Product Description
Description:

Building on basics of Electronics Circuit Design, David and Donald Comers new text, Advanced Electronic Circuit Design, extends their highly focused, applied approach into the second and third semesters of the electronic circuit design sequence. This new text covers more advanced topics such as oscillators, power stages, digital/analog converters, and communications circuits such as mixers, and detectors. The text also includes technologies that are emerging.

Advanced Electronic Circuit Design focuses exclusively on MOSFET and BJT circuits, allowing students to explore the fundamental methods of electronic circuit analysis and design in greater depth. Each type of circuit is first introduced without reference to the type of device used for implementation. This initial discussion of general principles establishes a firm foundation on which to proceed to circuits using the actual devices.

Features:

1. Provides concise coverage of several important electronic circuits that are not covered in a basics textbook.

2. Focuses on MOSFET and BJT circuits, rather than offering exhaustive coverage of a wide range of devices and circuits.

3. Includes an Important Concepts summary at the beginning of each section that direct the readers attention to these key points.

4. Includes several Practical Considerations sections that relate developed theory to practical circuits.

FEATURES

Provides concise coverage of several important electronic circuits that are not covered in a basics textbook
Covers such timely topics as communication circuits (chapters 7-9) and mixed-signal interface circuits (digital-analog conversion) (Chapter 10)
Presents a detailed treatment of high-power output stages (Chapters 2-3)
Focuses on MOSFET and BJT circuits, rather than offering exhaustive coverage of a wide range of devices and circuits
Important Concepts summaries at the beginning of each section direct your attention to key points
Practical Considerations sections throughout the text relate developed theory to the actual practice of circuit design
interactive illustrations on the text's Companion Web Site demonstrate many difficult concepts, such as problems of distortion and nonlinear behavior

Reader Reviews
This book was used with alot of teacher generated handouts and with using an existing textbook I had already owned. This was for a senior course in electronics with topics needed to build basic RF circuitry. This does not cover microwave electronics more VHF and UHF. Microwave electronics takes more things into account. Use of this book is suggested with a good teacher. I could not find any single book in our libraries or other local collegian libraries on the subject. Everyone wants to go straight to microwave this is one of the few collections about non microwave design that I was able to find. I wish it could be better. Comment | | (Report this)
