Book Description

Publication Date: December 31, 1992 | ISBN-10: 0792392884 | ISBN-13: 978-0792392880 | Edition: 1

This volume of Analog Circuit Design concentrates on three topics: Operational Amplifiers. A-to-D converters and Analog CAD. The book comprises six papers on each topic written by internationally recognised experts. These papers have a tutorial nature aimed at improving the design of analog circuits. The book is divided into three parts. Part I, Operational Amplifiers, presents new technologies for the design of Op-Amps in both bipolar and CMOS technologies. Two papers demonstrate techniques for improving frequency and gain behavior at high voltage. Low voltage bipolar Op-Amp design is treated in another paper. The realization high-speed and high gain VLSI building blocks in CMOS is demonstrated in two papers. The final paper shows how to provide output power with CMOS buffer amplifiers. Part II, Analog-to-Digital Conversion, presents papers which address very high conversion speeds and very high resolution implementations using sigma-delta modulation architectures. Analog to Digital converters provide the link between the analog world of transducers and the digital world of signal processing and computing. High-performance bipolar and MOS technologies result in high-resolution or high-speed convertors which can be applied in digital audio or video systems. Furthermore, the advanced high-speed bipolar technologies show an increase in conversion speed into the gigahertz range. Part III, Analog Computer Aided Design, presents the latest research towards providing analog circuit designers with the tools needed to automate much of the design process. The techniques and methodologies described demonstrate the advances being made in developing analog design tools comparable with those already available for digital design. The papers in this volume are based on those presented at the Workshop on Advances in Analog Circuit Design held in Delft, The Netherlands in 1992. The main intention of the workshop was to brainstorm with a group of about 100 analog design experts on the new possibilities and future developments on the above topics. The result of this brainstorming is contained in Analog Circuit Design, which is thus an important reference for researchers and design engineers working in the forefront of analog circuit design and research.

Editorial Reviews

Review

`The authors are to be complimented for collecting, into a single reference, a lot of interesting information related to the above mentioned topics, particularly useful for data-acquisition system designers, RF engineers, and others.'

From the Back Cover

This book is part of the Analog Circuit Design series and contains the revised contributions of all speakers of the 16th AACD Workshop, which was organized by Jan Sevenhans of AMI Semiconductor and held in Oostende, Belgium on March 27-29, 2007. The book comprises 17 tutorial papers, divided in three chapters, each discussing a very relevant topic in present days analog design. Sensors, Actuators and Power Drivers for the Automotive and Industrial Environment - Chaired by Herman Casier, AMI Semiconductor Fellow, Belgium Integrated PA's from Wireline to RF - Chaired by Prof. Michiel Steyaert, Catholic University, Leuven Very High Frequency Front Ends - Chaired by Prof. Arthur van Roermund, Eindhoven University of Technology The aim of the AACD workshop is to bring together a group of expert designers to study and discuss new possibilities and future developments in the area of analog circuit design. The series provides a valuable overview of analog circuit design and related CAD, mainly in the fields of basic analog modules, mixed-signal electronics, AD and DA converters, RF systems and automotive electronics. It is a reference for whoever is engaged in these diciplines and wishes to keep abreast of the latest developments in the field. --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

This review is from: Analog Circuit Design: Structured Mixed-Mode Design, Multi-Bit Sigma-Delta Converters, Short Range RF Circuits (Hardcover)

I bought this book from Amazon. The book condition is good. But the quality of the book is really bad and the book is unreadable. Most of the figures are missing lines (either horizontal or vertical). Most of the equations are also missing lines and symbols. Has the publisher really done some edit work on it or just my bad luck? I don't know. Be careful when you order this book.
Since "analog circuit design" is a series, the book I mentioned is the 2002 version with ISBN:1-4020-7213 or 9781402072161
