Multivibrator Interview Question Answer

What is meaning of the switching transistor?

Switching transistor : When a transistor is used as switch, it is called as switching transistor.

Give reason: The transistor has high efficiency as a switch in the OFF and Saturation condition.

Transistor OFF state

The collector leakage current flow through transistor during its OFF state therefore the power loss is small as compared to full load current. Due to this reason its efficiency is high during OFF state.

Transistor saturation state

The power loss during saturation condition is quite low because of small knee voltage.

At which state the transistor operates like switch?

Transistor as switch

Cut off

The transistor operates like an open circuit.

Saturation

The transistor operates like short circuit. Therefore, the transistor operates like switch in the cut off and saturation region.

Which is stable region for operation of the transistor?

Active region

What is meaning of the multi - vibrator?

Multi – vibrator It is an electronic circuit which generates non – sinusoidal waveforms.

Which type of feedback is used in the multi – vibrator circuit?

Positive feedback

How many stages the multi – vibrator consists of?

The multi – vibrator circuit consists of two stage amplifiers in which output of the one amplifier feedback to the input of the other amplifier.

Which type of waveform the output of the multi – vibrator consists of?

The output of the multi – vibrator should be square or rectangular waveform which depends upon circuit conditions.

Describe the different types of multi – vibrator.

Types of multi – vibrator

Astable (Free running)

Monostable (One shot)

Bi – stable (Two shot or flip flop)

Explain the term: Astable multi – vibrator

Astable multi – vibrator

It is multi – vibrator in which the operation of two states changes automatically. However, the time of operation of a state depends upon circuit parameters. It is also called as free running multi – vibrator.

Explain the term: Monostable multi – vibrator

Mono stable multi – vibrator

It is multi – vibrator which has one stable state and quasi stable i.e., half stable. One transistor is in ON state whereas the other transistor is in OFF state. When the input pulse is applied the circuit changes its state. It is also called as one shot multi – vibrator.

Explain the term: Bi – stable multi – vibrator

Bi – stable multi – vibrator

It is multi – vibrator which has two stable states. One pulse is used to generate half cycle of the square wave and another pulse is used to generate next half cycle of the square wave.

Which multi – vibrator generates square wave without any external pulse?

Astable or free running multi – vibrator

Which multi – vibrator has no stable state?

Astable or free running multi – vibrator

Write the expression of frequency for the square wave Astable multi – vibrator

Frequency of square wave = 1 / T

                            Where T = 1.4RC

Which multi – vibrator has only one stable state?

Monostable multi – vibrator

Which multi – vibrator has two stable states?

Bistable multi – vibrator

Describe the function of feedback capacitors in the Bistable multi – vibrator.

Function of feedback capacitors

To improve the switching characteristics

To produce distortion less square wave output
