2 EEE106 Electronics II:.0 Background Theory An amplifier is a circuit that creases/decrease the put signal value and this experiment the signal to be amplified is the voltage. In this experiment you are gog to vestigate frequency response characteristic of a voltage amplifier circuit usg the N-channel JFET device Most amplifiers have relatively constant ga over a certa range of frequencies. This range of frequencies is called the bandwidth of the amplifier. The bandwidth for a given amplifier depends on the circuit component values, the type of active components and the dc operatg pot of the active component. When an amplifier is operated with its bandwidth, the current ga ( ) i A, voltage ga ( ) A, and power ga ( ) v A values are referred to as midband ga values. A simplified frequency-response curve that represents the relationship between amplifier ga and operatg frequency is shown Figure 1. p Power a A p drops at lowerfrequencies Mid-band A p drops at higher frequencies A p(mid) 0.5A p(mid) Bandwidth f c1 Frequency Figure 1: A simplified frequency response curve As the frequency-response curve shows, the power ga of an amplifier remas relatively constant across a band of frequencies. When the operatg frequency starts to go outside this frequency range, the ga begs to drop. Two frequencies of terest, fc1 and f c, are the frequencies at which power ga decreases to approximately 50% of A p(mid ). The frequencies labeled f c1 and f c are called the lower and upper cutoff frequencies of an amplifier, respectively. These frequencies are considered to be the bandwidth limits for the amplifier and thus bandwidth BW is given by BW = f c f. c1 The geometric average of f c1 and f c is called the geometric center frequency f o of an amplifier, given by f = f c f. 0 1 c When the operatg frequency is equal to f 0, the power ga of the amplifier is at its maximum value. Frequency response curves and specification sheets often list ga values that are measured decibels (db). The db power ga of an amplifier is given by f c
3 EEE106 Electronics II: A out p( db) = 10log Ap = 10log. P Positive and negative decibels of equal magnitude represent reciprocal gas and losses. A +3dB ga caused power to double while a 3dB ga caused power to be cut half. vout v Usg the basic power relationships, Pout = and P =, the power ga may be R R rewritten as Pout vout R vout R Ap( db) = 10 log = 10 log = 0 log + 10log P v R v R The voltage component of the equation is referred to as db voltage ga. When the amplifier put and out resistances are equal vout A p( db) = 0log = Av ( db). ( R = R ) v Thus, when the voltage ga of an amplifier changes by 3dB, the power ga of the amplifier also changes by 3dB. ow Frequency Response of FET Amplifier In the low frequency region of a sgle stage FET amplifier as shown Figure (a), it is the RC combations formed by the network capacitors and the network resistive parameters that determe the cutoff frequency. There are three capacitors two couplg capacitor C and C, and one bypass capacitor, C S. et us assume thatc, C and S and can be represented by short-circuit. The total resistance series with R = R + R C P C are arbitrarily large C is given by where R R R = 1 is the put impedance of the amplifier circuit. The power supplied by the signal generator is P = Vgen /( R + R ). However, the reactance X C of capacitance C is not negligible at very low frequencies. The frequency at which P is cut half is when X = R + R. Thus the lower half-power pot for gate circuit occurs at frequency C f 1 = = πr C π C 1 ( R + R ) C +V R R C R C S R V gen V R 1 R S C S Figure (a): Schematic diagram of a JFET amplifier
4 EEE106 Electronics II: C R C V S R R V gen V R1 R R S C S Figure (b): JFET amplifier low-frequency ac equivalent circuit V C g m V gs R R S Figure (c): Approximate dra circuit of JFET amplifier (assumg the resistance of the JFET dra termal, r d, is much larger than R ). When C and C S are arbitrarily large and can be represented by short-circuit, the dra circuit of the JFET amplifier is as shown Figure (c). At high frequency where C can also be represented by a short-circuit, the output power to load resistor R is P = V / R. At low frequencies where the reactance X C of capacitance C is not negligible, P out is cut half when X = R. Thus the lower half-power pot for dra circuit occurs at frequency C f 1 = πr C At the half-power pot, the output voltage reduces to times its midband value. The actual lower cutoff frequency is the higher value between f (determed by C ) and f (determed by C ). High Frequency Response of FET Amplifier The high frequency response of the FET is limited by values of ternal capacitance, as shown Figure 3(a). There is a measurable amount of capacitance between each termal pair of the FET. These capacitances each have a reactance that decreases as frequency creases. As the reactance of a given termal capacitance decreases, more and more of the signal at the termal is bypassed through the capacitance. out

6 EEE106 Electronics II: Note the absence of capacitors C, C and C S Figure 3(b), which are all assumed to be short circuit at high frequencies. From this figure, the gate and dra circuit capacitance are given by C = C + C and C = Cout ( M ) + Cds + C gs (M ) where C is the put capacitance of the followg stage. In general the capacitance C gs is the largest of the parasitic capacitances, with C ds the smallest. The high cutoff frequencies for the gate and dra circuits are then given by f H = 1 πr C and f H 1 = πr' C where R = R R and R ' = R R. At very high frequencies, the effect of C is to reduce the total impedance of the parallel combation of R 1, R and C Figure 3(b). The result is a reduced level of voltage across the gate-source termals. Similarly, for the dra circuit, the capacitive reactance of C will decrease with frequency and consequently reduces the total impedance of the output parallel branches of Figure 3(b). It causes the output voltage to decrease as the reactance becomes smaller. 3.0 Procedures 1. Before connectg the circuit of Figure 5, measure the actual resistance of R 1, R, R, R S and R as accurate as possiblewith a digital multimeter (set it to the best resistance range) and record the measured values.. Connect the common source JFET amplifier circuit as shown Figure 5 usg a breadboard (refer to Appendix B). o not connect the power supply and the function generator to the circuit yet. Keep the connectg wires on the breadboard as short as possible (< 3 cm) to reduce unwanted ductance and capacitance your circuit. 3. Set the power supply output to +1V. Connect its output to the circuit and measure its voltage V (meas) as accurate as possible with the multimeter. Calculate the gate C voltage V (cal) usg the voltage-divider rule. 4. Measure the C voltages V, V and V S at,, and S ps of the transistor as accurate as possible. Note that the measured V should be closed to the calculated V (cal), and V S should be >V sce V S must be < 0 V for N-channel JFET. 5. Before connectg the function generator to the circuit, use an oscilloscope to measure the output voltage of the generator and set it to 00 khz se-wave with a peak-to-peakvoltage of 0.1V. Press the attenuation button (ATT) of the generator for easy adjustment of its output voltage. 6. Connect the generator output to the circuit. Usg Channel 1 (CH1) of the oscilloscope (set at AC put couplg), probe the put voltage v. Usg Channel (CH) of the oscilloscope, probe the load resistor R, as shown Figure 5. Set the trigger source of the oscilloscope to CH. Adjust the trigger level on the oscilloscope to obta stable waveforms. Make sure the variable (VAR) knobs of the oscilloscope are set at the calibrated (CA ) positions.

Adjust the Volts/div and Time/div to display the waveforms on the oscilloscope screen as big as possible with one to two cycles. Sketch the put AC voltage (v ) and the load voltage (v ) waveforms on the graph. Record the Time/div and Volts/div used. Note that the put and output waveforms should be approximately 180 o out of phase. 8. From your graph, determe V (pp) and V (pp) which are the peak-to-peak voltages ofv and v, respectively. Calculate the voltage ga (A v ) of the JFET amplifier circuit at 00 khz.ask the structor to check all of your results. You must show the oscilloscope waveforms to the structor. 9. Sweep the frequency of the function generator from 1 khz to 550 khz (use smaller frequency steps near the half-power pot while larger steps can be used at mid-band frequencies). Record the peak-to-peak voltages of v (CH1) and v (CH) and calculate the db magnitude of the voltage ga A v. Use both coarse and fe adjustment knobs of the function generator for frequency adjustment. 10. Plot a curve of A v versus frequency. 11. Calculate the lower cutoff frequency f (cal) (use the measured R and R values). Set the frequency to 0 khz. To measure the lower cutoff frequency (f ), decrease the generator frequency until V (pp) decreases to 0.707V,mid-band(pp), where V,mid-band(pp) is the V (pp) value the mid-band. 1. Set the frequency to 300 khz. To measure the upper cutoff frequency (f H ), crease the generator frequency until V (pp) decreases to 0.707V,mid-band(pp). 13. eterme the bandwidth (BW) and the geometric center frequency (f o ) of the amplifier from the above measurements. Ask the structor to check all of your results. You must show the oscilloscope waveforms at 550 khz to the structor. 14. esign or modify the circuit Figure 5 order to measure the parameter of the device, namely ate-source Cutoff Voltage (V S(off) or V p ) and Zero-ate Voltage Current (I SS ). These two values can be used the Shockley equation I = I SS (1 V S /V p ). Ht: You can use a potentiometer and/or negative power source the circuit. By solvg the simultaneous equation of the Shockley equation and the load le equation, you can obta the calculated value for the Q pot V SQ, V SQ, I Q.. Compare this with the measured value.
