Electronic Devices Cheatsheet

Cheat Codes & Shortcuts

  • Semiconductor: Material with conductivity between conductor and insulator.
  • Diode Equation: \( I = I_s (e^{V_D / (n V_T)} - 1) \), where \( I_s \) is saturation current.
  • BJT Regions: Active, Saturation, Cut-off.
  • MOSFET Types: Enhancement and Depletion modes.
  • Ohm’s Law: \( V = I R \), applies to resistive elements.
  • PN Junction: Formed by P-type and N-type semiconductors.
  • Transistor Gain: \( \beta = I_C / I_B \) for BJT in active mode.
  • Capacitor Impedance: \( Z_C = \frac{1}{j \omega C} \).
  • Inductor Impedance: \( Z_L = j \omega L \).
  • Op-Amp Golden Rules: No current into inputs, virtual short in negative feedback.

Quick Reference Table

Device Key Property Application

Inductor Stores magnetic energy, \( V = L \frac{d i}{d t} \) Filters, Transformers

Advice

Identify Device Type: Determine if it’s a diode, transistor, or passive component first.

Check Operating Region: For transistors, confirm active, saturation, or cut-off mode.

Use KVL/KCL: Apply Kirchhoff’s laws for circuit analysis.

Understand Feedback: For op-amps, analyze negative or positive feedback effects.

Verify Parameters: Always check device ratings (e.g., voltage, current) before use.

Electronic Devices Quick Tips

  • Diodes: Forward bias allows current; reverse bias blocks it.
  • BJT Analysis: Use \( I_E = I_B + I_C \), and \( \beta \) for amplification.
  • MOSFET Operation: Check gate voltage relative to threshold voltage \( V_{th} \).
  • Op-Amp Circuits: Assume virtual short and zero input current for ideal analysis.
  • Passive Components: Use impedance formulas for capacitors and inductors in AC circuits.
