2.0 out of 5 stars
Lots of discussion, very few formulas., March 15, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Principles of Data Conversion System Design (Hardcover)
Slightly disappointing overall.
This book does a good job discussing the basics for design and implementation of D/A and A/D converts. Don't expect to find much in the way of formulas, metrics for design/testing, derivations and examples.
As a text book for a senior D/A, A/D course it is not appropriate. It is useful for those who have a background in the design of a/d and d/a circuits and just want to understand what is it they are designing. A very good discussion (not really explanation) of theory.
Covers topics like sampling circuits, sample-and-hold architectures, basic principles of a/d, various building block circuits, precision techniques and some testing and characterization.
