Overview

An introduction to electronic devices and circuits. Solid state physics and semiconductor fundamentals. Properties of p-n junctions in diodes, Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJT) and Field Effect Transistors (FET); static and dynamic models for these devices; and their linear and nonlinear applications. Applications of transistors in the design of amplifiers and digital systems. Ideal operational amplifiers characteristics and applications. Fabrication and the design of integrated circuits.

Prerequisites
