SiO2: 3.9 ZrOx: ~20
What is covered in ENGIN 365? • Diodes • Bipolar Junction Transistors • Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-effect Transistors • Operational Amplifiers
Circuit Design: What Professionals Do • Minimize use of expensive components • Maximize circuit robustness, making them • Insensitive to component selection • Insensitive to their operating environment • Recognize that semiconductor devices: • Are highly nonlinear in their behavior • Are sensitive to temperature • Vary in performance from device to device
Circuit Design: How to • Preliminary design: “back of the envelope” exercise • Simulation: using theoretical models for real components (SPICE) • Designs are implemented and tested • Process generally iterative
Sample Exercise: “back of the envelope design” Wall Power 60 Hz 120 Vrms Convert to DC and Limit to 5V LED and Driver Circuit Multivibrator Circuit
