Books in the EDN Series for Design Engineers series

A tool kit for successful RF circuit design, this work contains practical design information based on years of experience from authors who have worked with the leading manufacturers of RF components. It focuses primarily on the more difficult area of high power transistor amplifier design and construction.

Provides a practical design guide to design effective and working electronic filters. This book contains questions at the end of each chapter and includes electronic simulation tools. It also presents background information and equations, and keeps heavy mathematics to a minimum.

Shows how to design and experiment with IC amplifiers. This work provides information to design and build IC amplifier circuits from 'scratch'. It also presents a variety of circuit configurations to make designing easier, and gives basics for the various phases of practical design. It includes information on amplifier ICs and related components.

Based on familiar circuit theory and basic physics, this book serves as a reference for both analog and digital engineers alike, particularly for those who work with analog RF. It covers topics using conceptual explanations and over 150 figures, in place of complex mathematics.

Covers the basics of power electronics theory and components while emphasizing modern low-power components and applications. This book also includes power semiconductors, converters, power supplies, batteries, protection systems, and power ICs.

A step-by-step guide to designing filters using off-the-shelf ICs. This book starts with the basic operating principles of filters and common applications, then moves on to describe how to design circuits by using and modifying chips. It stresses on practical, simplified approaches to solving design problems.

Teaches engineers, technicians, and students to use and modify off-the-shelf ICs to suit their individual design needs. This book describes the basic operation of microprocessor supervisory circuits and how to use manufacturer data sheets to make your component selections. It also describes the internal operations of commonly-available ICs.

Provides a step-by-step approach to micropower and supply cell circuit design. This book concentrates on the use of commercial micropower ICs by discussing selections of external components that modify the IC-package characteristics. It also describes minimal theory and mathematics, as well as operation of all circuits.

Shows how to design and experiment with V/F converters, both voltage-to-frequency and frequency-to-voltage. This book describes converter-circuit designs, and also covers the most popular forms of VFC ICs available. It provides information on VFC ICs and related components, including how to test and troubleshoot completed circuits.

Shows how to design and experiment with data converters, both analog-to-digital and digital to analog. This book covers design problems which start with guidelines for selecting all components on a trial-value basis, assuming a specific design goal and set of conditions. It is intended for working engineers.

A guide to switching power-supply design, which concentrates on the use of IC regulators. It describes the popular forms of switching supplies, including DC-DC converters, inverters, buck, boost, buck-boost, pulse frequency modulation, pulse width modulation, current-mode control and pulse skipping.

A companion to "Analog Circuit Design: Art, Science, and Personalities", this volume presents viewpoints on subjects related to analog circuit design. It includes visualizing operation of analog circuits. It also describes troubleshooting for optimum circuit performance, and demonstrates how to produce a saleable product.
