Modern Electronics Guidebook: A readable overview / Edition 1

by Michael N. Kozicki

Overview

This is a guide to the history, principles, manufacture, and applications of integrated circuits (ICs). It covers the elementary physics of semiconductors, and addresses practical issues crucial to the industry, including IC production techniques and facilities, processing, testing and packaging of chips, and reliability problems. Non-mathematical descriptions of complex topics such as silicon ICs can be easily understood by non-specialists.

Editorial Reviews

For marketing and purchasing managers, engineers, and students seeking a practical review and reference on current microelectronic technology, this highly-headable volume briefly looks at the history of technology, and then covers the basic physics of electronic materials, describes the properties of the materials themselves, discusses basic device action, and describes how devices are made. The bulk of the device discussion is centered around transistors--the most important building blocks in modern circuits. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
