This textbook is designed for graduate-level courses, and for self-study, in analog and sampled-data, including switched-capacitor, circuit theory and design for ongoing, or active electrical engineers, needing to become proficient in analog circuit design on a system, rather than on a device, level. After decades of experience in industry and teaching this material in academic settings, the author has extracted many of the most important and useful features of analog circuit theory and design and presented them in a manner that is easy to digest and utilize. The methodology and analysis techniques presented can be applied to areas well beyond those specifically addressed in this book. This book is meant to enable readers to gain a 'general knowledge' of one aspect of analog engineering (e.g., that of network theory, filter design, system theory and sampled-data signal processing). The presentation is self-contained and should be accessible to anyone with a first degree in electrical engineering.

Cutting-edge techniques for designing analog filters and circuits With an emphasis on using operational amplifiers as key building blocks, Analog Filter and Circuit Design Handbook shows how to create working circuits that perform a variety of analog functions. Numerous circuit examples provide mathematical functions on analog signals in both a linear and nonlinear manner. The highly efficient elliptic-function filter response is featured throughout the book. Audio applications, such as audio power amplifiers and cross-over networks, are discussed, and both voltage and current feedback amplifiers are covered. This practical guide also analyzes the impact of nonideal amplifiers and addresses waveform shaping and generation.

A textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate students introducing microwave filter design and the circuit theory and network synthesis that are necessary to it. A variety of design theories are presented followed by specific examples with numerical simulations of the designs and when possible pictures of real devices. c. Book News Inc.

This authoritative resource presents current practices for the design of RF and microwave filters. This one-stop reference provides readers with essential and practical information in order to design their own filter design software package, ultimately saving time and money. Essential building blocks for each type of filter are presented including network theory, transmission lines, and coupling mechanisms. This book presents a detailed discussion of the Low Pass Filter prototype, which is then extended to other configurations such as high pass, band pass, band stop, diplexers, and multiplexers. Microwave Network Theory and Transmission Line Coupling Mechanisms are presented along with a comprehensive discussion of the characteristics of commonly used transmission lines such as waveguides, Striplines, and Microstrip lines. Numerous design examples are presented to demonstrate an inclusive design methodology.

Linear Network Theory presents the problems of linear network analysis and synthesis. This book discusses the theory of linear electrical circuits, which is important for developing the scientific outlook of specialists in radio and electrical engineering. Organized into 13 chapters, this book begins with an overview of circuit theory that operates with electrical quantities, including voltage, charge, and current. This text then examines sinusoidal function as the predominant form of a periodic process in electrical circuits. Other chapters consider the reduction of a series–parallel network to single equivalent impedance, which is one of the main forms of converting circuit diagrams often used in practice. The final chapter deals with the Laplace transformation or operational calculus, which is a combination of methods of mathematical analysis. This book is intended to be suitable for students in the specialized branches of electrical and radio engineering, post-graduates, and engineers extending their theoretical knowledge.

Handbook of Filter Synthesis, originally published in 1967 is the classic reference for continuous time filter design. The plots of filter behaviour for different designs, such as ripple and group delay, make this book invaluable. The discussion of how to synthesize a bandpass, bandpass, or bandstop filter from a lowpass prototype is also very useful.
