(ON)
VTH=300mV to 500 mV
Free electrons appear at VG=VTH.
Positive charges repel the holes
creating a depletion region, a region free of holes.

Equivalent Circuit
Small Signal Model
(NPN)
(PNP)
Statements that are always true for both NPN and PNP.
1. rπ is between B and E.
2. the direction of the dependent current source always points
from the collector to emitter.
3. ro is always between B and C.
Small Signal Analysis
1. Replace each ideal DC voltage source with a
small signal ground.
2. Replace each ideal DC current source with an
open circuit.
3. Replace each transistor by its small signal model
4. Analyze the small signal equivalent circuit.
Voltage Source
RS should be ~0 for
a good battery!
Replace the DC
voltage Source
with a short to
ground.
Current Source
RS should be infinity for a
good current source!

Textbook
• Required Text: Behzad Razavi,
“Fundamentals of Microelectronics”,
Wiley, 1st edition. (ISBN-13: 978-0-47147846-1)
• Reminder: ES330 is a 2-unit course
requiring an average of 6-8 hours of
study per week!
Course Policies
• Regarding classroom conduct
• Regarding homework, exams and
Piazza
Grading
• Three exams
– (total: 40 %. Exam #1=20 %, final=20 %)
• Class participation
– (total: 10 %. Attendance=5%, participate in active learning
exercises both in class and out of class=5%)
• Supplemental assignments
– (total: 5 %. Supplemental assignments consist of videos,
articles, and other forms of exercises design to stimulate
students’ interest in semiconductor industry)
• Homework assignment:
– 25 %
• Project
– 20%
Classroom Participation
• Examples of exercises
– You are given a blank sheet of paper,
and asked to respond a brief question.
You will not be graded.
– You maybe asked to present the solution
you have worked on in class.
– You maybe asked to summarized other
students’ response
– You maybe asked to complete
anonymous survey about the course
Supplemental Assignment
• Focus
– History of Silicon valley
– Engineers’ reflection of their career
– Talks given by some interesting characters
• Format: video/articles
Homework
• 20 % of the final grade
– Problems in each assignment are graded
selectively.
– Effort based.
– Each assignment can take on an average six
hours to complete
– Please start your assignment early. Do not wait till
the last minute
– Post your questions on Piazza
Homework Tips
• Try to attack the problems from different angles
– Ask the what if questions
• Summarize the question in your own words.
• “I am stuck because …..”
• “This problem frustrates me because….”
• “Here is what I do not understand…..”
• “Here is what I know about this problem….”
• Be self-critical. Be suspicious of assumptions that
you considered to be true.
• Be disciplined. If you are truly stuck, move on and
come back to work on the question.
Helpful practices for better
grades
• Before class
– Download the lecture notes from the website and review
them
– Make a list of questions that you want to ask
– Make use of instructor’s office hour
• In class
– Stay awake and listen actively
– Participate in exercises
– Take notes. Make a mental list on what is confusing to you.
• After class
–
–
–
–
Set aside a time to study.
Review the notes . Use the textbook as a reference.
Do assignments/homework before the deadline
Post questions on Piazza
Important Dates
• 9/3 last day to drop a course with
adjusted fees (done on-line)
• 9/4-15: drop with a “W” (done on-line)
• 9/16-11/13: petition to withdraw from a
class with $20 administrative fee
(dropping classes permitted because
of serious and compelling reasons)
