DESCRIPTION

By helping students develop an intuitive understanding of the subject, Fundamentals of Microelectronics teaches them to think like

engineers.

The second edition of Razavi’s Fundamentals of Microelectronics retains its hallmark emphasis on analysis by inspection and

building students’ design intuition. It incorporates a host of new pedagogical features that make the book easy to teach and learn from,

including application sidebars; self-check problems with answers; simulation problems with SPICE and MULTISIM; and an expanded
problem set that is organized by degree of difficulty and clearly associated with specific chapter sections.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Behzad Razavi received the B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Sharif University of Technology in 1985, and the M.Sc.

and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford University in 1988 and 1992, respectively. He was with AT&T Bell

Laboratories and subsequently Hewlett-Packard Laboratories until 1996. He was also an Adjunct Professor at Princeton University

from 1992 to 1994. Since September 1996, Dr. Razavi has been an Associate Professor, and subsequently Professor, of the

Electrical Engineering Department at UCLA. He was the Chair of the Integrated Circuits and Systems field of study, and served as

Chair of the Department's Annual Research Review for two consecutive years.
Prof. Razavi is a member of the Technical Program Committees of Symposium on VLSI Circuits and the International Solid-State

Circuits Conference (ISSCC), in which he is the chair of the Analog Subcommittee. He has served as Guest Editor and Associate

Editor of the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems, and International Journal of High

Speed Electronics.

Prof. Razavi's current research includes wireless transceivers, frequency synthesizers, phase-locking and clock recovery for high-
speed data communications, and data converters.

NEW TO EDITION

• More real-world application examples for key concepts.

• More computational problems as well as the symbolic problems that are a Razavi hallmark.

• New application sidebars that show practical examples of theory in action.

• New self-check practice problems with answers provided.

• New simulation problems using PSPICE and MULTISIM.

• A clearer separation of problems by chapter section, with several basic, moderate and challenging problems in each section.

FEATURES

• Challenges students to develop the skills of analysis and synthesis in problem-solving.

• Utilizes an analysis by inspection approach in which students learn to ‘read’ complex circuits as variations and combinations of

simpler typologies. By mapping complex circuits to their simpler constituents, students can more efficiently analyze circuit behavior

than if they attempted to force the application of the equations they learned in their circuits course.

• Provides numerous problems that require symbolic, rather than numeric solutions, so that students are forced to address

problems conceptually, rather than as an exercise in calculation.
