- Define a Constant voltage source.
- State Maximum Power transfer theorem.
- What is Zero signal collector current? What is its significance?
- Define Class A Power amplifier. What is its maximum efficiency?
- Define CMRR of a differential amplifier. How can it act as a figure of merit of a difference amplifier?

- What input conditions of a JK flip flop makes it toggle?
- What is the difference between a Decoder & a Multiplexer?
- How many flip flops are required to store a decimal no.100110 in a binary register.
- Mention any two differences between ROM & RAM.
PART B
Answer ANY FOUR questions: (4 x 7.5 = 30 marks)
- A constant dc voltage of 10 volts is connected in series with resistances 4Ω & 3Ω. Another load resistance RL is connected across the 3Ω resistance. Use Norton’s theorem to determine the current through RL in the circuit.
- What is the need for biasing the transistor? Explain the Fixed Bias method and the disadvantages faced in this method of biasing.
- Draw the circuit of i) Summing & ii) Difference Amplifier using Op-Amp and obtain an expression for their output.
- Draw the logic circuit of a D- Flip Flop and explain its working. How it can be modified to function as a T flip flop?
- Explain with the circuit the working of a decade counter using JK – flip flops.
PART C
Answer ANY FOUR questions: (4 x 12.5 = 50 marks)
- Describe the analysis of a transistor amplifier in CE mode using ‘h’ parameter and obtain the expression for Ai, AV and Z
- Draw Phase Shift oscillator circuit using Transistor and explain its working.
- Explain the mechanism of current conduction in a SCR. Explain the action of SCR as a half wave rectifier.
- Using K-map simplify the Boolean function:
F(A,B,C,D) = ∑(0,2,4,5,6,10,12,14). Implement the simplified expression using NAND gates only.
- Draw a 4-Bit RING counter using JK flip flops and describe the sequence of operations. What is the modulus of the counter?
