From the origins of the semiconductor industry right up until today, this book serves as a technical primer to semiconductor technology. Spanning design and manufacturing to the basic physics of electricity, it provides a comprehensive base of understanding from transistor to iPhone. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMelding an accessible, conversational style with over 100 diagrams and illustrations, \u003ci\u003eUnderstanding Semiconductors\u003c\/i\u003e provides clear explanations of technical concepts going deep enough to fully explain key vernacular, mechanisms, and basic processes, without getting lost in the supporting theories or the theories that support the supporting theories. Concepts are tethered to the real world with crisp analysis of industry dynamics and future trends. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs a break from the straight-ahead scientific concepts that keep the world of semiconductors spinning, \u003ci\u003eUnderstanding Semiconductors\u003c\/i\u003e is liberally sprinkled with apt analogies that elucidate difficult concepts. For example, when describing the relationship between voltage, current, power, and the flow of electricity through an electronic system, the book draws a parallel to a hot shower and the water utility system. Most of these are paired with clear visuals, giving you the best chance possible to absorb the concept at hand before moving on to the next topic. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhether you're narrowly technical or don't know silicon from silly putty, working directly in hardware technologies and want to know more, or simply a curious person seeking hard information about the technology that powers the modern world, Understanding Semiconductors will be an informative, dependable resource. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhat You'll Learn: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Charge, Electricity, and Basic Physics \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e What are Semiconductors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Semiconductor Value Chain and Design Trade-Offs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Transistors and Other Common Circuit Building Blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Semiconductor Design from Concept to Tapeout \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Wafer Fabrication and Semiconductor Manufacturing Process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Integrated Circuit (IC) Packaging and Signal \u0026amp; Power Integrity (SIPI)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Common Circuits and System Components \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e RF and Wireless Technologies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e System Architecture and Integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Semiconductor Industry - Challenges, History, and Trends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Future of Semiconductors and Electronic Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e People working directly in the semiconductor, electronics, and hardware technologies fields or in supporting industries, hobbyists and new electrical engineering enthusiasts with minimal technical experience or pre-existing qualifications, and curious individuals interested in learning more about a fascinating area of technology.
