Book Review
Linear Circuit Design Handbook, Edited by Hank Zumbahlen, Newnes, February 2008 , ISBN 978-0-7506-8703-4
Effective analog circuit design requires a strong understanding of linear devices. Linear Circuit Design Handbook bridges the gap between component theory and practical circuit design. Providing complete coverage of analog components and showing how to use them effectively, it serves as a useful reference for engineers involved in analog and mixed-signal design.
