Preface
ic devices are crucial to the operation of modern society. They are
used to convert energy from mechanical or thermal to an electrical form that may be
easily transported over great distances; they can convert electrical energy into
mechanical work through the medium of an electric motor; and they can be used
to send and receive information around the globe. At this point in time, with issues
of energy efficiency and production costs being crucial to the ess of a product
and ing more important daily as a growing part of the world’s energy is
consumed by ic systems, designers of these systems need to both
understand and have access to effective design techniques and tools.
The basic theory underlying the operation of these devices was developed in the
eenth century and culminated in the work of Maxwell in 1873. The equation
