Fundamentals of Microelectronics, 2nd Edition

by Behzad Razavi

By helping students develop an intuitive understanding of the subject, Fundamentals of Microelectronics teaches them to think like engineers. The second edition of Razavi’s Fundamentals of Microelectronics retains its hallmark emphasis on analysis by inspection and building students’ design intuition, and it incorporates a host of new pedagogical features that make it easier to teach and learn from, including: application sidebars, self-check problems with answers, simulation problems with SPICE and MULTISIM, and an expanded problem set that is organized by degree of difficulty and more clearly associated with specific chapter sections.

I have read sedra-smith,gray-hurst and now razavi.I found the last one by far the best book to understand microelectronics. Although it hasn't the reputation of the sedra-smith book,It has more practical problems and gives a good intuition into how microelectronics circuits work.

Excellent complementary textbook on transistor circuits

[Justin Cheung · Rating 5 out of 5]

Beautifully well-balanced read. As someone who never understood transistors from a purely physical treatment, this book's circuit theoretic approach focused on reasonable approximation justified with strong connections to easily-understood applications was a godsend. It was a highlight of my time as an undergraduate to finally simulate a practical voltage amplifier system under reasonable input/output-oriented constraints using the tools this book provides. This is the best book I read in my electrical engineering education, and I would recommend it to any electrical engineer!

The easiest to understand book on electronics.

If seemed too hard, just ignore device physics chapters and jump straight to circuit analysis.
