Good resources to practice transistor amplifiers?

In summary, the conversation is about finding resources for practicing calculations for current/voltage gains and input/output resistances in BJT and MOSFET amplifier circuits. The person recommends the Schaum's Outline "Electronic Devices and Circuits" and also suggests checking out old transistor manuals from the 1960s. They also mention purchasing a reference book from eBay.

Hey guys this isn't so much a homework question as it is a learning question. Any good resources online that could help me practice calculating current/voltage gains as well as input/output resistances for BJT and MOSFET amplifier circuits? I can't really find any resources that give me problems + solutions.

Thanks in advanced!

I really like the Schaum's Outline "Electronic Devices and Circuits". Lots of worked problems. It's kind of old fashioned being paper and all.

see also GE transistor manuals from 1960's
