Abstract The lessons from the previous chapters are here applied to a very brief discussion of numerical techniques. First we show how to calculate the capacitance of three-dimensional structures; we…

Abstract Basic amplifier stages are described in a somewhat cursory fashion. We use circuits that are familiar to most readers and present the analysis in a way that conforms to…

Abstract The estimation analysis method is described in the context of sophisticated amplifiers. The purpose is to convince the reader of the usefulness of the technique by whetting their appetite…

Abstract The estimation analysis method or more commonly referred to in everyday use as hand calcualtions is described here, where a systematic approach including a “feedback” loop to ensure correctness…
