Microelectronic Circuits: Analysis & Design, 2nd Edition combines a "breadth-first" approach to teaching electronics with a strong emphasis on electronics design and simulation. Professor Rashid first introduces students to the general characteristics of circuits (ICs) to prepare them for the use of circuit design and analysis techniques. He then moves on to a more detailed study of devices and circuits and how they operate within ICs. This approach makes the text easily adaptable to both one- and two-term electronics courses. Student's gain a strong systems perspective, and can readily fill in device-level detail as the course (and their job) requires. In addition, Rashid, author of five successful texts on PSpice and power electronics, directly addresses student's needs for applying theory to real-world design problems by mastering the use of PSpice for testing and verifying their designs. More than 50% of the problems and examples in the text concentrate on design, with PSpice used extensively in the design problems.
Key Features
- Gives students a solid working appreciation for circuit design issues and processes, with numerous worked-out design examples, end-of-chapter design problems, with clearly outlined design guidelines and procedures.
- Provides a thorough introduction to the use of PSpice for testing, verification, and refinement of circuit designs.
- Includes text screen captures from OrCAD and PSpice-schematic capture.
- The "breadth first" approach introduces students to electronics at the circuit level before moving to the device level therefore making topic coverage more understandable and flexible.
- Numerous, worked-out examples and figures provide specific, applied illustrations of theoretical concepts.
- Mathematical derivations are kept to a minimum by using approximate circuit models of operational amplifiers, transistors, and diodes. The significance of these approximations is established by computer-aided analysis using PSpice.
- Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) and Key Points clearly indicate what students should know after reading the chapter and identify and assimilate the major ideas presented.
- Design Integration helps to develop the ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired ends.
- Worked out examples and PSpice Simulation and Verifications serve as a road map for the complete and effective program of learning that is presented.
- A Top-Down Approach to support one- or two-term Electronics Courses with a study of electronics at the circuit level, followed by the device level.
- An accompanying demonstration copy of Electronics Workbench with special working demo files keyed to Rashid's text problems is an additional study aid.
- Companion website provides links to OrCAD and PSpice schematic files downloads, and MathCad files for the worked out examples.
New to this edition
- New chapters on MOSFETs and amplifiers, as well as Semiconductors and PN Junctions.
- Increased emphasis on MOSFETS and active biasing techniques so that students can move easily to differential amplifiers and ICs.

- Complete revision of the chapter on BJTs.
- Integrated PSpice/OrCad software for both analysis and design verifications.
- Integrated MathCAD files for calculations of worked out examples so that students can try similar problems and explore the effects of design parameters.
