Practical Analog And Rf Electronics by Daniel B. Talbot, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

This is a book about real-world techniques in designing analog circuits: amplifiers, filters, injection-locked oscillators, phase-locked loops, trans impedance amplifiers, group delay correction circuits, notch filters, and spectrum regrowth in digital RF transmitters, etc. The book offers practical solutions to analog and RF problems, helping the reader to achieve high performance circuit and system design. A variety of issues is covered such as:How to flatten group delay of filtersHow to use reciprocity to advantageHow to neutralize a parasitic capacitanceHow to deepen a notch by adding only two components to the networkHow to demodulate a signal using the secant waveform and its benefitHow to flatten the frequency response of a diode detectorWhen to use a transimpedance amplifier and how to maximize its performanceHow to recover NRZ data when AC coupling is requiredWhy phase noise corrupts adjacent communication channelsSimple method to prevent false locking in phase locked loopsHow to improve the bandwidth of amplification by using current conveyorsA very simple impedance matching technique requiring only one reactive componentHow to use optimizationQuadrature distortion and cross-rail interferenceThis book is meant to be a handbook (or a supplemental textbook) for students and practitioners in the design of analog and RF circuitry with primary emphasis on practical albeit sometimes unorthodox circuit realizations. Equations and behavioral simulations result in an abundance of illustrations, following a "words and pictures" easy-to-understand approach. Teachers will find the book an important supplement to a standard analog and RF course, or it may stand alone as a textbook. Working engineers may find it useful as a handbook by bookmarking some of the step-by-step procedures, e. g. the section on simplified impedance matching or group delay flattening. | Practical Analog And Rf Electronics by Daniel B.
