This laboratory manual contains 67 experiments to demonstrate the theory in Electronic Principles. Sixty-one of the experiments focus on specifi c topics covered in the textbook. These 61 experiments help the student better understand the individual topics presented throughout the textbook. The additional six System Applications are system-based experiments that tie together related topics cov- ered within the textbook. The early applications tie together related topics using single- stage systems. The later applications present the student with the opportunity to work with multiple-stage systems. The system application-based experiments stand on their own and may be completed without doing the preceding experiments. However, they do tie together the preceding system applications. Each experiment begins with a short discussion. Then, under Required Reading, the entry provides the sections of the textbook that should be read before attempting to do the experiment. In the Procedure section, one or more circuits will be built and tested. Troubleshooting and Critical Thinking sections explore more advanced areas. Questions at the end of each experiment are a fi nal test of what was learned during the experiment. Optional sections are included in many experiments. They are to be used at the discretion of the instructor. Applications sections demonstrate how to use transducers such as buzzers, LEDs, microphones, motors, photoresistors, phototransistors, and speakers. Additional Work sections include advanced experiments. The Instructor Resources section of McGraw-Hill’s Connect has Multisim-constructed circuits available for download for each of the experiments. Multisim provides the students with an opportunity to gain valuable troubleshooting experience without the potential to damage test equipment or electronic parts. At the end of each experiment, the data tables include columns for data obtained from calculations, measurements using Multisim, and from hands-on measurements. Instructors can assign students to fi rst perform the required circuit calculations, then test the circuit using simulation software, and then build the circuit using actual components. As alternatives, the students can take circuit measurements using only actual components or only circuit simulation. This enables the instructor to offer the laboratory portion of the course using either online or blended formats. Students will fi nd the experiments in this lab manual to be instructive and interesting. The experiments verify and expand the theory presented in Electronic Principles. They make it come alive. When the experiments have been completed, students will have that rounded grasp of theory that can come only from practical experimentation. Albert P. Malvino David J. Bates Patrick E.

A real voltage source, however, has a small internal resistance that produces an IR drop. As long as this internal resistance is much smaller than the load resistance, almost all the source voltage appears across the load. A stiff voltage source is one whose internal resistance is less than 1/100 of the load resistance. With a stiff voltage source, at least 99 percent of the source voltage appears across the load resistor. A current source is different. It produces an output current that is independent of the load resistance. One way to build a current source is to use a source resistance that is much larger than the load resistance. An ideal current source has an infi nite source resistance. A real current source has an extremely high source resistance. A stiff current source is one whose internal resistance is at least 100 times greater than the load resistance. With a stiff current source, at least 99 percent of the source current passes through the load resistor. In this experiment, the conditions necessary to achieve a stiff voltage source and current source will be investigated. This experiment will also provide an opportunity to troubleshoot and design both voltage and current sources. GOOD TO KNOW Even new components can be out of tolerance. It is a good habit to measure the value of the resistors before use. Required Reading Before measuring any voltage or current, the approxi- mate value should be known so that the test equipment Chapter 1 (Secs. 1-3 and 1-4) of Electronic Principles, can be set to the proper range. Examine Fig. 1-1 and 8th ed. estimate and record the load voltage for each value of R listed in Table 1-1. It is important to be able to 1 Equipment estimate these rough values and to be able to calculate exact values. 1 power supply: adjustable to 10 V 6 ½-W resistors: 10 V, 47 V, 100 V, 470 V, 1 kV, 10 kV R A 1 1 DMM (digital multimeter) + + V R Procedure 10 V1 10 kVL VL – – VOLTAGE SOURCES B 1.
