With the advances in the SemIConductor and communication industries, it has become increasingly
important for electrical engineers to develop a good understanding of microelectronics.
This book addresses the need for a text that teaches microelectronics from a modern and intuitive
perspective. Guided by my industrial, research, and academic experience, I have chosen
the topics, the order, and the depth and breadth so as to efficiently impart analysis and design
principles that the students will find useful as they enter the industry or graduate school.
