Soldering :
It is a method of uniting two or more pieces of metal by means of a fusible alloy or metal called
solder applied in the molter state.
Soldering Iron, consists of insulating handle, connected through a metal shank to the bit. The
bit is made of Iron has got good heat capacity and has good thermal conductivity. Generally some
irons have thermostatic central to keep the temperature of the bit constant wattages 15W, 25W, 50W
and 100 Watts.
The low wattage iron like 5W, 5W are used to assemble components like FETs or MOSFETs
For audio/video circuits 15W, 25W.
For soldering electrical wires 60W, 100W cables which needs a high amount of power
dissipation.

Solder Squeezer :
It is mainly used to suck the molter solder completely at the joints to be desolder in order to
ensure, effective desolder, it consists of a spring placed in a hollow tube with a mechanism to apply or
release force on the spring. Initially the spring is compressed by applying force. When the force of the
spring is released using press release button the spring produces a sucking force through a nozzle
while retaining its original shape. This sucking force can be used to remove the molten solder at the
time of desoldering.
Soldering Gun :
Soldering gun is a soldering tool used for soldering at a given instant heat. High current flows
as long as the switch is pressed. It operates based on the principle of transformer inside the construc-
tion. The primary winding is given to 230V and the secondary winding is given to tip of the soldering.
Soldering Iron Stand :
It is used to place the soldering iron when not in use. They are made of wooden plants, heli-
cally wound iron etc.,
Soldering Alloys :
The solder alloy has low melting point and the liquids at temperatures, below the melting point
of pure lead. The wetting depends on Tin content and the load is added to reduce cost.
Example : Tin lead, Tin antimony and Tin lead, antimony.
Soldering Flux :
Soldering Flux is any solid, liquid or gaseous compound which can be heated is capable of
promoting or accelerating the wetting of metals with solders such medium is called flux.
Wires :
Generally single strand and multi strand wires are used for interconnections for assembling
discrete components, circuits.

Theory :
A transister radio receivers makes a use of semiconductor diode in the detector stage. The
diode has same propecties as detection and rectification.
The diode is used for AM detection / demadulation. In the given circuit, C is a small capacitence
and R is a large resistance. The parallel combination of R,C with load resistance across RL the output
voltage is measured VO. At each positive peak of RF cycle, C changes upto a potential almost equalto peak signal voltage Vs. The output produced VO is modulating voltage with small amount of
ripple. In practical circuit unwanted signals are removed by using diode detector.
The audio signal from the detector is fed to the base of the voltage amplifier through a coupling
capacitor C11(8PF), Resistors R12, R13 are the voltage dividers for the base emitter bias. Resistor
R14 is the dc stabilizer by passed by the capacitor C13 (20mF), C14 (0.005mF) is the RF by pass filter.
C12 (30mF) is an electrolytical capacitor and is shunted across the battery supply for decoupling
signals from all stages.

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 same
as in the case of superneterodyre receiver. The frequency band or the wave band covered is decide by
the 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 it
becomes neccessary to have a shortwave bands in addition to the mediumwave (MW), so that stations
broadcosting 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 second
band of frequencies. For a second band of frequencies, a different number of a tunes is required both
for antenna section and the oscillator section of the converter stage. The variable capacitors, which are
parts of a two gang capacitor will remain the same. Thus for changing one wave band to another, one
set of coils and trimmers should be connected to the circuit, simultaneously in the antenna section and
the oscillator section of the converter stage of the receiver. This involves a number of switching
operations that must be performed before a waveband can be changed. This is done with the help of a
special multicantact switch known as the band change switch or a wave change switch. The common
most 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 suitable
insulating material. A smaller circular plate of the same insulating material carrier two semicircular
metalic strips with projections on one end, which will make contact positions MS, SW1, SW2 one by
one 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 :
Study of Public Address System, Microphone, Amplifier and loud speakers and inter
connections.
Equipment needed :
3 Microphones, 2 loud speakers and 100W amplifier kit, connecting wires, multimeter.
Theory :
A public address system amplifies low level sound to a higher level so that it can be heard by
large number of people gathered and at a considerable distance.
A basic public address system has input source is a microphone, which pick ups low level
sound like a human speech. Examples of some other input sources are a cassette player for playbackof recorded music, or compact disc player.
Amplifier :
It is an electronic circuit in which sound low level signal to higher level signal and improves
the signal gain. The gain depends upon the number amplifiers are used in casteded stages. This
determines the AF power levels. This amplifier consists of 3 or 4 microphone auxillary circuit at input
level with controlling switches for each microphone. Each microphone has got volume controllers to
control audio signal levels.
Special electronic circuit provides and excellent sound quality. Cut and Boost type Bass and
Treble controls, master control, 4 input volume controls and a special feature of adjusting tape sensi-
tivity through tape Hi/Lo switch have been provided. An LED ARRAY gives a visual indication of the
output level. Line ouput in addition to speaker outputs of 4,8,16 ohm and 100W is provided.

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS :
Speaker impedence taps of 4, 8 and 16 have been provided for direct connection of speakers to the
amplifier when the distance between the amplifier and speakers is less than 50 meters. Use 23/26 or
thicker cable for connections. Be sure that the total impedence of the speakers is equal to or more than
the impedance specified on the terminal strip.
SPEAKERSFig 14.3
PHASING OF LOUDSPEAKERS / UNITS
When two or more speakers / units are installed in the same area and are facing in the same
direction, it is essential that their cones / diaphragms move in unison. Otherwise, the sound output of
one speaker will cancel the sound output of other. To avoid any mistake, the terminals of all driver
units are marked L1 & L2. For correct wiring refer the sketches.

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 by
large 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 connecting
loud 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 be
equal to the output impedance of the amplifier. If the speaker are connected in parallel R = see the
impedence offer by the output terminals of this amplifier.
Impedence Matching :
To transfer maximum power from amplifier to loud speaker the output impedence of th eamplifier
is 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 to
cable 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 with
LMT.

LMTs are used in a large installation which require a large number of speakers to be
connected at a distance. As the length of the cable increases so the strength of the sound signal
decreases. Hence in installations where the length of the cable is sub stantial. LMTs are used. When
using LMTs 100V, line is used. This 100V line system comparable to the electricity distribution
system. In electricity distribution system a large voltage is transmitted from the sub-station such high
voltage 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. is
fed to LMTs These LMTs act as step down transformers. As the electricity wiring system in houses
is 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 / Horn
speakers 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 the
electrical 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 or
speech
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 tape
recorder 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 the
amplifier to the microphone and the output is connected to the record head so that the amplified audio
signals are impressed on the moving tape. In the playback position, the magnetic signals picked up or
detected from the tape by the same head are applied to the input of the amplifier for reporduction by
the loudspeaker. One and the same head performing the combined functions of recording and playback
is known as the record playback head. The tape is wound on the supply reel and is moved at constant
speed and under constant tension in front of the record / playback head during recording and playback
operations. 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 from
the tape before the tape reaches the record head for a fresh recording. The erase head is energised by
the HF oscillator which also applies an AC bias to the record head during the recording process for
improving the quality of recording. The erase h ead is not energised ruing the playback process to
prevent the recorded matter from being erased. A tape transport system consisting of a motor, drive
assembly, belts and pulleys enables the tape to move at constant speed during record and playback
process and also to move faster during the fast-forward and rewind processes.

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 been
replaced by trannsistors. With the use of transistors, the size and weight of all other components
required 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 transistor
receivers are of the superheterodyne type. A transistor superheterodyne receiver makes use of the
stages which function in the same way as the stages of a valve type receiver. However, there are
certain 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 a
standard transistor receiver.

CD Player :
A recorded compact disc (CD) is played in a CD/VCD player, detection of pits and present on
the CD is also done by a laser beam of low power are focused on the rotating CD. If the rays reach a
flat they will come back after reflection from the flat, but if fail on the PIT then they will get absorbed
there and will not come back. By processing to reflected rays circuits of CD/VCD player get informa-
tion about the combinations of PITS and FLATS. On these digital signals thousands of circuits of CD/VCD player do various type of processing and finally generate analog audio / video signals. Similar to
those signals which were given at the input of the video card. By giving audio signals to the loud
speaker and video signals to video section of a T.V, sound /picture similar original can be produced.
