, Preface
This seventh edition of Electronic Devices has been carefully revised and some important new
topics have been added. Several recommendations from reviewers and current users have been
incorporated to make this edition better. A comprehensive coverage of electronic devices and
circuits, including troubleshooting and System Applications, is provided. Chapters 1 through
11 are essentially devoted to fundamental discrete devices and circuits. Chapters 12 through 18
primarily cover linear integrated circuits. Chapter 19 is a new chapter that is completely devoted
to programmable analog devices. Data sheets are introduced in certain areas to provide a prac-
tical connection with actual devices. Extensive exercises and problems using Multisim" circuit
simulation are designed to help students verify circuit theory and develop troubleshooting and
measurement skills. Referenced Multisim circuit files are on the CD packaged with this book.
New in This Edition
New on Programmable Devices Chapter 19 introduces field-
programmable analog arrays (FPAAs) and how to program them. Also, switched-capacitor
circuits are described because they are basic to FPAA technology.
Circuit-Action This feature is at the end of most chapters. It checks students' un-
derstanding of how changes in certain parameters affect the behavior of a circuit. Given a
specified change in one parameter, students determine the resulting effect (increase, de-
crease, no change) in another parameter or parameters.
lV/ore of High-intensity LEDs are introduced and a new section
on fiber optics has been added.
New Devices New sections on differential amplifiers and the IGBT (insulated gate bipo-
lar transistor) are now included.
Generai lmprovemen Obsolete devices have been replaced, text descriptions have been
reworded for greater clarity, and graphics have been enhanced in certain areas for better ap-
pearance or improved effectiveness.
Features
Full-color format
Two-page chapter openers containing a chapter outline, chapter objectives,
introduction, key term list, System Application preview, and web site reference.
The beginning of each section includes a brief introduction and objectives for the section.
Abundant worked-out examples, each with a related problem similar to that
illustrated in the example. Answers to related problems are at the end of the chapter.
Multisim simulation circuits for selected examples, problems, and troubleshooting
sections on the CD
Section Reviews with answers at the end of the chapter
A troubleshooting section in many chapters
A System Application at the end of most chapters
A typical chapter ends with a summary, key term glossary, key formulas, self-test,
and circuit-action quiz.
A problem set at the end of each chapter is divided by chapter sections, and
generally organized into basic and advanced problems. Additionally, many chapters
have categories of troubleshooting, data sheet, System Application, and Multisim
troubleshooting.
