About the Author


Yannis Tsividis is Charles Batchelor Professor of Electrical Engineering at Columbia University. His work with MOS transistors began in 1975 as part of his Ph.D. work at the University of California, Berkeley, in the context of the design and fabrication of the first fully-integrated MOS operational amplifier. He is a Fellow of IEEE. Among his awards are the 1984 IEEE W. R. G. Baker Prize for the best IEEE publication and the 2003 IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference Outstanding Paper Award.

Colin McAndrew became involved with modeling semiconductor devices in 1987 and has contributed to the development of models for MOS, bipolar, and passive devices. He developed the backward-propagation-of-variation (BPV) technique for statistical modeling and has been a primary advocate of the use of Verilog-A and compilers for device modeling. He has a Ph.D. from the University of Waterloo, works at Freescale Semiconductor, and is a Fellow of the IEEE.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent addition to your library, November 24, 1999

Kurt Rasmussen (Torrance, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Operation & Modeling of the MOS Transistor (Hardcover)
I don't usually write reviews unless the book is either very poor or very good. This is one of the best books on my shelf. If you want to know the MOS transistor this is the book. Well researched, excellent explanations, excellent appendices. Other authors of technical books should use this as an example of how to write a good technical book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! Remarkable., October 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Operation & Modeling of the MOS Transistor (Hardcover)
Just reading the Preface to this book, I fell in love with the author. I completely agree that sometimes the most rigorous and careful treatment of a subject actually makes it possible to study the material faster!! What always frustrated me and slowed me down in reading other books was the sloppiness and hand waving. It's amazing that many Ph.Ds and even authors of famous books like Uyemura's "Fundamentals of MOS ICs" don't understand the simple body effect, and talk about complete nonsense showing a 2 terminal capacitor with Vb applied to the bulk, and saying that the Vt will now change by the sqrt(Vb) body effect. They don't understand that the body effect is a 3 terminal effect and in 2 terminals if you apply Vb to bulk then your Vt will have to increase by Vb--NOT sqrt(Vb)!!! This book is a delight. Just the material on contact potentials was worth the money.

If you are serious about really understanding MOSFETs, if you hate non-sense and hand waving, then this book is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just a masterpiece........, October 4, 2001
This review is from: Operation & Modeling of the MOS Transistor (Hardcover)
I am a graduate student with main area of interest in Mixed mode design,testing and device modelling.This book was suggested to me by my proffessor.It is the book for MOSFET.I have read many books on this topic like Tyagi,Foty,massobrio etc but this books stands apart.It is a very well written book.Its progress is very logical going from two terminal device to four terminal device with very good explanation of the physics.More importantly the emphasis on the approximations made makes things clearer.....

For a person working with Mosfets it is a must......
