Hi everyone, My subject basically revolves around diodes circuits and how to analyze them (AC, DC). What textbook do you recommend? (If there's one with many solved problems, that would be great.)

It is well known that in order to solve diode circuits we must assume state of diodes, replace diodes with appropriate model (0.7V voltage drop) and solve circuit. Then we check result and if it agrees with initial assumption, we successfully solved our circuit. If we mark number of diodes in...
