spørsmålet svaret
What is the significance of the band gap in semiconductors?
begynn å lære
It defines the energy required to move electrons from the valence band to the conduction band, enabling conductivity.
What is the Early effect in BJTs?
begynn å lære
A variation in collector current due to changes in collector-base voltage, resulting in output conductance.
What does the Miller effect refer to?
begynn å lære
The apparent increase in input capacitance due to amplification of feedback capacitance in inverting amplifiers.
What is channel-length modulation in MOSFETs?
begynn å lære
A decrease in effective channel length with increased drain voltage, leading to increased drain current.
What is transconductance (gm) in a MOSFET?
begynn å lære
It is the rate of change of drain current with respect to gate-source voltage, gm = dId/dVgs.
What is a differential pair used for?
begynn å lære
To amplify the difference between two input signals while rejecting common-mode signals.
What is the gain-bandwidth product of an op-amp?
begynn å lære
It is the frequency at which the open-loop gain drops to unity; a key performance parameter.
What is a Bode plot?
begynn å lære
A graph representing the gain and phase of a system as a function of frequency, used for stability and frequency response analysis.
What is the Nyquist criterion for stability?
begynn å lære
A graphical condition that ensures closed-loop stability by avoiding encirclements of the −1 point in the Nyquist plot.
What is a pole in a transfer function?
begynn å lære
A value of s where the system's response becomes infinite, related to natural frequencies and stability.
What is a zero in a transfer function?
begynn å lære
A frequency at which the system's output is zero despite input; used to shape response.
What is slew rate limiting in op-amps?
begynn å lære
A non-linear phenomenon where the output cannot change faster than a maximum rate, causing distortion.
What does negative feedback achieve in amplifiers?
begynn å lære
It increases linearity, reduces gain, enhances bandwidth, and improves stability.
What is a phase margin?
begynn å lære
The difference between the phase shift and -180° at the unity gain frequency; indicates stability.
What is thermal runaway in BJTs?
begynn å lære
A positive feedback condition where increased temperature leads to increased current and further heating, potentially destroying the transistor.
What is a hysteresis loop in a Schmitt trigger?
begynn å lære
A voltage range where input changes don't affect output, used to eliminate noise-induced switching.
What is a Class AB amplifier's advantage over Class B?
begynn å lære
It combines high efficiency with minimal crossover distortion.
What is a phase-locked loop (PLL)?
begynn å lære
A feedback system that locks the phase of an output signal to a reference, used in frequency synthesis and clock recovery.
What is the Barkhausen criterion?
begynn å lære
A condition for oscillation stating that the loop gain must be unity and the total phase shift must be 0 or 360°.
What is parasitic capacitance?
begynn å lære
Unintended capacitance that occurs between parts of an electronic component or circuit due to proximity and layout.
