Multisim Simulation 5
AIM:
To study and verify the characteristics of an astable multivibrator.
COMPONENTS REQUIRED:
1. Transistor BC 547 ------------------- 2 No’s
2. Capacitor 0.01 μ F --------------------2 No’s
3. Resistors 1K Ώ, 33K Ώ ------- each 1No
4. CRO & Probes
5. Function Generator
6. Regulated Power Supply (0 - 30V)
THEORY:
Astable multivibrator has two quasi – states and it keeps on vibrating between these two states by itself. No
external signal is needed. The astable remains indefinitely in any of these two states. Assuming that the
multivibrator is already in action and is switching between two states. Let it be further observed that at the
instant considered Q1 is OFF and Q2 is ON. Since Q2 is ON, the capacitor is charged through RC1 and capacitor
C1 discharges through R1 the voltage across C1 when it is about to start discharging in Vcc. As capacitor C1
discharges more and more the identical at the point A becomes more and more positive, and eventually VA = Vr
the cut in voltage Q1 states conducting. When Q1 is ON Q2 becomes OFF. Similar operation repeats when Q1
becomes ON and Q2 becomes OFF and vice versa.
VB = Input Voltage at base of Q2
VC = Input Voltage at collector of Q1
VA = Input Voltage at base of Q1
VD = Input Voltage at collector of Q2
PROCEDURE:
1. Connect the circuit as shown in the circuit diagram.
2. Take the output across the collector considering Q1 is OFF and Q2 is ON, we get Vc2.
3. Now connect the wire across the base also and take the output VB2 and repeat with Q1 ON
and Q2 OFF.
4. The required waveforms are taken from the CRO.
MONOSTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR
AIM:
To conduct and verify the monostable multivibrator and draw the waveforms.
COMPONENTS REQUIRED:
1. Transistor BC 547 ---------- 2 No’s
2. Capacitor 0.1 μF ------------ 2 No’s
3. Resistors 1 KΏ -------------- 2 No’s
10 KΏ ------------ 4 No’s
4. Diode 1N 4007 -------------- 1 No
5. CRO & Probes
6. Function Generator
7. Regulated Power Supply (0 - 30V)
THEORY:
A monostable multivibrator has one stable state and the other state being quasi – stable state. Normally the
multi is in the stable state and when an external triggering pulse is applied it switches back to its original state,
without any triggering pulse. The output of the monostable multi while it remains in the quasi – stable is a part
of duration T, whose value depends upon the circuit components. Hence the monostable multivibrator is called
as ‘pulse operator ’. The monostable multivibrator is also referred to and ‘one shot’ or ‘uni vibrator’. Since only
one triggering signal is required to revert to the original state of stability, that is the stable state.
VC2 = Voltage at collector of Q2
VB2 = Voltage at base of Q2
VC1 = Voltage at collector of Q1
VB1 = Voltage at base of Q1
PROCEDURE:
1. Connect the circuit as shown in the circuit diagram.
2. Usually a +Ve supply voltage of about 10 V is applied as source voltage to Vcc
3. In the normal operation transistor Q2 is ON and output voltage across the base and
collector are noted.
4. Then an external triggering is applied from the high-pass filter circuit.
5. Then the transistor Q2 is OFF state, and then the voltage across the junction of the
transistor Q1 is noted.
6. The output waveforms are plotted for VC1 , VB1 , VC2 , VB2 which are observed from the
CRO.
