Electronic Devices and Circuits, Volume 2 provides a comprehensive coverage of the concepts involved in electronic devices and circuitries. The text first details the network theory, and then proceeds to covering electronics in the succeeding chapters. The coverage of the book includes transmission lines; high-frequency valves and transistors; amplifiers; oscillators; and multivibrator and trigger circuits. The text also covers several concerns in electronics, such as the physics of semiconductor devices; stabilization of power supplies; and feedback. The book will be of great use to students of electrical engineering and other electronics related degree.

This new text by Denton J. Dailey covers both discrete and integrated components. Among the many features that students will find helpful in understanding the material are the following: Concept icons in the margins signify that topical coverage relates to other fields and areas of electronics, such as communications, microprocessors, and digital electronics. These icons help the reader to answer the question, "Why is it important for me to learn this?" Key terms presented in each chapter are defined in the margins to reinforce students' understanding. Chapter objectives introduce each chapter and provide students with a roadmap of topics to be covered.

A revised edition which reflects the growing use of computer software and packaged IC units. It offers a detailed study of electronics devices and circuit theory. Divided into two parts, it covers the dc analysis and the ac or frequency response.

Designed for electronic devices courses using conventional flow at a technologist or technologist/technician level. A comprehensive overview of electronic devices, circuits, and applications aimed at technologist and technologist/technician programs. The Canadian edition addresses the unique needs of our market (assessed through extensive reviewing and focus groups), while retaining the strengths of the US edition, long one of the top books in the field.

This textbook for a one-semester course in Electrical Circuits and Devices is written to be concise, understandable, and applicable. Every new concept is illustrated with numerous examples and figures, in order to facilitate learning. The simple and clear style of presentation is complemented by a spiral and modular approach to the topic. This method supports the learning of those who are new to the field, as well as provides in-depth coverage for those who are more experienced. The author discusses electronic devices using a spiral approach, in which key devices such as diodes and transistors are first covered with simple models that beginning students can easily understand. After the reader has grasped the fundamental concepts, the topics are covered again with greater depth in the latter chapters.

PSpice for Circuit Theory and Electronic Devices is one of a series of five PSpice books and introduces the latest Cadence Orcad PSpice version 10.5 by simulating a range of DC and AC exercises. It is aimed primarily at those wishing to get up to speed with this version but will be of use to high school students, undergraduate students, and of course, lecturers. Circuit theorems are applied to a range of circuits and the calculations by hand after analysis are then compared to the simulated results. The Laplace transform and the s-plane are used to analyze CR and LR circuits where transient signals are involved. Here, the Probe output graphs demonstrate what a great learning tool PSpice is by providing the reader with a visual verification of any theoretical calculations. Series and parallel-tuned resonant circuits are investigated where the difficult concepts of dynamic impedance and selectivity are best understood by sweeping different circuit parameters through a range of values. Obtaining semiconductor device characteristics as a laboratory exercise has fallen out of favour of late, but nevertheless, is still a useful exercise for understanding or modelling semiconductor devices. Inverting and non-inverting operational amplifiers characteristics such as gain-bandwidth are investigated and we will see the dependency of bandwidth on the gain using the performance analysis facility. Power amplifiers are examined where PSpice/Probe demonstrates very nicely the problems of cross-over distortion and other problems associated with power transistors. We examine power supplies and the problems of regulation, ground bounce, and power factor correction. Lastly, we look at MOSFET device characteristics and show how these devices are used to form basic CMOS logic gates such as NAND and NOR gates.
