Abstract
Studying this chapter should enable you
-
â–¡ To consolidate your understanding of the electrical characteristics of the bipolar transistor and its use as a switch.
-
â–¡ To understand the difference between saturated and non-saturated switching of the bipolar transistor.
-
â–¡ To distinguish between the most commonly used bipolar digital circuits forms, TTL, STL, ECL and others, in order to appreciate the operation of bipolar cell library circuits used in semi-custom IC design.
-
â–¡ To compare the performance of all types of bipolar and MOS digital circuit forms for use in ICs.
-
â–¡ To appreciate the advantages of BiCMOS circuits containing both MOS and bipolar transistors.
