Editorial Reviews:

In the Third Edition of their bestselling design-oriented treatment of discrete and integrated circuits, Sedra & Smith anticipate future trends in the teaching of core electronics to electrical and computer engineering students. A major reorganization of the material enables students to get to the heart of the subject much more quickly. And for instructors, the text--now divided into three parts--is more flexible than ever before, allowing maximum latitude in course design. It includes over 800 end-of-chapter problems covering all topics with a graded level of difficulty. Covered are the latest circuit technologies of BiCMOS and Gallium-Arsenide (GaAs), data converters, and memory. Material on power-supply design, filters, and oscillators has been expanded.

Summary: good condition and great product
Comment: I wont recommend to buy this since this is an older edition. Many things in this book has been changed and you wont be able to follow the class if you are using this, especially if the professor is very advanced.

Summary: a good reference text but not good for intro course
Comment: this book is thick and covers a lot of topics quite in-depth, definitely not very good book to start with on microelectronics, but it does make a good ref text!

Summary: Not for a beginner
Comment: This book is written with the big assumption that the reader is quite versed in the topic already and is very sophisticated in math manipulations to get the results that Sedra ends up with !

Well for a beginner student intersted in this topic this is a book that he or she would struggle with for sure!

But this is the common problem with tech writers who use information and formulas that they never first explain and then assume the reader already knows the material being presented. This is why tech writers rarely get the Pulitzer Prize in writing !

Could Sedra correct this flaw ?

Sure, but often these authors are so set in their ways that it is a struggle even to bring it up to them, so the only answer to new students in the field is to keep searhing for texts that do meet the student half way at least.

Summary: good....not great
Comment: I had to get it for a class but i wouldn't get it on my own. The book lacks explainations and examples that would normaly be expected in this level of a book.

Summary: Delayed my process
Comment: I purchased the item and my credit card was charged, then a few days later I received a letter saying they no longer had any in stock (apparently they sold more copies than they had available) and my money was refunded. This delayed my process.
