This companion to Fundamentals of Solid-State Electronics provides a helpful summary of the main text for students and lecturers alike. The clear typeface, large font, and point form layout, are designed to produce viewgraphs for lectures and to provide ample margins for study notes.
This Study Guide comes complete with a detailed description of two one-semester solid-state electronics core courses, taught to about 80–100 sophomore-junior students each time, four years apart. It links the contents of the one-semester lecture course to the textbook.
This book is also available as a set with Fundamentals of Solid-State Electronics and Fundamentals of Solid-State Electronics — Solution Manual.
