great electronics reference book

The book is a timeless electronics reference of basic and advanced knowledge of op-amps and other comparators

Classic.

Certainly, one of the best books if u ever want to learn the theory of electronics.Most of the other books are pale shadows of this book. Not for the faint-hearted however as this requires a superb grasp of physics and maths. Quite dated now though but thetheory of transistors has not changed too! Does have a theoretical bias though. A co-requisite would be a book in circuit analysis.

The better book for me

This is a great textbook that our teachers call the "Bible."The authors first discuss the soul of a semiconductor -- silicon, its physical and chemical properties. The authors also talk about basic electronic circuits, such as Thevenin's and Norton's Equations, and microelectronic devices, such as diodes and transistors. The text is easy to understand for beginners of microelectronics.Later on in the text the authors spend several chapters on Integrated Circuits(IC); they explain in detail the fundamental relationship between logic circuits and microelectronic circuits. They also apply concepts of logic to logic circuits, and in the process take the readers into the world of microelectronics.It is a pity, however, that this book does not talk about microelectronic devices such as light emitted diodes(LED), and logic circuit applications such as seven-segment displays. But this is the most widely used textbook in our school, and it is most popular amongst our teachers. And thus I choose this book.

A Good Reference Book

This book is a good resource for individuals who already have some background in the subject. I wouldn't recommend it for bignners. The authors wanted to put everything about electronics in one volume; producing quite a big volume that is not very appealing to new students in the feild. I didn't like the way problems were organized; they were all put together at the end of the book. This book, though, seems to be of more use to practicing engineers/techncians.

This book is great for electronic engineers

I'm teaching electronics in an university in Sonora, Mexico. I'm using this book to solve some electronic problems. It's great. An electronic engineer must have it with him.
