A system with H(s) = (s+2)/((s+1)(s+3)) is analyzed. What is the steady-state response to u(t) = 10sin(2t)?
A |H(j2)|×10 at angle ∠H(j2)
B Only depends on pole locations
C Cannot be determined without initial conditions
D 10 units constant
Correct Answer:  A. |H(j2)|×10 at angle ∠H(j2)
EXPLANATION

For sinusoidal input, steady-state output is |H(jω)|×A at angle ∠H(jω). Here ω=2, so output amplitude = |H(j2)|×10.

Test
A speech signal is band-limited to 4 kHz and sampled at 8 kHz. If 1000 samples are collected, what is the frequency resolution of its DFT?
A 1 Hz
B 4 Hz
C 8 Hz
D 0.5 Hz
Correct Answer:  C. 8 Hz
EXPLANATION

Frequency resolution = fs/N = 8000/1000 = 8 Hz. This is the minimum frequency spacing in DFT.

Test
A linear phase FIR filter of length N has which characteristic for group delay?
A Constant and equal to (N-1)/2
B Varies with frequency
C Zero
D Infinite
Correct Answer:  A. Constant and equal to (N-1)/2
EXPLANATION

Linear phase FIR filters have constant group delay = (N-1)/2 samples, which is why they're preferred for applications requiring minimal distortion.

Test
The concept of 'group delay' in filters refers to:
A The delay of magnitude spectrum
B The negative derivative of phase with respect to frequency
C The delay between input and output signals
D Filter settling time
Correct Answer:  B. The negative derivative of phase with respect to frequency
EXPLANATION

Group delay τ_g(ω) = -dθ(ω)/dω represents dispersion in filter's phase response

Test
For a stable IIR filter with difference equation y[n] = 0.5y[n-1] + x[n], the DC gain is:
A 0.5
B 1
C 2
D 1.5
Correct Answer:  C. 2
EXPLANATION

DC gain = H(z=1) = 1/(1-0.5) = 1/0.5 = 2

Test
Parseval's theorem states that energy in time domain equals energy in frequency domain. For discrete signals:
A ∑|x[n]|² = (1/N)∑|X[k]|²
B ∑|x[n]|² = (1/2π)∫|X(e^jω)|²dω
C ∑|x[n]|² = ∑|X[k]|²
D ∑|x[n]| = ∫|X(f)|df
Correct Answer:  B. ∑|x[n]|² = (1/2π)∫|X(e^jω)|²dω
EXPLANATION

Parseval's theorem for discrete-time: ∑|x[n]|² = (1/2π)∫|X(e^jω)|²dω over 2π

Test
Which window function has the BEST frequency resolution but WORST spectral leakage?
A Hamming window
B Hann window
C Rectangular window
D Blackman window
Correct Answer:  C. Rectangular window
EXPLANATION

Rectangular window has narrowest main lobe (best resolution) but highest sidelobe (worst leakage)

Q.18 Hard Analog Circuits
In a Wien bridge oscillator, what is the condition for sustained oscillation?
A Loop gain must be less than 1
B Amplifier gain must equal 3 (for condition of oscillation)
C Total phase shift around loop = 0° or 360°, and |Aβ| = 1
D Frequency response must be flat
Correct Answer:  C. Total phase shift around loop = 0° or 360°, and |Aβ| = 1
EXPLANATION

For sustained oscillation: (1) Barkhausen condition: |Aβ| = 1 (unity loop gain), (2) Phase condition: ∠Aβ = 0° or 360°. In Wien bridge, gain needed ≈ 3 to compensate losses.

Test
Q.19 Hard Analog Circuits
For a bootstrapped voltage follower, what is the advantage over a standard buffer?
A Higher output current capability
B Increased input impedance and reduced input bias current effects
C Lower noise figure
D Wider bandwidth
Correct Answer:  B. Increased input impedance and reduced input bias current effects
EXPLANATION

Bootstrapping increases input impedance by reducing effective base current drawn from source through capacitive feedback. This minimizes loading effects on high-impedance sources.

Test
Q.20 Hard Analog Circuits
In a log amplifier circuit, what is the primary source of error in practical implementations?
A Input bias current of op-amp
B Reverse saturation current variation with temperature
C Feedback capacitance
D Supply voltage ripple
Correct Answer:  B. Reverse saturation current variation with temperature
EXPLANATION

Log amplifier uses diode in feedback. Temperature changes cause Is (reverse saturation current) to vary exponentially, directly affecting the logarithmic transfer function. This is the dominant non-ideal effect.
