Computer-aided symbolic circuit analysis is useful in analog  integrated circuit design. Analytic expressions for the network  transfer functions contain information that is not provided by a  numerical simulation result. However, these expressions are generally  extremely long and difficult to interpret; therefore, it is necessary  to be able to approximate them guided by the magnitude of the  individual circuit parameters. \u003cbr\u003e  Engineering has been described as `the art of making approximations'.  The inclusion of symbolic analysis in analog circuit design reduces  the implied risk of ambiguity during the approximation process. A  systematic method based on the nullor concept is used to obtain the  basic feedback transistor amplifier configurations. Approximate  expressions for the locations of poles and zeros for linear networks  are obtained using the extended pole-splitting technique. An unusual  feature in \u003cem\u003eSymbolic Analysis in Analog Integrated Circuit Design\u003c\/em\u003e  is the consistent use of the transadmittance element with finite  (linear or nonlinear) or infinite (i.e. nullor) gain as the only  requisite circuit element. The describing function method is used to  obtain approximate symbolic expressions for the harmonic distortion  generated by a soft or hard transconductance nonlinearity embedded in  an arbitrary linear network. The design and implementation of a  program (i.e. CASCA) for symbolic analysis of time-continuous networks  is described. The algorithms can also be used to solve other linear  problems, e.g. the analysis of time-discrete switched-capacitor  networks. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eSymbolic Analysis in Analog Integrated Circuit Design\u003c\/em\u003e serves as  an excellent resource for students and researchers as well as for  industry designers who want to familiarize themselves with circuit  analysis. This book may also be used for advanced courses on the  subject.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1997-07-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792399698\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-6211-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 165\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578389717132,"sku":"9780792399698","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792399698.jpg?v=1771510984","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792399698","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
