The book opens a magic miniature world of electronics to the reader. The book addresses what small means in terms of electronics and what clean means in terms of modern electronic technology. Consequently, the reader understands why the most advanced civilization of the ancient world – the Egyptians – was not capable to do electronics. The book also discusses functionalities of the low-voltage electronic components with the aim to implement them in electronic circuit design. At the same time, it also opens the space of electronic component design to the readers be it discrete or integrated. The book has an introduction section, 11 chapters, an appendix, index, and list of literature. Appendix A discusses a set of solved problems, Appendix B presents SPICE simulation examples, and Appendix C presents component numbering in marketing environment.
The basic structure of any electronic component is the p-n junction. Starting with basic physics, we end with a full characterization of it. The mathematical expression relating the current (as a dependent variable) and the voltage (as the controlling variable) is developed and physical meaning to the parameters is given. That is referred to as a model of the p-n junction. Special attention is paid to the dynamic behavior of the p-n junction by thorough modeling of his capacitances.
Based on that the semiconductor diode is introduced. Properties from an implementation point of view are discussed and practical values of the parameters including limitations of the implementation are given. Special attention is paid to the thermal and power dissipation aspects of the implementation. A wide family of diodes being specific by some of their property is described.
One may say that the same for the diode is done for the BJT, the JFET the MOSFET, and the metal–semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET). What is additional to the diode in the case of the transistors, their frequency domain behavior is discussed too.
Two additional chapters make this book specific. First, the subject of optoelectronics is discussed leading to a series of optoelectronic components such as the photodiode, the solar cell, the light emitting diode (LED), the laser diode, and the opto-coupler (or optoisolator). All these are structurally and functionally described. Second, the subject of magnetoelectronics is visited so that the semiconductor-based magnetoelectronic components are also described structurally and functionally. That includes magnetoresistor, magnetodiode, magneto-BJT, magneto-MOS, and, of course, Hall sensor.
