Electronic Principles continues its tradition as a clearly explained, in-depth introduction to the electronic principles of semiconductor devices, circuits, and systems. Written in an easy-to-read conversational style, semiconductor devices and circuits are explored, including practical applications where they are found.

Electronic Principles'subject matter includes updated semiconductor devices and systems including emerging wide bandgap power FETs and an introduction to Industry 4.0. Circuit operation and troubleshooting techniques are'brought to life'with Multisim circuit simulation files found within Connect.

Chapter 1, “Introduction,” sets the framework for the rest of the textbook. While some of the topics will be a review, this chapter is used to ensure all students understand the fundamentals of voltage sources, current sources, Thevenin’s theorem, and Norton’s theorem and introduces the use of approximations as applied to electronics. Troubleshooting concepts are reviewed and expanded on with dc and ac troubleshooting techniques examined.

Chapters 2 through 10 cover the basics of semiconductor structure, diode theory, diode circuits with power supply applications, special-purpose diodes including the zener diode, optoelectronic devices, the bipolar junction transistor (BJT) introduction, BJT biasing, and BJT amplifiers, along with multistage and BJT power amplifiers.

Chapters 11 through 13 investigate field effect transistors (FETs) and thyristors. This includes device characteristics, circuits, and applications of junction field effect transistors (JFETs) and MOSFETs, along with an introduction to wide bandgap (WBG) power transistors using gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC). The concepts of power half-bridge and H-bridge circuits are also explained. Included in the thyristors topics are SCRs, diacs, triacs, UJTs, and IGBTs.

Chapters 14 through 17 cover amplifier frequency response, Bode plots, bandwidth, basic differential amplifier concepts, the electrical characteristics and behavior of operational amplifiers (op amps), and concepts of negative feedback.

Chapters 18 through 22 explore op-amp applications. Included are linear op-amp applications, active filters, nonlinear op-amp applications, oscillators, and regulated power supplies.
