"Electronic Concepts is a clear, self-contained introduction to modern microelectronics. Analog and digital circuits are stressed equally from the outset, and the applications of particular devices and circuits are described within the context of actual electronic systems. A combination of bottom-up and top-down approaches is used to integrate this treatment of devices, circuits, and systems." "The book contains over 500 circuit diagrams and figures, over 400 homework problems, and over 100 simulation and design exercises. It includes many worked examples and is an ideal textbook for introductory courses in electronics. It can also be used for self-study. Laboratory experiments related closely to the material covered in the book are available via the World Wide Web."--Jacket.
