5 Nonlinear components i=φ i {u}=f i (u) u=φ u {i}=f u (i) Question: How can it be implemented? Answer: Semiconductive devices TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

6 Diode: Si crystal and doping The electrical characteristics of silicon and germanium are improved by adding materials in a process called doping. There are just two types of doped semiconductor materials: n-type materials contain an excess of conduction band electrons. (eg: Phosphor) p-type materials contain an excess of valence band holes.(eg.: Boron) TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

7 Diode: p-n junction One end of a silicon crystal can be doped as a p-type material and the other end as an n-type material. The result is a p-n junction TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

8 Diode production: planar structure SiO 2 200μm Materials commonly used in the development of semiconductor devices: Silicon (Si) Germanium (Ge) Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) p n Next slides Metal bearing TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

9 Diode: p-n junction (cont ) The excess conduction-band electrons onthen-typesideareattractedtothe valence-band holes on the p-type side. The electrons in the n-type material migrate across the junction to the p- type material (electron flow). The electron migration results in a negative charge on the p-type side of the junction and a positive charge on the n-type side of the junction. The result is the formation of a depletion region around the junction TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

10 Diode: p-n junction (cont ) External voltage is applied, a diode has three operating conditions: No bias: u D =0V i D =0A Reverse bias: external voltage across the p-n junction in the opposite polarity of the p- and n-type materials. u D <0V i D =0A Forward bias: external voltage across the p-n junction in the same polarity as the p- and n-type materials. u D >0V i D >0A TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

11 Actuel diode characterestics UT i =Φ i {} u = I e u 0 1 i 0 {} ln I 1 u = Φ u i = UT e + U T kt q B = I 0 is the reverse bias saturation current, U T is the thermal voltage. 26mV TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

12 Zener range (or breakdown range) The Zener region is in the diode s reverse-bias region. At some point the reverse bias voltage is so large the diode breaks down and the reverse current increases dramatically. The maximum reverse voltage that won t take a diode into the zener region is called the peak inverse voltage or peak reverse voltage. The voltage that causes a diode to enter the zener region of operation is called the zener voltage (u Z ) TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

13 Basic linear elements: Nonlinear resistive networks (circuits) Resistor, R, [Ω](Ohms) Nonlinear resistor (eg. diodes) Thevenin equivalent TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

14 Nonlinear resistive circuits (or networks) The system function: Nonlinear equation Question: How can it be solved? KVL and KVC: u + u + u = i R s D R 0 i = D 0 Charateristics of elements: u R = Ri R ud UT id = i0 e 1. ud UT us + Ri0 e 1 + ud = TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

15 Load-line analysis (graphical method) The load line plots all possible combinations of diode current (i D ) and voltage (u D ) for a given circuit. The maximum i D equals u s /R, and the maximum u D equals u s. The point where the load line and the characteristic curve intersect is the Q- point (equlibrium, or operation point set by the linear networks), which identifies i D and u D for a particular diode in a given circuit TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

18 Semiconductors react differently to DC and AC currents. There are two types of resistance: DC (static) resistance AC (dynamic) resistance Resistance levels: static resistance For a specific applied DC voltage u D, the diode has a specific current i D, and a specific resistance R D TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

19 Semiconductors react differently to DC and AC currents. There are two types of resistance: DC (static) resistance AC (dynamic) resistance: D In the forward bias region: r r D In the reverse bias region: r = D Resistance levels: dynamic resistance = du di D D D u, i Q Q 26mV = + R i loss TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

20 Types of diodes: Zener diode Zener diode Light-emitting diode Diode arrays Schottky diode Varactor diode Power diodes Tunnel diode Photodiode Photoconductive cells IR emitters Liquid crystal displays Solar cells Thermistors A Zener is a diode operated in reverse bias at the Zener voltage (u Z ). Common Zener voltages are between 1.8 V and 200 V TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

21 Types of diodes: LED Zener diode Light-emitting diode Diode arrays Schottky diode Varactor diode Power diodes Tunnel diode Photodiode Photoconductive cells IR emitters Liquid crystal displays Solar cells Thermistors An LED emits photons when it is forward biased.these can be in the infrared or visible spectrum. The forward bias voltage is usually in the range of 2 V to 3 V. Applications: Instrumentation circuits as a sensor Alarmsystemsensor Detection of objects on a conveyor belt TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

22 Types of diodes: Schottky diode Zener diode Light-emitting diode Diode arrays Schottky diode Varactor diode Power diodes Tunnel diode Photodiode Photoconductive cells IR emitters Liquid crystal displays Solar cells Thermistors Characteristics: Lower forward voltage drop ( V) Higher forward current (up to 75A) Significantly lower voltage drop Higher reverse current Faster switching rate Applications High frequency switching applications Low-voltage high-current applications AC-to-DC converters Communication equipment Instrumentation circuits TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

23 Types of diodes: Tunnel diode Zener diode Light-emitting diode Diode arrays Schottky diode Varactor diode Power diodes Tunnel diode Photodiode Photoconductive cells IR emitters Liquid crystal displays Solar cells Thermistors The characteristics of the tunnel diode indicate the negative resistance region. Note that this is only a small region of the characteristic curve. If the forward bias voltage is in the negative resistance region then the diode can be used as an oscillator. Applications: Oscillators Switching networks Pulse generators TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

24 Application of regular diodes: rectification The diode only conducts when it is forward biased, therefore only half of the AC cycle passes through the diode to the output. The DC output voltage is 0.318U p,whereu p is the peak AC voltage TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

25 Application of simple diodes: rectification (cont ) Four diodes are connected in a bridge configuration. U DC = 0.636U p TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

26 There are two types of transistors: pnp npn The terminals are labeled: E - Emitter B-Base C - Collector Bipolar transistor construction TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

27 Bipolar transistor operation With the external sources, V EE (or U EE )andv CC (or U CC ), connected as shown: The emitter-base junction is forward biased The base-collector junction is reverse biased TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

28 Bipolar transistor configuration: common-base The base is common to both input (emitter base) and output (collector base) of the transistor. Operation mode B-E junction B-C junction Cutoff Close (V BE <0) Close(V CB >0) Normal active Open(V BE >0) Close Inverse active Close Open(V CB <0) Saturation Open Open I E = I C +I B I C = AI E I I C A = = A B 1 (Kirchhoff current law) (transitor equation) B TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

31 Common-emitter characteristics Base Characteristics Collector Characteristics TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

32 Bipolar transistor Modeling A model is an equivalent circuit that represents the AC characteristics of the transistor. A model uses circuit elements that approximate the behavior of the transistor. There are two models commonly used in small signal AC analysis of a transistor: r e model: the bipolar transistor is basically current-controlled device; therefore the r e model uses a diode and a current source to duplicate the behavior of the transistor. Hybrid equivalent model ( simplified equivalent model) TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

33 Simplified equivalent model: Ideal transistor = current controlled current sources i B U = r BE D i C = β i B TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

34 Similarities: Amplifiers Switching devices Field Effect Transistor (FET) Impedance matching circuits Differences: FETs are voltage controlled devices. Bipolar transistors are current controlled devices. FETs have a higher input impedance. Bipolar transistors have higher gains. FETs are less sensitive to temperature variations and are more easily integrated on ICs. FETs are generally more static sensitive than Bipolar transistors TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

35 FET types JFET: Junction FET MOSFET: Metal Oxide Semiconductor FET D-MOSFET: Depletion MOSFET E-MOSFET: Enhancement MOSFET There are three terminals: Drain (D) and Source (S) are connected to the n-channel Gate (G) is connected to the p- type material TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

36 JFET operating characterictics There are three basic operating conditions for a JFET: V GS = 0, V DS increasing to some positive value Pinch Off V GS < 0, V DS at some positive value Voltage-controlled resistor: At the pinch-off point any further increase in U GS does not produce any increase in I D. V GS at pinch-off is denoted as V poff. I D is at saturation or maximum. It is referred to as I DSS TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

37 JFET transfer characteristics In a JFET, the relationship of V GS (output) is a little more complicated: I (input) and I D D = I V DSS 1 V GS P TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

38 FET types JFET: Junction FET MOSFET: Metal Oxide Semiconductor FET D-MOSFET: Depletion MOSFET E-MOSFET: Enhancement MOSFET TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

39 MOSFET operating characterictics A depletion-type MOSFET can operate in two modes: Depletion mode: When V GS = 0 V, I D = I DSS When V GS < 0 V, I D < I DSS The formula used to plot the transfer curve still applies: I D = IDSS 1 V V GS Poff 2 Enhancement mode: These devices are off at zero gate source voltage U GS, and can be turned on by pulling the gate voltage in the direction of the drain voltage TÁMOP /2/A/KMR

40 Summary Diodes are two-terminal devices that conduct current easily in one direction, but not in the other. The ideal diode model is a short circuit for forward currents and an open circuit for reverse voltages. Zener diodes are intended to operate in the breakdown region. Transistors are three-terminal devices. Circuits containing a nonlinear device can be analyzed using a graphical technique called a load-line analysis. The analysis of nonlinear electronic circuits is often accomplished in two steps: First, the dc operating point is determined, and a linear small-signal equivalent circuit is found; second, the equivalent circuit is analyzed.
