This textbook describes in detail the fundamental information about the 8051 microcontroller and it carefully teaches readers how to use the microcontroller to make both electronics hardware and software.

This book describes in detail the semiconductor physics and the effects of the high temperatures and ionizing radiations in the electrical behavior of the Metal-OxideSemiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs), implemented with the first and second generations of the differentiated layout styles. The authors demonstrate a variety of innovative layout styles for MOSFETs, enabling readers to design analog and RF MOSFETs that operate in a high-temperature wide range and an ionizing radiation environment with high electrical performance and reduced die area.
