Varactor diode Operation and Characteristics..

Operation of Varactor diode:
The varactor diode, also called a varicap, tuning or voltage variable capacitor diode, is also a junction diode with a small impurity dose at its junction, which has the useful property that its junction or transition capacitance is easily varied electronically.



When any diode is reverse biased, a depletion region is formed, as seen in fig 1. The larger the reverse bias applied across the diode, the width of the depletion layer "W" becomes wider. Conversely, by decreasing the reverse bias voltage, the depletion region becomes narrower. This depletion region is devoid of majority carriers and acts like insulator preventing conduction between the N and P regions of the diode, just like a dielectric between two plates of a capacitor.



As the capacitance is inversely proportional to the distance between the plates, the transition capacitance varies inversely with the reverse voltages. Consequently, an increase in reverse bias voltage will result in an increase in the depletion region width and a subsequent decrease in transition capacitance. At zero volt, the varactor depletion region is small and capacitance is large at  approximately 600pF. When the reverse bias voltage across the varactor diode is 15V ,the capacitance is 30pF.


Applications of Varactor diode :

  • Used in FM radio and TV receivers.
  • Used in AFC circuits,self adjusting bridge circuits and adjustable band pass filters.
  • Used in tuning of LC resonant circuit in microwave frequency multipliers and in very low noise microwave parametric amplifiers.

Tunnel or Esaki diode Operation and Characteristics:

Definition of Tunnel diode: 

This diode has two terminals. This tunnel diode is also known as Esaki diode. Here is the symbol of tunnel diode or Esaki diode.


The Tunnel or Esaki diode is a junction diode which exhibits negative resistance under low forward bias conditions. An ordinary PN junction diode has an impurity concentration of about 1 part in 10pow(8) with this amount of doping the width of the depletion layer is of an order of 5 microns. This potential barrier restrains the flow of carriers from majority carrier side to the minority carrier side. If the concentration of impurity atoms is greatly increased to the level of 1 part in 10pow(3),the device characteristics are completely changed. The width of the junction barrier varies inversely as the square root of the impurity concentration and therefore ,is reduced from 5 micron to less than 100Armstrongs.This thickness is about 1/50th of the wavelength of visible light. for such thin potential energy barriers ,the electrons will penetrate through the junction rather than surmounting them. This quantum mechanical behaviour is referred to as tunnelling and hence, these high-impurity-density PN junction devices are called tunnel diodes.

Characteristics of Tunnel diode:

       The V-I characteristic for a typical germanium tunnel diode is shown below. It is seen that at first current rises sharply as applied voltage is increased ,where it would have risen slowly for an ordinary PN junction diode(shown by dashed line). Also ,the reverse current is much larger for comparable back bias than in other diodes due to the thinness of the junction. The interesting portion of the characteristics starts at point A on the curve i.e. peak voltage.As the forward bias is increased beyond this point,the forward current drops and continues to drop until point B is reached. This is valley voltage. At B,the current starts to increase once again and does so very rapidly as bias is increased further. Beyond this point, characteristic resembles that of an ordinary diode. apart from peak voltage and valley voltage,the other two parameters normally used to specify the diode behaviour are at the peak current and the peak-to-valley current ratio,which are 2mA and 10nA respectively , as shown.  

The V-I characteristics of the tunnel diode illustrate that it exhibits dynamic resistance between A and B. Below figure shows energy level diagrams of the tunnel diode for three bias levels. The shaded areas show the energy states occupied by electrons in the valence band,whereas the cross-hatched regions represent energy states in the conduction band  occupied by the electrons. The levels of which the energy states are occupied by electrons on either side of the junctions are shown by dotted lines. When the bias is zero,these lines are at the same height. Unless energy is imparted to the electrons from some external source,the energy possessed by the electrons on the N-side of the junction is insufficient to permit them to climb over the junction barrier to reach the P-side. However ,quantum mechanics show that there is a finite probability for the electrons to tunnel through the junction to reach the other side,provided there are allowed empty states in the P-side of the junction at the same energy level. Hence the forward current is zero.

Operation of Tunnel diode:                  

            When the small forward bias is applied to the junction,the energy level of the  p-side is lower as compared with the N-side. As shown in figure 3, electrons in the conduction band of the N-side see empty energy level on the P-side. Hence, tunnelling from N-side to P-side takes place. Tunnelling on other directions is not possible because the valence band electrons on the P-side are now opposite to the forbidden gap in the N-side.

              When the forward bias is raised beyond this point,tunnelling decreases as shown in fig, 4. The energy of P-side is now decreased further , with the result that fewer conduction band electrons on the N-side are opposite to the unoccupied P-side energy levels. As the bias is raised,forward current drops. This corresponds to the negative resistance region of the diode characteristic. As the forward bias is raised still further,tunnelling stops altogether and it behaves as a normal PN junction diode.

Explain the Parallel Operation Of Two Synchronous Generators or Alternators???

Parallel Operation Of Two Synchronous Generators or Alternators :

The electricity demand of a country is fed by many alternators operating in parallel. There are various advantages of operating the alternators in parallel. some of them are listed below. 

  • For a given capacity of a generating station, either a single large unit or many small units may be installed. If there are many small units operating in parallel instead of the single large unit then a number of alternators operating at a time can be changed depending upon electricity requirements or load demands. This will in operating the alternator near its hill load capacity so that efficiency will also be better. Therefore operating cost will be significantly reduced compared to the single large unit.
*Principle and working of Synchronous generator or alternator : 
  • A particular unit may be shut down for certain period during the maintenance and inspection at the power stations. For that period the load can be transferred to other units if number of units are operating in parallel.
  • Several power stations are interconnected by a grid which is economical and advantageous. This will make sure the optimum utility of the alternators.
  • The continuity and reliability of the supply can be maintained at better level due to interconnections. 

There are certain requirements which must be met for parallel operation of alternators be reliable.
  • The rated speeds of the alternators should be such that they give same frequency generated voltage (f =PNs/120)
  • The output voltage rating of the alternators must be same. 
  • Even though the kVA ratings of the alternators are different, they should be of the same type so that waveform of generated voltage is same.
  • The armature of alternators should have reactance. 
  • The prime movers of the alternators should have same speed load drooping characteristics so that they can be loaded in proportion to their output ratings.

This conditions for proper synchronization of the alternators for the parallel operation to be successful are as given below. The alternator or group of alternators which are already in operation and sharing load are called running machines while the alternator which is to be connected to these alternators for parallel operation is called incoming machine. The incoming machine must meet the following conditions for proper parallel operation.

  • The terminal voltage of the incoming machine must be exactly same as that of the others or of the bus bars connecting them. 
  • The speed of the incoming machine must be such that its frequency if- PNs 120 equals the frequency of other machines or that of the bus bar. 
  • The phase of the incoming machine voltage must be same as that of the other machines or bus bar with respect to load. The phase voltages of incoming machine and bus bar should be in opposition which ensures that there is no circulating current between windings of alternators already in operation and the incoming machine. 

The interconnection of alternators i.e. the process of synchronization is already discussed previously. Now we will consider how the two alternators will operate parallel. What will happen if the driving torque or the excitation for any of the alternator is changed. In practice it is rare to have two alternators operating in parallel. But concept of parallel operation of alternators can be well understood by considering two alternators in parallel.

Consider two identical alternators connected in parallel as shown in below figure.



Here cylindrical rotor alternators are assumed for simplicity,but the results obtained are equally applicable to both salient and non-salient machines.


Solving above two equations,

If no load is connected to the alternators only circulating current Isy will flow in the circuit.The current is given by
