Electronic Devices

This unit introduces us to semiconductor electronics. We will learn about the types of semiconductors, diodes, and the bipolar junction transistor. It explains how to solve problems on logic gates. It also describes De Morgan????s Theorem.

The chapter describes the formation of p-n junction diodes. We will study the flow of current in p-n junction diode along with its characteristics. It covers the concept of rectifiers and half and full-wave rectifiers. It explores different types of diodes.

We will understand the concept of junction transistors in this chapter. It describes the working of various types of transistors as well as their characteristics. We will also study the concept of transistors as an amplifier through diagrams.

We will discuss the concept of logic gates here. The chapter illustrates the discrete and integrated circuits. It explains various electronic signals. We will also study the different types of gates with their structures and the combination of gates.
