Fundamentals of Microelectronics

by Behzad Razavi

To succeed in the practice of microelectronics in industry, students must develop the ability to think intuitively about circuits. They need to move beyond simply plugging and chugging numbers in equations and be prepared to face real design trade-offs. Fundamentals of Microelectronics, Preview Edition helps students develop intuitive techniques so they can design and implement circuits not just analyze them. Using many real-word examples and applications, the text motivates the student to understand the importance of today's microelectronics.

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.
