  1. Describe the construction and operating principle of JFET. State the advantage of JFET.  A JFET has a drain current of 5 mA . If  IDSS = 10 mA and VGS(OFF) = -6V, calculate the value of VGS and pinch off voltage VP.
  2. Explain the need of transistor biasing circuit and state its essential requirements. Obtain the      expression for the stability factor S for CE configuration.
  3. Draw an ac equivalent circuit of a single stage common emitter transistor amplifier and expression      for the voltage gain and power gain . An amplifier has an open circuit gain of 1000, an output resistance of 15Ω  and an input resistance of 7 KΩ  . It is supplied from a signal source of e.m.f 10 mV and internal resistance 3 KΩ . The amplifier feeds a load of 35Ω. Calculate the output voltage and power gain.
Q5:- Attempt any four parts of the following :
2*10=20
  1.  What do you understand by an ideal operational amplifier ? Describe its characteristics and discuss lts limitations.In an op-amplifier ,the amplifier gain is 10000. The input series resistance feedback resistance are 100 KΩ and 500 KΩ respectively. If the input voltage is 1.0V, calculate output voltage. 
  2. Describe NAND gate and NOR gate and discuss their characteristics. Explain why these are called as universal building blocks.
  3. Describe the single variable theorem of Boolean algebra. With the help of truth tables, explain     associative and distributive laws.
