Q.1 [10 marks] (a) Draw a circuit diagram of the noninverting-amplifier and give an expression for the voltage gain in terms of the resistances, assuming an ideal op-amp. Give expressions for the input and output impedances of the amplifier. (6 marks) (b) Find the output voltage in terms of the input voltages and resistor values for the circuit shown in Fig. 1, using the ideal op-amp assumption. What is the input (4 marks) resistance seen by vA? What is the output resistance seen by RL?

Fig. 1 Q.2 [10 marks] (a) Explain that the semiconductor material has a negative temperature coefficient of resistance. Define the terms of intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors. Describe the difference between n-type and p-type semiconductor materials. (5 marks) (b) Draw an appropriate diode circuit for each of the following: AND gate, OR gate and voltage doubler. If VSS = 2 V, R = 1 k in the circuit of Fig. 2, draw the load line of the circuit and mark the end values on it. (5 marks)
