, the SCR is forward-biased but remains in the

blocking state till it is triggered. If the SCR is triggered at ωt = α, then α is called the firing angle. When the SCR

is triggered in the forward-bias state, it starts conducting and the positive source keeps the SCR in conduction till

ωt reaches π radians. At that instant, the current through the circuit is zero. After that the current tends to flow in

the reverse direction but the SCR blocks conduction. The entire applied voltage now appears across the SCR. The

various voltages and currents waveforms of the half-wave controlled rectifier with resistive load are shown in

Fig.2 for α=40°.

Fig. 2. Various voltages and currents waveforms for half wave single-phase controlled rectifier with resistive load

at α = 40°

The average voltage, Vdc , across the resistive load can be obtained by considering the waveform shown in Fig.1. sin ! "# −%&'( %&') * "# 1 %&') (1)

The maximum output voltage and can be achieved when α = 0 which is the same as diode case. + "# (2)

The normalized output voltage is the DC voltage divided by maximum DC voltage, Vdm which

can be obtained as shown in equation (3).

The rms value of the output voltage is shown in the following equation:- ,- . sin ! * "# . /( − ) 012* 3 (3)

Vn =Vdc /Vm = 0.5 (1+ cosα) (4)

The rms value of the transformer secondary current and load is: 4- "5#67 (5)

1. When triggered regularly(by providing gate current or voltage) and if sinusoidal voltages are applied to the

SCR anode, it will turn off on each alternate half cycle i.e. when anode current decreases just below the

holding current (IH).By controlling the firing angle we can vary the average rectified current in each half

cycle.

2. Control over a greater part of a cycle is possible with the introduction of a phase shifting RC network. The

voltages across the capacitor will lag the applied voltages by an amount that depends upon the value of R

or C. By varying the values of R or C different values of α may be obtained.

The phase shifting angle

) =2 tan-1(ωRC) (in radians)

Where, C= 1 μF; R=0, 1K, 2K… 10K & ω =2πf, where f=50Hz

3. The anode current through the load resistance RL when SCR is conducting is given by, I V2πR 1 cosα

4. It can be seen that the load current increases abruptly at the point corresponding to the phase shifting angle ∅ and then follows the sine variation until the supply voltages falls below VH at phase angle of (∅) and

current remains zero until the phase shifting angle ∅ is reached again in the next cycle.

The average current i.e. the load current read by the ammeter:

This relation shows that the average rectified current can be controlled by varying the angle of firing the

SCR.

Procedure:

1. Make connections as shown in the circuit diagram.

2. Select 15V AC and 2V AC supply with the help of toggle switch.

3. Turn the decade resistance knob in the anti clock wise direction to its maximum value (R).

4. Now turn the power ON, SCR may not turn ON. Now reduce the value of R so that the SCR fires.

5. Record the anode current and find the angle α from the output waveform observed on CRO.

1. Select fa equal to the highest frequency of the input signal to be differentiated. Then, assuming a value of

C1<1 μF, calculate the value of Rf

2. Calculate the values of R1and Cf so that R1C1=RfCf.

Differentiator has wide applications in:

1. Monostable Multivibrator

2. Signal wave shaping

3. Function Generators.

Circuit Diagram:

Adding the input resistor Rin limits the differentiators increase in gain at a

ratio of Rƒ/Rin. The circuit now acts like a differentiator amplifier at low

frequencies and an amplifier with resistive feedback at high frequencies

giving much better noise rejection. Additional attenuation of higher

frequencies is accomplished by connecting a capacitor Cƒ in parallel with

the differentiator feedback resistor, Rƒ. This then forms the basis of

an Active High Pass Filter.

A circuit in which the output voltage is the integration of the input voltage is called an integrator. no − spsrq = nuvtw

In the practical integrator circuit to reduce the error voltage at the output, a resistor Rf is connected across the

feedback capacitor Cf. Thus, Rf limits the low-frequency gain and hence minimizes the variations in the output

voltage.

The frequency response of the integrator is shown in the Fig. 2. fb is the frequency at which the gain is 0 dB

and is given by qx − syzpsrq

In this figure there is some relative operating frequency, and for frequencies from f to fa the gain 77^ is constant.

However, after fa the gain decreases at a rate of 20 dB/decade.

In other words, between fa and fb of Fig. 2, the circuit acts as an integrator. The gain limiting frequency 'fa' is

given by q| syzpqrq

Normally it is fa<fb. From the above equation, we can calculate Rf by assuming fa & Cf. This is very important

frequency. It tells us where the useful integration range starts.

If fin < fa - circuit acts like a simple inverting amplifier and no integration results,

If fin = fa - integration takes place with only 50% accuracy results,

If fin = 10fa - integration takes place with 99% accuracy results.

In the circuit diagram of Integrator, the values are as: Cf=0.01μF; Rf=15 kΩ. ∴ fa =1061 Hz. Hence the input

frequency is to be taken as 10610 Hz to get 99% accuracy results.

Integrator has wide applications in:

1. Analog computers used for solving differential equations in simulation arrangements.

2. A/D Converters.

3. Signal wave shaping.

4. Function Generators.
