Electronic Devices and Circuits

Rate this book
A unique feature of this book is that it shows just how simple it is to design electronic circuits, using little more than Ohm's law and the capacitor impedance equation. Numerous practical circuit design examples are offered, using currently-available devices and standard-value components. Commencing with an introduction to semiconductors and pn-junction theory, all of the most important semiconductor devices in general use today are covered. The operation of each device is carefully explained, and its characteristics and parameters are discussed in detail. Circuit applications are then treated, and the design and analysis of circuits involving each device are investigated. Coverage includes IC operational amplifiers, IC audio amplifiers, and IC voltage regulators. Features Explanation of the operation and characteristics of virtually all important electronic devices Explanation of the operation of circuit using each device Practical examples showing dc and ac analysis of each circuit Practical examples showing how to design each circuit Practise problems at end of each section; answers at chapter end Chapter review questions and problems Answers to odd-numbered problems at the back of the book Device data sheets and component standard values in the appendices
