The venerable vacuum tube has retired. Semiconductor devices now form the core of the ongoing electronics revolution and serve as the indispensable basis of most electronic designs.
From semiconductor materials to their failure modes, from the simplest diodes to state-of-the-art image display devices, Semiconductor Devices and Circuits presents a complete overview of semiconductor technology. It emphasizes practical information and applications in an easy-to-use format ideal for everyday use by engineers, technicians, and students.
With chapters contributed by an international panel of experts, this reference provides complete descriptions of the semiconductor devices central to the electronics industry-without the bulk of the larger, more general handbooks. Beyond its background material, device descriptions, and circuit models, Semiconductor Devices and Circuits also contains a section featuring essential material properties, conversion factors, standards, and mathematical tables. The end result is a convenient, self-contained resource needed on the desk or bookshelf of every electronics specialist and student.
