Ans. \(3 \)
(a) \((+32)_{10} - (-64)_{10}\) - (4 marks)
\[(+32)_{10} = (00100000)_{2}\] \[(−64)_{10} = (11000000)_{2}\]
The \(2'\)s complement of \((−64)_{10} = (01000000)_{2}\)
\((+32)_{10} - (-64)_{10}\) is determined by adding the \(2'\)s complement of \((−64)_{10}\) to \((+32)_{10}\).
Therefore,
00100000
+ 01000000

Star Network - (2 marks)

Delta Network - (2 marks)

Equivalent resistances for a Star network - (5 marks)
To calculate the resistance of the network of figure between terminals \(1\) and \(4\), we see that it comprises \(R_3\) in parallel with the series resistances, \(R_1\) and \(R_2\). In symbols, \(R_3 || (R_1 + R_2)\), to give (by the product-over-sum rule)
\[\frac{R_3(R_1 + R_2)}{R_1 + R_2 + R_3} =\frac{R_3(R_1 + R_2)}{\sum~R} ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)\]where \(\sum~R = R_1 + R_2 + R_3\). Looking into the same terminals in second figure we see the resistance is \(R'_1 + R'_3\) and this must be the same for both networks, that is
\[R'_1 + R'_3= \frac{R_3(R_1 + R_2)}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(2)\]Then the resistance between terminals 2 and 3 is
\[R'_2 + R'_3= \frac{R_3(R_1 + R_3)}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(3)\]and looking into terminals 1 and 2 the final equation is obtained
\[R'_1 + R'_2= \frac{R_1(R_2 + R_3)}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(4)\]Subtracting equations \(2-3\) to find \(R'_1 +R'_2\) :
\[R'_1 - R'_2= \frac{R_1R_3-R_1R_2}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(5)\]Adding equations 4 and 5 yields
\[2R'_1 = \frac{2R_1R_3}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(6)\]or
\[R'_1 = \frac{R_1R_3}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(7)\]Solving for \(R'_2\) and \(R'_3\) similarly leads to
\[R'_2 = \frac{R_1R_2}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(8)\]and
\[R'_3 = \frac{R_2R_3}{\sum~R}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(9)\]Ans. \(5 \)

Common Solution of Binary Ladder network - (2 marks)
The expression for the analogue voltage output by a \(n\)-bit binary ladder network is given by:
\[V = \frac{V_{REF}}{2^{n}}\sum \left(b_{n} \times 2^{n-1}\right)\]
for \(5\)-bit case, \(V\) is given as
\[V = \frac{V_{REF}}{2^{5}}\left(b_{5} \times 2^{4}+b_{4} \times 2^{3}+b_{3} \times 2^{2}+b_{2} \times 2^{1}+b_{1} \times 2^{0}\right)\]
\[V_{REF}= 10~ V\]
Hence,
\[V = \frac{10}{32}\left(b_{5} \times 16+b_{4} \times 8+b_{3} \times 4+b_{2} \times 2+b_{1} \times 1\right) \]

\[V = \frac{10}{32}\left( 16+0 + 4+ 2+ 1\right) \]
\[V = \frac{10}{32}\left( 23\right)= \frac{230}{32}= 7.1875~ V\]

\[V = \frac{10}{32}\left(0 \times 16+1 \times 8+1 \times 4+0 \times 2+1 \times 1\right) \]
\[V = \frac{10}{32}\left(0 + 8+ 4+0 +1 \right) \]
\[V = \frac{10}{32}\left(13 \right)= \frac{130}{32}=4.0625 ~V\]

Statement of Maximum Power transfer theorem
*Maximum power is transferred to a load resistance connected between two terminals of a network when the load resistance is equal to the resistance of the network measured between the same two terminals, the sources of the network being replaced by their internal resistances. *
Proof of the Maximum Power transfer theorem
The proof is as follows. Any two-terminal network can be reduced to a single voltage source in series with a resistance (Thevenin's theorem), as in the figure.

If a resistance, \(R_L\) is attached across AB, the current through it by Ohm's law is
\[I_L=\frac{V_T}{(R_T+R_L)}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)\]
The power developed in the load is
\[P_L=I_L^2R_L=\left[\frac{V_T}{(R_T+R_L)}\right]^2R_L~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(2)\]
Differentiating with respect to \(R_L\) and equating to zero for turning points in \(P_L\)
\[\frac{dP_L}{dR_L}=\left[\frac{V_T^2(R_T+R_L)^2-2V_T^2(R_T+R_L)R_L}{(R_T+R_L)^4}\right]=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(3)\]
\[V_T^2(R_T+R_L)^2=2V_T^2(R_T+R_L)R_L~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(4)\]
\[R_T +R_L = 2R_L~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(5) \]
that is
\[R_T = R_L~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(6)\]
It is left as an exercise to check that this condition leads to maximum power in the load by deciding if \(\frac{d^2P_L}{dR_L^2}\) is negative. The maximum power transfer theorem is reduced to:
Maximum power is transferred from a resistive network when the load resistance is equal to the Thevenin resistance of the network.
When \(R_T = R_L\), the current through the load must be \(V_T/2R_L\), so the maximum power developed will be \(\frac{I^2_{max}}{R_L}\), or
\[P_{max}=\left(\frac{V^2_TR_L}{2R^2_L}\right)=\left(\frac{V^2_T}{4R_L}\right) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(7)\]
