Meant for the undergraduate students of electrical, electronics,
communications and computer engineering, this book uses a top-down
approach for the study of electronics rather than the traditional bottom-up
approach. This approach has the advantage of allowing the learner to cover
only the basic techniques and circuits, without going into detail on discrete
devices. For examples, op-amp circuits are introduced first before the
semiconductor diodes and transistors. Similarly, the semiconductor diodes
are covered before the physics of pn-junctions.
Features:
¢ Introduces the characteristics, biasing techniques, and circuit
models of semiconductor devices.
¢ Provides basic analog electronic circuit design techniques and
analytical skills using diodes, op-amps, MOSFETs, and BJTs.
¢ Introduces students to the various elements of the engineering
design process, including formulation of specifications, analysis
of alternative solutions, synthesis, decision making, iterations,
consideration of cost factors, simulation, and tolerance issues.
¢ Enables students to design electronic circuits to meet desired
specifications.
¢ Helps to build problem solving skills of electronic circuits
