System-level Techniques for Analog Performance Enhancement [Hardcover]

This book shows readers to avoid common mistakes in circuit design, and presents classic circuit concepts and design approaches from the transistor to the system levels. The discussion is geared to be accessible and optimized for practical designers who want to learn to create circuits without simulations.  Topic by topic, the author guides designers to learn the classic analog design skills by understanding the basic electronics principles correctly, and further prepares them to feel confident in designing high-performance, state-of-the art CMOS analog systems.  This book combines and presents all in-depth necessary information to perform various design tasks so that readers can grasp essential material, without reading through the entire book.  This top-down approach helps readers to build practical design expertise quickly, starting from their understanding of electronics fundamentals.Introduction.- Feedback.- Feedback Amplifiers.- Power Supplies and Regulators.- System Offset and Gain Corrections.- RF Sampled Data and Switching Techniques.- Opamp Gain and Nonlinearity Correction.- Image and Harmonic Rejection in Down Conversion.- System Performance Enhancement.Bang-Sup Song received the B.S. from the Seoul National University in 1973, the M.S.
from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science in 1975, and the Ph.D. from the University
of California, Berkeley in 1983. From 1975 to 1978, Dr. Song was a research staff at Agency for Defense Development, Korea working on fire-control radars and spread-spectrum communications. From 1983 to 1986, he was a member of technical staff at AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, and was also a visiting faculty member in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Rutgers University. From 1986 to 1999, he was a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Coordinated Science Laboratory, University of Illinois at Urbana. In 1999, he joined the faculty ols3
