Electron Devices and Circuits  (Paperback, Atul. P. Godse, Uday A. Bakshi)

The book covers all the aspects of theory, analysis, and design of Electron Devices and Circuits for the undergraduate course. The concepts of p-n junction devices, BJT, JFET, MOSFET, electronic devices including UJT, thyristors, IGBT, Amplifier circuits-BJT, JFET and MOSFET amplifiers, multistage and differential amplifiers, feedback amplifiers, and oscillators are explained comprehensively. The book explains various p-n junction devices, including diode, LED, laser diode, Zener diode, and Zener diode regulator. The different types of rectifiers are explained in support. The book covers the construction, operation, and characteristics of BJT, JFET, MOSFET, UJT, Thyristors - SCR, Diac and Triac, and IGBT. It explains the biasing of BJT, JFET, and MOSFET amplifiers, basic BJT, JFET, and MOSFET amplifiers with h-parameters and r-parameters equivalent circuits, multistage amplifiers, differential amplifiers, BiCMOS amplifier, single tuned amplifiers, neutralization methods, power amplifiers, and frequency response. Finally, the book incorporates a detailed discussion of the analysis of the current series, voltage series, current shunt, and voltage shunt feedback amplifiers. The book also includes the discussion of the Barkhausen criterion for oscillations and the detailed analysis of various oscillator circuits, including RC phase shift, Wien bridge, Hartley, Colpitt‘s, Clapp, and crystal oscillators. The book uses straightforward and lucid language to explain each topic. The book provides the logical method of describing the various complicated issues and stepwise methods to make understanding easy. The variety of solved examples is the feature of this book. The book explains the subject's philosophy, which makes understanding the concepts evident and makes the subject more interesting.
