Analog design

Can anyone recommend some good books on analog circuit design for audio, precision/low noise op.amp., emc, active filters and similar?

  • Art of Electronics by Horowitz and Hill - It's the masterpiece of circuit design. Broad but shallow. Start with it.
  • Analog Circuit Design by Jim Williams
  • Art of Linear Electronics by John Linsley Hood
  • Troubleshooting Analog Circuits by Bob Pease


Not necessarily books, but here are some web-based sources of great info:

  • Keithley Instruments publish a booklet of how to measure very small signals (fA,pA,pV,nV) and of very low and very high resistances (uOhm, TOhm). You can not buy the booklets only send a request for a free copy. The booklets try to show how measurements can be achieve with there devices which is fair enough for a free guide. Nevertheless, they give nice general background on many kinds of error sources and tips and tricks how to avoid them. Including general design and some PCB design recommendations. The booklets are not acadaemic... just a nice overview of different techniques to tackle different problems.

OpAmp Handbooks:

Digital design

Simulation

PCB design

I wonder, whehter there is any book about PCB design...

High Speed Digital Design: A Handbook of Black Magic by Johnson and Graham is a great text for anyone interested in signal integrity and EMI. It's no spring chicken, but PCB technology hasn't actually advanced much these last 16 years; it's just gotten cheaper and more available. I found the material very relevant to my designs in the 100 - 600MHz range.
