Textbook On Semiconductors
An Introduction to the Wide World of Semiconductor Electronics, The Backbone of Nearly Every Electronic Device Used Today

First Edition
Author:
NJATC

Semiconductor technology is the backbone in nearly every electronic device we use, and this book serves as an introduction to the wide world of electronics for the electrical profession.

It provides the necessary background required to understand the concepts and theory associated with semiconductors, an essential component in the proper installation and maintenance of electrical systems.

Coverage examines the basics of the most commonly used semiconductor devices today, as well as common troubleshooting concepts for working with these systems.

Readers are given the essential building blocks that will lead to a complete understanding of all aspects of semiconductor electronics, from the bipolar junction transistor and electronic amplifier, to fiber optics and optical transfer data, communication systems such as radio and television, and more.

Features:

  • a healthy mixture of theory supported by graphic representations, examples, and mathematical problems gives readers the knowledge to aid in the installation and maintenance of semiconductor based systems
  • introduces the number systems underlying modern computers such as the decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal
  • teaches how a computer is used to add, subtract, multiply, and divide in the various number systems
  • examines the fundamentals and operation of the three most common digital devices in use today – the silicon controlled rectifier (SCR), the triac, and the diac
  • covers the NE555 timer, one of the mainstays in electronic timing circuits that is critical to anyone moving on to explore industrial controls
  • focuses on the electronics of the construction and maintenance industry
  • introduces the microprocessor – the heart of the modern digital computer
