Course Outcomes:

At the end of the course the student will be able to:

• Obtain static characteristics of semiconductor devices to discuss their performance.
• Trigger the SCR by different methods
• Verify the performance of single phase controlled full wave rectifier and AC voltage controller with R and RL loads.
• Control the speed of a DC motor, universal motor and stepper motors.
• Verify the performance of single phase full bridge inverter connected to resistive load.

Conduct of Practical Examination:

1. All laboratory experiments are to be included for practical examination.

2. Breakup of marks and the instructions printed on the cover page of answer script to be strictly adhered by the examiners.

3. Students can pick one experiment from the questions lot prepared by the examiners.

4. Change of experiment is allowed only once and 15% Marks allotted to the procedure part to be made zero.
