soru cevap
What is static resistance?
öğrenmeye başla
It is the resistance calculated using Ohm's law as the slope of the V-I curve from the origin to a working point.
What is dynamic resistance?
öğrenmeye başla
It is the small-signal resistance calculated from the change in voltage over the change in current (ΔV/ΔI) at a specific point.
How does temperature affect a standard resistor?
öğrenmeye başla
Resistance increases with temperature due to its positive thermal coefficient.
What is a varistor used for?
öğrenmeye başla
To protect circuits from overvoltage by decreasing resistance sharply above a threshold.
What does a strain gauge measure?
öğrenmeye başla
Mechanical strain, by detecting resistance changes when a conductor is stretched.
How does a thermistor respond to temperature?
öğrenmeye başla
Its resistance changes with temperature: NTC decreases resistance, PTC increases it.
What is the function of a photoresistor?
öğrenmeye başla
To measure light intensity; resistance decreases as light exposure increases.
State Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL).
öğrenmeye başla
The total current entering a node equals the total current leaving it.
State Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL).
öğrenmeye başla
The sum of voltages around any closed loop equals zero.
How does a capacitor behave with frequency?
öğrenmeye başla
In AC, impedance decreases with frequency; in DC, it acts like an open circuit.
Define capacitive reactance.
öğrenmeye başla
Xc = 1 / (2πfC); it measures how a capacitor resists AC.
What affects capacitance?
öğrenmeye başla
Plate area, distance between plates, and dielectric constant of material.
How does an inductor store energy?
öğrenmeye başla
In a magnetic field created by current flowing through it.
Define inductive reactance.
öğrenmeye başla
XL = 2πfL; it increases with frequency, impeding AC.
What is the Hall effect?
öğrenmeye başla
Voltage across a conductor due to a magnetic field acting on moving charges.
What is semiconductor doping?
öğrenmeye başla
Introducing impurities to create free carriers in a semiconductor.
How is an N-type semiconductor formed?
öğrenmeye başla
By adding atoms with more valence electrons, providing free electrons.
How is a P-type semiconductor formed?
öğrenmeye başla
By adding atoms with fewer valence electrons, creating holes.
What is the depletion layer?
öğrenmeye başla
A non-conductive region at a PN junction where charge carriers cancel out.
What is forward bias in a diode?
öğrenmeye başla
Positive voltage on the anode reduces the depletion layer, allowing current.
What is reverse bias in a diode?
öğrenmeye başla
Voltage increases the depletion layer, blocking current flow.
What is the typical forward voltage for a silicon diode?
öğrenmeye başla
Approximately 0.7 volts.
What is a Zener diode used for?
öğrenmeye başla
Voltage regulation in reverse breakdown mode.
Why use a Schottky diode?
öğrenmeye başla
It has a low forward voltage drop and fast switching speed.
What does β represent in BJTs?
öğrenmeye başla
The current gain (Ic/Ib).
What does α represent in BJTs?
öğrenmeye başla
The ratio of collector current to emitter current (Ic/Ie).
What is the Q-point in a transistor?
öğrenmeye başla
The operating point under DC conditions without an input signal.
How does a JFET control current?
öğrenmeye başla
By adjusting gate voltage to control the channel width via the depletion layer.
What is pinch-off voltage in a JFET?
öğrenmeye başla
The voltage at which drain current levels off and saturates.
What is an enhancement-mode MOSFET?
öğrenmeye başla
A transistor that is normally off and requires a positive gate voltage to conduct.
What is a depletion-mode MOSFET?
öğrenmeye başla
A transistor that is normally on and turns off with negative gate voltage.
What is a rectifier?
öğrenmeye başla
A circuit that converts AC to DC using diodes.
What is ripple factor?
öğrenmeye başla
A measure of residual AC in the DC output of a rectifier.
How does a Zener voltage stabilizer work?
öğrenmeye başla
It maintains a constant output voltage by operating in reverse breakdown.
What is a current mirror?
öğrenmeye başla
A circuit that duplicates current from one active device to another.
What is Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)?
öğrenmeye başla
A measure of distortion caused by harmonics in an amplifier's output.
What is Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR)?
öğrenmeye başla
The ability of an amplifier to reject common input signals.
What is amplifier slew rate?
öğrenmeye başla
The maximum rate of change of output voltage in response to a step input.
What is Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)?
öğrenmeye başla
The ratio of signal power to noise power, typically in decibels (dB).
What defines a Class A amplifier?
öğrenmeye başla
Continuous conduction for the full cycle, with high linearity and low efficiency.
What defines a Class B amplifier?
öğrenmeye başla
Each transistor conducts for half the cycle (180°); more efficient, but causes crossover distortion.
What defines a Class AB amplifier?
öğrenmeye başla
Conducts slightly more than 180° to eliminate crossover distortion.
