Book Description

This book covers the theory and application of discrete semiconductor devices including various types of diodes, bipolar junction transistors, JFETs, MOSFETs and IGBTs. Applications include rectifying, clipping, clamping, switching, small signal amplifiers and followers, and class A, B and D power amplifiers.

Focusing on practical aspects of analysis and design, interpretations of device data sheets are integrated throughout the chapters. Computer simulations of circuit responses are included as well. Each chapter features a set of learning objectives, numerous sample problems, and a variety of exercises designed to hone and test circuit design and analysis skills.
