Theory :

Soldering :

It is a method of uniting two or more pieces of metal by means of a fusible alloy or metal calledsolder applied in the molter state.

Soldering Iron, consists of insulating handle, connected through a metal shank to the bit. Thebit is made of Iron has got good heat capacity and has good thermal conductivity. Generally someirons have thermostatic central to keep the temperature of the bit constant wattages 15W, 25W, 50Wand 100 Watts.

The low wattage iron like 5W, 5W are used to assemble components like FET’s or MOSFET’s

For audio/video circuits 15W, 25W.

For soldering electrical wires 60W, 100W cables which needs a high amount of powerdissipation.

Aim :

To study of Multiband Radio Receiver

Equipment needed :

Multiband Radio Receiver kit, Multimeter and tool kits.

Theory :

In the multiband Radio Receiver RF coil band switches are different remaining stages are sameas in the case of superneterodyre receiver. The frequency band or the wave band covered is decide bythe inductance of the coil and the capacitance of the variable capacitor that tuned circuits in the an-tenna section and the oscillator section of the converter stage. In modern superheterodyne receivers itbecomes neccessary to have a shortwave bands in addition to the mediumwave (MW), so that stationsbroadcosting on SW frequencies can also recieved. A receiver which includes one or two SW bandsalso in addition to the MW band is called multiband Radio receiver.

One coil and a variable capacitor can be tuned over one band of frequencies. For a secondband of frequencies. For a second band of frequencies, a different number of a tunes is required bothfor antenna section and the oscillator section of the converter stage. The variable capacitors, which areparts of a two gang capacitor will remain the same. Thus for changing one wave band to another, oneset of coils and trimmers should be connected to the circuit, simultaneously in the antenna section andthe oscillator section of the converter stage of the receiver. This involves a number of switchingoperations that must be performed before a waveband can be changed. This is done with the help of aspecial multicantact switch known as the band change switch or a wave change switch. The commonmost switch used in multiband receivers is rotary switch.

Rotary Switch :

A rotary band switch consists of moveable contacts and fixed contacts are called positions.The number of positions per pole is equal to the number of wavebands in the nultiband receiver.

Fixed contacts MW, SW1, SW2 are punche don a circular plate of fibre or some other suitableinsulating material. A smaller circular plate of the same insulating material carrier two semicircularmetalic strips with projections on one end, which will make contact positions MS, SW1, SW2 one byone as the inner fibre plate is rotated with a central shaft. The fixed poles P1 and P2 punched on theouter fibre plate remain permanently in contact with their respective number of strips.

Aim :

Rectify the faults in public address system.

Theory :

A Public address system amplifies low level sound to a higher level so that it can be heard bylarge number of people gathered and at a considerable distance.

The PAS consists of microphone, amplifier and loud speaker

Even if any one of the equipment or item is of poor quality, the sound quality will be bad.

A good quality, trouble free and satisfactory performance. Use good quality cable and connec-tion with good connections which will give good and satisfactory sound.

Connections of the Loud Speaker :

This is very impartent. Wrong connections can be damage both the amplifier or loud speaker.Improper connection lead to poor quality of sound as well.

It is a specifications of a loud speaker which is very impartent to know for correctly connectingloud speakers to an amplifier of 8, 16, 4

We can connect the more than one loud speaker in series or parallel combination

If the loud speakers are connected in series see effective impedence R = R1 + R2 should beequal to the output impedance of the amplifier. If the speaker are connected in parallel R = see theimpedence offer by the output terminals of this amplifier.

Impedence Matching :

To transfer maximum power from amplifier to loud speaker the output impedence of th eamplifieris should be equal to the impedence of the good speaker.

A 23/26 type cable is prefarable to use - 100W amplifier. The distance between amplifier tocable is 20 metres to reduce power losses in the cable. For efficient transfer of power from the ampli-fier to the speaker, we can avoid power losses by using line matching transformer (LMT).

The terminal strip with making are used for connecting conbination of low impedence speak-ers or drive units (without LMT) with impedences such as 4, 8, 16

The terminal strip with V (Volt) marking are used for connecting speakers / driver units withLMT.

LMT’s are used in a large installation which require a large number of speakers to beconnected at a distance. As the length of the cable increases so the strength of the sound signaldecreases. Hence in installations where the length of the cable is sub stantial. LMT’s are used. Whenusing LMT’s 100V, line is used. This 100V line system comparable to the electricity distributionsystem. In electricity distribution system a large voltage is transmitted from the sub-station such highvoltage is trnasmitted to over come losses in cables over large distances. This voltage being is sup-plied to houses is reduced by using a step-down transformer. Similarly a high voltage signal 100V. isfed to LMT’s These LMT’s act as step down transformers. As the electricity wiring system in housesis done in parallel similarly all the wiring when using LMT is done in parallel.

The Bass CONTROL of the amplifier should be in CUT position when Driver Units / Hornspeakers are used with the amplifiers.

Always check PHASING while connecting the driver units.

Always earth the amplifier before operation connect the earth terminal of the amplifier to theelectrical earth / any water pipe.

Aim :

Study of tape recorder, two-in-one and audio CD player

Tape Recorder :

It is an electronic and tape transport mechanism in which a magnetic tape is recorded music orspeech

The tape recorder consists of following controls.

A tape recording machine is required to perform three important functions viz. recording,playback and erasing. Fig is a block diagram which indicates the basic functions performed by a taperecorder system.

In the block diagram, the same amplifier is used for recording and playback and is called therecord/playback amplifier. During the recording process a ganged switch connects the input of theamplifier to the microphone and the output is connected to the record head so that the amplified audiosignals are impressed on the moving tape. In the playback position, the magnetic signals picked up ordetected from the tape by the same head are applied to the input of the amplifier for reporduction bythe loudspeaker. One and the same head performing the combined functions of recording and playbackis known as the record playback head. The tape is wound on the supply reel and is moved at constantspeed and under constant tension in front of the record / playback head during recording and playbackoperations. The tape is finally collected by the take-up reel.

An erase head located to the left of the record/playback head wipes off any information fromthe tape before the tape reaches the record head for a fresh recording. The erase head is energised bythe HF oscillator which also applies an AC bias to the record head during the recording process forimproving the quality of recording. The erase h ead is not energised ruing the playback process toprevent the recorded matter from being erased. A tape transport system consisting of a motor, driveassembly, belts and pulleys enables the tape to move at constant speed during record and playbackprocess and also to move faster during the fast-forward and rewind processes.

All above are called operating controls of a tape recorder. The tape transport mechanism andmotor recording / play back heads, cassette and electronic circuit, which operates in recording / play-back mode of operation.

Two-in-one :

In this system a radio and tape recorder is separated by a lever switch. In the circuit taperecorder operation is same. Radio operation as follows

A transistor/IC version receiver is like any other normal receiver in which valves have beenreplaced by trannsistors. With the use of transistors, the size and weight of all other componentsrequired for the circuit is also considerably reduced. Thus, reasonably prices pocket transistor receiv-ers are not available in all convenient shapes and sizes.

Except for some receivers meant ot receive only local stations, all other modern transistorreceivers are of the superheterodyne type. A transistor superheterodyne receiver makes use of thestages which function in the same way as the stages of a valve type receiver. However, there arecertain differences in the circuits employed in the two cases because of some basic differences be-tween the properties of transistors and vacuum tubes. In order to bring out clearly the points of differ-ence and similarity between the circuits used in the two types of receivers, the circuit diagram of astandard transistor receiver.
