Electronic Concepts: An Introduction.

KRENZ, JERROLD H.

43377X1 First Edition (Unstated. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge: 2000. 454 pages. Hardcover, no dustjacket. Brand new book. Provides a detailed introduction to modern microelectronics. Jerrold Krenz emphasizes analog and digital circuits, and describes applications of particular devices and circuits within the context of actual electronic systems. He begins with an overview of several important electronic systems, and discusses in detail the types of signals that circuits are used to process. The following chapters deal with individual devices. For each device Krenz presents a brief physical description and demonstrates the use of different models in describing the device's behavior in a particular circuit application. He uses SPICE computer simulations throughout the text to supplement analytic descriptions. The book contains over 500 circuit diagrams and figures, over 400 homework problems, and over 100 simulation and design exercises. Laboratory experiments are available via the World Wide Web. With its many worked examples, the volume is an ideal textbook for introductory courses in electronics. The contents of the book is as follows: 1. Electronic systems: a century of progress; 2. The semiconductor junction diode: the basis of modern electronics; 3. The bipolar junction transistor: an active electronic device; 4. The metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor: another active device; 5. Negative feedback and operational amplifiers; 6. Electronic power supplies; Appendix A. Fabrication of integrated circuits; Appendix B. The design process. "...an ideal resource...thoroughly comprehensive, well-written work...highly recommended..." -Choice ISBN: 0521662826 $70.00USD
