The properties and characteristics of the semiconductor components used in analog integrated circuits (AICs) and discrete circuits are described in this chapter. These include the various types of diodes, bipolar junction transistors (BJTs), and various kinds of field-effect transistors (FETs). As a biomedical engineer, you probably will never be called upon to design circuits with or use discrete transistors, with the possible exception of power transistors. Instead, modern analog electronic systems use integrated circuits. To appreciate the behavior ...
