EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description

The Designer's Guide to High-Purity Oscillators presents a comprehensive theory and design methodology for the design of LC CMOS oscillators used in every wireless transmission system. The authors introduce the subject of phase noise and oscillators from the very first principles, and carry the reader to a very intuitive circuit-driven theory of phase noise in LC oscillators. The theory presented includes both thermal and flicker noise effects. Based on Hegazi, Rael, and Abidi's mechanistic theory, a sensible design methodology is gradually developed. In addition, new topologies that were recently published by the authors are discussed in detail and an optimal design methodology is presented. While the book focuses on intuition, it rigorously proves every argument to present a compact yet accurate model for predicting phase noise in LC oscillators. By so doing, the design of an LC oscillator can be handled in the same manner as an amplifier design.



CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 5 reviews)

The Source for CMOS VCO design  
This book is contains the essential information for designing low phase noise VCO's. It also contains the references to the prior work as well.

A great book  
this is a very well written book. it includes many explanations plus it reviews all the necessary basics too

A must read for anyone interested in oscillators  
Compared to other books on oscillators, this is a clear text including state-of-the art knowledge about operation of oscillators. Writing style is clear and to the point. Backed with theory that is understandable to the ordinary designer, authors skillfully guide reader to a how-to of actual desigins with practical specs.

for the design of MOS, fully integrated oscillators  
This book is a summary of the journal articles by the three authors. They have done a good job of rewriting them into a coherent, logically flowing book.

The title is misleading as the book deals exclusively with silicon MOS transistors and oscillator types that are suitable for integration including the passive parts.

If you make such circuits, this will be a good book for you. If you design BJT or JFET oscillators you will not find this book very useful.

More Information  
I was the editor for this book and I wanted to let you know that if you wished to find out more about it before your ordered it, you can go to its home page, which can be found at http://www.designers-guide.com/Books/. It contains considerably more information about the book, including excerpts.

I found this book to be the best I've seen on oscillator design. It is very practical while offering great insight to designers.
