This PowerPoint presentation is provided by Maricopa Advanced Technology Education Center (MATEC) and defines semiconductors and shows basic atomic structures. The presentation also summarizes types of semiconductor materials; introduces PN junctions, diodes, and integrated circuits; and gives an overview of the concept of a transistor and how it is used in electronics.
Student learning outcomes for this presentation include:
- Define active and passive components.
- Name three main categories of active semiconductor devices.
- Name the two elements of a diode and state the primary operational characteristics of a diode.
- Define bias and name the two types of bias and their effects on diode operation.
- Explain the concept of a transistor.
- Explain how a transistor can switch or amplify.
- Define integrated circuit.
