Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com Microelectronic Circuits, Fourth Edition is an extensive revision of the classic text by Adel S. Sedra and K. C. Smith. The primary objective of this text remains the development of the student's ability to analyze and design electronic circuits, both analog and digital, discrete and integrated. Fundamental developments in modern technology, particularly the increased emphasis on integrated circuits and the profusion of advances in digital electronics, require that engineers today be aptly equipped with knowledge of these concepts and techniques. In this edition, the authors present these concepts and techniques earlier on in the text and in greater detail than in previous editions. Features A Digital Electronics Emphasis This edition fully integrates the fundamental concepts of digital electronics into the first five chapters, and also devotes two complete chapters (13 and 14) to digital electronics at the end of the text. These provide a complete introduction to both analog and digital principles for a modern introductory course on microelectronic circuits. The MOSFET The material on MOSFET has been entirely rewritten to reflect the shift toward integrated circuit technology and the vast number of changes in MOS IC design. Device Physics...Just in Time Sedra/Smith integrates device physics into the chapters as needed and where appropriate. SPICE: Not just how, but why and when SPICE has been incorporated not only at the end of the appropriate device chapters, but also at the end of most chapters throughout the text. A Complete Support Package New CD! Now with KC's Problems and Solutions, which contains 600 problems and solutions for student practice. Also includes Interactive Examples, EDN Design Ideas, and Electronics Workbench Multisim 6, with 30 demo circuits and 100 additional circuits for use with the full or student versions. The CD runs on Windows with minimal memory requirements. ** World Wide Web site http://www.sedrasmith.org with: * SPICE Models * Component Data Sheets * Worked examples with problem-solving hints * Free, downloadable circuits that use Electronics Workbench * Links to industry and academic sites of related interest ** SPICE, 2/e by Gordon Roberts and Adel Sedra (0-19-510842-6) ** Instructor's Manual with Transparency Masters (0-19-511769-7) ** Two-color Transparency Masters of 200 selected figures from the text (0-19-511770-0) ** KC's Problems and Solutions for Microelectronic Circuits, 4/e, by KC Smith (0-19-511771-9) ** Laboratory Explorations for Microelectronic Circuits, 4/e, by KC Smith (0-19-511772-7) ** PowerPoint Overheads available on CD-ROM (0-19-513980-1)and online at www.sedrasmith.org good condition and great product | Customer Rating: | | I wont recommend to buy this since this is an older edition. Many things in this book has been changed and you wont be able to follow the class if you are using this, especially if the professor is very advanced. | a good reference text but not good for intro course | Customer Rating: | | this book is thick and covers a lot of topics quite in-depth, definitely not very good book to start with on microelectronics, but it does make a good ref text! | Not for a beginner | Customer Rating: | This book is written with the big assumption that the reader is quite versed in the topic already and is very sophisticated in math manipulations to get the results that Sedra ends up with !
Well for a beginner student intersted in this topic this is a book that he or she would struggle with for sure!
But this is the common problem with tech writers who use information and formulas that they never first explain and then assume the reader already knows the material being presented. This is why tech writers rarely get the Pulitzer Prize in writing !
Could Sedra correct this flaw ?
Sure, but often these authors are so set in their ways that it is a struggle even to bring it up to them, so the only answer to new students in the field is to keep searhing for texts that do meet the student half way at least.
Gerard J Sagliocca, P.E. gerard_sagliocca@yahoo.com | good....not great | Customer Rating: | | I had to get it for a class but i wouldn't get it on my own. The book lacks explainations and examples that would normaly be expected in this level of a book. | Delayed my process | Customer Rating: | | I purchased the item and my credit card was charged, then a few days later I received a letter saying they no longer had any in stock (apparently they sold more copies than they had available) and my money was refunded. This delayed my process. |
