I would strongly recommend getting a book. The best one I've
seen on transistors is probably Malvino's textbook, Electronic
Principles. I had the 3rd edition (on long-term loan from my
university library; I don't have it anymore), and I remember
it having some very very good, thorough, and
easy-to-understand chapters on transistors.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr">If you watch the introductory video, I believe
Aaron explains the prerequisites, including suggestions of his
own videos and also Coursera classes "Linear Circuits 1: DC
Analysis" and "Linear Circuits 2: AC Analysis". Then he says you
should follow that up with her class "Introduction to
Electronics". I was intending to follow along as he released
these videos, but have not been able to set aside the time
unfortunately.</div>

thanks a lot for making this available.<br>
I emailed you a while back, but maybe the message got lost. Is
this<br>
set of lectures good for someone as an introduction to
semiconductors,<br>
or would some prerequisites be missing?<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>

> The first set of lectures are recycled; they review op
amp circuits. The next set is on superposition with dependent
sources (it turns out you can deactivate the dependent
sources, unlike what the books say, you just have to be
careful how to do it). The main course proper starts with the
lectures at the bottom of the list specifically labeled
“ECE3400 Lecture Whatever.” Lectures 2-4 are on diodes; 5-7 on
BJTs; 7-9 on BJT biasing; 10-12 on Thevenin & Norton
equivalents looking into the terminals of the BJT small signal
model (important concept in the particular way I teach the
material), 13-15 on the common single-transistor amplifier
types, and 16-18 on multistage amplifiers… with more to come!<br>
