Electronic devices, semiconductor chips and companies


Electronic equipment is manufactured using semiconductor chips and components supplied from a huge pool of industries and distributors. This is the Electronic Components Industry Association (ECIA).


Classic digital technologies Analogue chips and devices Companies and chip manufacturers

Basic electrical characteristics covered in CSD: L1.6: Voltage levels, transfer function and noise margins. L4.3: static and dynamic power consumption and propagation delay. 

Chapter 1 and 2 uses classic and PLD (CPLD/FPGA) chips. Chapter 3 covers an introduction to μC. Not covered in CSD: ASIC/ASSP/SOC /DSP /GPU/etc.

These are the main classic chip references.
