  2. Objectives: • Measure dynamic impedance of a forward-biased diode & Zener diode • Learn about small-signal techniques • Learn about interference reduction through the use of proper grounding and twisted-pair techniques

  3. Background: What is dynamic impedance ? V I resistance R= dV d I rd = dynamic resistance

  11. Input Signal Too Small iD ID VD vD noise

  12. noise Measurement of rd looks simple. The problem is that vd in the millivolt range for forward bias. Thus, noise and stray pickup may cause trouble if you are not careful.

  13. ! Oscilloscope R id A B Stray magnetic flux Questions: Where does come from ? Example: How large is it ?

  14. Questions: Where does come from ? Answer: 1. Current iac in power lines on bench & drops from ceiling 2. fluorescent lights 3. AC machines r

  15. Question: How large is ? I r r

  16. Oscilloscope R 2 Area=1 m A B 1 meter Assume our experiment is about 2 meters from the power lines: r = 2 m 100 amp. peak 60 HZ Peak value is 3.77 mV and this may be comparable to signal amplitudes being measured!

  17. + ~ - Must be concerned about in all parts of circuit.

  18. OSC. How is this problem avoided? remember We have control over A. We can‘t do much about r or I. So, we must minimize A. Step 1: Make the area small Step 2: Twist wires together OSC.

  19. Twisting wires does two things, 1- Holds wires together 2- voltages induced in adjacent sections cancel V1 V2 1 2 V1~ -V2 So induced signals cancel

  20. Keep track of grounded leads Oscilloscope R A B

  21. Single Point Grounding Use Only One Ground Connection Such As CRO ground

  22. Can only one ground connection be realized? e. g. CRO ground. Not with BNC’s because the each outer connector is another ground.

  23. Capacitive Coupling1. Assume 1 pF between your circuit and 120 VAC power lines.2. 60-Hz current I = jCV where  = 377 rad/s at f = 60 Hz, C = 1 pF, and V = 120 VAC(rms)

  24. 3. The voltage produced by I = ZxI where Z is the impedance I flows through. 4. Example: CRO Z = 1 Meg VCRO = 377x1pFx120Vx1Meg = 45 mV(rms) = 130 mVpp

  25. Procedures: • I- Measure dynamic resistance of a Zener diode in the forward bias region. • II- Simulation for Part I. • (In Bell 242) • III- Measure dynamic resistance in the Zener breakdown region.

  26. Components: • Zener Diode 1N4742-12VDC-0.5 W • 2 Heathkit Resistance Substitution Boxes • 1-kohm & 10 kohm Resistors • Decade Capacitor Box

  27. CH. 1 CH. 2 C R1 R2 A ID id + ~ 0-20V dc circuit ac circuit - vD, iD 1- Dynamic Resistance in Forward Region

  28. ~10 VDC A R1 + ~10.4V to ~10.8V ID ~ ~0.4 to 0.8V - dc circuit The values of R1 and the voltage source are selected to control the dc bias current ID. Suppose we want ID = 10 mA. Make the dc voltage across R1 = ~10 VDC. Assume VD = 0.7 V. V=10.7 volts & ID =10 mA R1=1000 Ohms

  29. R2 is selected so that ac current peak is ~10% of dc current. R1=1000 Ohms R2=10,000 R1 C R2 A id + ~ ~10.7V ac circuit - ~20Vpp 1 kHz By setting the dc power supply voltage to ~10.7 VDC & the FG amplitude to ~20 Vpp and R2 to ~10R1, the ac current peak is ~10% of dc current. I. E. ID =10 mA & id =1 mA . To obtain other values of ID & id change both R1 & R2 with R2/R1 = ~10. The dc & ac voltage levels in the circuit change very little as R1 & R2 are changed to change the currents ID & id .

  30. R2 is selected so that ac current peak is ~10% of dc current. R1=1000 Ohms R2=10,000 C R2 A id + ~ ~10.7V ac circuit - ~20Vpp 1 kHz C blocks dc current in the ac circuit & C should be large enough so that capacitance reactance is small compared with R2 Note that R1 must be >> diode dynamic resistance so that most of the ac current goes through the diode & not the dc circuit

  31. Selection of R2 • The values of R2 and the function generator voltage amplitude Vgen should be chosen to make the ac current amplitude id 10% to 20 % of ID. The corresponding diode peak ac voltage Vd will be 10% V to 20 % of nVT where VT = 25 mV at T = 290 K. (~20 C). Thus Vd will be 2.5 to 5 mV for n = 1 and the peak-to-peak diode ac voltage will be 5 to 10 mV.

  39. CH. 1 CH. 2 C R1 R2 A ID id + ~ 0-20V dc circuit ac circuit - vD, iD 3- Dynamic Resistance of Zener in the Breakdown Region Choose values of dc bias current so that the dc power dissipation in the diode is less than 1/2 of its max rated power dissipation (1/2 Watt).

  40. Assume Zener Diode Breakdown Voltage VZ = 12V The values of R1 and the dc voltage source are selected to control the dc bias current ID. Suppose we want ID = 10 mA. Make the dc voltage across R1 = ~5 VDC. Then R1 = ~5 VDC/10mA = 0.5 k. Use the closest value which is 470 . The FG peak voltage is set at 10 V. The value of R2 is selected so that the peak ac current = 10% of the dc current = 0.1 X 10 mA. Thus R2 = ~10V/1mA = 10 k.
