MENEGHESSO ZENARI ZANONI - Microelectronics - Numerical Exercises and Solved Problems

• CONTENTS

The material collected in this book contains a large selection of the exercises proposed during the Microelectronics course of the Master Electronic Engineering degree program at the University of Padua. The topics on which the exercises are based range from the fundamental properties of semiconductors to the physical behavior and electrical models of key devices, that is, pn junctions, Schottky diodes, and, finally, Field-Effect Transistors (FETs). The objective of the text is to guide the student in solving the proposed exercises, encouraging reasoning about the properties of the devices and understanding their operation. In the final part of the exercise book, we propose unsolved exercises from past exams, where only numerical solutions are provided. Additionally, there are quizzes aimed at assessing the theoretical knowledge acquired during the course.

Michele Zenari obtained the Ph.D. degree in Information Engineering from the University of Padua in February 2024. He organized the exercise sessions for the Microelectronics course.

Enrico Zanoni has held the position of Full Professor since 1993 in the Department of Information Engineering at the University of Padua, Italy. Currently, he teaches in the Microelectronics course which is part of the Electronic Engineering program.

Gaudenzio Meneghesso has been a Full Professor at the University of Padua since 2011. He is currently the head of the Department of Information Engineering at the University of Padua.
