Note:
1. A total of not less than 12 experiments must be carried out during the semester. (Where ever
possible, more than 1 lab experiment should be carried out in one lab session of 3 periods per
week.)
2. The experiments should be performed on bread board using discrete components.
3. There should not be more than 2 students per batch while performing any of the lab experiment.
1. Sign in the log register as soon as you enter the lab and strictly observe your lab timings.

you do not understand the instructions, the handouts and the procedures, ask the
instructor or teacher.
3. Never work alone! You should be accompanied by your laboratory partner and / or the
instructors / teaching assistants all the time.
4. It is mandatory to come to lab in a formal dress and wear your ID cards.
5. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery in the lab. Rings and necklaces are usual
excellent conductors of electricity.
6. Mobile phones should be switched off in the lab. Keep bags in the bag rack.
7. Keep the labs clean at all times, no food and drinks allowed inside the lab.

Theory:
An amplifier is an electronic circuit that can increase the strength of a weak input signal without
distorting its shape. A BJT can be used as an amplifier in the active region. The factor by which
the input signal gets multiplied after passing through the amplifier circuit is called the gain of the
amplifier. It is given by the ratio of the output and input signals.
A self bias circuit is used in the amplifier circuit because it provides highest Q-point stability
among all the biasing circuits ie, its stability factor is the least of all. A plot of the gain of the
amplifier and frequency is called the frequency response curve. The frequencies at which the
gain of the amplifier is 1/√2 times the maximum value of gain are called the cutoff frequencies
or 3 dB frequencies. The difference of these cutoff frequencies is called the bandwidth of the
amplifier.
Bandwidth = fH - fL
Where fL is called the lower cutoff frequency and fH is called the higher cutoff frequency.

An amplifier is an electronic circuit that can increase the strength of a weak input signal without

This amplifier is commonly used in buffering applications where the demand is for higher input
impedance and gain is not of prime importance.

Cascading in amplifiers is a process of connecting the output of one amplifier to the input of the
next and so on so forth. Cascading is used to increase the gain of the amplifier, but due to

the bandwidth of a multistage amplifier is always smaller than the bandwidth of individual
stages.

APPENDIX
LABORATORY COURSE ASSESSMENT GUIDELINES
i. The number of experiments in each laboratory course shall be as per the curriculum in the
scheme of instructions provided by OU. Mostly the number of experiments is 10 in each
laboratory course under semester scheme and 18 under year wise scheme.
ii. The students will maintain a separate note book for observations in each laboratory
course.
iii. In each session the students will conduct the allotted experiment and enter the data in the
observation table.
iv. The students will then complete the calculations and obtain the results. The course
coordinator will certify the result in the same session.
v. The students will submit the record in the next class. The evaluation will be continuous
and not cycle-wise or at semester end.
vi. The internal marks of 25 are awarded in the following manner:
a. Laboratory record - Maximum Marks 15
b. Test and Viva Voce - Maximum Marks 10
vii. Laboratory Record: Each experimental record is evaluated for a score of 50. The rubric
parameters are as follows:
a. Write up format - Maximum Score 15
b. Experimentation Observations & Calculations - Maximum Score 20
c. Results and Graphs - Maximum Score 10
d. Discussion of results - Maximum Score 5
While (a), (c) and (d) are assessed at the time of record submission, (b) is assessed during the
session based on the observations and calculations. Hence if a student is absent for an experiment
but completes it in another session and subsequently submits the record, it shall be evaluated for
a score of 30 and not 50.
viii. The experiment evaluation rubric is therefore as follows:
ix. The first page of the record will contain the following title sheet:
10
11
12
x. The 15 marks of laboratory record will be scaled down from the TOTAL of the
assessment sheet.
xi. The test and viva voce will be scored for 10 marks as follows:
Internal Test - 6 marks
Viva Voce / Quiz - 4 marks
xii. Each laboratory course shall have 5 course outcomes.
On successful completion of the course, the student will acquire the ability to:
1. Conduct experiments, take measurements and analyze the data through hands-on
experience in order to demonstrate understanding of the theoretical concepts of
_______________________, while working in small groups.
3. Employ graphics packages for drawing of graphs and use computational software for
statistical analysis of data.
4. Compare the experimental results with those introduced in lecture, draw relevant
conclusions and substantiate them satisfactorily.
xiii. The Course coordinators would prepare the assessment matrix in accordance with the
guidelines provided above for the five course outcomes. The scores to be entered against
each of the course outcome would be the sum of the following as obtained from the
assessment sheet in the record:
