Fundamentals of analog circuits / Thomas L. Floyd, David Buchla.

Includes index.

Basic analog concepts -- Diodes and applications -- Bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) -- Field-effect transistors (FETs) -- Multisage, RF, and power amplifiers -- Operational amplifiers -- OP-AMP responses -- Basic Op-AMP circuits -- Active filters -- Oscillators and timers -- Voltage regulators -- Special-purpose amplifiers -- Communications circuits -- Data conversion circuits -- Measurement and control.

A textbook introducing discrete linear devices and circuits and describing operational amplifiers and other linear integrated circuits. One feature is that the circuit diagrams indicate current with a polarized meter symbol rather than arrows, both to reflect the readings from an ammeter and to specify the relative current magnitude. Radio-frequency amplifiers and transducers are also considered. Solutions to some of the end-of-section exercises are provided at the end of each chapter. The glossary does not indicate pronunciation. No bibliography. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
