Consider the 30-Ω resistor in Fig. 4.134. First compute the Thevenin equivalent circuit as seen by the 30-Ω resistor. Compute the value of R that results in Thevenin equivalent resistance equal to the 30-Ω resistance and then calculate power delivered to the 30-Ω resistor. Now let R = 0 Ω, 110 Ω, and ∞, calculate the power delivered to the 30-Ω resistor in each case. What can you say about the value of R that will result in the maximum power that can be delivered to the 30-Ω resistor?

- Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are diodes made with III-V compound semiconductor materials such as aluminum gallium arsenide (AlGaAs), aluminum indium gallium phosphide (AlInGaP) or indium gallium nitride (InGaN), instead of silicon. The LEDs emit light when the device is operated under forward bias. LEDs of different colors have different turn-on voltages VD(on). For example: VD(on) : Red: ~ 1.6 V Yellow: ~ 1.7 V Green: ~ 1.8 V Blue: ~ 2.8 V White: ~ 3.8 V (a) Model these five LEDs with a simplified piecewise linear model (b) A rule of thumb is that it takes about 1 mA of current to “light” an LED while ~ 10 mA is needed for it to appear bright. Use the piecewise linear model for the LEDs, for the over-voltage indicator circuit to the right, find the values of Vin which will cause D1 or D2 to light (i.e. when ID1 or ID2 exceeds 1 mA).arrow_forwardConsider a fixed and updated instrumentation amplifier (where two resistors are lumped into one resistor), analyze the circuit if a common voltage source (VICM) is connected to two inputs.
