Electronics Fundamentals and Circuit Analysis

From the study guide

Electronics and Electrical Engineering Revision Sheet

1. 📌 Essentials

  • Diodes allow current in forward bias, block in reverse bias.
  • BJT: current-controlled device with collector, base, emitter.
  • FET: voltage-controlled device with high input impedance.
  • Negative feedback stabil gain and reduces distortion.
  • Power amplifiers classified as Class A, B AB, C based on conduction angle.
  • Voltage regulators maintain constant output voltage using Zener diodes and pass transistors.
  • Load line analysis finds the Q-point in BJTs.
  • Small-signal models simplify AC analysis: hybrid-π for BJT, transconductance for FET.
  • Efficiency of Class B amplifier ~78.5%.
  • Dropout voltage: minimum voltage difference for regulation.
