Book Description

November 30, 1990 079239089X 978-0792390893 1
Analog Integrated Circuits for Communication: Principles, Simulation and Design, Second Edition covers the analysis and design of nonlinear analog integrated circuits that form the basis of present-day communication systems. Both bipolar and MOS transistor circuits are analyzed and several numerical examples are used to illustrate the analysis and design techniques developed in this book. Especially unique to this work is the tight coupling between the first-order circuit analysis and circuit simulation results. Extensive use has been made of the public domain circuit simulator Spice, to verify the results of first-order analyses, and for detailed simulations with complex device models. Highlights of the new edition include: A new introductory chapter that provides a brief review of communication systems, transistor models, and distortion generation and simulation. Addition of new material on MOSFET mixers, compression and intercept points, matching networks. Revisions of text and explanations where necessary to reflect the new organization of the book Spice input files for all the circuit examples that are available to the reader from a website. Problem sets at the end of each chapter to reinforce and apply the subject matter. An instructors solutions manual is available on the book's webpage at springer.com. Analog Integrated Circuits for Communication: Principles, Simulation and Design, Second Edition is for readers who have completed an introductory course in analog circuits and are familiar with basic analysis techniques as well as with the operating principles of semiconductor devices. This book also serves as a useful reference for practicing engineers.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not good, poorly organized., March 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I really don't like this book. It was the text for the Communications Circuits class I just took, so I had to use it, but I would not recommend it to anyone else.

Like most other Springer books, they seem to have taken what might have been a good text and cut it down so much that it's confusing and downright painful to read.

The one thing in particular that drives me nuts is that since the pages are so small and the book is so short, they frequently reference figures in the text that are as much as 5 pages before or after the actual text describing the figure, so you find yourself endlessly flipping pages. On top of this, most of the figures are SPICE simulations, and when they reference specific elements in a circuit, say "resistor 1", the figures don't even have labels on the elements- so you have to read the accompanying netlist to figure out which thing they are talking about.

Don't buy this. Springer sucks.

I think this book is the best for readers to see all the details about how to design practical analog circuit building block inside the latest transceiver in the mobile phones brandname such as Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola etc.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good 'workbook', November 15, 2001
This review is from: Analog Integrated Circuits for Communication: Principles, Simulation and Design (Hardcover)
For those who grew up with SPICE, a good entry point into methods for analyzing 'communication' circuits..
