The unit introduces the fundamental concepts of modern electronics based on semiconductor devices. On completion of this unit you will be able to design amplifier circuits with feedback. Beginning with the basic atomic structure of doped silicon substrates, diode construction, operations and characteristic curves are introduced, leading to DC and AC analysis. This is expanded to quiescent point...
