This market-leading textbook continues its standard of excellence and innovation built on the solid pedagogical foundation that instructors expect from Adel S. Sedra and Kenneth C. Smith. All material is thoroughly updated to reflect changes in technology-CMOS technology in particular. These technological changes have shaped the book's organization and topical coverage, making it the most current resource available for teaching tomorrow's engineers how to analyze and design electronic circuits. The "must-cover" topics are placed first in each chapter; the more specialized material appears last. The first five chapters, Part I, are organized to form a coherent single-semester introductory course. Similarly, the next four chapters, Part II, present a body of material for a second one-semester course. The final four chapters, Part III, contain significant topics that can be used as enhancements or substitutes for some of the material in earlier chapters as well as resources for project or thesis work. In the CD A free student version of PSpice 9.2 Lite Edition (SPICE simulator) and new industry-based design examples Input files for all SPICE examples in the book Bonus text material of specialized topics?GaAs devices and circuits, TTL circuits Key Features M Operational Amplifiers: Logarithmic and antilogarithmic amplifiers are now included. Also covered are analog multipliers, sample-and-hold circuits, and the current-controlled voltage source, voltage-controlled voltage source, and voltage-controlled current source, current controlled voltage source, and current-controlled current source configurations of the operational amplifier. MOSFETs: Constant-field and constant-voltage MOSFET scaling as well as short channel effects and recent scaling trends are now included. CMOS Circuits: AOI and OAI gates are now explained Tuned Amplifiers: Class C tuned amplifiers are now covered Oscillators: Ring, twin-T, Clapp, and Miller oscillators are now discussed Power Amplifiers: Transformer-coupled power amplifiers, class C and D power amplifiers as well as the class S amplifier have been discussed Passive components in analog circuits, active loads, as well as voltage references are now discussed.
