--- Quote --- Paul and I are days away from turning in the manuscript on our new x-Chapters book, and I decided to add this and a few other cheap AC-to-DC-power circuits, for entertainment. So I created one with SPICE, ... --- End quote --- Let's hope that creeping featureitis doesn't intervene :) Source: that greybeards discussion group, https://groups.google.com/d/topic/sci.electronics.design/bQ5fG5FsUzw Discretion is advised; it is the good ole wild west over there :) |

Well that is just plain wonderful! I was just looking for something in AoE the other day and they referenced an X-chapter. |

Very occasionally I don't mind doing viral marketing. More tantalisation... --- Quote ---Read and comment. AoE x-Chapters, High-Speed op-amps section, DRAFT. Recall, the AoE x-Chapters are advanced material that was meant to come after each relevant chapter, can skip on a quick first read, go back later for detailed info. But as main book was growing over 2000 pages, we opted to bring out main book first, including x-Chapter cross refs, follow with x-Chapter book. As explained in the preface. 26 pages of good stuff, from new sections 4x.5 and 4x.6 Chapter 4x is to supplement H&H AoE III, chapters 4,5,8. (Full Chapter 4x is now 146 pages long, still growing.) DRAFT, but getting close to being complete. Are explanations excellent, good, OK, or confusing? Examine tables, any of your favorite parts missing?** Want a separate low-power table? Can we skip that? Is the CFB op-amp scene explained well enough? Did you like VFB scatterplots? Need some for CFB? Have a favorite trick that should be included? Make comments here or send to winfieldhill@yahoo.com https://www.dropbox.com/s/aemtyly16mtj87n/Op-amps_High-speed_ch4x_DRAFT.pdf?dl=0 ** For op-amps that come in multiple variants, i.e., single, dual, quad, we list only one part, and show # per pkg variants in next column, so you may not see your part, e.g., we show OPA192, not OPA2192 or OPA4192. As you can see, we were forced to economize on space. -- Thanks, - Win --- End quote --- |

The end of the tantalisation is in sight... --- Quote --- From: Winfield Hill Newsgroups: sci.electronics.design Subject: OT: milestone, the x-Chapters Date: 24 Jun 2019 03:38:40 -0700 Last night we handed over finished latex and eps files, for AoE The x-Chapters, to our long-suffering editor at CUP. Amazing stuff * went in during the last 10 days, plus I get to make submissions and corrections for maybe three more weeks, while the files are being processed. The draft pdf version has over 650 pages. * Hundreds of explorations and explanations of exotic engineering stuff you need to know. * A dozen varied examples of using power MOSFETs to solve difficult linear-circuit problems. * A neat TIA amplifier with an 8-decade dynamic range, 12-bit precision, not a log converter! Example use: a starlight to sunlight digitizer. * A true DC transformer. Keep your extra energy. * Control your piezo with charge, not voltage. * 1.2kV HV amplifier, with DC-to-1MHz range. * 100V 5A DC-10MHz 1000V/us power amplifier. * More light, pulse your LED at 200 amps. * Fast 1.5kV 2pF floating current source. * Hundreds of other cool things, too tired to type, need sleep. -- Thanks, - Win --- End quote --- Sample bits of it are floating around, if you know where to look, and it looks worth the wait. |

That seems to be very interesting! |
