INTRODUCTION:
This report talks about an experiment to study the characteristics of diodes and some
applications of them.
PROSEDURE:
Part 1: Plot of Id and Vd diode characteristics

We have built a circuit shown above using 1N4004 diode and fixed resistor (1K ohm) . Then,
we connected channel one of oscilloscope between the terminals of the diode, and a After
that, we varied the input DC, so it is in the range from 0 to 10 increasing un uniformly. Then,
we recorded Vd as we increased the source voltage, and we did the same way for measuring
Id by connecting multi-meter to measure it. we use the software (Excel) to plot Vd-Id curve
below. We recorded the results.

Part 2: Half-Wave diode rectifier

We built a half wave rectifier circuit shown in picture using 1N4004 Silicon diode and fixed
resistor ( 10 K ohm. Then we connected function generator to the input of circuit, we used 6v
p-p by oscilloscope and frequency 1kH sine wave. After that we connected channel one of
oscilloscope to input voltage of the circuit and channel two to output voltage which was
across the load resistance of the rectifier ( using DC measurement of oscilloscope ). We
recorded the results.
Part 3: Full-Wave rectifier

We built a bridge rectifier circuit shown in picture above using 1N4004 Silicon diode ( four
pieces ) and fixed resistor ( 10K ohm ). We used input 10 volte p-p by oscilloscope with
frequency 50 Hz. The we connected channel one of oscilloscope to the terminals of the
transformer and channel two to terminals of resistor. We recorded the results.

Part 4: RC filter and ripple voltage

We added a 22 farads capacitor to the circuit that in part 3 of the experiment in parallel with
the resistor shown in picture above. Then we did the same method that was in Part 3 of the
experiment to measure output and input voltages. The we measure the ripple voltage by
setting the oscilloscope to AC. We recorded the results.

Part 5: Zener diode voltage regulator using mains supply

We added Zener diode ( BZX85C ) and another resistor 620 ohm which is shown in picture
above, then we replaced the resistor that was in part 4 by 1M. Then we connected the
terminals of the oscilloscope to the terminals of transformer to set the voltage of transformer
10v peak by oscilloscope at 50 Hz frequency. We recorded the results.
Part 6 :

We replaced 10K ohms with 620 ohm resistor and added a capacitor 47F in parallel with
resistor 620 ohms in circuit that was in part 4, and added an IC regulator KA7805. We
connected the input of the regulator to the terminal of the capacitor (47F ) and the output
with terminal of another capacitor ( 0.47F) and the ground joining the remaining terminals
of two capacitors. The we used the oscilloscope to set the input voltage from 10-15 peak at
50Hz frequency. After that we added 1K ohm resistor in parallel with 47F. We recorded the
results.

The two graphs are approximately same. There is some difference in real case since the diode
is not ideal.

CANCLUSION:
The aim of experiment was achieved. All characteristics of the diodes and their application
was verified. The diode hold some certain voltage, if that voltage increases, the diode may
explode
