The length of the chapters are almost the same, and it is easy for the instructors to design a course using this book. The terminologies in this book are the common ones that are used in other books and in industry.Įach chapter discusses one dedicated topic, and it is easy for the readers to focus on the content. The parameter names, their units, and their typical values are listed under some of the equations. Some variable names are listed in Chapter 1 and they are used through the book. It demonstrates the applications with example problems and computer simulation results. It explains the theory and models with mathematical equations and figures. This book introduces the basic concepts with clear definitions and terminologies. The example semiconductor devices might be discontinued by the manufacturers, as the new models will replace the old ones. They are not likely to be discarded in the near future. The semiconductor devices that are discussed in this book are the popular ones in industry. For example, the link to the datasheet of 1N4148 is invalid now (as December 2021). However, these links might be removed any time. Some web links are included in this book for the readers to explore the details of some content. The features and applications of the semiconductor devices are descripted accurately by the text, the equations, and the graphics in this book.

These are the basic devices that are used in industry and they should be covered in an introductory semiconductor or electronic course. This book discusses the features and applications of the fundamental semiconductor devices such as diodes, bipolar junction transistors, junction field effect transistors, metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, and insulated gate bipolar transistors.
