Theory:
The term passive component refers to the any device or component, which does not introduce gain or does not have directional function. Such components conduct s current in both directions and therefore known as bilateral devices. Most commonly used passive components/elements are 1) Resistors 2) Inductors 3) Capacitors 1) RESISTORS : A resister is electrical component, which has been manufactured with specified amount of resistance. A resistor can conduct current in both directions. The resistors are mainly used for two purposes, namely to controlling the flow of current & providing the desired amount of voltage in electric or electronic circuit. Resistor Specifications: The resistors are specified in terms of their resistance values, tolerance, power rating and thermal stability. CLASSIFICATION OF RESISTORS:a) Fixed Resistors i) Carbon Composition Resistors ii) Thin Film Resistors - Carbon Film Resistor - Metal Film Resistor iii) Thick Film Resistors - Metal Oxide Film Resistors - Bulk Property Film Resistors Cermet Film Resistors iv) Wire Wound Resistors b) VARIABLE RESISTORS i) ii) iii) Variable Wire Wound Potentiometers Trimmers
FIXED RESISTORS: Fixed resistors are those whose values do not change with variation in applied voltages, temperature & light intensity. Such resistors are available in various shapes and sizes with both axial and radial leads. Fixed resistors are of following types. i) Carbon Composition resistors These resistors are made by mixing carbon powder and insulating binders to produce the desired value of resistance.

Carbon composition resistors are available in resistance values ranging from 1 to 22 M and power rating of 1/8,1/4,1/2,1Watts. ii) Thin film resistors These resistors are made by depositing vary thin layer of conducting material on an insulated rod, tube or plate made of ceramic or glass. Thin film resistors are again divided into following two types - Carbon film resistors:

b) Variable resistors: These resistors, like fixed resistors are used to control current flow and provide desired amount of voltage in electric or electronic circuit. The resistance values of variable linear resistors can be varied from 0 to the specified value Variable resistors are of following three types. 1.Variable wire wound resistors: - These resistors are made of nichrome wire wound around a ceramic core and covered with an isolative coating. A window is left in insulting cover, which exposes the resistive wire as shown in fig (a). An adjustable tap B rides along the exposed wire, which makes the electrical contact with the wire. Fig (b) is the schematic symbol of variable wire wound resistor

2. Potentiometer: - It is a three terminal variable resistor as shown in fig (a). Its outer terminals are fixed and middle terminal is variable. The variation is provided by wiper connected to a control shaft. When control shaft is moved, the wiper moves over a resistive element. This movement provides continuous variation in resistance between the middle terminal and either outside terminal. - The name POTETIOMETER comes from the use of this device as a potential meter. 3. Trimmers: - These are used in electronics circuits to trim the circuit to the required operating conditions by inserting a small screw driver into a slot and turning one or more times. - The trimmers are available both in single and multi turns as shown in fig.
IDENTIFYING RESISTORS Most axial resistors use a pattern of coloured stripes to indicate resistance.SMT ones follow a numerical pattern. 4-band axial resistors:4 band identification is the most commonly used colour coding scheme on all resistors. It consists of four coloured bands that are painted around the body of the resistor. The first two numbers are the first two significant digits of the resistance value, the third is a multiplier, and the fourth is the tolerance of the value. Each colour corresponds to a certain

INDUCTORS An inductor or a reactor is a passive electrical component that can store energy in a magnetic field created by the electric current passing through it. An inductor's ability to store magnetic energy is measured by its inductance, in units of henries (H). Typically an inductor is a conducting wire shaped as a coil, the loops helping to create a strong magnetic field inside the coil due to Faraday's law of induction.
Page 6
a) Fixed Inductors: Air-core Inductor: This inductor is made of coils of wire wound on former made of simple cardboard. The aircore inductor has very low value of inductance. They are suitable for Radio Frequency (RF) applications
Iron-Core Inductor: This inductor is made of coils of wire wound on solid iron-core. The iron core is laminated to avoid eddy current loss. A laminated core consists of thin iron laminations pressed together, but insulated from each other. The iron-core inductors are very suitable for Audio Frequency (AF) applications.
Page 7
Ferrite-Core Inductor: This inductor is made of coils of wire wound on a ferrite-core. A ferrite is a magnetic material consisting of fine particles of iron, cobalt or nickel embedded in a insulator binder. Ferrite core has very low eddy current loss, therefore they are mainly used for high frequency applications.
CAPACITORS: The Capacitor are sometimes referred as a Condenser is an passive device, and one which stores energy in the form of an electrostatic field which produces a potential across its plates. When a voltage is applied to these plates, a current flows charging up the plates with electrons giving one plate a positive charge and the other plate an equal and opposite negative charge. This flow of electrons to the plates is known as the Charging Current and continues to flow until the voltage across the plates (and hence the capacitor) is equal to the applied voltage Vc. At this point the capacitor is said to be fully charged and this is illustrated below.

The diode is a device formed from a junction of n-type and p-type semiconductor material. The lead connected to the p-type material is called the anode and the lead connected to the n-type material is the cathode. In general, the cathode of a diode is marked by a solid line on the diode.
The general from of the current - voltage c/cs of a diode is shown in Figure (l). A current flow in the forward direction is very large compared with that in the reverse direction and such a device is very useful as a rectifier. The diode is in the forward direction when an external battery is connected with Positive terminal to the (p) region and negative terminal to the region (n). The reverse current through the diode varies greatly with temperature and with the semiconductor materiel used
The primary function of the diode is the rectification. When it is forward biased (the higher potential is connected to the anode lead), it will pass current. When it is reverse biased (the higher potential is connected to the cathode lead), the current is blocked. The current I in the forward direction can be expressed in the following exponential relationship

The characteristic curves of an ideal diode and a real diode are seen in Figure 1-2.

Experiment No.03 Aim: To study electronic measurement instrument . Apparatus: CRO ,probes, power supply etc. Theory: The CRO is very useful & versatile lab instrument used for display management and analysis of waveforms and other phenomenons in electrical & electronics circuit. These are very fast x-y plotters displays input signal Vs time. The stylus of this plotter is an luminous spot which moves over the display area in response to input voltage. The heart of oscilloscope is cathode ray tube(CRT). The rest of instrument consists of circuitry necessary to operate the CRT . Cathode Ray tube(CRT): The CRO consists of CRT which is heart of CRO and some additional circuit to operate CRT. Fig 14.20) shows the schematic diagram of CRO along with its control circuitry. A CRT essentially consists of three basic components: Electron gun: This produces a sharply focused beam of electrons, accelerated to a very high velocity. The deflection system: this system deflects the electrons, both in the horizontal and vertical planes electro statically in accordance with waveform to be displayed. The Fluorescent screen: on this screen the beam of electrons impinges to produce a spot of visible light. These 3 essential components of a CRT are put inside a highly evacuated, funnel shaped glass envelop. The large end of this tube is coated on the inside with a phosphor material. This material fluoresces when high velocity electron strikes it, converting the energy of the electrons into visible light. Hence the names Fluorescent screen.
When the electron beam strikes the screen, besides giving out visible light, secondary emission electrons are also released. These electrons are collected by the conductive coating

Introduction: Nearly all components used in modern computer systems are solderless plug-in modules. Computer service and support technicians wont have much use for a soldering iron these days. However, soldering remains to be a difficult to master skill and a technician does need to know how to recognize good soldering from bad. From splicing wires to repairing joints on solder lugs, there are some situations where nothing but a reliable solder connection will do. Soldering is not new skill either its been around for hundreds of years. Whats different now is that soldering is being applied to sophisticated electronic circuits rather than the metalwork, tubing, and jewellery of yesteryear. Soldering techniques have also changed to meet the requirements of the ever-shrinking form factors used in emerging technologies. If youre new to soldering, this lesson will teach you some valuable techniques. Even if youve soldered before, this lesson will help you polish your skills making you an even better technician. Its important that you read through this section before you do the exercises. You should also refer to this information as you do the exercises if you have any questions. Be sure to study the material very carefully including any reference to safety. Soldering irons can cause serious burns if handled incorrectly.
Page 22
Solder is an alloy of two different elements: tin and lead. From the earliest times, solder was made from these metals because they both melt at relatively low temperatures and maintain good physical strength. In soldering, only the solder becomes a liquid. It flows over a surface that remains a solid. When the solder cools, it is joined to that surface. Liquid solder actually mixes with the molecules of a metal surface and imbeds itself into every pore. This mixing is called WETTING. Since no surface is truly smooth, there are always plenty of pores. This gives soldered connections a great amount of physical strength. The INTERFACE area of wetting is where solder has intermixed with molecules of both the wire and the surface. It is this low resistance interface that makes solder a good electrical connection.
When the soldering tip touches the connection, the connection becomes a HEAT SINK which draws heat away from the iron. The amount of heat absorbed depends on the: 1. Size of the surface to be soldered. 2. Surface area touched by the iron. 3. Condition of the soldering iron tip. 4. Amount of pressure applied. The size of iron you need depends on the size of the object you want to solder. This is because the bigger the soldered connection, the more heat it will soak up and the more it

Heres a common soldering iron. This tool uses AC line voltage to produce heat in a coil, which is shielded within the housing. From there, heat is drawn into the tip, the part of the iron that contacts the connection. The heat at the tip should be at least 100 F above the melting point of solder.
The tip of an iron is usually a copper rod which conducts heat efficiently. This rod is often ironclad and sometimes has a gold, silver, or nickel-plating to prolong tip life and increase
soldering iron tips are usually removable and they should be replaced when they become pitted or the plating wears away. There are many shapes and sizes available. So, if you will be doing specialized soldering, you may want an iron with an interchangeable tip.
Manipulating both the soldering iron and the vacuum bulb at the same time can be quite a feat. So, the high-vacuum SPRING LOADED PLUNGER has been developed. With this convenient tool, you simply compress the spring plunger. When the solder melts, you press a button, which releases the spring. This creates a powerful vacuum and the solder is sucked into the cylinder. Usually, all the solder is removed in one operation.
Soldering guns and irons are even hotter than the solder. If you handle equipment carelessly, you may injure yourself or someone else. So, to protect your vision, wear safety glasses. And always treat solder and soldering tools with respect. With a bit of caution and practice, you can make soldering a safe and very useful skill. Review: Soldering is the process of bonding together two or more metals by heating them, melting a tinlead alloy called solder onto them, and letting it harden. The basic purpose of soldering, in electronics, is to provide a good electrical connection that is strong physically. Molecules actually mix with the molecules of the metals being joined, at their surfaces. This surfacearea mixing of the two metals is called wetting. A solder alloy with a 60-40 tin-lead mixture is used most commonly for electronic work because it has a very low melting point and it solidifies quickly. But before solder will adhere to a metal, the oxide layer must be removed from the metals surface by a chemical called flux. For electronic and electrical work, most of the solder has this flux built right into it. And of the several types available, only rosin-core solder can be used. Use 60-40, rosin-core solder for all your electronic and electrical soldering. The type of soldering iron you use depends on your application. To solder a large wire to a large metal terminal, for example, you would need a large soldering iron. To solder small electronic components to a circuit board, you should use a pencil iron. Soldering irons are rated in terms of wattage, an electrical characteristic that tells how much power they will consume. Usually, a 25-35 watt pencil iron is a perfect size for circuit boards, and it will handle most other jobs very well too. A soldering gun can be another useful soldering tool, but you have to know its advantages and its limitations. Its principal advantage is its off-on, instant-heat feature. Its biggest limitation is that its high heat could destroy small components. To transfer heat effectively from the soldering iron to a wire or connection, always keep the tip clean and tin it at regular intervals. If you let any dirt or burned flux collect on it, this will greatly reduce the amount of heat that it can transfer to the connection. To make

Conclusion :
When soldering Its really all about transferring heat. Therere a few things you have to pay close attention to make sure theres a good transfer of heat during soldering. First There has to be a good physical connection between the things youre trying to solder together. A good physical connection allows both the wire and terminal to reach high temperatures at the same time. Heat up both the wire and the terminal by touching them both at the same time. Use about the same amount of pressure as if you were writing with a pencil. Applying solder a second or two after youve applied heat will allow the solder to flow through the joint. The joint should look smooth and shiny and contain only enough solder to do the job. There should be only a small space between the end of the insulation and the terminal about the diameter of the wire itself.

Introduction: .
The basic logic gates are the building blocks of more complex logic circuits. These logic gates perform the basic Boolean functions, such as AND, OR, NAND, NOR, Inversion, Exclusive-OR, Exclusive-NOR. Fig. below shows the circuit symbol, Boolean function, andtruth. It is seen from the Fig that each gate has one or two binary inputs, A and B, and one binary output, C. The small circle on the output of the circuit symbols designates the logic complement. The AND, OR, NAND, and NOR gates can be extended to have more than two inputs. A gate can be extended to have multiple inputs if the binary operation it represents is commutative and associative.
AND GATE:
A basic AND gate consists of two inputs and an output. If the two inputs are A and B, the output (often called Q) is on only if both A and B are also on. The relationship between the input signals and the output signals is often summarized in a truth table, which is a tabulation of all possible inputs and the resulting outputs. For the AND gate, there are four possible combinations of input states: A=0, B=0; A=0, B=1; A=1, B=0; and A=1, B=1. In the following truth table.

Introduction: A device that prints text or illustration on paper. There are many different types of printers, in terms of the technology utilize. The purpose of a printer is to product the result of prosing on sheets of paper. You can print out information that is in the see on your computer onto paper. There are different kinds of printer depending on their speed and print quality. The job of a printer is to put on a paper what you monitor. All school and colleges, whether they have client-server network, peer to peer network stand alone PCs require printing facility for the pupils, teachers and staff. The lack of knowledge and information available can lead to the wrong type of printer being purchased. Not only does this result in underperformance, in that it will not perform all the functions required, but it can also result in higher running and maintenance costs. Selecting and maintaining a suitable printer for a school is harder than it looks.
Printer types:
There are many types of printers but they fall into one of the two categories. 1. impact printer 2. non-impact printer Impact printers include all printers that work by striking an ink ribbon. Daisy wheel dot matrix and line printers are impact printers are impact printers. Non impact printers include laser printers and ink jet printers. The important difference between impact and non impact printer is that impact printers are much noisier. 1. impact printer Impact printers use a print head containing a number a number of metal pins, which strike an inked ribbon placed between the print head and the paper.Some print heads have only 9 pins to make the dots to build up a character; some have 24 pins which produced a better resolution.With this type of printer something strikes paper and ribbon together to form a character, like a typewriter.
Advantage:
1. Less expensive 2. Can make multiple copies with multipart paper.
Page 33
Disadvantages:
1. Noisy! 2. Print quality lower in some types. 3. Poor graphics or none at all. Impact printers can be classified in two categories: 1. Line printer 2. Serial printer Line printers are much faster costlier device compared to serial printer.Thus serial printers are generally used with small microcomputers and line printers are used with larger system.
1. Line printer
Modern line printer include a microprocessor for the purpose of control. The number of lines measures the speed of line printer. It can print in a minute (line per minute [1 pm] ) line printers in the range of 300 to1400 Lpm are very common.
2. Serial printer
The printer head of a serial printer can print only one character at a time. Serial printer can print a maximum of 74 t o132 character in a line. The print head of a serial printer is generally capable of moving left to right as well as right to left .So that bidirectional printing is possible Two common varieties of serial printers, namely dot- matrix and daisy wheel printers.
1. Thermal printer
Thermal printer paper tends to darken over time due to exposure to sunlight and heat. The standard of print produce is poor. Thermal printers are widely used in battery-powered equipment such as portable calculators. Characters are formed by heated elements being placed in contact with special heat sensitive paper forming darkened dots when the elements reach a critical temperature. Thermal printer used in fax machine.
Disadvantage:
Relatively slow and requiring special paper.

2. Laser printer
Laser printers use a laser beam and dry powdered ink to produce fine dot matrix pattern. This method of printing can generate about 4 pages of a4 paper per minute. The standard of print is very good and laser printers can also produce very good quality printed graphics image. A photoconductive drum is initially charged and then a high intensity laser beam is used to discharge selected areas on the drum. These discharged areas correspond to whiter areas of the printed document. Toner is attracted to parts of the drum with a high charge. The drum rotates and transfers the toner to the paper; which has an even greater electrical charge. Finally a heater fixes the toner onto the paper.
Page 36
6. Photo printer
photo printers are designed specifically for printing photos and can pit photos of a quality approaching that of a professional photofinisher. They generally use ink-jet technology and are priced similarly to high-end ink-jet models. When buying such a printer, look for capabilities like good overall colour reproduction. Contrast ability to render detail. Consistency across the page, image longevity and most important no smudging. The best photo printers use six colours instead of the usual four, thus making it easier to mix a colour. However the cost per page will also be higher for such printers. Conclusion: In this experiment we studied different types of printers.

Generally, the term is used to describe a collection of devices that function together as a system. It performs the following three operations in sequence. 1. It receives data & instructions from the input device. 2. Processes the data as per instructions. 3. Provides the result (output) in a desired form. Data : It is the collection of raw facts, figures & symbols. Ex : Names of students and their marks in different subjects listed in random order. Information : It is the data that is processed & presented in an organized manner. Ex : When the names of students are arranged in alphabetical order, total and average marks are calculated & presented in a tabular form, it is information. Program : Set of instructions that enables a computer to perform a given task. Advantages of computers :
1. High speed : Computers have the ability to perform routine tasks at a greater speed than
human beings. They can perform millions of calculations in seconds. 2. Accuracy : Computers are used to perform tasks in a way that ensures accuracy.
3. Storage : Computers can store large amount of information. Any item of data or any
instruction stored in the memory can be retrieved by the computer at lightning speeds. 4. Automation : Computers can be instructed to perform complex tasks automatically ( which increases the productivity). 5. Diligence : Computers can perform the same task repeatedly & with the same accuracy without getting tired. 6. Versatility : Computers are flexible to perform both simple and complex tasks. 7. Cost effectiveness : Computers reduce the amount of paper work and human effort, thereby reducing costs. Limitations of computers : 1.

The various functions of these units can be summarized as: Unit Function 1.Input device computer in a coded form : Reads information from input media and enters to the
2.CPU (a) Memory unit : Stores program and data (b) Arithmetic Logic unit : Performs arithmetic and logical functions (c) Control Unit : Interprets program instructions and controls the input and output devices 3. Output device : decodes information and presents it to the user Central Processing Unit: It is the part of the computer that carries out the instructions of a computer program. It is the unit that reads and executes program instructions. Hence it is known as the brain of the computer. The CPU consists of storage or memory unit, Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) and control unit. (a). Memory Unit: It is also known as the primary storage or main memory. It stores data, program instructions, internal results and final output temporarily before it is sent to an appropriate output device. It consists of thousands of cells called storage locations. These cells activate with off on or binary digits(0,1) mechanism. Thus a character either a letter or numerical digit is stored as a string of (0,1) Binary digits ( BITS). These bits are used to store instructions and data by their combinations. (b) Arithmetic and Logical Unit(ALU): It is the unit where all Arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction etc.) and logical functions such as true or false, male or female are performed. Once data are fed into the main memory from input devices, they are held and transferred as needed to ALU where processing takes place. No process occurs in primary storage. (c).Control Unit : It acts as a central nervous system and ensures that the information is stored correctly and the program instructions are followed in proper sequence as well as the data are selected from the memory as necessary. It also coordinates all the input and output devices of a system .
