Reseñas
Principales reseñas sobre DIODE - PN JUNCTION AND METAL SEMICONDUCTOR CONTACT
por SK25 de ago. de 2019
Lectures are very informative, and the quiz questions truly test the way person reasons and determines solution to given operating conditions for junction contacts.
por CK29 de jun. de 2020
THE CONCEPTS WERE SIMPLE AND NO COMPLEX TERMINOLOGY IS USED, BUT PROBLEMS IN QUIZ FROM SEEK 3 & 4 ,WERE DIFFICULT TO SOLVE JUST FROM LISTENING TO THE LECTURES.
por E19 de mar. de 2020
The quizzes are quite difficult. All the subjects are so advance. but over all, it was great experience.
por SM18 de jun. de 2020
Good course but not self sufficient. One must read books in parallel to pass the homework problems.
