Electronics: Technology Fundamentals Christopher Gunn

Electronics is a branch of physics and engineering. It is concerned with the development and application of devices and systems that involve the flow and control of electrons. The movement of electrons can occur in matter and vacuum or in semiconductors. Electrical circuits that are designed from different active and passive electrical components are studied in this field. Active components include transistors, diodes, etc. Passive components are resistors, inductors, capacitors, etc. Most electronic devices use semiconductors today. Some of the branches of electronics are analog electronics, digital electronics, microelectronics, optoelectronics, integrated circuits, etc. Circuits and components used in electronics can be analog or digital. This book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of electronics. Most of the topics introduced herein cover new techniques and applications of this field. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
