Reddit mentions: The best transistors books

I agree with fatangaboo, I think something like velocity saturation would explain this. A devices explanation would be as follows. At high enough fields your carriers start colliding with each other and their mean free path restricts maximum velocity, thus there is no longer a linear dependence between the field and the velocity (thereby changing the square to a linear dependence between field).

There is also the fact that for short channel devices there'll be drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL), which will result in the Vt changing. I'm not sure if your Vds+Vt accounts for this change in Vt. Most deep submicron modern design processes advise you not to base your design on Vth. I personally try and to the Gm/Id method. Tsividis is definitely a good book, if you want really deep device physics I guess you could try looking at the modular series on device physics ( http://www.amazon.com/Field-Effect-Devices-Volume-Edition/dp/0201122987/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_c ). Hope that helps.

Wow, OK. Agree about MS. There was also Crystal Fire about the birth of the transistor which told much the same story (although I can't imagine William Shockley would have been impressed). I'm sure you are right in that AT&T didn't want new things like touch phones, let alone cell phones. But I haven't seen much evidence that basic research is done by industry any more. Also, IBM did the same thing and wasn't broken up by government action but by competition. Also, there are only so many phone lines. Which makes the same argument that net neutrality needs to be a thing.

you're good man. But I know I'll need help.. I work two jobs, and try to have a social life, Oh, I don't know code/really don't have the time to learn. not that I wouldn't want to, there's just not enough time to learn enough to do everything even if I never slept.


I'd rather no-one know what exactly my evil plan is and what I'm doing until it's in their hands.


Open-source jake converter is not happening. it's no-ones business how I drive the individual stages the circuit, and nobody has any business changing the maximum or minimum values of anything related to, it'd be outright stupid to do so, and no offense intended. if you want to edit those, Skim through thousands of pages of datasheets while you're reading this book https://www.amazon.com/Electronic-Communication-Robert-L-Shrader/dp/0070571384 and Electronic Fundamentals for Technicians and https://www.amazon.com/Transistor-Handbook-Cletus-J-Kaiser/dp/0962852570 then spend hours on digikey looking for components that are electrically and psychically fit for the application, and read those datasheets as well when you do. I didn't do all of this in two weeks, but I've read those at some point, or most of, and I've used them for various formulas many times over. Anyone on here is more than welcome to do the same, they'll have the same opinion that it's idiotic for a complete open-source driver.
